B1CH00 Prologue
===============================================================================
In the distant past, the continent of Akaneia was invaded by the Durhua Empire,
led by the Mamkute King, Mediuth.
The people lived in fear and despair.
The Holy Kingdom of Akaneia, which had always guarded the world, was also
destroyed by the horrific power of the Dark Dragon.
The world was facing ruin.
However... A miracle occurred.
Anri was a youth from the town of Aritia.
He went on a perilous journey to obtain the divine sword of light, Falchion.
And used it challenge and defeat the Dark Dragon, Mediuth.
With Mediuth's fall, the Durhua Empire was vanquished.
The Kingdom of Akaneia was restored, and the world entered an age of peace.
Taking lead from the Kingdom of Aritia, many other countries also began to
rebuild themselves.
But, 100 years after the war with Durhua.
After many years had passed, Mediuth resurrected at Durhua.
He allied with the neighbouring kingdoms of Grunia and Macedonia, and restored
the Durhua Empire.
Also he joined forces with Khadein's Archbishop Garnef, who shared the same
ambitions of ruling the world as him, and launched an attack on the Kingdom of
Akaneia.
Akaneia fought to the death, but under Grunia's General Camus and Mediuth's
might they suffered terrible losses.
Aside from Princess Nina, the royal family was wiped out.
Aritia's King Cornelius, who possessed the bloodline of Anri, left to defeat
Mediuth.
He took the Falchion, the divine sword of legends, to battle, but was betrayed
by Aritia's ally, Gra, and died in battle.
Following him, the Kingdom of Aritia also fell.
Prince Marth, just 14 years of age, managed to escape with the help of his
elder sister, Princess Ellis.
And he fled to the distant island country of Talis...

B1CH01 Chapter 1: Marth's journey
===============================================================================
Map opening
Prince Marth of Aritia was chased out of his homeland by the Durhua Empire.
He was protected by the Aritian knights, led by the veteran knight, Jeigan.
And he escaped, after much struggle, to the eastern island kingdom of Talis.
The Kingdom of Talis was a small country, without even its own knights,
located at the frontier.
The King of Talis lent his eastern fortress to Marth, and offered him
assistance.
After the death of both his parents, and his beloved sister's capture, by the
Empire, Marth felt anxious.
"Prince Marth...
I understand your concern for your sister.
However you're only 14.
You're too young to fight with the Empire.
Please wait for now.
Here you can train, until you become strong enough..."
Under the caring protection of the Talis citizens, Marth had passed 2 years at
this country.
Right now, it is fast approaching the day that he becomes 16 years of age...
Pre-battle
[Jeigan]
Prince Marth, Sheeda has come from Talis castle.
[Marth]
What? Sheeda, what's happened to the castle?
[Sheeda]
Marth, am I glad to see you!
The Garda pirates suddenly attacked us.
They took over the castle, and killed lots of people!
Please, you've got to rescue my father!
[Marth]
Don't worry, Sheeda.
The bravest Aritian knights are here in this fort.
We won't lose to those pirates.
Come, let's go to Talis castle together.
Villages
[Bald villager]
Prince Marth, please wait.
This is what the villagers gathered up.
All together there's 5000 Gold.
Please use it to make preparations, and then rescue this country from the
Garda pirates.
[Grandfather]
Your highness, the village has opened its gates for you.
Please hurry inside.
[Male villager]
Strong weapons require a high Weapon Level to use.
Flying units should always be wary of bows.
[Auntie]
If you're wounded, you can rest in the forts, where you'll slowly recover
vitality.
[Grandmother]
Garda is a port town to the west of Talis Island.
Right now it is a pirates' base, ruled by a man called Gomes.
[Uncle]
Akaneia's Princess Nina and Orleans's Lord Hardin have currently united.
It seems they are fighting to defend Orleans against an invasion by Durhua's
imperial army.
It's going to be a fierce battle.
Your highness, you should go to help them.
[Female villager]
Oh, you're the prince of Aritia!
It's like a dream to be able to see you...
This... This Vulnerary is a small gift from me.
Please accept it.
[Female villager]
When Social Knights or Pegasus Knights dismount, they become Knights.
When Horsemen dismount, they can fight as Hunters.
Versus Gazack
[Gazack]
What, the Aritian army!?
If we let you guys walk all over us, it would ruin the name of us pirates!
...Die!
Gazack falls
[Gazack]
Urgh... How...
Chapter end
[King Talis]
Oh, Prince Marth.
I am glad to see you're safe.
We are all very grateful for your actions.
Is that so...?
You're finally heading out to Orleans?
In that case, I will send some soldiers to aid you.
These men, led by Captain Oguma, are all brave warriors.
I'm certain they will help you in battle.
Before you go, I have some important advice for your highness.
From now on, during your highness's travels, you will surely find many people
who despise the Durhua Empire.
Some of them are hiding in villages, while others have been captured by
enemies.
There may even be some that have been forced to work for Durhua.
Finding these people and fighting together with them is crucial.
Do you understand me, Prince Marth...?
Well, the time has come!
