Plot

Main article:The Scion of Light/Script

Six months have passed since the death of DukeDryas and the retreat fromUlster. Leif's Liberation Army has been defending Leonster from the Empire's siege under GeneralBaráth, but the Empire has gradually taken the fortress piece by piece, driving Leif's forces into the castle's last corner.

GeneralReinhardt of Friege meets with Baráth's forces outside of Leonster to report on developments in western Thracia. He informs Baráth that the rebel forces ofSeliph have taken overMelgen and defeated PrinceIshtore and LadyLiza. He also informs Baráth that KingBloom is dissatisfied with Baráth's failure to capture Leonster, and urges the general to act quickly, warning him that there will be negative consequences if he does not. Reinhardt then departs, and Baráth orders an all-out assault on Leonster.

Leif's forces try to hold out against the enemy until Seliph's army arrives. They eventually succeed in defending the castle long enough for Baráth's forces to retreat.Diarmuid, Seliph's emissary, arrives at Leonster to inform Leif and August that Seliph has besieged Ulster and that the fortress will fall within a few days, which is why the forces besieging Leonster were forced to retreat.

IfNanna is alive and uncaptured, Diarmuid then meets with her and informs her of the fate of their mother,Lachesis, claiming thatLewyn ofSilesse from Seliph's army told him. Lachesis allegedly vanished while trying to get to Isaach, but she is still alive somewhere. Diarmuid promises Nanna that once the war is over, they will look for their mother. Then Diarmuid asks Leif if he can join his army, and Leif agrees.
