Role
Cain is originally sent to the battlefield alongside King Cornelius, but the Altean army is betrayed by Gra, and Cornelius is killed, breathing his dying words to Cain. Cain then limps back to Altea with severe wounds and encounters Marth, Abel, Frey, and Jagen. Although Marth wants to give Cain immediate medical attention, Jagen refuses until the group has escaped from the castle. Cain then gives Marth his father's dying words and accompanies him for the rest of his quest (unless he is chosen to be the decoy in Prologue IV).

In the Bible, Cain was the first son of Adam and Eve, the second being Abel.[2] Cain and Abel are counterparts as the Biblical Cain and Abel were. Cain tilled the ground while Abel raised sheep. Out of jealousy for God preferring his brother Abel's offerings, he killed him.
