These brigands are after me. If they’re attacking the castle, it’s because of me. So I must help if I can…

Blood of Pride (Japanese: 誇り高き血 Proud Blood) is the sixth chapter in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade.
Plot
- Main article: Blood of Pride/Script
Lyn has finally arrived in Lycia and stops in Araphen to request supplies from the marquess of the region. However, before they can receive the promised aid of Marquess Araphen that Kent arranged for, the castle is set ablaze by the mercenaries sent by Lundgren.
Lyn is caught off guard by one of the mercenaries but is saved just in time by Rath, a member of the castle guard. Despite Rath’s insistence that Lyn flee, Lyn insists on fighting alongside him since she is the reason why the mercenaries are attacking the castle. Rath reveals that there is a secret tunnel that leads to the castle that if opened will enable him and his men to ensure the marquess’s safety in a timely manner. Lyn quickly realizes that she has no keys or a thief, preventing her from opening the doors to the rooms where the triggers for the secret passage are located. Fortunately, Lyn finds Matthew in a nearby house, a thief willing to lend his services.
After defeating Bool and opening the secret passage, Rath and his troops manage to suppress the mercenaries. Marquess Araphen requests a meeting with Lyn and co. where he informs the group that he is rescinding his previous offer of supplies due to the annoyance he feels with being caught in Caelin’s inheritance dispute and due to his personal bias against those of Sacaen lineage. Marquess Araphen also does not want to sour his relationship with Lundgren, who he believes will succeed in becoming the next Marquess of Caelin. Lyn refuses to beg for aid from a man who disparages her lineage so freely and takes her leave of the marquess. After Lyn departs, Marquess Araphen rants to himself that he would have lent Lyn the aid he promised had she merely shed a few tears and acted more humble. Rath confronts Marquess Araphen on his treatment of Lyn and his attitudes towards the people of Sacae and becomes so disgusted with him, he leaves Araphen to assist Lyn on her journey.
