Fire Emblem: Hasha no Tsurugi

Set on the fictional continent of Elibe, this manga serves as a side story to the Game Boy Advance title Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. Following the brutal conquest of Ilia and Sacae, King Zephiel of the militant kingdom of Bern turns his sights toward Lycia. When Eliwood falls ill, his son Roy is called home to command Pherae's army against the looming invasion. During the escalating conflict, Roy encounters Guinevere, Zephiel's younger sister, who has fled her homeland seeking a way to prevent the imminent war between Bern and Lycia. After the death of Marquess Hector, Roy assumes leadership of the Lycian League and shoulders heavy responsibilities. He vows to protect both Princess Guinevere and Hector's daughter, the mage Lilina, while striving to save the entire continent from Zephiel's mysterious thirst for world domination. Yet, the true hero of this narrative is Al, the fifteen-year-old son of a Bernian blacksmith. Armed with his father's sword, Al leaves home to embark on his own adventure across a war-torn land, forging a separate path through the very same continental crisis.
