Fire Emblem Awakening 2:

The Return of Grima

Chapter Two

The girl started to dash towards me and swung her sword with all her might, I drew my blade in hopes of blocking it... I blocked the attack and swung back at her, not meaning to harm her I scratched a bit of her shoulder with my sword. Doubled over I held out my hand to help her get on her feet. Time seemed to slow down as I looked at her, she seemed oddly familiar.

"Thanks, sorry for assuming you where the enemy, it's just you look so much like one of the phantoms, except with allot more blood on your cloak, but no phantom would even consider helping the enemy." "Uh, thanks?" I had no idea what she was saying, but since she could strike me down right here right now, I decided to roll with it. "My name's Reyna, me and my brother Robin are the tacticians for the Sheppards." "So what brings you to Ylisse?" I knew I couldn't answer this question honestly without anyone thinking I was a complete fool, but I felt as though I could trust her.

"Well to be honest I don't know, I woke up in a field like this, and I saw a light, which I see now was this gate to Ylisse, I know you think I'm making this up, but it's true!" She had a blank expression on her face, but if I where her I wouldn't believe this story either. "Hey don't worry I believe you, 3 years ago I was in your exact same passion, I'm just glad someone with a kind heart took me in, and I will do the same for you."

Reyna took me on a horse through Ylisse, the bright lights of the markets at night seemed to gently sparkle, and everything seemed so peaceful here. "You live here, everything seems so nice, I don't understand why such a high ranking soldier would be stationed at the borders?" "Well you would think, but we are at war with The Phantoms, a strange cult of people with strange powers, in other words they are the next Grimleal." Reyna replied. "Grimleal?" I asked "They are a cult that worship the fell dragon, Grima, they sacrificed themselves for him, he nearly destroyed the world, and he used my brother as the human vessel to survive, but the Sheppards stopped him, but that was over 3 years ago now." "We fear The Phantoms are trying to do the same, but will control him with their powers."

It was allot to take in, but I got the rough idea, if The Phantoms are as bad as Reyna describes them, and I look like one, I'm in for one heck of I ride. "Hey I've been meaning to ask, what's your name?" she asked...
