— Lilina to Roy

The Blazing Blade (Japanese: 烈火の剣 The Sword of Flame) is the first extra chapter in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. In order to be able to fight Bern's dragons, Roy and his army try to take one of the Legendary Weapons—Durandal, the blazing blade. In order to play this chapter, Lilina must have survived the previous chapter.

Plot

Main article: The Blazing Blade (chapter)/Script

Lilina tells Roy about a cave near Ostia where a dragonslaying weapon is held, and Roy's forces head there to obtain it. The area is infested with bandits under command of Henning, who is surprised to find an army but thinks to defeat them by luring them into lava geysers. Lilina informs Roy that the weapon they are looking for is Durandal – the sword of Roland, one of the Eight Legends – and it cannot be removed from its sheath except by descendants of Roland, so there is no risk of bandits taking it.

Roy's forces then fight the bandits, defeat them, and obtain the Durandal. Roy wonders if he could use it one day, and Lilina jokes that she is unsure. Their conversation is interrupted by Merlinus rushing in and telling them that Bern's wyvern riders have arrived in Ostia.

Roy's troops return to the castle and confront the enemy leader, Narcian; however, the confrontation is interrupted by the arrival of Etrurian forces led by the Mage General Cecilia and the Knight General Perceval. Realizing that he cannot win this battle, Narcian retreats and vows revenge. Perceval tells Roy that he only arrived because his king ordered him to do so, and the king gave the order because Cecilia opposed him until he agreed to help Lycia; Perceval then departs for Etruria, leaving Cecilia to "take care of the loose ends". Cecilia tells Roy that Etruria declared war on Bern using Lycia's call for aid as justification, and Ostia will benefit from Etruria's protection going forward.
