Mercenaries (Japanese: 傭兵 Mercenary) is the Prologue chapter of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. This chapter serves as an easy introduction to new players, while also setting up the circumstances of the main character, Ike. Training to become a professional mercenary, Ike faces off with his friend, Boyd, then his father, Greil. During this chapter, the player will be offered their first tutorials, narrated by Anna, to explain the basic gameplay of the Fire Emblem series.
Plot
- Main article:
Mercenaries/Script
The chapter begins with Ike and Greil sparring in the woods. Mist runs in, and Ike tries to take the opportunity to strike a distracted Greil. Instead, he lunges too far and gets hit square in the back with a training sword, falling to the ground unconscious. While knocked out, Ike has a vision of his mother Elena lying by his bedside smiling at him. He awakes to hear a flower-picking Mist humming the song their mother used as a lullaby and smiling at him the same way their mother did.
Ike stands up, greeted by his sister, who assumedly doctored his battle wounds. Ike challenges Greil to another sparring match, eager to win this time, but Mist doesn’t like the idea. Boyd appears, looking for Mist, who tells him that he just missed the wonderful opportunity to see Ike out cold. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Greil suggests that Ike spar with Boyd before challenging him again.
After defeating Boyd, Ike receives a Vulnerary from Mist and proceeds to fight his father once more. After defeating his father, Ike asks if he was holding back. Admitting the truth, Greil adds that if Ike could tell the difference, then his skills are improving. Boyd tries to interject, saying that he too was holding back, but Mist shuts him up, calling him a liar. Greil promises Ike that tomorrow will be his first day as a full-fledged mercenary.

Clearing this chapter is fairly simple. On the Normal and Hard difficulties, Boyd will not move to attack Ike, although Greil will move on the Normal and Hard difficulties. Ike must move toward Boyd, and can, on the second turn, make the first move. Boyd himself can be easily taken down in two hits, and Mist will give Ike a Vulnerary to heal his wounds after his defeat. Ike can then move to attack Greil, who will most likely defeat Ike if he has not healed using the Vulnerary, but can be taken down with three good hits.
Trivia
