As Tir is working on his mission in this fort, I am standing still, waiting for a command from Mathiu. But actually, I want to carry out my own mission, so I look around.

Flik is looking away... Good! Nobody is noticing.

I turn to Mathiu, who is still waiting for Tir. I know that this tactician isn't anticipating my plan, so I pull out my dirk and walk towards him without making any sound.

This is wrong; I know that, but… Lord Barbarossa… Victory is yours soon!

My thoughts boost my will to kill. In a flash, I thrust my dirk into Mathiu's back, drawing out crimson fluid as I pull it back.

As I watch him collapsing, I think, I'm sorry, Tir and Mathiu. I'm part of your army, but I'm still faithful to Lord Barbarossa.
