To liberate the people of the Western Isles once and for all, Jin headed for Jutes, the Isles' largest city. The Etrurian capital was located there. Lord Arcard, the supervisor of the mining operation on the Isles, resided in Jutes. According to Elffin, Arcard was of high birth, but he held no importance in the Etrurian court. Jin was still worried about Etruria's response to his attacking the capital, but he had no choice if he was going to rescue the people.

(A Wyvern Lord appears from the stairs and approaches the throne.)

Arcard: S-S... Sir Flaer!

Flaer: Lord Arcard. Why do you fret so?

Arcard: It's the Lycian Army! They come for my blood!

Flaer: Yes, they have been a thorn in Bern's side for some time... We knew it would be difficult if they became too friendly with Etruria. That's why we had you send them here. It seems, however, they fight even better than expected.

Arcard: You don't understand the gravity of this situation! Do you realize how much I've lost thanks to their meddling? All the riches I've gotten from these islands are gone! ...And on top of that, now they want my life! Once they arrive, my legacy is finished! My hands are shaking. I don't know what to do...

Flaer: My, how you worry. I suggest you flee to Etruria.

Arcard: You will allow it?

Flaer: Warfare is Bern's strong suit. We also have our secret weapon ready to brandish. With it we shall erase the Lycian Army once and for all.

Arcard: But...

Flaer: Lord Arcard. Once Bern and Etruria join forces, we will have nobody to fear. Am I wrong?

Arcard: No... No! You're right. I leave them to you.

(Arcard leaves the map.)

Flaer: Hmph, cowardly Etrurian nobles. If we defeat the Lycian Army here, the Isles shall be ours...

(At the Lycian Army's side.)

Jin: This is the capital... Once we take it, we can finally go home.

(A Battle begins. 1 minute passes. a Manakete appears from the stairs and approaches the throne.)

Flaer: Ah, there you are, Ain.

Ain: You called...?

Flaer: I will make a report about the Lycian Army to General Narcian. I want you to defend the castle while I am away.

Ain: ...Understood.

Flaer: Hm? Who's there?! … Just the wind...? Ahem. I will take my leave now. I leave them to your discretion.

Aine ...Understood.

Flaer: Ha ha… The Lycian Army will hardly be able to stand against this dragon. Normal weapons won't even scratch it's skin. These manaketes… They certainly are terrifying beasts.

(Outside the chamber.)

Raigh: So that's what the "unhuman" is. Bern really has brought dragons into this world. ...What to do now...? I guess I'll pose as a soldier and observe the dragon's power.

(Raigh heads to the westernmost part of the map. 7 minutes pass. Cath appears from the north.)

Cath: La la la la la, la la la la la… All the way out here in the Isles West, folks work to death for nobles in their nest! This castle's sure to be brimming with treasure! All this loot was stolen anyway. Might as well take it off these nobles' hands.

(10 minutes pass.)

Soldier: The reinforcements from the south will arrive shortly!

Ain: ...

Soldier: ...Th-that's all, sir. (Ain leaves.) Soldier: That guy gives me the chills...

(A few minutes pass. Jin Seizes the throne and ends the battle.)

Jin: That was not an easy battle... The dragons' power is truly... Horrific.

Elffin: An unhuman... Now I understand.

Jin: How many of these dragons does Bern have...? How can we be expected to be victorious against monsters like these?!

Elffin: Lord Jin! Keep a level head.

Jin: Ah...

Elffin: ...I understand your worries. But if you panic, that feeling will spread to the army. You must remember that.

Jin: ...I'm sorry.

Elffin: It is a perfectly understandable reaction after a fight like that. But... we also gained knowledge that we did not have before.

Jin: What knowledge is that?

Elffin: Don't you remember? I told you Arcard was rumored to be working with Bern.

Jin: Oh, that's right! If Bern's dragons are in an Etrurian castle...

Elffin: Arcard has indeed made a deal with Bern.

Jin: ...That means Lycia is in danger... We must return to the mainland. We have to contact General Cecilia and conceive a plan...

Elffin: Lord Jin, before returning to the mainland, there is a matter to take care of.

Jin: More bandits?

Elffin: No, thankfully. A legendary weapon is hidden in a cave not far from here. If we obtain it, we can fight the dragons more effectively.

Jin: A legendary weapon... You're right! If we can get all eight of them, we might have a chance of defeating Bern!

Elffin: Yes... We must find as many as we can.

Jin: Then let's go to the cave and get it!
