The story begins with [[Alm]], a youth of the village of [[Ram]], finishing his sword training with an retired general named [[Mycen]]. Alm sees a group of villagers gathering near [[Lukas]], a [[soldier]], who says that a General [[Desaix]] has captured [[Zofia]]'s castle and killed the king. Lukas is part of a liberation force, and has come to ask General Mycen to help them. | The story begins with [[Alm]], a youth of the village of [[Ram]], finishing his sword training with an retired general named [[Mycen]].

When Alm asks Mycen, Mycen angrily denies. Still, Alm tells Lukas that he will join in place of Mycen.

In Thief Shrine, [[Silque]], a priestess of Mila, is rescued and joins them. | ||
Soon Alm's party begins to fight soldiers employed by General Desaix. At the Southern Fort, [[Clair]], a [[Pegasus Knight|pegasus knight]] of Zofia joins Alm. She says her older brother [[Clive]] is the leader of the liberation force. | Soon Alm's party begins to fight soldiers employed by General Desaix.

[[ | [[Forsyth]] states that Desaix has been seeking help from northern [[Rigel]]. Alm, surprised, states that this violates the Gods' Pact, and that Mila would never allow this. However, according to Forsyth, it is rumored that Mila has disappeared, which may explain the appearance of monsters. He and Python join Alm's group. | ||
Finally, Alm travels to the Zofia gate, where powerful enemy troops are gathered. Desaix and [[Slayde]] are the two generals in charge. One is defeated, depending on which the player chooses, and they successfully liberate the castle. Thanked by many of the citizens, Alm goes to the roof and sees Mycen again. Mycen tells Alm to save Valentia, and mentions a red-haired girl... | Finally, Alm travels to the Zofia gate, where powerful enemy troops are gathered.

The item/weapon system's dynamic in ''Gaiden'' is different from all other games. [[Durability]] does not exist at all, consumable items do not exist with the only non-weapon items being equipment, and only a very small number of each item/weapon exists; for instance, there is only one [[Javelin]] in the entire game. All units have one [[inventory]] slot, so between that and the very limited item availability, unique weapons must be weighed by the player on who needs them most, as weapons also compete for inventory space with shields and other beneficial items like the [[Angel Ring]]. If a unit does not have a weapon in their inventory, they are still capable of attacking because they revert to having a weak "default" weapon which does not take up the inventory slot. | The item/weapon system's dynamic in ''Gaiden'' is different from all other games.

The magic system is also radically different, and is not tied to items or weapons used by units at all. Instead, acting more like a traditional Japanese RPG, units in magical classes learn new magic spells as their [[level]] increases, and can use them relatively freely without having to worry about durability. Instead, every spell (except [[Nosferatu]]) costs a set number of [[hit point]]s to cast, with stronger spells costing more HP. Magic is divided into two categories: [[black magic]] consists of offensive spells and is primarily used by [[Mage]]s, equivalent to [[Tome (magic)|tomes]], while [[white magic]] consists of healing and support spells and is primarily used by [[Cleric]]s, equivalent to [[Staff | The magic system is also radically different, and is not tied to items or weapons used by units at all.

At face value, ''Gaiden'' is technically the shortest game in the series, with only five chapters. However, each chapter is actually a long segment of gameplay which charts a journey across a stretch of the world map, with many individual battles occuring in each. | At face value, ''Gaiden'' is technically the shortest game in the series, with only five chapters.
