===Prologue===
Long ago, the continent of [[Archanea (continent)|Archanea]] was invaded by the [[Dolhr]] Empire, led by the Shadow Dragon, [[Medeus]], and the people lived in fear and despair. However, a miracle occurred. [[Anri]], a youth from [[Altea]], slew the Shadow Dragon using [[Falchion (Archanea)|Falchion]], The Blade of Light. The Kingdom of Archanea was restored and the world entered an age of peace. But 100 years later... Medeus was resurrected. He joined forces with the Dark Sorcerer [[Gharnef]], who was also the usurper emperor of [[Khadein]] and who shared his ambitions of ruling the world, as well as the kingdoms of [[Macedon]] and [[Grust]], and launched an attack on [[Archanea (country)|Archanea]], Altea, [[Aurelis]], and [[Gra]], beginning the long [[War of Shadows]]. [[Cornelius]], the king of Altea and successor of the heroic Anri, left to battle Medeus, with the Falchion in hand. Meanwhile, Cornelius's only son and the prince of Altea, [[Marth]], awaits his father's return as he passes his days with his education and sword training, not knowing that Gra had betrayed Altea, sided with the Dolhr empire, and murdered his father. Gra soldiers attempted to take Marth captive; They were unsuccessful and, after several months and seemingly at the cost of the life of [[Frey]], Marth escaped to [[Talys]], a small island kingdom that was allied to Altea. Marth vowed to one day return to Altea and free his homeland and her people. Very shortly thereafter, Archanea was defeated by Grust's General [[Camus]], and, aside from Princess [[Nyna]], the royal family was wiped out.

After staying at Talys for several years, training himself in the arts of war, and very shortly after General Camus helped Nyna escape Archanea for Aurelis, pirates assaulted Talys and threatened to destroy it's livelihood. Marth, a handful of knights that escaped with him from Altea, and Talys's Princess [[Caeda]] deftly defeated the pirates, and [[Mostyn|the king of Talys]] declared that Marth was now fit to challenge Dolhr. Marth embarked on his legendary quest to reclaim his kingdom and slay Medeus. When Marth set out he first answered the call of Nyna, who was currently in Aurelis resisting the Macedon occupied forces in the country. Marth went to Aurelis to free the war torn country, joining forces with [[Hardin]], the younger brother of Aurelis' king and the guardian of Nyna. After a vicious battle Marth set Aurelis free and had made a valuable ally in Hardin, and his loyal knights.
