Fire Emblem Heroes: Grand Order


Introduction Part III: The World of Fire Emblem - Gaia


Gaia...

It is the name of this planet...

A planet filled of different events that can be called history that by certain group of creature known as humans...

Motivations... Beliefs... Progress... Upheaval... War... Peace... Creation... Destruction...

Anything can be followed by these kinds of events that caused the changes in the fate of the world for better or worst...

After all, anyone believe that an ultimate peace can be obtained through those options regardless of morals...

Ylisse...

Formerly known as Archanaea, the continent that is well-known for its history of certain heroes defeating certain Fell Dragons with a certain weapon blessed by the Divine Dragon Naga, called the Divine Sword Falchion, in the midst of its important wars, such as the War of Darkness and the War of Heroes...

Valm...

Located west of Ylisse, the continent, once called Valentia, well-known in this world as one that gave the history of the extremities and downfalls of the leaderships of its two gods, the siblings Duma and Mila...

Midgard...

Located east of Ylisse, once named Yggdral, the continent once notable of its ancient holy wars existing in all of its countries, causing inevitable tragedies and destinies among its inhabitants and making their fates lied on two things - just peace and sheer destruction...

Europe...

Located north of Midgard, originally called as Elibe, this region of a large continent known of its divine artifacts that was made by humans with its best technology on that time caused disasters in the world's nature in the wars between humans and dragons within, called the Scouring, to the point that the laws of physics had been distorted by the power of these weapons...

Valr...

Located at the southeast portion far east from Yggdral and an island of vast size found south of Yamato, previously Magi Val, the continent known of its encounters with a powerful demon, Fodeath, who wanted domination on its continent but was ultimately defeated by certain heroes wielding its sacred weapons...

Terra...

Bounded Elibe at its eastern part, formerly Tellius, this region of a certain large continent, comprising Elibe, Terra and Yamato, that revealed the history of the evolution of humans and other creatures to others, as well a history of a certain goddess, Ashunera, who only wanted happiness within oneself, along with its inhabitants who created the wars for the sake of such deity's feelings...

Yamato...

Bounded Terra at its southern part, like most others, it is one that also had wars involving dragons and humans, with the latter only being used the former as their pawns for their own purposes and benefits, and like Valm, it is also one whose history focusing more on the moralities of the leadership among the descendants of the First Dragons...

For some in this world, these continents created heroes and villains... or for others, villains and heroes...

After all, these people caused the death of many lives in each of their own battles for so-called peace...

A certain someone in this modern time had once said...

There is no hope on a battlefield. There is nothing but unspeakable despair. Just a crime we call victory, paid for by the pain of the defeated. But humanity has never recognized this truth. And the reason is that, in every era, a dazzling hero has blinded the people with their legends, and kept them from seeing the evil of bloodshed. True human nature has not advanced a step beyond the Stone Age...

Also, all of these continents in this world are very well-known of one name...

Fire Emblem... no, the Holy Grails...

Whether be it the Shield of Seals...

The Crystal of Valm...

The Crest of Vala...

The National Treasure of Svizra...

The Sacred Stone of Rausten...

Lehran's Medallion...

Or even the Omega Yato...

These artifacts are known by that one name...

These relics are now sealed elsewhere not known by almost everyone in each of their respective continents, for those people responsible thought these relics should not fall in the wrong hands if the world wanted to become a prosperous one. Indeed, these relics were also believed to be able to change the fate of the world...

As of this modern era, a certain equilibrium between peace and destruction still exist in this world through the same methods as the history...

Truly, history repeats itself...

However, not everything has been repeated by itself as of this modern era, the world is now believed to be filled with certain mystery controlled by an unknown...

With that, new story that determined the future of mankind, known as the "children of wisdom" through the history of Terra - or even of other creatures, like the Laguz, known as the "children of strength", or the dragons - is about to happen...

A story that will all started at a certain place in the country of Silesse in the continent of Midgard...

A story whose opponent is the history itself...


AUTHOR'S NOTE:

Regarding the world of this story...

1. The continents Valm/Valentia and Ylisse/Archanaea were Gaia's equivalents to Earth's North America and South America, except Valentia is located on where the State of Hawaii can be found and Archanaea is in the midway between those two continents.

2. The continent of Yggdral/Midgard is Gaia's Africa. It is notable that Yggdral is inverted here, so Silesse is now the southernmost country in Yggdral, while Thracia, Isaach and Manster are now on the western part, rather than the east.

3. The continent of Elibe/Europe is Gaia's Europe, i.e. no longer a continent but rather a region belonging to a much larger continent called Eurasia (Gaia's Eurasia).

4. The continent of Magi Val/Valr is Gaia's Australia.

5. The continent of Tellius/Terra is Gaia's Southeast Asia, i.e. no longer a continent but rather a region belonging to a much larger continent called Eurasia (Gaia's Eurasia).

6. The continent of Yamato (FE Fates didn't gave this continent a name) is Gaia's East Asia, i.e. no longer a continent but rather a region belonging to a much larger continent called Eurasia (Gaia's Eurasia).

So, Gaia's equivalents of the South Asia, the Islamic territories, and the Russian territories remained unknown. I know what continents to put there... But those aren't worthy to mention right now, especially there was no information about Fire Emblem Switch... This story will be starting soon once Memories reached a certain point...
