The money was used to fund an army, which, along with three stolen weapons, was used to conquer the world. The thief that went on to become the king of Archanea had the shield, which brought him such good fortune, it became the emblem of his royal family.
— Gotoh

Adrah (Japanese: アドラ Adrah) was the founder of the Holy Kingdom of Archanea.

Biography

In the year −10 AC, millennia after the collapse of the dragonkin civilization, Adrah entered the Fane of Raman and stole four items: the Binding Shield, Gradivus, Mercurius, and Parthia.[1] Adrah removed the five spheres from the Binding Shield and sold them, using the funds to raise an army.[1] Wielding the three weapons which would later become the regalia of Archanea, within ten years[2] he had conquered the entire region and unified the city-states which were set among the dragon's ruins under his rule, declaring himself king.[3] He kept the orbless remains of the Binding Shield as the crest of the kingdom,[1] now known as the Fire Emblem.
