[[Marth]] and his entourage take a moment to rest after escaping the castle. [[Cain]] confirms that King [[Cornelius]] was killed in [[Gra]], and reveals that [[Falchion (Archanea)|Falchion]] was stolen and their troops massacred. Cornelius's last request was for Marth to take up his sword, save [[Archanea (continent)|Archanea]], and lead [[Altea]] to prosperity. Marth and Cain, the latter of whom is suffering from survivor's guilt, vow to exact revenge on [[Dolhr]] and particularly Gra.

After defeating a regiment of Gra troops stationed outside the castle, [[Malledus]] arrives. When he reveals that [[Elice]] is remaining in [[Altea]], Marth attempts to return to the castle to rescue her, but Malledus stops him. He reminds Marth that he is the sole hope for Archanea and that he must live to return and reclaim his nation. Marth begrudgingly relents.

Your new units are Cain, another good Cavalier, and Jagen, a Paladin. While Jagen may seem strong due to his Silver Lance, his non-existent growths ensure he will not be contributing much outside the first few chapters beyond emergencies. The houses provide gameplay tips that are useful for novices, but can be safely ignored by veterans. This chapter is where things start to get somewhat interesting; your units can be overwhelmed and die in humiliating fashion if you are too reckless, and the Mages at the end can take serious chunks out of your HP. Try to take on the enemies one at a time if at all possible, and you should have little trouble. Remember to avoid giving kills to whoever you wish to make the Decoy in Prologue IV.
'''New Units:'''
* '''[[Cain]]:''' A reliable [[Cavalier]]. His poor lance rank hurts him less on Normal due to lower enemy quality.
* '''[[Jagen]]:''' A [[Paladin]]. Despite his poor growths, his solid base stats and weapon proficiency make him valuable, especially in Normal difficulty due to the less challenging enemies.
 
'''Map Features:'''
* Houses offer gameplay tips beneficial for beginners. Experienced players can skip them.


'''Strategy:'''
* The challenge level increases in this chapter. Being too aggressive can lead to your units' defeats, especially from the potent [[Mage]]s near the end.
* Engage enemies individually when possible for a smoother experience.
* Refrain from giving kill shots to the unit you plan to use as the Decoy in [[Prologue IV]].
