An exalt, haunted by her father's legacy, seeks to bring peace to the world. A king, blind with hatred, would bring war upon his own people in the wake of his vengeance. A noble prince, desperate to protect his family, faces any challenge with his head held high, no matter the odds. In the chaos that follows, Robin the tactician must find his own path, even without his memories.
Following Soren, the ancient branded tactician of Tellius lore, Morgan ventures east to a distant land, searching for her lost friend, unaware of her sister and Lucina's desperate pursuit. But when Morgan and her companions find Tellius veiled by the shadow of war, the young tactician, unwilling to leave Tellius to its fate, dives willingly into the darkness.
Lost in the distant world of Tellius, Owain joins a company of treasure hunters, seeking to reclaim the lost Dominion Scepter. Though the road home was long ago lost, and the path ahead remains shrouded in mystery, Owain marches on undaunted. But even as he and his new companions strive to unravel the mystery of the pillars, a calamitous shadow looms ominously over all of Tellius.
Plagued by nightmares, and fearing for her lost friend, a young tactician sets out on a new journey, thinking it to be a simple matter. Unwilling to let her make such a journey alone, her friends and family hurry to follow. But their quest is far more complicated than it seems, for they soon find another world altogether, embroiled in slowly festering chaos.
A collection of short stories meant to accompany my retelling of Fire Emblem: Awakening. Some stories are heavily inspired, and reference, the events of the "optional" chapters from FE:A (Paralogues and Xenologues, for instance). May take requests for additional entries. Please see the Foreword for more information.
Despair looms over the Shepherds, darker and more terrible than ever before, now that the Fire Emblem is lost. In a desperate bid to avert the dark future that has been foretold, Robin does the unthinkable. The future has changed, and though no one knows where it may lead, the Shepherds have no choice but to follow the road ahead. The road of the Recusant.
Peace has returned to Ylisse, and the Shepherds have settled comfortably into their new lives. But far in the west, the continent of Valm remains embroiled in conflict, and the war now threatens to spill into Ylisse. Robin and his friends must face the legendary warrior who styles himself the "Conqueror," with more at stake than ever before, even as the shadows of despair lengthen.
