Eliwood fights his way through the Dread Isle; along the way, he comes across the first sympathetic figure of the group, [[Uhai]], an operative from Sacae who elects to fight with honour. Just before raiding the Dragon's Gate, however, Ninian is also kidnapped from him by the mysterious [[Ephidel]], who orchestrated many of the events that led to the current state of affairs in Lycia. After raiding the Dragon's Gate and killing a delusional Darin, Eliwood and his friends eventually locate his father, alive but shaken. The reunion, however, is cut short; after seeing the face of his father's captor, Nergal, for the first time, Ninian is found in a confused trance, and despite their best attempts to snap her out of her daze, she ends up opening the Dragon's Gate. [[Nils]] eventually arrives and breaks her trance. This causes the gate to collapse on itself, killing Ephidel. However, Nergal still is able to kill Elbert by harvesting his [[quintessence]]; even with this, however, Elbert delivers one final act of rebellion against Nergal by almost fatally stabbing him. While the wound does not kill him, it ends up delaying Nergal from immediately opening up the Dragon's Gate again; Elbert himself dies in Eliwood's arms, telling him to continue to oppose Nergal.

Shaken by his death and by the revelation that Nergal intends to bring Dragons back into the world, Eliwood and his comrades decide to seek aid from Hector's older brother, [[Uther]], the Marquess of Ostia. While Uther is unable to provide direct aid to the group, he points them to the [[Nabata]] desert to seek "the living legend". After saving the Mage General of [[Etruria]], [[Pent]] from bandits in the desert, Eliwood meets [[Athos]] for the first time; after seeking his advice and learning more of Nergal's twisted past, Eliwood is sent home by Athos in order to continue fighting against the Black Fang. After spending a day to rest in Pherae, Eliwood travels to Bern in disguise in order to attack the headquarters of the Black Fang. In addition to slaying many of the members of the Black Fang, Eliwood ends up having to solve a problem in Bern's ruling class; Pent and his wife [[Louise]] gain an audience with Queen [[Hellene]] of Bern for some information about the [[Shrine of Seals]], where [[Bramimond]] lives. The queen informs them that the [[Fire Emblem (item)#Elibe|Fire Emblem]] has been stolen by the Black Fang, and that Eliwood could earn her favor by recovering it. After retrieving the Emblem and stopping an assassination attempt on Prince [[Zephiel]], Eliwood is granted passage to the Shrine and convinces Bramimond to break the seals binding the Divine Weapons such as [[Durandal]]. Shortly afterwards Ninian is again kidnapped by Nergal; Athos then brings Eliwood to the cavern in Ostia where Durandal is kept. Upon leaving the cavern with the weapon, Eliwood and his cadre come across an actual Ice Dragon. Against his will, the sword ends up attacking the Ice Dragon. While the group initially praises the action, Nergal appears to inform Eliwood that the dragon he just slew was none other than Ninian, the very girl who he had saved in the past and had spent much time protecting.

Despite this tragedy, Eliwood continues forth, shaken even further by this death, but with a new resolve to stop Nergal. After repelling one last desperate attack from Nergal in Ostia, Eliwood returns to the Dread Isle, and faces off against Nergal for the last time. After defeating [[morph]]s of the late Marquess Darin and former Black Fang members, Eliwood fights against Nergal and after getting accused of being callous for moving on from Ninian's death so quickly, kills the druid. In his dying breaths, however, Nergal opens up the Dragon's Gate, hoping that the dragons will not only kill Eliwood, but destroy all of the world as revenge for not letting his dreams come true (these dreams are later revealed in Hector's tale). Initially facing impossible odds, [[Bramimond]] appears in the battle and with his powers, revives Ninian; using her powers as a communicator for the Dragon's Gate, she is able to slay two of the dragons, but she cannot handle the third one. As such, Eliwood and his army join together for one last battle to defeat the last dragon.
