Chapter 1: The Warrior of Fiana



On the World Map

After escaping with his life from the collapsing Lenster Castle, Leaf, together with his loyal knight Finn and his daughter Nanna, proceeded to defeat the Thracian forces and take control of Northern Thracia.

Shaking off pursuits from the eastern Granbell Empire, Leaf fled to various cities such as Alster and Tahra before finally arriving at Fiana, a small village on the eastern coast of Thracia.

Fiana was an independent village run by a swordswoman named Eyvel, and she led a band of fighters to protect the neighboring villages from bandit attacks. Eyvel gave Leaf and his comrades a warm welcome, and Leaf gradually grew up among other youths who resided in Fiana.

And now, in the Gran year 776…

Opening Cutscene

Reidric:
“Have you found the prince?”

Wiseman:
“No, my lord. We’ve searched the village, but the prince is nowhere to be found.”

Reidric:
“You fool! We don’t have much time. I know that the prince is here. Round up the villagers and make them talk! We need to find him!”

Wiseman:
“Yes, we are already doing that, my lord. But the villagers say that he isn’t here. He apparently left with the Fiana Militia to go save some village from a pirate attack.”

Reidric:
“Fiana Militia? What is that?”

Wiseman:
“This village was originally the headquarters of a large group of brigands. A little over a decade ago, a traveling mercenary named Eyvel cleared out the bandits and took over the village. She then established a militia to protect the nearby villages from bandit attacks. Apparently she’s quite skilled with her sword…”

Reidric:
“Hmm… She could be a problem.”

Wiseman:
“No worries, my lord. We have already taken Eyvel’s daughter hostage. We’ve also captured the daughter of Finn, the knight defending the prince. They’ll have no choice but to give in to us now.”

Reidric:
“Well, not bad, for you. Good, I shall take the girls back to Manster with me. You stay here and wait for the rebels. Make sure the capture the prince when he returns!”

Wiseman:
“Yes, my lord. Someone! Bring the girls here.”

Reidric:
“What is your name, girl?”

Mareeta:
“Hmph…”

Reidric:
“Ha, stoutness is cute as well. And the other one… Ah, so you’re Finn’s daughter. I understand your mother is a princess from Nodion. I see you haven’t lost your dignity living in a place like this.”

Nanna:
“……”

Reidric:
“Well, I’ve gotten some pleasant surprises to take home with me. Wiseman, I will now be returning to Manster. I trust you can handle the rest.”

Wiseman:
“Yes, my lord.”

(Scene switches to Leaf)

Eyvel:
“What’s happening? Something’s wrong…”

Halvan:
“I’ll go take a look, Lady Eyvel. Pleast wait here.”

Halvan:
“Lady Eyvel, the village is filled with Imperial troops. It looks like they attacked while we were gone…”

Othin:
“What? Damn, those bastards! Lady Eyvel, let’s go!”

Halvan:
“Calm down, Othin. If we just run in without thinking, we’ll just get beaten down.”

Othin:
“Why’re you so calm, Halvan!? Our village is being attacked!”

Eyvel:
“No, Halvan is right. Calm yourself, Othin. Lord Leaf, it looks like the Empire has sought us out. Please make your escape while we distract the Imperial troops. Finn, take care of him…”

Leaf:
“Eyvel! Nanna is still in the village. I can’t just leave her and run.”

Eyvel:
“I will ensure her safety. Don’t worry.”

Leaf:
“No, that’s not it… I’ve chosen not to run any more.”

Eyvel:
“Finn, what about you? Are you going allow Lord Leaf get himself in danger?”

Finn:
“Lord Leaf is already 15 years old. He is old enough to make his own decisions. As his servant, I will respect his judgment and follow his commands.”

Eyvel:
“15… Well, we did bring him with us to defeat the pirates. Fine, If Finn says so, it’s all right with me.”

Othin:
“Well, are we done? Let’s hurry up and go kick their asses!”

Eyvel:
“Yes. But be careful. Although they are Imperial troops, the lower-ranking ones are civilians forced into the army. If you can, don’t kill them, take their weapons and let them escape. Understood?”

Othin:
“But we can hurt them until they submit to us, right? They’ll kill us if we don’t.”

Eyvel:
“Yes, but don’t overdo it, all right? Especially you, Othin.”

Othin:
“Come on, don’t you trust me, Lady Eyvel?”

Eyvel:
“All right, let’s go. Show them the Fiana Militia’s strength!”

3rd Turn

Tanya:
“Dad, the battle’s already started.”

Dagda:
“This isn’t good… Eyvel’s strong, but I don’t know whether she canhold her own against Imperial troops. Let’s go.”

Marty:
“Here we go again…”

Conversation (Eyvel, Dagda)

Eyvel:
“Dagda!? You came.”

Dagda:
“Ah, Eyvel. I’m glad you’re safe. Still… What business does the Empire have all the way out here? That kid…?”

Eyvel:
“Yes… That boy is actually the heir to now demised Kingdom of Lenster. I was hiding him from his pursuers. I’m sorry I kept it from you…”

Dagda:
“I thought it was something like that. But no matter, I don’t mind as long as I can fight against the Empire.”

Conversation (Othin, Tanya)

Othin:
“Tanya? What the hell are you doing out here?”

Tanya:
“Othin!? Can’t you see? I came to help you guys out.”

Othin:
“Help us out, eh? Well, we’re not so desperate as to ask for help from a kid. Now off you go.”

Tanya:
“Who’re you calling a kid!? You’re the kid! Fine, I’m going. I never wanted to come here anyway. Hmph!”

House (Right)

(If you use Halvan)

Patricia:
“Oh, big brother! Here, I’ll give you this. You could use it, right?”

Halvan:
“An axe?”

Patricia:
“It’s a nice axe, isn’t it? I got it from a strange old lady who came out of the lake in the mountain. But I can’t really use it, so take it.”

(If you don’t use Halvan)

Patricia:
“Have you seen my big brother, Halvan? I hope he’s okay…”

House (Lower)

(If you use Othin)

Othin’s father:
“Othin, you working hard? You better not be bein’
a nuisance to Lady Eyvel.”

Othin:
“Come on, spare me the lectures, old man.”

Father:
“Ha, haven’t fixed that foul mouth of yours, have you, kid? Well anyway, here. This is what you came for, right?”

Othin:
“Yeah, thanks! I don’t feel right unless I fight with this axe.”

Father:
“Stupid kid. I’ve never heard of someone forgetting his weapons to a battle.”

Othin:
“Hey, I told you I don’t need the lectures.”

Father:
“Hmph. Well, what’re you waiting for? Go and help Lady Eyvel!”

Othin:
“Yeah, I’m going!”

(If you don’t use Othin)

Father:
“Where is that stupid Othin! Is he fooling around somewhere again?”

Fighting Wiseman

Wiseman:
“If I die, so do the hostages! Don’t you understand that!?”

Defeating Wiseman

Wiseman:
“Damn… You’ll…regret this…”

Releasing Wiseman

Wiseman:
“D-Damn! I’ll be back!”

After beating the map

(If Eyvel is not captured)

Leaf:
“Nanna! Mareeta! Where are you? Answer me!”

Eyvel:
“They appear to have been taken away by Lord Reidric.”

Leaf:
“What!? Then they’re in Manster?”

Eyvel:
“They’ve been taken as hostages. It’s exactly what that Reidric would think of doing…”

Leaf:
“Damn… Eyvel, let’s go! We have to rescue them.”

Eyvel:
“But Lord Leaf…”

Leaf:
“Eyvel, they were captured in my place. I’m not a child any more. I don’t want to sacrfice anyone any more for my own safety!”

Eyvel:
“…Very well. We will leave tomorrow morning. It will be a tough journey… Please make sure you get your rest.”

(If Eyvel is captured)

Leaf:
“Nanna! Mareeta! Where are you? Answer me!”

Man:
“Lord Leaf, you’re all right! Forgive me, we couldn’t protect Lady Nanna…”

Leaf:
“Nanna? What happened to her?”

Man:
“The Imperial troops took her away. Mareeta was trying to let her escape, but they were both captured in the end…”

Leaf:
“Where were they taken?”

Man:
“I honestly don’t know… …Oh, one of the soldiers was saying that they were returning to Manster, so perhaps…”

Leaf:
“Manster? All right. Please don’t worry, I’ll save both Nanna and Mareeta, and Eyvel as well!”
