Episode Title:
Reinforcements and a Bittersweet First Deployment
Episode Description:
Lutoroute, assuming the war has strained the alliance between Hubareck and Kadlececk, decides to deepen their conflict by targeting Squale, since his death as Petra’s fiancé and Kadlececk’s heir will be devastating to both families. As there is nothing he can do himself Pastry focuses on the farms but learns the noble Baron Lunzvage forcibly bought his goats from the trader before they could be delivered. Lunzvage is notorious for bullying less noble families, but due to the war requiring food supplies it is not practical to lodge a complaint over mis-sold goats. Pastry and Casserole realise they can get the goats back and help the war by volunteering as reinforcements for Hubareck, gaining priority access to war supplies, and depart to the front lines. As a noble Squale does the honourable thing and joins the front line as well but is sent to a less dangerous area by Hubareck to ensure his survival. Lutoroute, having predicted this, sends a large force to wait for Squale. Casserole and Pastry also figure this out and arrive just in time to save Squale from the ambush.
