- ↑"Filat: Lord Sigurd, your performance in this battle was outstanding. His Majesty is highly pleased, and has thus proclaimed you ordination as a paladin of the realm.
Sigurd: I hardly deserve such an honor, sir! I pledge my undying fealty to His Majesty.
Filat: From here, it is imperative that you hold Evans. We can ill afford to lose such a valuable defensive point to the enemy. You and your men shall be handsomely paid for your service. Provided, of course, that our territory survives unscathed. Best of luck, Lord Sigurd. Grannvale expects every man to do his duty." — Filat andSigurd at theending of the prologue,Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War - ↑"Filat: Nasty rumors have emerged of late in the royal court... and they concern you. The rumors claim that, in concert with Quan of Leonster and Eldigan of Nordion, you are conspiring against the crown. This, it is said, is why you are harboring the prince of Isaach in your ranks.
Sigurd: What?! That's absurd! Who in the world could've started such nonsense...
Filat: Chancellor Reptor and Duke Lombard.
Sigurd: I see... I should have known, knowing their disdain for my father. Yet, to take that grudge so far..

Filat: It seems there is indeed, from what we've heard. We expect the triumphant return of the prince and your father any day now.

Sigurd: Really? Why did he never marry this person?
Filat: Well... Perhaps I ought to tell you the complete tale. This happened some twenty years ago. Prince Kurth had an affair with the duchess of Velthomer, a truly lovely woman as I recall. Duke Victor of Velthomer was... Well, he was a philanderer of the worst degree, and had countless lovers. The prince, of course, is nothing like him. He wished only to support the duchess at first, but the two soon fell deeply in love. Victor was distraught, needless to say. He penned a letter denouncing the pair, then he took his own life. The duchess could bear to stay no longer. She fled Grannvale and was never seen again. As I recall, her name was Cigyun.
