After the party reclaimed Aquleia, other Etrurian powers gradually began to change their views and express their discontent with the Revolutionaries. Driven away from their palace, Roartz and Arcard fled to Ilia, which was still under Bern's control.

Ilia, also known as the Frozen Highlands, was a harsh land with short summers and long winters. With little arable land, the nation's main source of income was to send out mercenary knights to fight for pay.

Etruria joined forces with the Lycia Alliance Army to form a joint force under the name of the Etrurian Army, with Roy as its commander. Their first mission was to enter Ilia and finish off the remaining Revolutionaries. Once that was done, they would proceed to launch direct attacks on Bern. With the powerful backing of the Elimine Church, the team had the populace on his side.

However, now there was the freezing cold of Ilia, as well as Bern's elite troops under General Murdock, the leader of the Three Wyvern Generals and King Zephiel's Second in Command! In addition, many of the powerful Ilian mercenary knights had submitted to Bern's side.

As a start, you lead the charge for Castle Raemy, located on the Ilian border.

Right now... 

Murdock was conversing with Gale. 

Murdock: So, Narcian is dead. 

Gale: Yes. Lord Murdock, did we really not have to aid him?

Murdock: Those were the king's orders. Besides, the Bern army has no use for a man who cannot clean up his own messes.

Arcard and Roartz then appeared. 

Roartz: Lord Murdock... What will become of us?

Murdock: Lord Arcard, I will entrust this land of Raemy to you. Lord Roartz, I will have you take the land of Edessa. You must make preparations to retaliate.

Arcard: What!? Raemy is right on the border! The enemy will arrive in no time!

Murdock: True. But this position also allows us to launch attacks on Etruria easily. Make sure this castle does not fall.

Roartz: Edessa... It is deep in the wastelands of Ilia...

Murdock: That would give you plenty of time to prepare your forces, would it not?

Arcard: Could you not...take back Etruria for us?

Murdock: We could. However, when we do, Etruria will go under Bern's rule.

Roartz: No! That won't do.

Murdock: Then I suggest that you find a way to deal with the situation yourselves. Excuse us.

Murdock and Gale then took off. 

Roartz: ...

Outside... 

Gale: My lord, were we supposed to dispose of those two like that?

Murdock: Don't worry. Bern's code says that every individual must be able to deal with the consequences of his own actions. ...The enemy leaders, (Y/N) and Roy. 

Gale: Yes?

Murdock: I must admit, they have done a superb job of rebuilding the Alliance Army after we crushed it, so... If I have the chance, I would like to have the honor of fighting them both.

Soon... 

You, Roy, and Douglas noticed Arcard.

Douglas: That's Arcard. 

(Y/N): WHY THAT- 

He had more Wyvern Riders with him. 

(Y/N): Roy! Let's take out the Wyvern Riders! Douglas, he's yours! 

Douglas: Thank you. 

Douglas rushed off and found Arcard. 

Douglas: TRAITOR! 

Arcard: ARGH! DOUGLAS! 

Douglas: You will pay for leaving Etruria in ruin! 

Arcard: WHY YOU! YOU HAVE THE GALL TO- 

Douglas swung at his cheek. 

Douglas: Enough talk. We settle this right here and now. 

Arcard: VERY WELL! 

The two continued to fight over and over until- 

Douglas: AAAAAAAAAAAARGH! FOR ETRURIA!! 

He struck Arcard down. 

Douglas: Pathetic. Look what power does to you. 

Soon... 

You were holding onto the Fire Emblem tightly. 

Roy: (Y/N) is that- 

(Y/N): The Fire Emblem. Guinevere entrusted it to me. She's ... she's going through so much. 

Roy: It's true. She's against her own brother. To be honest, she's going to be seen as a traitor to her country. 

(Y/N): I swear, we're going to make things right. Now, let's find that weapon.
