Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light

The Knight Crest (Japanese: 騎士の勲章 Knight's Medal), known as the Paladin's Honor in Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light, is one of several promotion items in the Fire Emblem series.

In Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light, it was used to promote cavaliers to paladins. From Mystery of the Emblem onwards, its use was extended to promote knights to generals and, in The Sacred Stones, to promote both cavaliers and knights to Great Knights. In the remakes of the Archanea games, Shadow Dragon and New Mystery of the Emblem, it was replaced by the Master Seal. The knight crest is available in five games: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light, Mystery of the Emblem, The Binding Blade, The Blazing Blade, and The Sacred Stones.
