The first chapter of the split will be on Eirika's route.
Before the chapter begins, I gave the Angelic Robe to Natasha to make hits less frightening.
Ross begins by crossing the water to the other side of the pier, ORK Oing the Pirate with his Hatchet and receiving an Ocean Seal. Meanwhile, Eirika, Neimi, and Natasha took the long way around. Once Ross reached the other side, he was swarmed and had to take several turns to heal with an Elixir. Thankfully, his presence distracted one of the Pirates
The western village couldn't be saved, but Ross managed to receive another Rapier from the other one in the middle of the melee. Around that time, Eirika's group was just getting past the Myrmidon on the western end, who dropped a Killing Edge. Since there were no nearby enemies, Eirika rushed up to Amelia and recruited her.
When all hope seemed lost for Ross against several Mercenaries, the other group came along saving his life. Only Binks remained. He was killed by 2 hits from Eirika's Iron Sword, followed by 2 hits from Ross's Hand Axe, and one hit from Neimi's Iron Bow.
