The Ballad of Adler Young, Canto 2.5

>Adler: Assure him that while there are certain unscrupulous entities that would somewhat benefit from your success, they are no true allies of yours and they will get what's coming to them when you get your say.
>Brother Matthias: Inform Adler that MacBrock is completely uninjured. In fact, all the "dead" soldiers are fine. They're just being dramatic. All the shrub's weapons are Vulpitinian prank fake weapons.
>Shrub Knights: Join Adler on the realization that someone either tampered with your weapons or sent you out here to be killed.
>Thomson: "Accidentally" bump into Burnside causing her to fall over again.
