What Lies Beneath/Script
Byleth and their companions make their way to the main residential district ofAbyss and speak with the residents there. Afterwards,Yuri approaches them, explains that he has lured the invading mercenaries into an ambush, and asks them to aid in defeating them. The group travels to the ambush point, an underground arena, and engage the mercenaries in battle. During the fight, theDeath Knight appears and begins attacking both sides indiscriminately, but the heroes nevertheless prevail.
After the battle, a lone straggler makes a final attempt to kill Yuri, but he is rescued byAelfric, overseer of Abyss. Aelfric introduces himself to the surface-dwellers and explains that Abyss is a refuge for those who have nowhere else to go, such as persecuted minorities and the sick and elderly. He asks Byleth to take theAshen Wolves under their wing, reveals that he was once acquainted with Byleth's parents, and offers to share stories of them later on.
