A stone bridge leading up the tall rocky mountain.
This stone bridge seems to stretch to the heavens, as it spirals around.
From the rocks fearful roaring and breathing sounds can be heard, as if the mountain was alive.
The Dragons’ Altar…
It is an ancient ruin of the dragon tribe, and the place where the Divine Dragon King, Narga, sealed away the Earth Dragons.
Now, after a period of 600 years, the Earth Dragons are currently awakening, and countless evil demons are being born…

Pre-battle preparations

Marth:
What is this strange air?
It feels like it’s full of evil spirits.
Jeigan:
That is true…
My body appears to be frozen.
These are the evil spirits of the Earth Dragons.
Your highness, it seems we can’t have everybody enter ahead.
Since we don’t know what will happen, please choose carefully who to take with you.
Marth:
I hope to at least take the people who are worried about the four sisters.
Jeigan:
Mmm… There’s no avoiding that.
But how many people will survive?
I bet this will be a fierce battle.

Pre-battle

Gato:
Prince Marth.
The altar is probably full of crazed barbarians and Demon Dragons that have lost their mind.
They are being controlled by Garnef’s magic, and will definitely attack you.
The dark priests that serve Garnef also have fearful power.
As this battle lengthens it will become fiercer, but don’t stop and keep charging forwards!
You must defeat Garnef, and recover from him the divine Falchion sword that was stolen from Aritia.
Without the Falchion, you won’t be able to defeat Mediuth…

Chapter end

Jeigan:
Your highness, the wall in front of us has collapsed!
