To start, a few notes.
As you might have noticed this story strays from what would have probably happened after the end of fire emblem (Eliwood's Tale). I have changed a few things. Lyn returned to Caelin but Kent was still left as the steward and ruler. Wallace returned as well after going to Ilia. Raven and Lucius met up again. Raven then returned to Caelin trying to revive the former glory of the noble house he came from. Well those are the only changes so far. Back to the story
Wrath of Fate
Chapter the Sixth
Glory Returning
Eastern Keep Bedroom
Ramza got up. His armor was stacked up beside him and his swords were displayed neatly on a weapon rack. There was no one else in the room. He wondered where they had gone off to.
Yuguo Woods-Edge of Forest
The Ositian camp had finally been set up and the last of the enemies in the vicinity had been eliminated. The generals were taking account of the losses from the ambush.
Hector paced about in his tent waiting for his advisors and the other generals to come. Matthew sat in the background eating an apple. Serra sat beside him trying her best to keep quiet.
Soon enough the generals and vassals of Ositia arrived. They all bore grim expressions on their already grim, stiff faces. They all sat down at the collapsible table set up in the young lord's room.
"Lay it on me. How many did we lose?" Hector said gruffly, his breath reeking of wine and beer.
The generals proceeded to make their reports. Hector's expression went from bad to worse.
"This sets our plans back a lot. We'll have to go with raiding villages for now. Send some scouts out to scan the area. We will decide our next move after that."
Caelin Encampment
Raven, Lucius, Karel and Kent were all gathered in the tent of the steward. They were chatting about what had happened before.
"Well, it somehow slipped my mind but why are you here?" Kent asked.
"Like I said before, if there's anyone to cut, I'll help you."
"So you have a desire to aid us in the battle?"
"So long as it is a battle of swords and not words."
"I see. Your help is appreciated." Kent said.
They continued their reminiscing and soon began drinking.
Igros Castle-outside gate
One thousand Pheraens stood outside the gates of castle Igros. It was not a war castle but it still gave its enemies an advantage. Only a few archers were positioned on its ramparts and there were no signs of any other defenses.
"Give me the unit list, Marcus." Eliwood said, a smug grin plastered to his face.
"One thousand strong. Five divisions. Armor unit, one hundred soldiers. They're taking the front led by Harken. Infantry unit, five hundred of them. They're in the middle led by you, m'lord. Archer unit, three hundred. They're in the rear led by Rebecca. Catapults are set up behind them. Cavalry unit one hundred. They're on the sides led by myself."
"Good. And the rest are guarding our base camp right?"
"Yes. Some are on scout duty."
"I see. This should prove easy enough. The enemy is weak and our camp is defended. Execute the plan immediately."
"Yes lord Eliwood." Marcus said. "Begin the assault. Catapults, fire!"
And the attack began. The catapults sent volley after volley into the castle's walls. The archer on the ramparts released few shots and had to struggle just to keep balanced. Some of them were shot down by Pherae's archers.
Eastern Keep-courtyard
Ramza held the flower gently in his hand. His back to the keep he had called home for a long time. A red haired woman stood behind him dressed in the traditional garb of the dancers of Ivalice. A boy was beside her.
"I will go alone. You stay here and take care of the boy. His parents might not be dead yet. I won't take him from them in my silly attempt to bring back the glory of the Beoulve. Dycedarg ruined that name and now Zalbag is dead. If it is fated for the line of Beoulve to fall I will not stand in fate's way again."
"Fine. Have it your way." The dancer said. "I'll miss you." She added as an after thought as Ramza walked away.
Rune Hall
"Rise then my brothers and sisters of the Arcane Circle! We go to war!" The archmage shouted to the gathered spellcasters.
A red mage sighed. "This is going to be tough…" he said while the majority of the mages shouted their approval.
Notes again
That's all… I've been wondering if I should transfer this fic to the game crossovers section. Input on whether or not I should would be appreciated.
