Well... I found for all the forum and I didn't find anything about the game Fire Emblem... and I think is a good game... so I will post all that I know here... and also some information for you... ok! ^^
Fire Emblem is a popular strategy/role-playing video game franchise developed by Intelligent Systems, the creators of Nintendo Wars/Famicom Wars/Advance Wars, and published by Nintendo. The Fire Emblem games are strategic role-playing games with a very strong emphasis on western forms of medieval folklore. The Fire Emblem franchise has graced the Famicom, Super Famicom, Game Boy Advance, and the Nintendo GameCube. It was confined to Japan until the seventh installment, Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword, which was released on the Game Boy Advance in North America in 2003 and in Europe in 2004 under the title Fire Emblem.
What is the Fire Emblem?
The "Fire Emblem" is a plot device or item that has taken multiple forms throughout the series, changing with the setting. The original Fire Emblem was a shield which allowed the wielder, Marth, to use the Falchion sword. During the second part of Monsh¨ no Nazo, the Fire Emblem can be upgraded with five orbs to turn it into the Shield of Seals. In Rekka no Ken and F¨±in no Tsurugi, the Fire Emblem is a seal required for a ceremony to recognize the heir to the throne of Bern. It is also used to unlock the Sword of Seals. In The Sacred Stones, the Fire Emblem is the Sacred Stone of Grado, which holds the Demon King's spirit, but is split in two (the other half forms the Dark Stone), and then the Fire Emblem is crushed. In Path of Radiance, it was another name for Lehran's Medallion, an artifact containing the imprisoned spirit of an evil god. There is no actual Fire Emblem in the games Seisen no Keifu or Thracia 776.

About:
Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword (Japanese= Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken) is a Japanese tactical role-playing game for the Game Boy Advance developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo. It is the seventh game of the Fire Emblem series and the first to be released in both North America and Europe (where it was marketed under the title Fire Emblem). It is the prequel to Fire Emblem: F¨±in no Tsurugi, or Fire Emblem: Sword of Seals), taking place five years before Roy was born.
Note that while "Blazing Sword" is the official translated sub-title of the game used by Nintendo (in the official website when describing the history of the game, for example), it doesn't actually appear in the North American and European versions of the games themselves. The subtitle is used here to disambiguate the game from the Fire Emblem series itself.
Prelude
"Once, dragons and men coexisted.
They shared a peace forged in wisdom.
All that was lost when mankind disrupted this balance in a sudden onslaught.
Defeated and humbled, dragons vanished from the realm.
In time, man rebuilt and spread his dominion across the land and the islands beyond.
A millennium has passed since those dark days ended."
Lyn's Tale
The game's narrative starts in the plains of Sacae. The player character, a tactician whose default name is Mark, is found lying unconscious by a girl named Lyndis (more commonly known as Lyn). After a short series of events, Mark and Lyn meet the Cavaliers Kent and Sain, who reveal that Lyn is the daughter of Hassar and Marquess Caelin's daughter, Madelyn--making her heir to the throne of Caelin. However, Lyn's existence is an obstacle to Lundgren, who desires to succeed his brother Hausen as the marquess, and Lundgren will stop at nothing to make make sure that Lyn falls victim to an untimely demise. So begins Lyn's quest to claim her rightful position as heir to the Caelin throne. Before setting out for Caelin, Lyn, Kent and Sain visit a temple in order to pray before the Mani Katti, a sacred blade. The temple is under attack by a group of bandits led by Glass, who desires to steal the Mani Katti. However, the sword contains spirits that will only allow one of pure heart to wield it. After defeating the bandits and rescuing the priest, Lyn discovers that she is the chosen wielder of the Mani Katti.
Lyn travels from the plains of Sacae to Lundgren's stronghold in a series of 10 chapters. Over time, Lyn meets a variety of companions including the frail-yet-potent Pegasus Knight Florina, the social Archer Wil, the devoted Fighter Dorcas, the uptight Mage Erk, the feisty Cleric Serra, the happy-go-lucky Thief Matthew, the quiet Nomad Rath, the mysterious Bard Nils, the pious Monk Lucius, and the former Caelin Knight Wallace. After the conclusion of this story, the player will proceed from the beginning of either Eliwood or Hector's Tale.
When playing the game for the first time, Lyn's Tale will serve as a tutorial and many actions will be mandatory. After completing the game once, Hard Mode will be selectable. In Hard Mode, the player is given the freedom to play as he or she would at any other point. That is, no moves will be forced in the beginning and Wallace can stay unpromoted.
Eliwood's Tale
Eliwood's story starts a year after Lyn defeated Lundgren.
Eliwood is leaving Pherae to go in search of his missing father, Elbert. As he and his escorts prepare to leave the area, a local village is attacked by bandits led by Groznyi who want to take advantage of Elbert's absence. At that time, you, the tactician, are at the village, and Eliwood acquires your help in order to take down the bandits.
After defeating the bandits, Eliwood heads to Santaruz, which he believes his father likely passed through on his journey. On the outskirts of Santaruz, Eliwood's group is accosted by some bandits hired to kill Eliwood, but Eliwood's friend Hector, the brother of the marquess of Ostia, comes to the rescue. The Santaruz soldiers, however, seem more content to watch the fight, instead of helping Pherae's heir. Closer to Santaruz, they are then attacked by members of the Black Fang. Eventually getting to Santaruz Castle, Eliwood is anxious to ask Santaruz's Lord Helman as to why these attacks are happening. To their shock, Eliwood's group finds him clinging to life, having been stabbed by an assassin. With his dying words, Lord Helman tells them to find Darin, Marquess of Laus, saying that "he knows all." Helman then advises them to "beware the Black Fang," and with that, he perishes.
Eliwood then journeys to Laus, which is preparing a rebellion against Ostia. In a large battle, Eliwood and his group capture Darin's son Erik, however, Darin flees the castle during the battle. After the rebellion is quelled, Erik provides Eliwood with answers to some of his questions. It seems that Eliwood's father, Marquess Pherae, was one of the lords that supported Darin's rebellion. A mysterious man named Ephidel introduced the whole idea of rebellion in the first place, according to Erik. Eliwood doesn't believe that his father could have supported such a plan, and continues to search for Darin.
A couple of days later, Eliwood is informed that Castle Caelin has fallen to an attack from the remains of Laus's army, so Eliwood, fearing that his friend Lyn (who he helped during her story) might have been killed. To save Lyn, Eliwood rushes to the castle's rescue. His small army meets up with Lyn and four of her allies, and they decide to work together to capture the castle. After a long battle to get the castle under Caelin control, peace is restored to the area... but Darin and Ephidel escape again.
Eliwood and Hector come upon the Ostian spy Leila, who is working undercover in the Black Fang and is Matthew's best friend and fellow spy in service to Lord Uther. She informs them that the Black Fang is responsible for all that has happened. Although the Black Fang used to be a organization with mostly noble intentions, it is being used now by Nergal, a mysterious man who wants to start war in Lycia for unknown reasons. They also find out that Elbert is being held captive at the Dragon's Gate, a place on Valor island, also known as the 'Dread Isle', because all those who set sail for the island never returned.
Lyn, Hector, and Eliwood set sail to the island with the help of the pirate captain Fargus (though Lyn isn't happy about asking a bunch of pirates for help, as she hates bandits, no matter what kind they are.) Along the way, they find Nils's sister Ninian in a small drifting boat. She unfortunately has amnesia, and has no idea where she is, why she was there, or even who she is. Nils isn't with her, which Lyn finds highly suspicious. Eliwood and company reach the island, but along the way to the Dragon's Gate, the group runs into Leila, but she is already dead. Jaffar, one of the Four Fangs of the Black Fang, killed her after her disguise was revealed. Matthew vows to avenge her in any way he can as the group plunges into the fog surrounding the entrance to the island.
After finding the Dragon's Gate, a huge place that the Dragons created during the Scouring. Ephidel then teleports in and takes Ninian, so they assualt the temple to rescue her. Here they face off against Darin, and he is finally slain. Eliwood finds his father near the back of the temple, but before they can take him out, Jaffar appears and stops them from leaving. Then Nergal and Ephidel come in with the captured Ninian. Nergal absorbs Elbert's soul, and feeds it into Ninian, forcing her to open the Gate. This will allow Dragons to cross over from their new world, back to this one. As Nergal believes he can control Dragons, he believes he will be able to take over the world with them, taking their life-force, known as quintessence, to make himself stronger.
But as a Dragon is starting to emerge from out of the portal, Nils comes in and brings Ninian to her senses. She immediately closes the portal, causing the dragon, halfway through the portal, to disintegrate...taking Ephidel down with it. Nergal attempts to take Ninian and Nils, but the nearly-dead Elbert manages to find enough strength to deal him a great wound, at which point he flees to recover. Elbert then dies in his son's arms.
Eliwood and company head back to the mainland to inform Marquess Uther, Hector's older brother and Marquess of Ostia, of what has been happening. On the way, they are ambushed in Badon by a group of Black Fang, but they prevail. As they prepare to meet Uther in a fortress on the outskirts of Ostia, they are attacked by a group of mercenaries. To make matters worse, Nils collapses, having given too much of his energy to Ninian previously. Ninian tells them not to move him at all, and thus they find themselves having to defend Nils until Uther arrives. Through the help of a defecting mercenary named Heath, Eliwood and company learn that the attacking group, lead by Commander Eubans, used to work for Laus. Eubans's forces hoped to join the Black Fang if they succeed in killing Eliwood, as Laus is now defunct, but they fail and flee when Eubans falls.
Uther is troubled by the news of dragons, and suggests Eliwood go to the Nabata desert to meet a person he will only refer to as the 'living legend'. This legend turns out to be Archsage Athos, one of the veterans of the Scouring, whose lifespan has been drastically lengthened because of his deep connection to magic. After Eliwood assists a mysterious Sage in the desert named Pent, who turns out to be Athos's student, Erk's mentor, and the count of Reglay, leads them back to a nearby temple. Athos tells them that they will need to find the Shrine of Seals in Bern if they want to stand a chance against Nergal.
After Athos teleports the group back to Pherae, Eliwood reunites with his mother, Lady Eleanora, but she already knows of her husband Elbert's death, as she sent her vassal Isadora to Eliwood's aid when he fought Oleg in Badon. After staying the night, the group sets out in disguise as travelers toward Bern.
When they reach Bern, they hear of Prince Zephiel's coming-of-age ceremony, during which Pent and his wife, the beautiful Louise, hatch a plan to ask Queen Hellene of Bern about the location of the Shrine of Seals. While waiting, Legault, a Thief who left the Black Fang and joined Eliwood's group at the Dragon's Gate, suggests that they try to gather more information on the Black Fang. Halfway through their search, they are attacked by one of the Reed Brothers. After subduing him, they persuade him that they're not his enemy, at which point he decides to track Sonia, the woman Nergal is using to control the Black Fang, and discover her intentions. However, Limstella shows up and absorbs his quintessence in order to heal Nergal's wound. The other Reed brother, showing up later and finding his brother dead, blames Eliwood and friends.
Hellene will provide Eliwood with the location of the Shrine of Seals if he recovers the Fire Emblem for her, which was 'stolen' by an expert thief. The Fire Emblem is the symbol of Bern, and it is required for her son to be officially identified as the heir to Bern's throne. It turns out that King Desmond gave it to the Black Fang so that his son wouldn't become heir. Not only that, but King Desmond wants his son dead and has struck a pact with Sonia to carry this wish out. Lyn manages to trace the Black Fang to their mountain fortress, where they hear that Jaffar was to carry out a contract to kill Zephiel. In secret, Sonia tells Jaffar to also kill her daughter Nino, who she sees as worthless and stupid. Eliwood returns to the Bern Manse and saves prince Zephiel from a Black Fang assassination, meeting the Mage Nino and the Assassin Jaffar along the way. Hellene then gives them a map to the Shrine of Seals and a Heaven Seal after learning about the night before.
They stop by at the Black Fang's secondary base, the Water Temple, after following Nino and Jaffar there. Sonia kills Brendan, and Limstella absorbs his quintessence for Nergal. After this, Nino confronts Sonia about her parentage, and Sonia reveals that Nino is indeed not really her daughter, but the daughter of a family her and Nergal killed to gain knowledge about Dragons. Eliwood shows up and saves Nino, and finally Sonia is killed. Limstella shows up, but doesn't absorb Sonia's quinessence because she doesn't have any as she was a morph all along.
Eliwood makes it to the Shrine of Seals, where he is attacked by the remaining Reed brother. No one can convince him that it wasn't Eliwood's group who killed his brother, so regrettably he has to be killed. Athos teleports in and takes them into the Shrine to talk to the other remaining legend, the cautious magic user Brammimond. After a conversation with Athos, Brammimond is persuaded to open the seals on the legendary weapons.
Outside the Shrine, Nergal shows up and takes Ninian. He has been fully healed. Athos attempts to kill him, but Nergal has become resistant to Athos's Forblaze. He then leaves, telling them there's nothing they can do to stop him.
Eliwood goes and collects the Blazing Blade, Durandal, from its resting place. Then he is attacked by an Ice Dragon, and Durandal, seemingly activated on its own, slays the Dragon. It turns out that the Ice Dragon was Ninian, whom Nergal had secretly allowed to escape to track Eliwood. Nergal comes to gloat at them, telling Eliwood about how Ninian lost most of her memory when she changed back into Ice Dragon to escape, and that the only thing remaining was her love towards Eliwood. All the while, he's secretly absorbing Ninian's quintessence while Eliwood and friends are too distraught to notice.
Back in Ostia, as Eliwood and friends recuperate, Athos tells them about Nergal's past; Athos encountered Nergal in the desert as a wandering seeker of wisdom. Athos and Nergal were equal in intelligence and soon became fast friends. Soon after, Athos and Nergal came across the legendary city of Arcadia, a city where humans and dragons lived in peace. While Athos studied powerful arcane secrets at Arcadia, Nergal spent his time learning the secrets of acquiring quintessence. This knowledge slowly distorted his soul, until Nergal became the vile fiend that he is now. Athos and the residents of Arcadia, which included the Mamkute Fae, teamed up to defeat Nergal, but he managed to escape at the last second and fled to Bern to regain his strength, taking control of the Black Fang while he was there.
Nergal, back at the Dragon's Gate, feeds Ninian's quintessence into her Dragonstone, and uses it to open the portal. But he feels he doesn't have enough quintessence in order to be able to control dragons. That doesn't matter; Eliwood arrives at the island. He sends Limstella out to deal with him, but it seems Limstella wasn't as capable as he may have hoped.
Nergal channels quintessence from Uhai, Ursula, Darin, Brendan, Lloyd, Linus, Jerme, and Kenneth, whom were only a few of the people Limstella and he had absorbed, and creates supercharged morph versions of them, and waits for Eliwood to die against them. Nergal tells Athos that he now hates him, and that he has learned that you can't trust your friends, because they will stab you in the back. Eliwood retorts by calling Nergal a fool. He then says that even as Athos struck him down, he didn't feel nothing; his heart was ripped in two, and Nergal is refusing to realize this. He then tells Nergal that even now, he feels nothing but pity for him, and will end this right now, in hopes of bringing back the man Nergal used to be. Nergal then sends his morphs out to destroy Eliwood, but unfortunately for him, Eliwood is more powerful than he had hoped, and they all fall, their souls being freed as they went. Then Nergal himself comes out to try and destroy them, but he finally dies.
But first, he summons Dragons.
Three Fire Dragons emerge from the Dragon's Gate. Athos attempted to stop them, but he couldn't get anywhere near them. At this point Brammimond showed up and resurrects Ninian, who uses her ice powers to kill two and severely wound the third. Eliwood and friends took the fight to the last Dragon, and managed to slay it.
The battle is finally won, but Archsage Athos, who joins Eliwood's team in the final chapter, passes away peacefully.
Hector's History
Hector's game is almost the same as Eliwood's, but with a few changes. First, the viewpoint has changed from Eliwood to Hector, meaning Hector is the main character. The characters Uther and Oswin play larger roles as well. Several story elements and cut scenes are changed. Other changes include different troops and troop placement in the chapters. Because Hector mode is unlocked after beating Eliwood's story, Hector mode is more difficult than Eliwood's. Also included in Hector's story are two characters not found in Eliwood's mode: Farina, the pegasus knight, and Karla, the swordmaster.

It is the seventh game of the Fire Emblem series and the first to be released in both North America and Europe (where it was marketed under the title Fire Emblem).

The Whole History
Lyn's Tale
The game's narrative starts in the plains of Sacae. The player character, a tactician whose default name is Mark, is found lying unconscious by a girl named Lyndis (more commonly known as Lyn). After a short series of events, Mark and Lyn meet the Cavaliers Kent and Sain, who reveal that Lyn is the daughter of Hassar and Marquess Caelin's daughter, Madelyn--making her heir to the throne of Caelin. However, Lyn's existence is an obstacle to Lundgren, who desires to succeed his brother Hausen as the marquess, and Lundgren will stop at nothing to make make sure that Lyn falls victim to an untimely demise. So begins Lyn's quest to claim her rightful position as heir to the Caelin throne. Before setting out for Caelin, Lyn, Kent and Sain visit a temple in order to pray before the Mani Katti, a sacred blade. The temple is under attack by a group of bandits led by Glass, who desires to steal the Mani Katti. However, the sword contains spirits that will only allow one of pure heart to wield it. After defeating the bandits and rescuing the priest, Lyn discovers that she is the chosen wielder of the Mani Katti.
Lyn travels from the plains of Sacae to Lundgren's stronghold in a series of 10 chapters. Over time, Lyn meets a variety of companions including the frail-yet-potent Pegasus Knight Florina, the social Archer Wil, the devoted Fighter Dorcas, the uptight Mage Erk, the feisty Cleric Serra, the happy-go-lucky Thief Matthew, the quiet Nomad Rath, the mysterious Bard Nils, the pious Monk Lucius, and the former Caelin Knight Wallace. After the conclusion of this story, the player will proceed from the beginning of either Eliwood or Hector's Tale.
When playing the game for the first time, Lyn's Tale will serve as a tutorial and many actions will be mandatory. After completing the game once, Hard Mode will be selectable. In Hard Mode, the player is given the freedom to play as he or she would at any other point. That is, no moves will be forced in the beginning and Wallace can stay unpromoted.
Eliwood's Tale
Eliwood's story starts a year after Lyn defeated Lundgren.
Eliwood is leaving Pherae to go in search of his missing father, Elbert. As he and his escorts prepare to leave the area, a local village is attacked by bandits led by Groznyi who want to take advantage of Elbert's absence. At that time, you, the tactician, are at the village, and Eliwood acquires your help in order to take down the bandits.
After defeating the bandits, Eliwood heads to Santaruz, which he believes his father likely passed through on his journey. On the outskirts of Santaruz, Eliwood's group is accosted by some bandits hired to kill Eliwood, but Eliwood's friend Hector, the brother of the marquess of Ostia, comes to the rescue. The Santaruz soldiers, however, seem more content to watch the fight, instead of helping Pherae's heir. Closer to Santaruz, they are then attacked by members of the Black Fang. Eventually getting to Santaruz Castle, Eliwood is anxious to ask Santaruz's Lord Helman as to why these attacks are happening. To their shock, Eliwood's group finds him clinging to life, having been stabbed by an assassin. With his dying words, Lord Helman tells them to find Darin, Marquess of Laus, saying that "he knows all." Helman then advises them to "beware the Black Fang," and with that, he perishes.
Eliwood then journeys to Laus, which is preparing a rebellion against Ostia. In a large battle, Eliwood and his group capture Darin's son Erik, however, Darin flees the castle during the battle. After the rebellion is quelled, Erik provides Eliwood with answers to some of his questions. It seems that Eliwood's father, Marquess Pherae, was one of the lords that supported Darin's rebellion. A mysterious man named Ephidel introduced the whole idea of rebellion in the first place, according to Erik. Eliwood doesn't believe that his father could have supported such a plan, and continues to search for Darin.
A couple of days later, Eliwood is informed that Castle Caelin has fallen to an attack from the remains of Laus's army, so Eliwood, fearing that his friend Lyn (who he helped during her story) might have been killed. To save Lyn, Eliwood rushes to the castle's rescue. His small army meets up with Lyn and four of her allies, and they decide to work together to capture the castle. After a long battle to get the castle under Caelin control, peace is restored to the area... but Darin and Ephidel escape again.
Eliwood and Hector come upon the Ostian spy Leila, who is working undercover in the Black Fang and is Matthew's best friend and fellow spy in service to Lord Uther. She informs them that the Black Fang is responsible for all that has happened. Although the Black Fang used to be a organization with mostly noble intentions, it is being used now by Nergal, a mysterious man who wants to start war in Lycia for unknown reasons. They also find out that Elbert is being held captive at the Dragon's Gate, a place on Valor island, also known as the 'Dread Isle', because all those who set sail for the island never returned.
Lyn, Hector, and Eliwood set sail to the island with the help of the pirate captain Fargus (though Lyn isn't happy about asking a bunch of pirates for help, as she hates bandits, no matter what kind they are.) Along the way, they find Nils's sister Ninian in a small drifting boat. She unfortunately has amnesia, and has no idea where she is, why she was there, or even who she is. Nils isn't with her, which Lyn finds highly suspicious. Eliwood and company reach the island, but along the way to the Dragon's Gate, the group runs into Leila, but she is already dead. Jaffar, one of the Four Fangs of the Black Fang, killed her after her disguise was revealed. Matthew vows to avenge her in any way he can as the group plunges into the fog surrounding the entrance to the island.
After finding the Dragon's Gate, a huge place that the Dragons created during the Scouring. Ephidel then teleports in and takes Ninian, so they assualt the temple to rescue her. Here they face off against Darin, and he is finally slain. Eliwood finds his father near the back of the temple, but before they can take him out, Jaffar appears and stops them from leaving. Then Nergal and Ephidel come in with the captured Ninian. Nergal absorbs Elbert's soul, and feeds it into Ninian, forcing her to open the Gate. This will allow Dragons to cross over from their new world, back to this one. As Nergal believes he can control Dragons, he believes he will be able to take over the world with them, taking their life-force, known as quintessence, to make himself stronger.
But as a Dragon is starting to emerge from out of the portal, Nils comes in and brings Ninian to her senses. She immediately closes the portal, causing the dragon, halfway through the portal, to disintegrate...taking Ephidel down with it. Nergal attempts to take Ninian and Nils, but the nearly-dead Elbert manages to find enough strength to deal him a great wound, at which point he flees to recover. Elbert then dies in his son's arms.
Eliwood and company head back to the mainland to inform Marquess Uther, Hector's older brother and Marquess of Ostia, of what has been happening. On the way, they are ambushed in Badon by a group of Black Fang, but they prevail. As they prepare to meet Uther in a fortress on the outskirts of Ostia, they are attacked by a group of mercenaries. To make matters worse, Nils collapses, having given too much of his energy to Ninian previously. Ninian tells them not to move him at all, and thus they find themselves having to defend Nils until Uther arrives. Through the help of a defecting mercenary named Heath, Eliwood and company learn that the attacking group, lead by Commander Eubans, used to work for Laus. Eubans's forces hoped to join the Black Fang if they succeed in killing Eliwood, as Laus is now defunct, but they fail and flee when Eubans falls.
Uther is troubled by the news of dragons, and suggests Eliwood go to the Nabata desert to meet a person he will only refer to as the 'living legend'. This legend turns out to be Archsage Athos, one of the veterans of the Scouring, whose lifespan has been drastically lengthened because of his deep connection to magic. After Eliwood assists a mysterious Sage in the desert named Pent, who turns out to be Athos's student, Erk's mentor, and the count of Reglay, leads them back to a nearby temple. Athos tells them that they will need to find the Shrine of Seals in Bern if they want to stand a chance against Nergal.
After Athos teleports the group back to Pherae, Eliwood reunites with his mother, Lady Eleanora, but she already knows of her husband Elbert's death, as she sent her vassal Isadora to Eliwood's aid when he fought Oleg in Badon. After staying the night, the group sets out in disguise as travelers toward Bern.
When they reach Bern, they hear of Prince Zephiel's coming-of-age ceremony, during which Pent and his wife, the beautiful Louise, hatch a plan to ask Queen Hellene of Bern about the location of the Shrine of Seals. While waiting, Legault, a Thief who left the Black Fang and joined Eliwood's group at the Dragon's Gate, suggests that they try to gather more information on the Black Fang. Halfway through their search, they are attacked by one of the Reed Brothers. After subduing him, they persuade him that they're not his enemy, at which point he decides to track Sonia, the woman Nergal is using to control the Black Fang, and discover her intentions. However, Limstella shows up and absorbs his quintessence in order to heal Nergal's wound. The other Reed brother, showing up later and finding his brother dead, blames Eliwood and friends.
Hellene will provide Eliwood with the location of the Shrine of Seals if he recovers the Fire Emblem for her, which was 'stolen' by an expert thief. The Fire Emblem is the symbol of Bern, and it is required for her son to be officially identified as the heir to Bern's throne. It turns out that King Desmond gave it to the Black Fang so that his son wouldn't become heir. Not only that, but King Desmond wants his son dead and has struck a pact with Sonia to carry this wish out. Lyn manages to trace the Black Fang to their mountain fortress, where they hear that Jaffar was to carry out a contract to kill Zephiel. In secret, Sonia tells Jaffar to also kill her daughter Nino, who she sees as worthless and stupid. Eliwood returns to the Bern Manse and saves prince Zephiel from a Black Fang assassination, meeting the Mage Nino and the Assassin Jaffar along the way. Hellene then gives them a map to the Shrine of Seals and a Heaven Seal after learning about the night before.
They stop by at the Black Fang's secondary base, the Water Temple, after following Nino and Jaffar there. Sonia kills Brendan, and Limstella absorbs his quintessence for Nergal. After this, Nino confronts Sonia about her parentage, and Sonia reveals that Nino is indeed not really her daughter, but the daughter of a family her and Nergal killed to gain knowledge about Dragons. Eliwood shows up and saves Nino, and finally Sonia is killed. Limstella shows up, but doesn't absorb Sonia's quinessence because she doesn't have any as she was a morph all along.
Eliwood makes it to the Shrine of Seals, where he is attacked by the remaining Reed brother. No one can convince him that it wasn't Eliwood's group who killed his brother, so regrettably he has to be killed. Athos teleports in and takes them into the Shrine to talk to the other remaining legend, the cautious magic user Brammimond. After a conversation with Athos, Brammimond is persuaded to open the seals on the legendary weapons.
Outside the Shrine, Nergal shows up and takes Ninian. He has been fully healed. Athos attempts to kill him, but Nergal has become resistant to Athos's Forblaze. He then leaves, telling them there's nothing they can do to stop him.
Eliwood goes and collects the Blazing Blade, Durandal, from its resting place. Then he is attacked by an Ice Dragon, and Durandal, seemingly activated on its own, slays the Dragon. It turns out that the Ice Dragon was Ninian, whom Nergal had secretly allowed to escape to track Eliwood. Nergal comes to gloat at them, telling Eliwood about how Ninian lost most of her memory when she changed back into Ice Dragon to escape, and that the only thing remaining was her love towards Eliwood. All the while, he's secretly absorbing Ninian's quintessence while Eliwood and friends are too distraught to notice.
Back in Ostia, as Eliwood and friends recuperate, Athos tells them about Nergal's past; Athos encountered Nergal in the desert as a wandering seeker of wisdom. Athos and Nergal were equal in intelligence and soon became fast friends. Soon after, Athos and Nergal came across the legendary city of Arcadia, a city where humans and dragons lived in peace. While Athos studied powerful arcane secrets at Arcadia, Nergal spent his time learning the secrets of acquiring quintessence. This knowledge slowly distorted his soul, until Nergal became the vile fiend that he is now. Athos and the residents of Arcadia, which included the Mamkute Fae, teamed up to defeat Nergal, but he managed to escape at the last second and fled to Bern to regain his strength, taking control of the Black Fang while he was there.
Nergal, back at the Dragon's Gate, feeds Ninian's quintessence into her Dragonstone, and uses it to open the portal. But he feels he doesn't have enough quintessence in order to be able to control dragons. That doesn't matter; Eliwood arrives at the island. He sends Limstella out to deal with him, but it seems Limstella wasn't as capable as he may have hoped.
Nergal channels quintessence from Uhai, Ursula, Darin, Brendan, Lloyd, Linus, Jerme, and Kenneth, whom were only a few of the people Limstella and he had absorbed, and creates supercharged morph versions of them, and waits for Eliwood to die against them. Nergal tells Athos that he now hates him, and that he has learned that you can't trust your friends, because they will stab you in the back. Eliwood retorts by calling Nergal a fool. He then says that even as Athos struck him down, he didn't feel nothing; his heart was ripped in two, and Nergal is refusing to realize this. He then tells Nergal that even now, he feels nothing but pity for him, and will end this right now, in hopes of bringing back the man Nergal used to be. Nergal then sends his morphs out to destroy Eliwood, but unfortunately for him, Eliwood is more powerful than he had hoped, and they all fall, their souls being freed as they went. Then Nergal himself comes out to try and destroy them, but he finally dies.
But first, he summons Dragons.
Three Fire Dragons emerge from the Dragon's Gate. Athos attempted to stop them, but he couldn't get anywhere near them. At this point Brammimond showed up and resurrects Ninian, who uses her ice powers to kill two and severely wound the third. Eliwood and friends took the fight to the last Dragon, and managed to slay it.
The battle is finally won, but Archsage Athos, who joins Eliwood's team in the final chapter, passes away peacefully.
Hector's History
Hector's game is almost the same as Eliwood's, but with a few changes. First, the viewpoint has changed from Eliwood to Hector, meaning Hector is the main character. The characters Uther and Oswin play larger roles as well. Several story elements and cut scenes are changed. Other changes include different troops and troop placement in the chapters. Because Hector mode is unlocked after beating Eliwood's story, Hector mode is more difficult than Eliwood's. Also included in Hector's story are two characters not found in Eliwood's mode: Farina, the pegasus knight, and Karla, the swordmaster.
