Follow Marth on the journey that started it all. From defending the kingdom of Talys to facing off against the titular Shadow Dragon, the humble hero himself must be poised to take on any challenge. Luckily, he has a capable group of allies at his side: Tiki, Minerva, the Whitewing Sisters and more. Of course, Caeda, princess of Talys, makes her appearance as a skilled fighter and Marth's love interest. In the Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light game, guide Marth to seize the throne in each chapter while keeping him out of harm's way. If Marth dies, it's game over, but all other characters will be gone for the rest of the game if they fall in battle. Make a mistake and lose a favorite unit?
