"How long until we return home, George?" Chrom asked the tactician,

"Around midnight.." George responded, "We still need to pass the plains and the river.."

"Very well.." Chrom said, "We have to get there in time to that village ball or whatnot... Cynthia begged me to accompany her."

"Ha! That's the curse of having a girl!" George laughed, "I can tell you the same!"

"Inigo... Please rest." Kjelle told the hero, "You have been walking non stop!"

"I may rest physically, Kjelle, but without Lucina, my soul will never be at rest..." Inigo responded,

"You really do love her..." Kjelle muttered softly to herself, with a slight hint of disdain.

"I do..." Inigo said, "And I cannot rest until she is safe!".

The two continued to travel until they stumbled upon a clue on the trail in which they were traveling,

"It is one of Lucina's boots!" Kjelle observed, "They must have passed through here!"

"Look!" Inigo pointed to a part of the brush which was pushed down, "They went off the trail!"

"Then let's go!" Kjelle said and the two carefully made their way off the trail.

"Where... Where am I?" Lucina mumbled as she awoke, only to see she was in a cave only lit by torches.

"You are right where I want you..." a low voice said, revealing itself to be a Plegian mage,

"Why... Why did you take me!?" Lucina yelled and struggled to get free from her ropes,

"I need the blood of an exalt to summon Risenius!" the mage said,

"Risenius!?" Lucina said,

"The king of all Risen!" the mage spat, "I will use him to destroy that pesky Chrom and his men! When they destroyed my temple to Grima, I swore my revenge, and now I can accomplish it!"

"You sick monster!" Lucina cried, "My friends will come and save me!"

"Where those your friends last night!? Hah! If they can barely hold off a group of stupid Risen, they aren't even going to be able to touch me!" the mage laughed, "Now if you'll excuse me... I have some important business to take care of..."

"Why don't you just rest?" Kjelle groaned, "I'm tired, my horse is tired..."

"Kjelle, if you're going to complain and groan all the way, why did you come!?" Inigo blurted,

"Well... I... Shut up!" Kjelle retorted,

"Ha ha!" Inigo laughed, "Don't worry Kjelle, I know why you wanted to follow me! It is so obvious! You fancy me!"

"I do not!" Kjelle yelled,

"Do too.." Inigo teased.

"Do not!" Kjelle continued, "You're a fool and weak! I can pummel you to the ground if I wanted to!"

"Then why don't you?" Inigo asked, only to get a red face from the great knight,

"Because.. I... Graa! Just keep walking!" Kjelle yelled, "The more you do the faster we can save that stupid Lucina!"

"Ooh... Jealous much?" Inigo chuckled, "Don't worry Kjelle, you were definitely my second choice."

"Why you!" Kjelle yelled and started to chase him on horseback, Inigo just laughed away.
