Hey everyone! This is my first Fire Emblem story. Hope you guys enjoy it! Also be aware that these chapters will contain lots of spoilers for those that never played or finish the game. That includes Tales games as well. Oh and one more thing to say, not every tales character will be in this story cause I only played the ones here that were released in the US and two that were imported. So Please be aware of that as well!
Also I shorted this time so it won't be too long to read. Sorry about that _
Anyways enjoy!
Chapter 1 – Travelers from the World of Regenerations: Part 1
After the fall of the Fell Dragon Grima, the shepherds can finally live in peace without worrying except for Robin, though he felt the threat is gone. He can't help but feel something in the air is different. "Even though everything is in peace…but why can't I shake this feeling that something weird is about to happen" Robin thought.
Just then, his wife Lissa comes along and surprises Robin by hugging him from behind. "Hey hubby….what'cha doing standing in the balcony all by yourself, did you forget we were supposed to go on a date today?" asked Lissa. "Ah Lissa, my bad, Just had to clear my head for a little bit. But anyways don't worry, I didn't forget. I did promise to go on a lunch date with you" said Robin.
Lissa felt discourage but felt relieved that Robin remembered "That's what I thought mister. Anyway let's go before my brother shows-"Lissa was interrupted by bumping into Chrom near the doorway and noticing that Chrom has an annoyed look on his face. "And where exactly are you going young lady" asked Chrom.
"Hey, I was just getting ready to go on lunch date with Robin of course" answered Lissa. Chrom shook his head with "Not today you are, did you forget that you were supposed to look after your niece Lissa?" asked Chrom. Lissa felt confused of what Chrom, said til she finally remembered her duty. "Oh crud, I forgot" shouted Lissa. Chrom sighs and looks at Lissa "Well now that you remembered, I suggest you make that plan another day" said Chrom.
As Chrom walked away through the hallway, Lissa felt slightly angry and pouted. "Oh boy, just when I really want to spend more time with you Robin" Griped Lissa. Robin walked in front of Lissa and petted her on the head. "Hey no worries, I'll stay with you while we babysit Lucina together. Would that help?" asked Robin. Lissa smiled and hugged Robin. "Aww Robin, you really are the best" replied Lissa. As Robin and Lissa walked down the hallway, Lissa smirked and asked Robin about something.
"Hey Robin, put out your arms out for a second" Robin felt confused and put his arms out instructed by Lissa.
"Like this?"
"Yep, Here I go!"
Lissa jumps into the air and lands into Robin's arms. "Whoa there, that was dangerous that you just pulled. What would if happen if I didn't catch you?!" shouted Robin. "Oh come on, there will be no way you will fail to catch me silly. Besides, you never once carried me after the final battle that day" replied Lissa. Robin sighs of defeat and smiles at Lissa "….Fair enough, well princess, let's get going" said Robin.
As Robin continues to carry Lissa to Lucina's room, he gently puts her down as Lissa walks towards Lucina's crib. "Hey there cutie, your favorite aunt and uncle are here" said Lissa. Baby Lucina smiled and giggled seeing her Aunt and Uncle in the room. Lissa gently picks up baby Lucina while cradling in her arms. Lissa sees Robin on the couch nearby and sits next to him while holding Lucina.
"Ho boy, to think you grown this much over a year missy" stated Lissa. "No kidding, sooner or later she might unexpectedly start walking at any moment" Joked Robin. As little Lucina drifts off to sleep, Lissa lays her head on Robin's shoulder and felt of sense of relieve around him.
"…you know…I'm really glad you're here with me Robin" said Lissa
"Hmmm, why is that?" asked Robin.
"Sorry for repeating this but if you were truly gone after that fight….I don't know what would I do with my life" replied Lissa. Robin notices bit loneliness within her tone and puts his arm around Lissa while laying his head on Lissa. "Sorry I scared you that day, no matter what happens, I will always stay by your side" said Robin. After hearing what Robin said, Lissa smiled and blushed as she walks to the cribs and placing little Lucina in the crib while walking back towards Robin.
"Hey Robin, .I want you to be straight with me and be honest, did you only ask me to marry you because I'm a Princess?" Lissa felt nervous for asking Robin this question. But Robin smiled and stands up going up to Lissa and petting her on the head. "Don't be a dork, wither you are a princess or not. I still love you for who you are. To me, Princess is just a title you're the fun and lovable girl I fell in love with" he answered.
Suddenly Lissa became thrilled while making a cat like grin and pushes Robin on the couch while sitting on his lap. Lissa slightly blushes and slowly unbuttons her clothes without hesitation, causing Robin to fluster. "Whoa there, are you sure about this?" cried Robin. "Rather than staying a girl, I want you to see me as a woman silly" said Lissa.
"But we can't be doing this Lissa!" he shouted
"What not man enough to do it with me?" She criticized. Robin took it slightly offensive but replied "For the record that's not it. Besides we can't do it while she's looking at us" said Robin. Lissa looked confused as she turns around and sees little Lucina staring at them. "Oh I forgot she was here…oopies" said Lissa. "Hurry and button your dress before anyone shows-"Before Robin could finish, Sumia opens the door and walks in.
"Hey you two, hope you guys watch…Lucina…. Properly….." As Sumia looks into the room, she notice Lissa's dress is unbutton and right on top of Robin while seeing little Lucina watching them. A slight anger like vain appeared on Sumia head "Lissa….Robin….care to explain what you two were doing" Sumia notice Lucina has a curious like expression on her face and turns her head with a dark look with a false smile staring down on Lissa and Robin. Robin franticly takes his coat off and throws it on Lissa. "M-my apologize Sumia, W-we just got a little overboard before we notice Lucina was watching us".
Sumia was giving an intimidating air around her as she walks over to Robin "Oh my, so you must be the culprit. A naughty boy like you should be severely….punished" Sumia suddenly drags Robin by his shirt and out of the room, leaving Lissa speechless of what Robin did. "Am I dreaming, Robin took the blame and protected me….*blush*…. He really didn't have to do that" Thought Lissa. As Sumia continues dragging Robin through the hallway, she stops and releases him leaving Robin dumbfounded. "Hmm, something wrong Sumia?" asked Robin. "*giggle* you didn't need to take the fall Robin, I was aware what Lissa was trying to do. But I actually don't blame her for doing" said Sumia. "Huh, what did you mean?" asked Robin. "Well after you faded away doing the final battle, Lissa wouldn't stop searching for you, Day and Night, non-stop" noted Sumia.
After what Sumia said, Robin began to feel bad for disappearing on Lissa. Sumia walks up to him, kneels down and puts her finger on Robin's nose. "You should know better not to make a girl like her worry like that, you better take responsibility for what you did okay" Sumia smiled and winked at him while she walks off down the hallway.
"Hmph…Sumia does have a point; I did unexpectedly disappear on Lissa. Maybe there's something I can make up for her for what I did" thought Robin. As Robin got up from the floor, he looks through the window and notices a group of villagers entering through the castle gate. All banged up and injured. "That's weird, why are those villagers so beat-"just then, a sudden headache came by hurting Robin in the process. "W-What's going on….why's my head…gah….feel like its going to split open…" Suddenly a vision appeared and sees a group of red armored enemies shouting: "Catch those inferior beings, they must not escape!"
The vision faded and Robin's headache disappeared. "Man, least my headache is gone. But what was that vison….inferior beings….what does that mean…." After Robin recovers, Lissa rans down the hallway towards Robin. "Jeez, manage to find you. Here Robin, your coat" Robin smiles at Lissa while gently taking his coat back and putting it on. "Come on, looks like there's a commotion need the gate" Before Robin could walk, Lissa suddenly slightly grabs Robins coat. "Hey …after Sumia took you out of the room, I had this strange headache that came out of nowhere and a weird vison came up…" Lissa mentioned.
"Vision….no way…did she"
Robin turns around and places his hands on Lissa shoulders. "What else did you see?" Asked Robin "Well…I can't remember the rest but the last thing I saw was a group of red armored guys screaming inferior beings" Lissa answered. Robin was surprised of what Lissa said about the vison he saw. "Wait, did you see a vision too Robin?" asked Lissa. Robin nodded and responded "Yes I have, looks like both of us seen the same vision" said Robin.
"Robin, do you know what it mean-"Before Lissa could can anything, they hear Chrom calling out to them in the hallway. "Hey let's get going, we can talk about this later" said Robin. Lissa agreed and both ran down the hallway towards Chrom. "I'm glad to find you two. A group of villagers appeared at the gate needed help so let's get going" said Chrom. Both Robin and Lissa nodded and followed him to the entrance. As the trio got outside, they see Frederick talking to one of the villagers and went up to him. "Did you found out about why these villagers looked for frighten and beat up Frederick" asked Chrom.
"Yes my lord, the way they explain to me seems abnormal" replied Frederick. "Abnormal, what do you mean Frederick?" asked Lissa. "Apparently they said a mysterious portal like gate appeared in there village. And strange group of red armored soldiers came from it and literally destroyed their homes" said Frederick.
"Hey Robin, does that mean the vision we saw earlier came true" asked Lissa. Chrom over heard what Lissa said and became curious and went up to her. "Vision, what vision your talking about Lissa?" asked Chrom. "Earlier today, Lissa and I had a weird vision involving of what Frederick said. Near the end of that vison, one of the red armored soldiers shouted "Inferior Beings"" said Robin.
Frederick became concern of what Robin said and joined in the conversation" When did this vision started you two?" asked Frederick. "It happen a few minutes ago right before Chrom called us out" replied Robin. Chrom became intrigue of this information and continue to ask. "Hmmm, interesting, were there anything else you saw in that vision?" asked Chrom. "Unfortunately, that's all I can remember" said Robin. "Sorry Chrom, same here" said Lissa. Chrom felt dissatisfy but knew this conversation had to be hold. "…well for now, let's help these villagers and ask them what exactly happen to them" said Chrom.
Everyone agreed and ran towards the villagers to help them. The Shepard's manage to get all the villagers healed up til the elder walked up to Chrom. "Thank you so much for helping my people milord" said the elder. Chrom smiled at the older and said "No problem…exactly, how did this happen to you and your people?" asked Chrom. When Chrom asked this question to the elder, the elder became slightly bewilder. "It was the strangest thing, everything was normal in village til a strange gate appeared in the middle of the plaza" said the elder.
"All of us walked up to the gate til suddenly, a group of red armored like soldiers appeared and attacked us. All of them shouted inferior beings to all of us and started wiping almost every villager in town. Only half of us manage to escape. But the rest were captured and taken to some to weird steel like armor fortress that suddenly appeared near the village" said the Elder. When Chrom and the others heard what the elder said, they became shocked of what he said. "That's so cruel" said Lissa. "In what location did this fortress appeared?" said Frederick.
"Our home is near the Northroad and the fortress is about 7 miles from there" said the Elder. It was clear that Chrom knew he have to stop them and rescue the other villagers from the mysterious enemies. "Alrighty then, let's call the rest of the shepherds and-"Right before Chrom could say something, Frederick had to interrupt. "My apologize milord, but I'm afraid that almost every member in the group went on separate missions with the exception of us and Sumia can go and help" said Frederick.
Chrom was lost in thought til suddenly he remembered. "Ah that's right, I had them go search and capture any Grima worshippers. Well no problem. Nothing's wrong just us four going so let's get a move" said Chrom. Just then, Frederick interrupts his lord's plan. "But you have to remember milord; the place that the elder said to us is an armor fortress. I think it'll be wise to go at night while we come up with a plan by then" warned Frederick. "Good call. Robin!" shouted Chrom. "Yes Chrom" replied Robin. Any suggestion to infiltrate at night?" asked Robin.
Robin began to formulate a plan to infiltrate but needed more information to continue. "Hmmmm, I suggest we ask some of the villagers where they saw the fortress and what it looks like before we can infiltrate" said Robin. "Yeah, they might have an idea what it looks like" said Lissa. "Alright, let's start and see if the villagers speak about it" said Chrom.
As everyone split up to ask the villagers of what the fortress looks like, a young boy, injured badly while limping at the gate. Lissa took notice and shouted to Chrom "Hey Chrom look!" shouted Lisa. Chrom turns around and sees the injured boy. He runs towards and catches him right before the boy collapses on the ground. "This boy is injured badly, Lissa, use your healing art to help him" said Chrom. "You got it" Lissa brings out her rod and starts using it to heal the boy.
As Lissa looks at the boy, she couldn't help bad for the child. "This is horrible, who would do this to a child" said Robin. "This is just cruel" said Lissa. Chrom took notice that the boy has unusally like dark bruises on his arms and legs. "It's like this boy has been tortured through something" implied Chrom. Just then, the elder show up and sees the boy that Chrom is holding. "Oh my…little Nico" cried the elder. "You know him chief elder?" Asked Frederick.
"Yes I do, he was one of my people that was captured by those soldiers" said the elder. Robin takes a quick look and sees a strange colored sphere on the boy's hand. "Hey, does anyone notice that there's a colored like sphere on the child's hand?" announced Robin. Everyone turned their heads and saw what Robin was talking about.
"That is strange….hey Nico, can you hear me?" asked Chrom. Nico slowly wakes up and responded to Chrom. "Those…monsters….I don't know what….it is but they put this on…everyone that was….taken from the village" answered Nico. Lissa got curious of the sphere and wanted to see if she could take it out. "Hmmm, let me see if I can take it out" said Lissa. When Lissa placed her hand on Nico's hand to slowly removing the sphere, a sudden voice echoed in the air.
"Stop, Don't remove the exsphere!"
Everyone looked around to see where that voice came from. "What in blazes did that came from" surprised Chrom. "I don't know milord, but it sounded like it came from outside of the gate" replied Frederick. "Yeah, and what did it mean to not remove it" said Lissa. Lissa continued to slightly move the sphere, which caused Nico to go hysterical and ran off outside the gate." What in world, everyone lets follow him. Something not right about this" Chrom ordered.
Everyone followed Nico outside the gate and went into the forest. They stopped at a nearby clearing and see Nico screaming and agonizing on the ground. "Lissa. What exactly did you do?" Chrom demanded. "Nothing, all I did was trying to get the sphere out" Lissa explained. Robin slowly walks towards Nico, he turns his head and showed a dark gazes towards everyone and shouted a monstrous tone. "Don't come near me!" shouted Nico. The unusually sphere fell out of Nico's hand, causing Nico to scream in agony and transforming him into a monster.
