A/N: So I finally got around to finishing Verdant Wind, and guess who Claude called his retainer? I would've made a Dimitri one but Azure Moon doesn't have the best retainer Nardel or the best General Nader...

Edelgard: So you claim to be my retainer…

Nardel in a Hubert Costume: Of course, Master Edelgard! It is I, your loyal retainer Nardel! My house has faithfully served your's for over 1000 years!

Edelgard: And you most definitely aren't the Almyran General Nader the Undefeated who we defeated twice.

Nardel: Those don't count since I made a strategic retreat!

Edelgard: Guards!
