Forblaze (Japanese: フォルブレイズ Forblaze), also known as the Infernal Truth (Japanese: 業火の理 Hellfire's Truth), is an anima tome introduced in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. It is one of the legendary weapons of the continent Elibe, forged in the Scouring to battle dragons, and was wielded by Athos of the Eight Generals.
History
As with the other eight legendary weapons, Forblaze was forged by humans during the Scouring for use by Athos of the Eight Generals, and during battle its power was part of the cause of the Ending Winter. After the Scouring came to an end, Athos sealed it away in a temple in his new home, Arcadia.[1]
When Bramimond released the seal on the Divine Weapons to permit Eliwood and Hector to use them to defeat Nergal, Athos collected Forblaze from its resting place and used it to assist them in the fight. After Athos's death, Forblaze was placed back in its resting place, unlockable only by residents of Arcadia.[2] Twenty years later, after driving out the Bern forces led by Oates which occupied the temple, Roy obtained the tome with the assistance of Sophia, and used it in the war on Bern and the War Dragons in its service.
