(Premonition and Prologue)
BGM: WHITE KNIGHT CHRONICLES- Balandor Castle Town
The sun was beginning to set in Ylisse and at the capitol of Ylisstol, the Shepherds had just finished spending the day amongst friends, family, and even more family. For in the Shepherds you see family doesn't just mean the spouse and kids, no for this odd-ball militia family means the spouse, the kids, the future kids, future son/daughter-in-laws, and the future grandkids. All this is thanks to some time traveling shenanigans, deep-realms, and fate of worlds stuff from years ago, but that's all in the past. Currently the various families of Shepherds are beginning to disperse into the depths of the castle after a large dinner in the dining hall. One certain family of white and pink haired Shepherds had headed up to their room for the night. The 'Tactician family' as they were, consisted of Robin (Daddy/Grandpa), Olivia (Mommy/Grandma), Inigo Jr. (Junior), Marc Jr. (Marcy, pronounced Marc-E), and Morgan Jr. (Little M./Sweet Pea, Robin's nickname for her). Following them were future Inigo, future Marc, future Morgan, future daughters-in-law Lucina and Cynthia along with future son-in-law Owain and future/deep-realm grandkids Soleil and Ophelia.
BGM: FIRE EMBLEM AWAKENING- Agh! Won goph in mah mouph! Blech! Ptooey!
"Okay... I get that yesterday I said I was going tell you all the story, but I don't think I meant ALL OF YOU." Robin turned and asked the small army that followed him into the room.
"Oh come on daddy!" both Morgans said in unison.
"Please grandpa, won't you tell us your story? You didn't tell the whole thing the first time." Soleil added with a wishful look on her face.
"Yes! Please grandfather? No one has ever revealed to us the complete tale of your great quests and exploits before we were born." Ophelia pleaded.
Robin looked around at all of the begging faces and puppy-dog eyes, even his wife Olivia gave a soft imploring smile.
"...Fine you win you can all join in on story time..." the tactician admitted in defeat..
"Yeah, checkmate dad!" the tactician's future children said as the slapped a triple high five.
"Everybody get comfortable cause this is a long one. I can guarantee we're not going to finish it tonight." Robin explained as he sat down in a chair next to the fireplace.
"That's alright dear, you can finish it some other time. I'm sure the kids won't mind." Olivia assured him.
"Alright then, let's start beginning." The tactician said as he leaned forward." At the very, VERY beginning."
BGM: DARK CLOUD- Broken Promise
A long, long time ago there were once many wise and powerful dragons who ruled the lands all across the world before the time of humans. But upon the birth of man, the dragons power had began to fade. Some chose to blame the humans and sought their destruction while others accepted their fate and choose to let the people rule the land. This caused the dragons to fight amongst themselves in a great and terrible war, taking the lives of both human and dragon kind. Those who had chosen to destroy the humans had ultimately lost the war and were warned to seal their power or else it would drive them into feral madness. When the dragons refused that warning, time would have this prediction come true. They slowly lost control of their powers and minds throughout the years, forcing them to be sealed away forever as they threatened all, including them selves...
Ages passed and two dragons remained, Naga a dragon who had watched over and protected the humans during the war. The other was a dragon named Grima, a survivor from the faction of the war that sought the destruction of man. He had not lost control of his powers or mind and was not sealed away as the others were. Instead the two dragons had agreed to observe the world and protect it together...
However, 1000 years ago Grima had decided to descend upon the world in order to rule over it, but Naga would not allow him to do so. She had decided to entrust the first ruler of the land with her power in order to stop Grima, this ruler became The First Exalt. Together they cast Grima down into a deep slumber, never to awaken. Grima having seen his own downfall beforehand bestowed his most trusted human follower with his power and they became The First Fell-Blood. They founded their own land west of the Exalt's, and made a vow to resurrect their fallen master and see his return to the world at any cost...
But that is not our story...
Let me tell you this story...
A magical, magnificent tale, of a wondrous young hero, whose name is...
Robin.
BGM: DARK CLOUD- The Ceremony (Go look up the actual cut-scene for this and you'll get the general gist of the what this looks like)
Some time ago in a unknown location of a dark castle.
A ceremony was taking place underground surrounding a dark shrine. A pale skinned, white haired woman lay at the center of an altar, wrapped in a black gown with many dancers in ceremonial garb surrounding her. Dark black/purple feathers decorated the cursed dancers heads along with pale skull like masks and curved sharp horns. On their bodies they wore blood red cloths over their necks and torsos. while black and gray tattoos with strange markings ran all across their skin. They had black kilt like skirts around their waists with red shin covers on their legs with clawed and bloodied gloves on their hands. They performed a most un-holy dance around the woman, slowly swaying and moving around their heads and bodies in a perfect unnatural unison. The dancers went around and around beginning to spin and move faster and faster raising their arms up high into the air. They spread their arms in and out, up and around dancing at in ever increasing tempo while the woman on the alter began to call out in pain, holding her gut as the ceremony continued. The dancers kept going, faster and faster until their bodies began to quiver and quake. They raised up their arms up and tilted their heads to the sky, hands trembling and shaking above them before the woman let out a final scream of pain and all of the dancers fell, unmoving...
As the woman's scream had stopped, a pair of soft cries could now be heard and a shadowy man emerged from the dark over to the woman's side calling to her as he ran...
BGM: GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS TRY- Shame (loose translation of title from japanese)
"My dear are you alright?"
"Yes my husband." the woman said sitting up holding two moving cloths in her arms. "We've done it my dear, we now have our greatest desire and even more."
"A child?" The man asked.
"Children." The woman answered as she passed him one of the cloths. "Twins. And look."
The woman pulled down the cloth on the infant to show a purple mark on the infant's right hand.
"They both have it." The woman said with a gentle smile.
"Yes! Excellent! ...You've done well my beloved." The man said as he placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Which is the one to be?" The woman asked her husband with a concerned look.
"The one to be..." The man examined the children, he observed the two as they squirmed about crying in their wrappings and made his decision.
"This child... They shall be the one to change the world!" the man proclaimed as he raised the infant into the air. "But what shall we call him? What name is most befitting a child of such importance?"
The woman gazed into the child's eyes as it stopped crying and smiled back at her.
She spoke the baby's name softly. "...Robin..."

...
At an unknown altar in the 'past', two men stand ready to confront a dark mage who wishes to be the architect of the world's end. That man's name is Validar.
"Robin." a voice called out.
"Chrom." another responded.
"This is it, our final battle...are you ready?" Chrom asked
"Let's do it." Robin responded as he pulled his hood over his head.
The two heroes charged into battle with Chrom engaging the mage first while Robin prepaireded a up a thunder spell. The sorcerer evaded and blocked Chrom's swings while he charged his own wicked spell. Validar teleported up into the air above the two heroes ready to strike.
"Up there!" Chrom shouted.
Validar fired a large purple/pink beam at the two, but the heroes dodged out of the way with Robin firing his spell as he jumped back. His shot missed as the dark mage teleported out of the way.
"You fool!" the sorcerer proclaimed as he vanished, only to then re-appear and strike the blue swordsman through a pillar with a powerful electric blow.
As Chrom tried to regain his balance using his sword, Validar laughed while he charged another dark magic blast.
"Ha ha ha! Die!" he commanded, unleashing his attack toward Chrom.
Just be for the blast reached him, Robin intervened by sending a ball of lightning to cancel the attack in a white flash of light. The two magic users stood up from the explosion and stared at one another from across the floor.
BGM: G-GUNDAM- Unable to Hear the Chime of Souls
Validar called out, "Hmmm... Why do you resist? Destiny is your master, one way or the other!"
"To hell with destiny!" Chrom replied as he stood up beginning to walk back to Robin's side ready to fight. "Anything can change!"
Validar laughed again. "Gya ha ha! Fools! Struggle all you want! You cannot un-write what is already written!"
"That's for us to determine here in this moment." Robin countered.
"Oh? ...Then why don't we put an end to this deceive battle to determine which one of us is right!" The dark mage questioned.
"Come on!" The tactician answered.
The two tossed aside their weapons and lowered their arms next to them as they began charging with immense magical energy.
Robin: "Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!...HYAAA!"
Validar: "Hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgrh!...DYAAA!"
The ground began to break and crack around them as they continued to charge with power. The air began to shine with light and sparks as the two glowed brightly, filling with magical force and energy.
"READY!?" Robin shouted out.
"GYAAA!" Validar replied.
The magic users roared.
BGM: G-GUNDAM- Enormous Ambition
Validar: "DARKNESS..."
Robin: "BURNING..."
Both: "FINGER!"
They charged at one another, thrusting their right hands in front of them as they shot purple/red flames out and around their palms.
Validar: "HYAAAA!"
Their hands met as they shouted and began to grapple with each other.
Robin: "URAAAA!"
Robin pushed forward with all of his might forcing, Validar backward.
"What!? ...This can't be...! "the sorcerer cried out as his attack began to give way.
"HEEYAA!" The tactician roared pressing forward, breaking through the attack. Robin grabbed Validar's face with his burning hand.
"NO!" The dark mage yelled as his face began to sear and burn.
"AND NOW!..." Robin bellowed as he focused the magic in his hand, igniting the sorcerer's face in flame, "HEAT END!"
All of the energy in Robin's hand was released in a great explosion that the two in fire.
(Cut off BGM)
The smoke cleared as the tactician stepped back while Validar stood still, his body ablaze. The dark mage attempted to stay up, only to fall over on to the ground as purple fire engulfed him.
Before Chrom could turn to Robin and congratulate him, Validar's voice called out "This isn't over..." His body rose up with furious red eyes shouting "Damn you BOTH!" firing a shadowy ball of energy at Chrom.
The tactician's senses alerted him of the attack before the swordsman's could, so Robin shoved Chrom out of the blast and took the hit himself. There was a bright flash from the attack as it hit the tactician, but then it faded and he slumped onto to the ground.
Chrom ran over to the hooded tactician. "You alright?" he asked and helping Robin sit up.
They looked over at Validar's steaming remains "That's the end of him." Chrom assured. "Thanks to you we carried the day." The blue haired man claimed as he continued to help his friend up. "We can rest easy now, at long last..."
But something was not right with Robin, his eyes turned a shade of red under his hood, a strange pulsing force damped his scenes throughout his body.
He looked tward his ally with piercing eyes and Chrom noticed. "What's wrong? Hey, hang on-"
Before Chrom could finish, a blade of lightning had lanced through his chest causing him to stumble back from Robin. The hooded man looked glanced at his friend briefly, when he noticed his hand still sparking with electricity. They realized what had happened as their eye met.
BGM: WHITE KNIGHT CHRONICLES - Scar
"This is not your-...your fault..." The swordsman grunted, "Promise me you'll escape from this place. Please, go..." Chrom collapsed, dead.
"He he he he he! AH HAHAHA!" A wicked voice laughed from the air, just before the tactician's vision went black.
In the endless darkness, unknown voices cried out as Robin writhed in unbearable pain and cold emptiness... Before succumbing to the void one last voice spoke.
"I believe in you...Robin."
(Cut off BGM)
In an empty field of grass, during the 'present' day.
A man with pale white hair and a strange black-purple robe lay still on the ground. The warm sunlight shining on his face, something soft and fluffy beneath him. His eyes were shut tight in a deep sleep, while in the distance three figures drew closer and closer...
"Chrom, we have to do something..." A soft voice said.
"What do you propose we do?" Said another.
"I... I dunno..." The soft voice spoke again.
The pale haired man's eyes open completely, and the figures come into focus. The figures realize that the man had awoken.
BGM: FIRE EMBLEM AWAKENING- There are better places to take a nap than on the ground you know
"I see you're awake now." A blue haired man with a sword stated.
"Hey there!" The girl standing beside him chuckled.
" There're better places to take a nap than on the ground, you know. The man explained as he knelt down. "Give me your hand." The robed man took his hand and stood up.
BGM: FIRE EMBLEM AWAKENING- Id Serenity
"You all right?" The swordsman asked.
"Y-Yes... Thank you, Chrom." The pale haired man responded.
"Ah, then you know who I am?" Chrom wonderd.
" No, actually. I... It's strange... Your name, it just...came to me..." The robed man confusingly stated.
"...Hmm, how curious. Tell me, what's your name? What brings you here?" Chrom asked the man.
"My name is" He paused for a bit "... It's... Hmm?"
"...You don't remember your own name?" Chrom questioned.
"I'm not sure if... I'm sorry, but where am I, exactly?" The white haired man asked looking at his surroundings.
" Hey, I've heard of this! It's called amnesia!" The yellow dressed girl stated.
"It's called a load of pegasus dung." A larger brown-haired man in a suit of armor stated. "We're to believe you remember milord's name, but not your own?"
" B-But it's the truth!" the black cloak wearer pleaded in defense.
"What if it IS true, Frederick?" The swordsman asserted. "We can't just leave him/her here, alone and confused. What sort of Shepherds would we be then?"
"Just the same, milord." The knight responded. "I must emphasize caution. 'Twould not do to let a wolf into our flock."
"Right then—we'll take him back to town and sort this out there." Chrom stated.
The nameless man asked, "Wait just one moment. Do I have a say in this?"
"Peace, friend" Chrom assured, "I promise we'll hear all you have to say back in town. Now come."
The group begins walking along the road towards a village off in the distance.
" What will you do with me?" The robed man asked. "Am I to be your prisoner?"
"Hah!" Chrom laughed, "You'll be free to go once we establish that you're no enemy of Ylisse."
"Is that where we are? Ylisse?" The man wondered rubbing his chin with a confused look.
"You've never heard of the halidom? Ha! Someone pay this actor. He plays quite the fool! The furrowed brow is especially convincing…" The tall knight remarked.
"Frederick, please." Chrom stated, then turning his attention to his new traveling companion, "This land is known as the Halidom of Ylisse. Our ruler, Emmeryn, is called the exalt. I suppose proper introductions are in order..." The blue haired man paused, "My name is Chrom—but then, you already knew that. The delicate one here is my little sister, Lissa."
"I am not delicate!" Lissa protested as she angrily pumped her arms in the air, "Hmph! Ignore my brother, please. He can be a bit thick sometimes. But you're lucky the Shepherds found you. Brigands would've been a rude awakening!"
"Shepherds? You tend sheep? ...In full armor?" The robed man asked, rather perplexed.
"Heh, it's a dangerous job. Just ask Frederick the Wary here." Chrom jested toward the knight.
"A title I shall wear with pride." Frederick stated with a saluted arm and fist over his chest, "Gods forbid one of us keeps an appropriate level of caution. I have every wish to trust you, stranger, but my station mandates otherwise."
"I understand, sir. I would do no less myself." The white haired man answered, "...My name is Robin …I just remembered that. How odd. I suppose that's one mystery solved."
"Robin? Is that foreign? …Ah, well. We can discuss it later. We're almost to town. Once we—" Chrom was interrupted by his sister's sudden gasp.
" Chrom, look! The town!" Lissa pointed out in horror.
BGM: GUNDAM 00- Alarm (I think...that's what the title is but it's probably wrong)
Everyone turned to face what she was pointing at. The town was completely on fire, buildings lit like candles across the entire area.
"Damn it!" Chrom yelled as he clenched his hands in fists, "The town is ablaze! Those blasted brigands, no doubt... Frederick, Lissa! Quickly!"
"What about him?" Frederick the Wary asked Chrom.
"Unless he's on fire as well, it can wait!" The blue swordsman replied.
"Aptly put, milord." The knight nodded his head.
"Let's go already!" The eager girl motioned.
The three Shepherds ran ahead, leaving their newly found acquaintance standing there alone.
"But what about—" Robin thought to himself, "Hmm..."After a brief moment of indecision, he decided to give chase and ran off to follow the others.
BGM: G-GUNDAM- Beware of the Scheme
The town had been completely overrun by a bunch of ravaging brigands, who sacked the town and killed those in the way.
"Gwa ha ha! Get to it, lads!" The brigand leader called out, "Grab anything shiny, and put the rest to the torch! We gots an example to set for these Ylissean types! Ain't that right, lass?"
The savage looking man lurched toward a townswoman who cried out in terror, "S-Stay away from me! Please! Someone! HEEEEEELP!"
As if on cue, Chrom, Lissa, and Frederick enter the area ready to fight.
"Chrom, we have to stop them!" Lissa told her brother.
"Don't worry." Chrom assured, as he began to unsheathe his sword Falchion. "—After today, these bandits won't be bothering anyone ever again…"
Right as Chrom was about to make his move, a familiar hooded man ran out in front of the group. "Wait!" The man called as he proceeded to remove his cowl.
"Robin! You followed us! Why?" Chrom questioned.
" I…I'm not certain myself. But I'm armed, and I know my way around a fight, if you'll have me." Robin answered back.
"Of course." The blue swordsman smiled, glad to have another ally. "—strength in numbers. Just stay close!"
"Remember Mr. Robin, we face practiced thieves and murderers. They will grant us no quarter. It's kill or be killed." Frederick warned.
"I know that." Robin looked back at him with an un-natural steely determination in his eyes.
Chrom caught a glimpse his new comrade's gear before they proceeded, "Robin, I see you wear a sword. Is it— Wait, is that a tome? …You know magic?"
"I…believe so?... I suppose I should check." Robin wondered as he removed the tome from his cloak and stared at it as a void expression visited his face.
"You 'believe so'? " Chrom asked rather concerned, "Perhaps I'll just keep a few paces behind you for the time being…"
"No" Robin said as he broke his trance like gaze, "I can control it. I'm sure. Now, how did this work again? Ah, yes…"
"Hey you!" The magic user was cut short as one of the brigands had noticed the group from behind the fruit stands and charged them with his axe ready to strike.
"Look out everyone we've been spotted!" Chrom shouted noticing the man running at the group.
"Hyah!" The axe wielder shouted as he raised his axe for a vertical strike at robed man.
"Watch out!" Lissa called out.
"Mr. Robin move!" Frederick yelled.
"Hm?" the tactician questioned as a rush of knowledge and skills began to pulse into memory...
Robin felt a flash and at the last second, he dodged the blow with a simple side step while the axe swung harmlessly past him.
BGM: G-GUNDAM- His Name is Domon Kasshu
"What?" the assailant stammered.
"Smart guy huh, think you can show me up? Well, try these! Hyaaaa!" The barbarian raised his axe again and began slash at his target yet again. Robin dodged the attacks as they came with precise movement, leaning in and out, back and forward. The man began to become aggravated as none of his swings could hit, his attacks became wild and reckless as the hooded man continued to dodge.
With one more powerful swing the axmen slashed horizontally at Robin only to have his axe get lodged in the post of a stand. The axmen turned his head to look at Robin who was holding his hand out in front of the barbarian's face.
Robin: "Thunder."
A ball of electricity shot from Robin's hand blasting the brigand, sending him skidding a brief distance across the ground. As he stopped a weak groan left the man and he stat still.
"Y-you!" a voice came from across the field. A myrmidon ran forward, blade drawn, toward the tactician, "You'll pay!"
The tactician drew the sword from his side in his free hand and blocked the swordsmen's swing. He shoved the myrmidon's blade back with his own and quickly lunged forward to impale the swordsmen through the chest with a strong one handed thrust. Robin turned his blade sideways and pulled out just before the man fell over dead.
He gave a disgusted sigh and stared at the two bodies before him, then at all the other ones scattered around the area. Men, women, children, some of them visibly beaten before death, He tightened the grip on his sword with anger. Robin turned over his shoulder and called over to his comrades with a serious tone, "Let's hurry up and get rid of these guys."
"He's right." Chrom said as he ran over to the sword-mage's side, "Forward!"
Fredrick charged ahead on horseback as the two other fighters followed suit along with Lissa covering the rear as they began to fight through the market.
Awhile later after engaging a few more brigands.
BGM: FIRE EMBLEM AWAKENING- Conquest (not ablaze version)
"Is anyone hurt?" Chrom asked out loud, "...You still with us, Robin?"
"Hmm… It's strange." He answered, "Here on the battlefield, I can… Well, I can 'see' things."
"See things? Like what?" Chrom wondered.
"The enemy's strength, their weaponry, the flow of battle… I must have studied this somewhere." Robin responded
"So, you're saying you can size up the enemy at a glance?" the blue swordsmen asked.
"Yes, it would seem so." the tactician nodded. "And perhaps more, if I apply myself…"
As the group moved forward, Robin moved forward mumbling to himself.
"The way I see the battle however is from another perspective... as if a sixth sense lets me see the entire battle field all at once no matter where I am. I've never heard of such a thing, it's possible that it comes from my magic...what to call this phenomena...Search Eye perhaps, no, no..."
Chrom walked up to Robin who was still lost in thought (... all alone... sorry I couldn't resist) "Are you all right? Don't rush into danger."
"I'm fine, Chrom. Don't worry." He assured.
"You've lent us your strength, and that makes you a friend." Chrom stated as he pat him on the back, "Having an ally by my side gives me courage."
"Thank you, but…I think there's more to it than that." Robin responded
"What do you mean?" the blue swordsman questioned.
"I believe there's a tactical advantage to fighting side by side… It's fuzzy… Wait, yes: working in pairs improves strength, defense, speed… Yes, yes, I'm sure of it!"
Chrom gave a confident chuckle, "Alright then let's work together to end this!"
BGM: KNIGHTS IN THE NIGHTMARE- The Dark King
Fredrick continued lead the way attacking those in front while Chrom and Robin stayed close behind to team up on anyone who got past. The group fought through a few more barbarians, myrmidons, and mages, working together as an efficient team. They pressed through the rest of the town until they reached the church where the enemy (boss) leader stood.
"Here, sheepy sheepy! Come to the slaughter!" the man jested toward the group.
He pulled the weapon from his back, "I've got a nice sharp silver axe just DYING to go get some more fresh blood on it! Ha-Ha-Ha!"
Robin's eyes narrowed at mention the man's words. "Heartless monster" he said in a stern voice. "You're actually ENJOYING this?!" The tactician's voice began to rise as he looked down as his right hand, clenching it in anger once again.
"Yeah! And I'm gonna enjoy this EVEN MORE!" The barbarian leader Garrick sprinted toward Robin with his axe lifted as high as he could and was ready to swing downward at white haired stranger.
"Robin!" Chrom shouted as the tactician still had his head down looking toward the ground.
"Now DIE!" Garrick yelled as he brought the axe down for the kill.
In an instant Robin opened his eyes and looked up before catching the blade of the weapon with his bare hand. The axe stopped mid swing on the tactician's palm without doing any damage. The barbarian chief was in awe.
Robin spoke, "You may have that silver axe..." A yellow-green light began to emit from Robin's hand, "But I've got these gold fingers!" He compressed his grasp on the axe with his and shattered it sending Garrick stumbling backward.
Garrick: "Wh-What?"
BGM: G-GUNDAM-Overcoming a Burning Hatred (Shining Finger theme)
Robin charged forward, thrusting his hand in front of him and shouted, "Here I go, Shining FINGER!" The light coming from his palm began to shine brighter until it covered his whole hand entirely as he darted forward and grabbed Garrick's head by the face.
"What's going on!" the barbarian chief shouted as he felt heat and energy begin to sear his head and body.
The tactician gave a deathly stare as his eyes met Garrick's, the axmen looked back at Robin in fear as he winced in pain. Robin began to tighten his grip, ready to kill the man when he noticed a strange symbol beginning to glow on the back of his hand.
"Hmm? What could that be?" he wondered.
The symbol was a set of six eyes with odd extensions, they sat atop an altered crescent with two tail like lines swirled around each other at the bottom. He stared as the crest began to turn from purple to red as if it was heating up, it was mesmerizing like staring at fire. But suddenly Robin remembered something and snapped back to what he was doing.
He tilted himself back a little and lifted the brigand entirely off the ground. He stepped back a bit ready to throw the man by the face like how someone pitches a ball. Just before he let go, all the light in Robin's hand dispersed in an explosion.
The barbarian cried out, "Bwaaargh!" As he flew through the air. His body crashed down into the river that ran through the town only to float back up face down and slowly drift away.
The last of the energy faded from Robin's hand as the symbol on the back of his hand changed from red back to purple. He let out a sigh of relief...
"Well, that's the end of that." the tactician pronounced as he met up with the others.
BGM: FIRE EMBLEM AWAKENING- But Frederick it's nearly dark!
"Lucky for the town, we were close by. But holy wow, Robin! You were incredible! Swords, sorcery, AND tactics! Is there anything you can't do?" Lissa asked in amazement.
"You're certainly no helpless victim, that much is for sure." Chrom added.
"Indeed." Frederick stated, "Perhaps you might even be capable of an explanation for how you came here?"
"I understand your skepticism, Sir Frederick. And I cannot explain why only some knowledge has returned to me...or what manner of magic I can use..." The tactician paused, "...But please, believe me. I have shared all that I know."
"You fought to save Ylissean lives, My heart says that's enough." The blue swordsman reassured.
"And your mind, milord?" the weary knight wondered, "Will you now heed its council as well?"
Chrom sighed, "Frederick, the Shepherds could use someone with Robin's talents. We've brigands and unruly neighbors, all looking to bloody our soil. Would you really have us lose such an able tactician? Besides, I believe his story, odd as it might be."
"Th-thank you, Chrom." Robin replied with a renewed smile.
"So how about it? Will you join us, Robin?" Chrom asked as he offered his hand.
"I would be honored." the tactician extended his arm and the two shook.
BGM: DARK CLOUD- Main Theme Bossa Nova/Ending version (Just let this play out)
The real present...
"Well that's how I joined the Shepherds, pretty good so far right?... You guys?..." Robin asked as he looked around at his audience, all passed out. He couldn't help but smile as he looked at his family sleeping away on the floor. The light from the fire place softly warming them as they lay bundled up with one another.
"Ooops, guess I over did it... goodnight everyone."
Authors Note: So that's it for the technical pre-game/story stuff, now we're gonna get into the meat of the story. I know the G-Gundam might be a little heavy in the story but I really think it works out nicely. Also I will try to cut down on the pre-story stuff.
Anyway till next time...
