Objectives
1 Given the time limit and the small size of your team, you will need to split everyone up to cover as much ground as possible.
Focus on sending characters with advantages to make the battles quicker.
2 You can also take over the Strongholds to decrease the number of enemies in the vicinity, but do not keep all characters too far from the initial stronghold as it will be attacked.
3 Optional: A citizen is missing an item and will need you to check the strongholds. Luckily, these areas are close to the main objective.
Use this opportunity to defeat more enemies for S-Rank!
4 Once you have defeated enemies, Ladislava and a Pegasus Knight will appear, along with optional enemies: A Priest and Mage. Take on the Pegasus Rider and Mage first as a group or send Shez to the next Stronghold to clear the way to Ladislava.
5 Beware the magic attacks. As long as the Mage and Priest are still alive, area of effect attacks will damage you and your allies if you get too close.
6 After defeating the Pegasus Knight, focus all your attention on the Priest before attacking Ladislava! The Priest will need to die first for the Side Quest.
7 Once the Priest is gone, you can unleash all your abilities on Ladislava. Defeating her will end the Sidequest!
