I am going to write this as a interesting perspective on Marcus from the US GBA game of Fire Emblem he being my favorite character after all.
Lets see I seem to like the odd characters but that really isn't surprising sense I am odd. Oh I would like you all to meet my new muse Kais!
*a tall green haired blue skinned man walks in with dazzling blue eyes dressed in a green t-shirt and black pants*
Kais:Hi.
M.F: Would you do the disclaimer?
Kais: Sure Major Ford does not own Fire Emblem or anything related. She does though own any made up characters in the story and me.
MF: Good job!
Kais: Thanks!
The Dark Riders Chapter 1 A Hold on the Past
To anyone watching this village this fair spring day it would look like a huge bonfire was burning on each side of it when in all reality it was the village itself burning.
Those in the village were being attacked by black clad soldiers either on horse back, on foot, or even on Pegesi or Wyveri in the air. The village was in a uproar and the only ones that could stop this attack were already dead, the knights sent by the Marquess of the village. Soon about half a hour later the attack was finished the villagers in make shift holding pens and the soldiers in black(interesting pun lol) were out in a nearby field lined up by class.
Knights and Generals in the front with cavaliers and paladins in the next row. Mercenaries, hero's, myrmidons, sword masters, fighters and qarriors along with beserkers and pirates in the next row with everything else making rows behind that. All in all any matter of troop class was present here even clerics and troubadours along with bishops surprisingly enough. They answered to one and one only a black clad paladin with a black horse. His name Tyther leader of what he called the Dark Strikers. This man was black haired and dark brown eyed with a beard to match. His face was tanned and scarred from battles only he knew of. He was not a man to trifle with having a quick anger and his skill with all of his weapons even a bow unusual for a paladin but he was not a ordinaray one as it was seen. Those that betrayed or angered him were found dead by some means courtesy of Tyther. All this registered in the minds of the ranks of soldiers as the man in question rode in front of them.
"You did well all of you. If we continue this we can accomplish our goal only though if you fight like this all the time. Down to Lycia and all governments let chaos reign!" Tyther roared and with that final statement the soldiers roared out in unison, "Down to Lycia and all governments let chaos reign!"
Tyther nodded as his soldiers finished their chant and started to march back to there base leaving all the other people in the pens all shops of any kind ransacked for supplies for the force. Good now we just need this all the time. Soon I shall have my revenge on those that betrayed and used me! Chaos reign and all governments fall! He thought as he rode off with his soldiers.
Meanwhile the Lord Eliwood was passing nervously. It had been five weeks sense his annoucment of his engagement to the Lady Lyndis of Calein or the Lady Lyn of the Lorca tribe which ever title you bestowed upon her. This was all done and thought over in the Castle of Pherae in the throne room to be precise causing the paladin in the room to take notice and let out a small chuckle.
"What do you find so funny Marcus?" Eliwood asked as he turned to the paladin with a glare.
"You Lord Eliwood. I've known you sense you were a baby and you are typically so calm like your father was." Marcus replied but saying the ending more softly.
"You are right of course my friend. It's been what two possibly three years sense I met Lady Lyndis and I have been engaged to her for five weeks it's just making me a little nervous my friend." Eliwood said with a sigh.
"Aye but you know as well as I that your mother is over joyed and is now out buying things for the wedding." Marcus replied with a laugh as his young lord groaned at that.
His mother, the Lady Elenor(correct me if I am wrong can't remember) had been just as Marcus had said over joyed at his engagement to Lyn. So for the past five weeks she had been happily planning the wedding and even making the guest list much to the groaning and moaning of her son. Now it would have been bad for that but then Marquess Calien had to get into the act as well planning out other things his own mother couldn't causing a certain amount of mayhem for the young couple.
"Marcus has there been anything going on that requires your attention?" Eliwood said trying his best to get the older man out of the castle for a change. Ever sense Lord Elbert, Eliwood's father had been killed Marcus had rarely left his young lords side unless it was for a emergency of some kind.
"No there isn't actually." The purple haired paladin replied sitting down in a nearby chair with a groan.
"Hmm alright then go out and find my mother." Eliwood said determined to get the older paladin out no matter what the assignment may be.
"Yes Lord Eliwood." The paladin said getting up and walking out to find to Lady of Pherae.
There that gets him out and now to find something to do. The young lord thought with a sigh while he sat down heavily in the thrown. He sat there deep in thought rubbing his nose.
Now just as Eliwood said Marquess Calien( who's name I can't remember please tell me if you do know!) was busying making plans for his granddaughters wedding much to the despair of Lyn.
"Please grandfather you don't have to do this." Lyn pleaded for like the thousandth time to the elderly marquess.
"None sense I couldn't help your mother but I am going to help you." He replied with his typical answer for that question.
With a groan of disappointment Lyn stopped and looked around the dining hall that they were in. It was very large and guarder by soldiers every where. While she gazed about the large hall Kent and Sain came bursting in all of a sudden startling all there.
"Marquess, Lady Lyndis someone is attacking nearby villages. They just burnt one to the ground but that isn't the only one there have been six others all in the last week." Kent reported quickly before the others could ask what was going on.
"That isn't the only thing. They ransack the shops, armories and things of that nature and then place the villagers in pens. They then proceed to burn the village to the ground. Every survivor says it was people dressed in black." Sain continued for his friend.
"Any idea on where they will strike next?" The Marquess asked looking at the two paladins but already knowing the answer.
"Calien is the next closest place to where they would strike sir." Kent replied worsening everyones fears.
"Alright lets get the castle and villages ready to evacuate just in case." The Marquess quickly ordered in a tone that wouldn't take back talk.
"Yes sir!" The two paladins responded and took off to tell all others including the villagers what to do.
The two lords of Calien looked at each other with dread and got up to issue there own orders to the castle and village.
I know I know short but hey if you review that will be great! Oh and please tell me if Ulther, Hectors brother dies in the game I haven't beaten it yet. Heh but read and review!
