Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon/Chapter 6

-_-_-_-_-_- Fire Emblem [CHP6] _-_-_-_-_-_

"After shattering Medon's main force outside Aurelis Castle, Marth next led his army into the castle's halls to liberate the kingdom. A number of treasures slept in Aurelis Castle's nooks and crannies but how to extract them before they could fall into enemy hands?

"Only a thief could open chests locked that tight," grumbled one of Marth's men.

"But we don't have any thieves with us. ...Do we?""

DIALOGUE

Emereus: What?! The rebels are inside the castle? Grrr...Very well! Armored units: intercept the intruders! Archers: defend the throne! Thieves, you go gather up the treasure while I make preparations to withdraw. You have your orders! Don't let those rebels anywhere near this chamber!

END DIALOGUE

This battle is going to be a fast paced battle. No time for idling. Take your best units, get your best weapons. For the first half of the map, let your strong units rush and kill the various thieves before they run off with the treasure.

Keep some units for the latter part, you can afford to take your time after. Remember to take a thief also.

There are no houses in this map, hence no houses section.

Start the battle when you are done. First, do note that there is a thief locked in the jail at the beginning of the map. Don't waste time on him now. He can be recruited with Marth later (don't worry, he isn't going anywhere).

Rush the halls with your fastest units, ie. Cavaliers. Back them up with Marth, Nabarl, Wolf/Gordin, and Merric. Make sure that no thieves even get close to getting away, the treasure is really good, especially the seraph robe.

At the bottom, near the throne, it is pretty packed and you will lose a char- acter if you aren't careful. Easy way to beat it is first, lure the units one by one. Eliminate them then lure another. Once you can't do that anymore while not risking losing a character, amass a small army. Figure out who is going to attack what.

For example, if I see two archers and a knight, I would think:

1) My mage, Merric, can easily take out the knight, let's position him to do that. 2) Archers can't fight back in close range, so let's get two cavaliers to kill them.

The boss is a pushover since he doesn't have any long range weapons. Use magic to beat him fast.

Boss: Emereus HP: 28

Weapon: Silver Lance Drop: Master Key

Beginning Quote: "Blast! They're upon me! Why didn't those idiot soldiers stop them?!"

End Quote: "Rrgh...Why...?"

After this, make sure you recruited Rickard in the jail. Dialogue is as follows

DIALOGUE

Rickard: ...Wow! Really?! A prince, you say? Thanks for sprinin' me! I'm Rickard. Just a small-time thief, mind you, but I've got big aspirations.

I broke in here to clean the place out, and instead it was me that got my cloak cleaned. Since you saved my hide, I guess the least I can do is lend you my services in return.

END DIALOGUE

Seize the throne.

DIALOGUE

Nyna: Prince Marth... At long last. I am Nyna of House Akaneia. 'Tis Akaneia's burden to protect the world of crisis- a duty I have striven to fulfill

But Doluna has laid waste to my kingdom, and now I find myself powerless to stop the world from falling into ruin. Marth... Please, pick up the banner where I have let it fall. Lead your might against Doluna, and free us all.

Marth: Of course, Princess Nyna. Altea swore fealty to Akaneia long ago, a vow we have always kept. And, as you know, it is in my blood- House Altea's blood- to destroy Medeus just as Anri did before me.

Nyna: thank you, Marth. Then let me give you this. This crest is called the Fire Emblem. House Akaneia bestows it only upon a true champion, one we believe has the power to save the world.

With it, you gain the right to open treasure chests across the land and wield the precious items within.

I know you will use them well. Never give up, Marth. Fight, until the day you restore light to our world.

(OBTAINED THE FIRE EMBLEM)
