コヴナント卿が率いる虐げられた農民の軍隊は、闇のガイ・デュブランが指揮するリヴァレン卿の軍隊と戦場で出会う。戦いは流血に生み、ヘルスポーンは戦いの終わりを宣言した。その後、リヴァレン男爵はヘルスポーンと会い、男爵の妻でありコヴナント卿の妹であるEloiseが亡くなったことを彼に伝えられる。妹が亡くなったことに意気消沈したヘルスポーンは農民を先導した戦いを「馬鹿らしい十字軍だ」と詰り、偉大な世界のなかで自分の運命を探し当てるために一人でRhyllの地を立ち去る。
だが、ヘルスポーンは自分に息子がいることを知らなかった。そのため、Cogliostroがその息子に真の十字架の遺物を与えたことに気づいていなかった。
