This is a translation of the script of Fire Emblem 6: Fuuin no Tsurugi.  With
Fire Emblem 7 out in English in NA, people would probably be wondering about
what FE6 is about.  So here's the story.
This is my translation, so it isn't perfect, but the gist should be fairly
clear.
This only is a translation of the mainline plot.  I'm not going through all the
support conversations or anything like that.
I have only the English translation here because including the Japanese would
make this file pointlessly large.  The original Japanese text is here, courtesy
of ���킫���� Kawaki Chatei.

Enjoy!

Chapter 1: The Start of a Destiny
===============================================================================
== On the World Map ==
The people of the continent of Elibe have been spreading technology and
civilization for some time now, after the Dragons had been defeated in the
Scouring.
In the west resides the Kingdom of Etruria, which has the highest level of
civilization in Elibe.
The Kingdom of Bern, with a powerful military and a practical and pragmatic
attitude about life, is located in the east.
These are the two strongest nations in Elibe, and the lesser nations are
located between them.
There is the Lycia Alliance, which is under joint rulership of various dukes.
The people of the Knights' Union of Ilia are hard at work cultivating the
snowy wastelands in the north.
In Sacae live various clans which ride through the plains on horseback.
Although there were occasional clashes between nation-states, there was a
general sense of balance of power and peace in Elibe.
However, that balance was suddenly disrupted.
King Zephiel, ruler of the Kingdom of Bern, has sent his forces out to conquer
the rest of Elibe.
Bern's forces invaded Sacae and Ilia and mercilessly massacred all those who
stood against them.
And now, Bern has shown signs of invading the Lycia Alliance.
A youth named Roy (son of Eliwood, the current Duke of Pherae, which is a
territory in the east of Lycia) was in Lycia's largest territory, Ostia.  He
was sent as a transfer student to train to become the next Duke of Pherae.
However, Eliwood, who has fallen ill, has sent for Roy to return home.  Just
around that time, Lilina, the princess of Ostia, had traveled to Lycia to pay
her respects to Eliwood.
After getting the message, Roy hurried on his way home, taking with him his
loyal knights and Bors, a knight from Ostia responsible for Lilina's safety.
The story begins when Roy had reached an area just on the outskirts of
Pherae...
== Opening Cutscene ==
*Bandits surround the castle and take over it*
Bandit
"Boss!  The residents of the castle have hidden inside!"
Damas (the main Bandit)
"Heh even Eliwood, the greatest knight in Lycia, can't beat an illness eh?"
Bandit
"Hehehe, you were right when you said there wouldn't be many soldiers around
here because they're getting ready to take on Bern!"
Damas
"Of course, who do you think I am?  But you never know when reinforcements are
gonna come.  All right!  Kill off the guys in the castle while we still got
time!  Then all the treasure is ours!"
*Bandits appear to the southeast of the castle*
Bandit
"Hehe, castles ain't the only places with treasure.  Let's go ransack the
villages and get some loot!"
*Bandit destroys village*
*Scene shifts to inside castle*
Merlinus (the bald guy)
"Master Eliwood!  The bandits from Bolm Mountain are attacking us!"
Eliwood (the reddish-brown haired middle aged man)
"I see...  Blast!  If I weren't in this state, I would teach them a lesson...!
Cough cough..."
Lilina (girl with blue hair)
"Mr. Eliwood..."
Eliwood
"Lilina, you must hide somewhere.  This castle will become a battlefield."
Lilina
"No, sir.  I will fight, too!"
Eliwood
"Don't be ridiculous.  If something happened to you, I wouldn't know what to
say to Hector."
Lilina
"To my father?  But..."
Eliwood
"It's going to be all right.  Roy should be almost here by now, so if we can
hold our own until then, we can drive off these bandits.
Merlinus!  I want you to send a messenger to Roy informing him of this attack
immediately!"
Merlinus
"Y-Yes sir!"
*Scene switches to outside.  Lance comes running towards Roy*
Roy (boy with red hair)
"Oh, it's Lance!  What's the matter?  Why are you in such a hurry?"
Lance (Social Knight with green hair and armor)
"Master Roy!  Bandits have appeared and are attacking the castle as we speak!"
Allen (Social Knight with red hair and armor)
"What!  Is Lord Eliwood safe?"
Lance
"He's inside, defending against the bandits' attacks.  But I don't know how
long he can last with his illness...!"
Bors (Armor Knight with curly front hair)
"Excuse me, Lance is it?  Is Lady Lilina safe?"
Lance
"Are you from Ostia?  Lady Lilina is in the castle.  She should be all right as
long as Lord Eliwood is with her, but he can't last forever."
Roy
"No...I shouldn't have let Lilina go to the castle before me."
Wolt (Archer with blondish hair)
"Lord Roy, regret won't solve anything!  We must recapture the castle!"
Marcus (Paladin with purple armor, white hair, and craptastic stats)
"Wolt is right.  We must hurry!"
Roy
"You're right.  All right, let's go!  We're going to save those trapped in the
castle!"
== 1st Turn ==
*Damas moves toward castle gate*
Damas
"Dammit!  Reinforcements already?  But you ain't gettin' to the castle so
easy!"
== Battle with Damas ==
Damas
"You damn idiots!  Can't you guys take on these bastards!?"
== Defeating Damas ==
Damas
"What the...!?  S...Strong..."
== After beating the map ==
*Inside castle*
Roy
"Father!  Lilina!"
Eliwood
"Roy!  Is that you?"
Lilina
"Roy!"
Roy
"Father!  Lilina!  ...Thank goodness you're all right."
Eliwood
"Roy, thanks for coming this far."
Roy
"Of course, father.  How is your health?"
Eliwood
"I'm fine.  I'm still alive, see?  Now, Roy, you know why I sent for you to
return to Pherae, yes?"
Roy
"I am to take over your role of leading Pherae's military and join the Lycia
Alliance Army."
Eliwood
"Yes.  As you know, Bern has started to conquer Lycia.  We must follow the
ancient rule and send out our military to protect the land of Lycia."
Roy
"Yes."
Eliwood
"I really didn't want to send you out because you were still studying, but I'm
not well...I would only be a hindrance to everybody else."
Roy
"Father..."
Lilina
"Mr. Eliwood, I will accompany Roy!  My father is in charge of Lycia's main
army.  And I could use my magic to be of some help to Roy..."
Eliwood
"No, Lilina, you must return to Ostia."
Lilina
"...Why?"
Eliwood
"With Hector's absence, there is no one currently sitting on the throne in
Ostia.  The people must be feeling uptight as well.  You, being the princess,
must take the throne until Hector returns and ease the tension of the people.
Am I wrong?"
Lilina
"...No, sir."
Eliwood
"Roy, first you must go the Bern border and meet with the mercenary group that
I have arranged a contract with.  I'll send Merlinus along with you.  He'll be
helpful with his knowledge."
Roy
"Thank you for everything, father."
Eliwood
"You'll be fine.  You can do it!  Go and fight, and show them who you are, the
next Duke of Pherae!"
Roy
"Yes!"
Lilina
"Bors, I have something to ask of you."
Bors
"I know, my Lady.  I will accompany Roy in his travels and swear to protect him
with my life."
Lilina
"Thank you, Bors.  Roy, be careful."
Roy
"I know.  You too, Lilina!"

Chapter 2: The Princess of Bern
===============================================================================
== On the World Map ==
There is a small village on the border of Pherae and Bern.
Here was where Roy was to meet the mercenary band that Eliwood had hired for
him.
Just east of the village is a small castle occupied by Bern's forces.  When Roy
had reached the village, the castle was in a chaotic state.
Roy had yet to learn that the confusion going on in the castle was going to
cause turbulence all over Elibe.
== Opening Cutscene ==
*Rude comes out of the castle*
Miledy (Dragon Knight with red armor)
"What I'm asking is where the princess is!"
Rude (the Armor Knight)
"Y-Yes Captain Miledy...I'm certain she was in her room this morning..."
Miledy
"I've heard that enough times!  What I want to know is where the princess is
at this moment!"
Rude
"Um...she's...er..."
Miledy
"We're almost going into head-on war with Lycia.  What if something happens to
the princess?  Can you take responsibility?"
Rude
"......"
Miledy
"I never should have let her Majesty go down to the border in the first place.
I will return to Bern and inform the king about this matter.  I'll try not to
make it into a panic, so you must find the princess as soon as possible!
Understood?"
Rude
"Yes ma'am!"
*Miledy leaves*
*A Soldier appears*
Rude
"Is Princess Guinevere still with us?"
Soldier
"Yes sir, she's under constant monitoring in the basement room."
Rude
"Good.  Don't let her escape."
Soldier
"Sir...are you sure this is such a good idea?"
Rude
"Don't worry!  Bern has plenty of enemies.  The younger sister of the king of
Bern...we'll be sure to get a hefty amount of money by turning her in to one
of our foes."
Soldier
"......"
Rude
"We're not going to make it anywhere by serving our country anyway, so we're
better off thinking of ways to make money fast, no?"
Soldier
"Yes, of course sir.  ...But, there is one little problem with that plan..."
Rude
"?  What do you mean?"
Soldier
"I just received a report...it seems that Princess Guinevere's servant has
escaped..."
Rude
"What!?  You fool, why didn't you say so earlier?  Go search for her
immediately!  Don't let her get away!"
*Scene switches to Roy*
Merlinus
"Master Roy, it's around here somewhere."
Roy
"This is where we're supposed meet the mercenary band?"
Merlinus
"Yes, though it seems they aren't here yet.  Oh wait, I can see somebody coming
this way..."
*Ellen comes running towards Roy*
Roy
"Watch out!"
Ellen (Cleric with a white hood)
"Oh, excuse me!  I was in a hurry..."
Roy
"No, it's all right.  I'm fine, but are you okay?"
Ellen
"Yes, I'm fine.  Thank you."
Roy
"Good that you're not hurt..."
Ellen
"...You are from Lycia, are you not?"
Roy
"Yes, I am the son of the Duke of Pherae."
Ellen
"Oh...Dear God!  I thank You for Your guidance!"
Roy
"?"
Ellen
"Please, could you help me rescue my mistress?"
Roy
"What happened?"
Ellen
"My mistress and I were traveling to meet someone from the Lycia Alliance.
However, while we were passing through here, we fell into a trap set by Rude,
the lord of the castle just east of here.  We were captured."
Merlinus
"Master Roy!  We mustn't get into unnecessary entanglements with Bern now!"
Roy
"But we can't neglect a person who has come to meet someone from the Alliance.
...But, it isn't smart to charge into enemy fields either...  ...!!"
Soldier
"There they are!  Hey guys, over here!  Get the servant girl!  It doesn't
matter whether she's dead or alive!"
Ellen
"Oh, no..."
Roy
"Well, Merlinus, they attacked first.  We have to fight, don't we?"
Merlinus
"You won't pay heed of me now, will you?  I guess I can be witness to how much
you have learned in Ostia."
Roy
"All right!  We're going to charge the castle!  Miss Ellen, you can hide
some place safe..."
Ellen
"No, I will accompany you.  I cannot fight, but I can heal wounded allies."
Roy
"Oh...but..."
Ellen
"I'm the one who got you tangled up in this mess.  Please let me be of some
help."
Roy
"Okay, but please don't strain yourself."
Ellen
"Yes, thank you for your consideration."
== 2nd Turn ==
*Dieck and company appear in the south*
Dieck (Mercenary with scar)
"It should be around here somewhere...Thany, could you go and check to see if
the Pherae Army is around here somewhere?"
Thany (the Pegasus Knight)
"Sure!"
*Thany flies off*
Ward (Fighter with blue headband, brown hair)
"Dieck, who's our client this time?"
Dieck
"The Pherae family, one of the dukes of Lycia.  The duke's son is going to join
the Lycia Alliance."
Lott (Fighter with black headband, red hair)
"So we're going up against Bern?"
Dieck
"That's what it looks like."
Ward
"A worthy opponent!  Time to show some skill, eh?"
Lott
"Bern...this one's going to be tough.  Better be careful."
*Thany returns*
Thany
"I think I've found them!  But it looks like they're fighting somebody down
there."
Dieck
"What, a battle's already started?  We better hurry!"
== Conversation (Roy, Dieck) ==
Dieck
"Are you Roy from the Pherae family?"
Roy
"Who are you?"
Dieck
"I'm Dieck.  I think you've heard the news from an old guy called Merlinus."
Roy
"So you're the leader of the mercenary band?"
Dieck
"It's just a little group, really.  I'm sorry we were late, I didn't think that
a battle was already going on."
Roy
"Well we have our issues..."
Dieck
"No no, we're not blaming you for it.  Actually everyone's all excited and
saying that they can show off their skills already."
Roy
"Thank you.  That's encouraging to hear."
Dieck
"All right then, let's get this battle over with, shall we?"
== Battle with Rude ==
Rude
"Damn!  Just when I thought luck was with me..."
== Defeating Rude ==
Rude
"Ugh...greed...only brings you...ill fate..."

*Inside Castle*
Merlinus
"Master Roy!  We have rescued a lady trapped in a room in the basement!"
Roy
"That must Ellen's mistress.  Have her come here."
Merlinus
"Yes."
Ellen
"Your Majesty!"
Guinevere (woman with blond hair)
"Ellen!  Oh, you were all right?  I never knew you would do such a brave thing
for me...  You had me worried, Ellen."
Ellen
"I wanted to rescue you no matter what...so..."
Guinevere
"It is fine, Ellen.  Thanks to you, I am safe now."
*Guinevere turns to Roy*
Guinevere
"You are in my debt.  May I ask your name?"
Roy
"I am Roy, son of Eliwood, the Duke of Pherae."
Guinevere
"Yes.  And I am..."
Ellen
"Your Majesty...are you sure?"
Guinevere
"It is all right, Ellen.  My name is Guinevere."
Roy
"Guinevere!?  That's impossible!  That's the name of the princess of Bern!"
Guinevere
"Yes, that is who I am."
Merlinus
"What!  Do you plan on attacking us now!?"
Roy
"Merlinus, wait a second."
Merlinus
"I beg your pardon, Lord Roy, but..."
Roy
"I want to speak with her.  Give me some time, will you?"
Merlinus
"Hmph, if Master Roy says so..."
*Merlinus leaves*
Roy
"You are indeed Princess Guinevere from Bern?"
Guinevere
"Yes.  I am not sure if you will believe me, however."
Roy
"Even if you are not the princess of Bern, I can tell from your actions and
dress that you are certainly someone of high social status.  But...if you are
indeed Princess Guinevere, something doesn't seem right.  Ellen told me that
you intended to meet someone from the Lycia Alliance."
Guinevere
"Yes, that is correct."
Roy
"Why, if you are the princess of Bern?"
Guinevere
"I want to find a peaceful way of ending this war.  I figured that if I could
speak with someone from Lycia, I could find some solution."
Roy
"Your brother started this war.  Is it in your power to stop it?"
Guinevere
"I certainly wish to stop it.  No, it must be stopped."
Roy
"...I see.  Anyway, will you come with us to meet the Lycia Alliance Army?  I
want to meet Lord Hector and see what he thinks about this matter."
Guinevere
"Honestly...you will take me?"
Roy
"Yes.  If there is a possibility to avoid bloodshed and end this war, then I
believe that we must try it, no matter how small the chance."
Guinevere
"Thank you!  Thank you...truly."

Chapter 3: The One Who Came Late
===============================================================================
== On the World Map ==
Just to the north of the Pherae territory stands Castle Araphen.
The Lycia Alliance had gathered here to discuss the matters of going up against
Bern.
Roy's army was hurrying toward Castle Araphen, taking with them Princess
Guinevere, a key member who could make or break this war.
However, when Roy was only half a day away from Castle Araphen, a messenger
brought him news that he could not believe.
The message was this.  "Bern has a trio of elite generals called the Three
Dragon Lords.  Two of these, General Brenya and General Narshen, have attacked
Castle Araphen and have nearly decimated the Lycia Alliance Army."
Although the morale of the Pherae Army went down severely, Roy led his group
toward Castle Araphen to find survivors and check the damage.
== Opening Cutscene ==
*Brenya runs toward Zephiel, who's sitting on the throne*
*Inside castle*
Brenya (Sage with purplish armor)
"Your Majesty, we have captured the enemy leader."
Zephiel (King with a large purple collar)
"Good.  Bring him before me."
*Hector appears*
Hector (blue hair and beard, with blood on his face)
"You...Zephiel, the King of Bern!!  Damn you...!!"
Zephiel
"Ah, Lord Hector.  I must praise your ability of putting up such a good fight
against two of our Dragon Lords.  I suppose they do not call you the leader
of the Lycia Alliance for nothing.  However, you were not good enough.  Pray
while you can, for you end here."
Hector
"Why..."
Zephiel
"Hm?"
Hector
"Bern and Lycia...we were always on good terms with each other.  Even when you
took the throne, we have always paid our respects towards Bern..."
Zephiel
"Respect?  Don't be ridiculous.  Lycia...no, this entire continent must go
under my rule.  That is the only way to liberate this world.  I lack the time
to be worrying about such trivial matters as respect."
Hector
"To liberate...this world?  What do you mean...?"
Zephiel
"It is of no importance to you.  You are going to die anyway.  Someone!  Take
him away!"
*Hector leaves.  A Soldier appears*
Zephiel
"Throw Lord Hector into the dungeon!"
Soldier
"Yes sir!"
Brenya
"Your Majesty, I will now return to the Sacae Plains."
Zephiel
"Yes, you may be on your way."
Brenya
"One thing before I leave, your Majesty.  I beg your pardon, but I do not think
that it is such a good idea to put too much trust into sinister people..."
Zephiel
"Do you mean Idoun?"
Brenya
"Yes.  Our soldiers call her the 'Dark Priestess' and do not approve of her
presence.  I understand that she is a Shaman of great powers, however..."
Zephiel
"Brenya, do you not have faith in me?"
Brenya
"...!  Yes, of course I do, your Majesty!  I just thought that..."
Zephiel
"Then all you do is follow my orders.  Understood?"
Brenya
"...Yes.  I will do whatever his Majesty wishes."
*Brenya leaves*
Zephiel
"'Do you not have faith in me?'  Dear dear, the things I say sometimes..."
*Scene switches to Roy.  Chad is with him*
Roy
"So Lord Hector is still alive!?"
Chad (the Thief)
"Yeah, that's for sure.  I saw some of Bern's soldiers take him into the
castle."
Roy
"Chad, was it?  Do you know the inside of Castle Araphen well?"
Chad
"I guess.  Wait, are you guys planning on going in to save Lord Hector?  I
wouldn't try that if I were you.  The bulk of Bern's forces are gone, but
there are still a decent number of soldiers still in the castle, you know? It
would be suicide to try and charge them with your army."
Roy
"Perhaps.  But we can't afford to lose Lord Hector.  And you said that their
main forces are gone, right?  Then there is a chance that we could win."
Chad
"I see...  Then I guess I'll go along too.  I can show you around the castle."
Roy
"What!?  No no, don't feel pressured!  If you could just explain what the
interior of the castle looks like..."
Chad
"I also want revenge against Bern.  C'mon, let me go with you!"
Roy
"All right.  Then I'll be counting on you."
Chad
"Of course!  Leave locked chests and doors to me!"
*Chad leaves.  Guinevere appears*
Guinevere
"...Master Roy...I beg your forgiveness of my brother's doings...  I didn't
think he would invade Lycia so soon..."
Roy
"My Lady, there's no point in dwelling over the past.  Please do not blame
yourself.  Besides, Lycia is still intact.  If we could get our leader, Lord
Hector, out of harm's way, we can unite Lycia once again and fight!  We must
recapture Castle Araphen for all of our sakes.  ...And for Lilina's sake..."
Guinevere
"......"
Roy
"Let's go!"
== 2nd Turn ==
*At village*
Lou (the green haired boy)
"Thanks for taking care of the children, Reverend."
Reverend (the priest-like guy)
"Of course.  We of the Elimine Church will take good care of the orphans.  And
what will you do, Lou?"
Lou
"I'm going to stay here.  I still have some things to do."
Reverend
"I see...but please do not stress yourself."
Lou
"Yes, thank you."
*A little boy and girl appear*
Lou
"Make sure you listen to what the priest says, okay?"
Little Boy
"Aren't you coming with us, Lou?"
Lou
"I'm going to wait for Chad, and then we'll catch up with you..."
Little Girl
"Yay!  Chad's coming too?"
Lou
"That's right."
Little Boy
"Then I want Ray to come too!"
Lou
"Yeah...It would be great if Ray came back and we could all go together,
wouldn't it?"
Reverend
"Children, we must be off."
Little Boy
"See you later, Lou."
Little Girl
"Hurry and catch up, okay?"
Lou
"Sure..."
*The Reverend and the little boy and girl leave*
Lou
"Sorry...but I've chosen not to run away any more."
== 3rd Turn ==
*Zephiel, Narshen and Idoun appear*
Zephiel
"Narshen!  What is causing all that noise?"
Narshen (the Dragon Master with blond hair and sneering eyes)
"Probably what's left of the enemy are trying to put up a fight in their last
hope.  Excuse me your Majesty, I shall have them cleaned up in no time."
Idoun (the Mamkute with a large purple hood)
"Your Highness, shall we use the Dragons?"
Narshen
"No, I do not wish to put the Dark Priestess through any trouble.  Do not
worry, we can handle them by ourselves..."
Idoun
"......"
Zephiel
"Not this time, Idoun.  Send the Dragons back to Bern, as was planned."
Idoun
"Yes, if his Highness wishes it to be so."
Narshen
"......"
Zephiel
"I will be off to Bern soon as well.  Narshen, I'm going to leave Lycia up to
you."
Narshen
"...What shall I do with the remaining forces of the Lycia Army?"
Zephiel
"Kill all those who stand against us."
Narshen
"...Does that include women and children?"
Zephiel
"Of course.  Annihilate them enough so that they would no longer even think
about going against us."
Narshen
"Leave that to me, sire.  Hehehe..."
*Zephiel and Idoun leave.  Slater appears*
Narshen
"Hmph, I wonder what his Majesty sees in that Idoun girl.  Well I think I'll
be going as well.  Slater, I'm trusting this castle with you."
Slater (the Armor Knight)
"Are you leaving?"
Narshen
"Yes.  One of the dukes who turned against Lycia has a special gift for me.  He
says it's a girl from Etrurian nobility or something...hehehe..."
Slater
"From Etruria?  She must very beautiful then!"
Narshen
"Yes, the duke tells me she's still young but very beautiful."
Slater
"I would be looking forward to it if I were you, sir.  Please be careful on
your way there."
Narshen
"You be careful too, Slater.  Don't you dare get defeated by these remainders
of Lycia's army.  If you do, I will personally tear you apart."
Slater
"...Have mercy, sir...!"
Narshen
"Hahaha...!"
*Narshen leaves.  Slater goes to throne*
== Conversation (Lou, Chad) ==
Lou
"Chad!  You're okay!"
Chad
"Lou!?  What are you doing here?"
Lou
"We all fled to here."
Chad
"Oh...  Where's everybody else?  Are they all right?"
Lou
"Yeah, the Elimine Church is going to take care of them for a while."
Chad
"What about you?"
Lou
"What?"
Chad
"How come you're still here?"
Lou
"...The same reason as you."
Chad
"!?  Lou, you're not thinking of...!"
Lou
"I can use some magic!  You know, when I borrowed the Fire spell book from
Father's room?" (note: "Father" here means priest, or the owner of the
orphanage Lou and Chad were in.)
Chad
"Lou, don't force yourself.  You can't hurt people, can you?"
Lou
"But..."
Chad
"I'm going to avenge Father.  Lou, you should stay with the others."
Lou
"I'm not going to hide any more!  Everyone, everyone just disappears when I'm
not looking...!  Father, you...even Ray...  I want to fight to protect the
people I care for.  I want to protect, and not just be protected!"
Chad
"Lou...  All right then, let's crush Bern as soon as possible and go meet
everybody else!"
Lou
"Yeah!"

Merlinus
"Master Roy!  We have found Lord Hector in the dungeon level!"
Roy
"Really!?  Is it all right?"
Merlinus
"He's severely wounded..."
*Hector appears*
Hector
"Roy..."
Roy
"Lord Hector!  What an awful wound...!  We must treat it!  Here, lean on my
shoulder..."
Hector
"It's all right...I won't last much longer..."
Roy
"Lord Hector..."
Hector
"I was taken by surprise...I never would have guessed that Bern had resurrected
the Dragons...!"
Roy
"Dragons!?"
Hector
"Yes...the Dragons that we humans fought in the past..."
Roy
"The Scouring?  I have heard of it.  A long time ago, two races that each had
half of Elibe, the humans and the Dragons, fought over total control of the
continent..."
Hector
"Right...the "Eight Heroes"...defeated the Dragons and led us humans...to
vic...tory..."
Roy
"How did Bern use the Dragons...?"
Hector
"I...have no idea...but...the Dragons had control of what is now Bern in the
past...and Hartmut, one of the "Eight Heroes"...is the founder of Bern...
perhaps...the reason...lies there...cough cough..."
Roy
"Lord Hector!"
Hector
"Roy...go to Ostia...!  ...You must...lead what is left of the Lycia Alliance
Army...instead of me..."
Roy
"Me...?  But..."
Hector
"Don't worry...in Ostia...are weapons that....are effective against Dragons..."
Roy
"Weapons...?"
Hector
"I have already told this to Lilina...please take care of her too...she...may
seem strong...but she is still a child...please...give her support..."
Roy
"...Yes, I will."

Chapter 4: The Collapse of the Alliance
===============================================================================
== On the World Map ==
Respecting Hector's last wishes, Roy made his way west toward Ostia.
On the way there, Roy passes through the Laus territory, governed by Duke Eric.
At a glance, Laus is a peaceful territory with vast meadows and clear streams,
but there was great skullduggery going on behind the scenes...
== Opening Cutscene ==
*Narshen goes to meet Eric*
Eric (the guy with the mustache)
"Ah, Sir Narshen."
Narshen
"Lord Eric.  I have not praised your wise decision of turning against Lycia to
come to our side yet."
Eric
"There is no future for us if we are to be chained down by old, moldy
traditions, sir."
Narshen
"That, my friend, is a wise way of thinking.  Now, where is the gift that you
promised me?  She does not seem to be here."
Eric
"Ah, yes!  I have prepared her in a separate room.  She is a naive girl, you
see.  When I told her that I would let her meet her brother, she came right
along with us.  You over there!  Bring her here!"
*Clarine appears*
Clarine (the blond haired girl)
"What is this room?  Where is my brother Klein?"
Narshen
"Welcome, Lady Clarine."
Clarine
"Who might you be?"
Narshen
"I am Narshen, one of Bern's Three Dragon Lords.  My Lady, I shall play with
you instead of your brother.  Hehehe..."
Clarine
*laughs*
Narshen
"?  What is so amusing, my Lady?"
Clarine
"You?  Instead of my brother?  Take a good look in the mirror.  Your clothing,
your hair, your speech...every aspect of you completely lacks finesse."
Narshen
"Lacks finesse!?  Me, lacking finesse!?"
Clarine
"Comparing you and my brother is like comparing a turkey to a peacock!"
Narshen
"You, you vermin!!  Saying that I lack finesse, of all things!!"
*A Soldier appears*
Soldier
"Sir Narshen, I have just received a report that Castle Araphen has been
retaken by the enemy!"
Narshen
"What!  What happened to Slater?"
Soldier
"Er...his whereabouts are unknown, sir.  The enemy has been reported as being
Roy, son of the Duke of Pherae."
Narshen
"Damn!  Lord Eric, lock the girl up in some cell.  I shall have much 'fun' with
her when I return!  You, close down the highroad leading to Ostia.  This Roy
figure might pass by."
Soldier
"Yes sir!"
*Narshen leaves the castle*
== 2nd Turn ==
*Inside cell*
Clarine
"They shall pay for locking me up in here..."
Rutgar (voice only)
"...Hey."
Clarine
"Is someone there!?"
Rutgar (the guy with long dark brown hair and red cloak)
"I'm a mercenary hired by Lord Eric.  He wants to see you."
Clarine
"I refuse.  I do not wish to meet with such lower-class people."
Rutgar
"...Just get over here!"
Clarine
"Let go!  You shall pay!  Do you know who I am!?"
Rutgar
"......"
Clarine
"Let go, I say!"
== 3rd Turn ==
*Inside castle*
Clarine
"I said, let go!"
Rutgar
"Shut up.  You won't be able to escape with all the noise you're making."
Clarine
"!  Then you're..."
Rutgar
"I've prepared a horse for you over there by that tree.  Get on it and leave
while you can."
Clarine
"...Why are you helping me?"
Rutgar
"I have hatred against Bern."
Clarine
"Hatred?"
Rutgar
"It's none of your business."
Clarine
"Putting it that way makes me more curious."
Rutgar
"Time's running short.  Go!"
Clarine
"......"
*Clarine leaves the castle*
Clarine
"This is in the middle of a battlefield!  What was that man thinking!?  A
proper gentleman should escort the lady to her mansion!  Well, putting that
aside...I came all the way here on my own to meet my brother, and now look at
the state I'm in...  What should I do now?"
== 4th Turn ==
*Pirates appear from the fort near the bottom of the map ==
Pirate
"Heh...all this crap about Lycia and Bern or whatever.  People of nobility have
so much to worry about.  Well, we can't complain 'cause we make our living off
of turmoil.  Hehehe..."
