We're done with the Courageous II, so now it's time to explore the rest of Erebonia. I visit Dreknor Fortress, and we're actually welcomed inside now. Turns out Zechs is here visiting General Craig and Neithardt. We're informed that the 3rd Division is to head to the frontlines through North Ambria and the 4th Division through Liberl, and they're to overcome any resistance they met with force. Neithardt urges us to stop the war before this happens. It was nice to have Elliot in the party for this one because we get some extra dialogue with his dad.
The Bobcat II is parked outside the gate that leads to Hamel, and Josette is talking to Estelle, Joshua, and Agate. They wanted to pay their respects at Hamel before everything goes down, but we need Tita and Ash in the party first, so I run back to the Courageous to get them. Then we have to hunt down Renne in Crossbell (I'm guessing she's there to meet Harold and his family), so I guess I'll head there next!
