Map opening

After being tragically defeated by Garnef’s dark magic, Maph,
Prince Marth finally marches his army south, in order to fulfil his hope of reclaiming his homeland of Aritia.
The Kingdom of Aritia is a beautiful country, surrounded by rich water and greenery.
But, after being occupied by Durhua, the country has fall into ruin, and its citizens live in eternal suffering.
Right now, they can finally welcome the days of freedom.

Pre-battle

Nina:
Marth, so this is your homeland, Aritia?
Marth:
Yes.
It has already been 2 years since it was occupied by the Durhua Empire.
That day…
I managed to escape to Talis, thanks to my sister, Ellis’s help.
But she was captured by the Durhua Empire in my place.
Right now, where on earth could she be?
…I must rescue her from their hands.
Okay, everybody move out!
For the freedom and peace of our homeland, Aritia!!

Villages

Male villager:
Be wary of the Devil Sword.
It has tremendous might, but if you’re unskilled you could bring about your own death.

Auntie:
The eastern prison is holding a young foreigner called Chainy.
It is rumoured that he has an impressive ability.

Grandmother:
Princess Ellis was taken away by a bishop called Garnef, and now her whereabouts are unknown.
Ah, Princess, you are so pitiful…
Please be safe and well.

Auntie:
Oh, you’re the Aritian knights.
It’s so great that you’ve finally returned.
Now this country can become peaceful, like it used to be.

Male villager:
If you have a Member Card, you can enter Secret Shops.
But, where those shops are, I don’t really know.

Grandfather:
Please listen carefully, this is very important.
To the south west are two villages.
At the western village resides a paladin called Alan.
At the eastern village resides a hero called Samson.
Those two are both very strong men.
However, the two villages don’t get on well with one another.
So, only one of them can become an ally.
Please think carefully before making a decision.

Grandfather:
The Raman temple houses three Orbs containing great power.
The LightStar and Earth Orbs.
Only once they are in your hands, can you know what their mysterious powers are…

Recruiting Samson

Samson:
I am Samson.
I used to be a famous gladiator.
However, for certain reasons, I now reside here.
I am very happy to be able to serve you.
But this village and its neighbouring village haven’t got on well for a long time.
Once they know that your highness has visited this village, they will close their village’s gate.
You should give up thinking of trying to recruit Alan.

Recruiting Alan

Alan:
I am Alan.
I used to work as the captain of a knights group.
However, for certain reasons, I now reside here.
I am very happy to be able to serve you.
But this village and its neighbouring village haven’t got on well for a long time.
Once they know that your highness has visited this village, they will close their village’s gate.
You should give up thinking of trying to recruit Samson.

Recruiting Chainy

Chainy:
Oh, Aritia’s prince.
Thanks to you I was able to escape.
I am Chainy.
I came here from a faraway country.
I have the ability to transform into any person.
After discovering my ability, the Durhua Empire tried to force me to join them.
But I didn’t want to do their evil deeds.
Since you helped me, I will come and help you.
Please watch over me.

Versus Chainy

Chainy:
Hey! Wait, I’m not an enemy.
Don’t fight me!

Versus Holstat

Holstat:
Aritia’s fallen soldiers still live?
But as long as I’m here, I won’t let you enter this castle!

Holstat falls

Holstat:
General Camus, I leave the rest to you…

Chapter end

Marth:
Soldiers of Aritia, and the warriors that have fought alongside us, I am truly grateful to you all.
Thanks to your efforts, we have finally reclaimed our homeland of Aritia from the hands of Durhua.
But, there are probably many enemies waiting for us inside the castle.
Everybody, don’t be careless!
