The Value of Life/Script

Introduction

“	Hector gains the upper hand in the battle of Valor. Taking the lead, Hector moves straight toward the Dragon's Gate. Before his eyes, eerie ruins appear. What could they be? Are they connected to Nergal? If they overlook any enemy lurking within, they could be attacked from the rear. Without pause, they open the rusty steel door and step inside...	”

Opening

(Kishuna teleports onto the throne)

Kishuna: ............

Nergal: ...What do you want, monster? You can't fight... You can't harvest quintessence... Powerless and frail, you're naught but a false puppet, a pale imitation. Is this all I was capable of creating in the past...this fool? Absolutely worthless. You are my blunder, my failed morph... You are of no use to me. Go somewhere and rot away into dust.

Kishuna: ............

If neither Chapters 23x nor 19x were played

Hector: More of them!
Lyn: There are still some morphs left? So this must be Nergal's doing, too.
Nils: Hey, Lord Hector! There's a strange power moving through this area.
Hector: What do you mean "strange"?
Nils: I'm not sure but... Something's power is disrupting the energy around here. I don't think we're going to be able to use magic here.
Eliwood: Magic... So does that mean staves are useless, too?
Nils: Uh... Probably...
Lyn: Hector, they're moving.
Hector: I don't know who they are, but it looks like they're after a fight. Show them no mercy! Let's go!

If Chapter 23x was not played and Chapter 19x was

Hector: More of them!
Lyn: There are still some morphs left? So this must be Nergal's doing, too.
Nils: Hey, Lord Hector! There's a strange power moving through this area.
Hector: What do you mean "strange"?
Nils: I'm not sure but...
Eliwood: Don't you remember, Hector? That strange feeling that made us all irritable and uneasy? We've felt it once before.
Hector: When was that?
Eliwood: In the ruins near the Dragon's Gate. It felt a little odd, and suddenly, there was that area where all magic was suppressed... Nullified.
Hector: Ah, now I remember. That time Lyn and I got into it over my armor, right?
Eliwood: That's it. What is that thing? We know it's not human, but...
Nils: Something's happening. It's a very powerful emotion, filling this area. It's......sorrow?
Lyn: Hector, they're moving.
Hector: I don't know who they are, but it looks like they're after a fight. Show them no mercy! Let's go!

If Chapter 23x was played

Hector: More of them!
Lyn: There are still some morphs left? So this must be Nergal's doing, too.
Nils: Hey, Lord Hector! It's that weird power again... Like in the ruins below the desert. That area where magic was nullified.
Hector: A magic seal? Here?
Eliwood: Hector, what are you talking about? What's a magic seal?
Hector: I don't know... I don't know too much about it.
Nils: What's going on? It feels different than last time. In the desert, its energy felt so hostile... Now, it feels more like...sorrow?
Lyn: Hector, they're moving.
Hector: I don't know who they are, but it looks like they're after a fight. Show them no mercy! Let's go!

In battle

Player phase of turn 1, if Mark is present and Renault is deployed

Renault: You... Your name is, Mark, isn't it? I'll wager you don't trust me. You think I look shady, don't you? Don't let it bother you. It's the truth... Mark... Nergal is powerful. But he is still human, and these morphs were made by that same human... Victory is not impossible. ...I know this to be true.

Ending

If both Chapters 19x and 23x were played

Eliwood: The barrier's gone...
Hector: We beat it. But what was it? We saw it here once before, and then under the desert. Was that the same creature?
Eliwood: After that final blow, its body crumbled into dust.
Lyn: Yeah. That's the same thing that happened to those morphs.
Hector: So this thing... This magic seal was a morph, too? But it didn't look anything like the rest of them.
Nils: But it was still a morph. When it died... I heard its voice call out... It called out a name... Nergal. Did you hear its voice? Sorrow... It was filled with a terrible sorrow.
Eliwood: ......

Regardless of the chapters played

Hector: Everybody, are you ready? Once we get through here, it's on to the Dragon's Gate and the final battle! Here we go! Time to crush Nergal's ambitions!!
