Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword
Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken
On the continent of Elibe, peace has covered the lands. It has been 1,000 years since the The Scouring, a war in which dragons fought humans in a bloody massacre, leaving both sides filled with anger towards the other. Opening a portal and sealing themselves in another world, the dragons left, never to return again.
However, a dark time is approaching the continent. A new order, known as the Black Fang, has begun spreading across the continent, starting from their capital of Bern and making their way across many lands as quickly as possible. Headed by a powerful
dark sorceror, their goal is to revive the dragons and control them for their own nefarious purposes.
On the plains of Sacae, a young girl named
Lyn has discovered that she is not a commoner, but in fact heir to the throne of her kingdom. Upon meeting a young tactician, they set out to reclaim her throne and save the life of her ailing grandfather, who is being poisoned by his younger cousin in an effort to seize power.
One year later... In the castles of Pherae, the young
Lord Eliwood has discovered an elaborate plot by the Black Fang and sets out to put an end to their conspiracy, along the way finding that none of his friends and family will be saved until he he has put an end to their terror at last.
At the capital of Ostia,
Lord Hector has also learned of this plot. Setting out to meet his friend,
Eliwood, at the behest of his
brother, he soon joins
Eliwood on his journey and together they begin to unravel the mysteries of who is behind the attacks on the populace, as well as who is the true leader of the Black Fang.
The three young aspiring nobles meet together and combine forces to stop the evil that threatens to take over their world. Will they succeed, or will they and their family's lives be destroyed forever?
Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword is set around 20 years before the events of
