Lord Douglas!
Percival. We fight together again. Though it looks like this time, I am fighting in shame.
Please, Lord Douglas. You only did your duty as an Etrurian General. There is nothing to be ashamed about.
...
We are honored to be able to fight by your side once again. I'm sure the other Etrurians among us feel the same way.
Thank you... Your words are encouraging.
Let us fight together for the future of Etruria!

Percival, how do you fare?
I could be doing better. How about you, Lord Douglas?
I am trying my best, but...it seems I am losing the strength I used to have. I suppose I cannot beat my age.
Nonsense. You are living up to the title of the Great General, Lord Douglas. You still have a long ways to go yet.
I hope so.
Is there something on your mind?
No, that's not the case...
A Support
Percival. It might be a bit early to say this, but...
Yes?
I am thinking of retiring as the Great General after this war.
What!? Then the highest position in the Etrurian military would be empty!
I want you to take my place.
I am still young, Lord Douglas. I cannot assume such a position...
You are young? Then what about our commander, Roy? He is much younger than you, and he is leading all of us.
Yes, but...
The youths will not grow if old veterans keep hogging their positions. Percival, you are intelligent, strong, and a fine leader. Besides, once the prince returns, the king will step down from the throne as well.
Lord Douglas! Those in service must not talk about the inheritance of the throne...
It is all right. I have been serving the king for decades now. I know him better than anybody. I am sure that once he learns of the prince's survival, he will give the throne to him without hesitation.
...
We must rebuild Etruria alongside our new king. Etruria will be reborn again with the help from you young ones. I will be counting on you, Percival.
...I shall swear my life to it.

Lord Douglas!
Cecilia.
Why didn't you tell me? I knew you were alive, but I never thought you were here with us.
Yes... Here I am, living in shame.
Nonsense, you are a great asset to us all. It is an honor to fight alongside you once again. Let us show the continent the power of the Etrurian Generals!
Hm... It's not like you to be so confident.
My courage is coming from you, Lord Douglas. You have always been my goal, and still are.

The former Sorcery General wanted you as his successor... But it looked like you had many enemies at first.
Yes, I won't deny that. Being a female general was enough to turn people against me. I spent most of my earlier days fighting against prejudice.
To be honest, I was unsure of your abilities as first, too.
Yes, I know. Every time you told me, 'You're weak, you don't know how to fight,' I would bury my nose in my spell books all night.
That's just like you. Well, it's no wonder you were holding a grudge against me.
Oh? I never held a grudge against you, Lord Douglas. Do you remeber that time?
What time?
The day I enlisted, the other young generals were teasing me about my gender. But you defended me, saying, 'She's stronger than you all.'
...I'm afraid I don't remember.
That's all right. I remember perfectly.
A Support
Cecilia.
Yes, Lord Douglas?
I must thank you. You've helped out an old, worthless soldier like me.
...What are you...
Whenever I fight, I can feel my age... Aged soldiers are of no use. My time has ended. It is now up to you to lead Etruria to a bright future.
...I've never heard you say something so silly, Lord Douglas.
...
A bright future for Etruria? You can talk about that after we win. Even if we do win this war, we have much to worry about. We must rebuild our land and regain other nations' trust. Etruria's future comes after all that.
Hm...
And you're going to put all that responsibility on us, while you take it easy? I don't think so, Lord Douglas.
...You really have grown more confident.
It is thanks to you. Now, if you feel defeated, why don't you be of some use?
Hm...very well. I suppose I can't be outdone by you amateurs yet. Sigh...
Of course, Lord Douglas.
Pent, seriously, what the fuck. Those people weren't giving you shit for being female, Cecilia. They were voicing their objections because you are a terrible unit.
