“ | My business? What do you mean? I heard my old friend was here in Laus. I merely thought I'd ride out to greet you! | ” | — Erik to Eliwood, when the latter and Hector are passing by Laus. |
---|
Erik (Japanese: エリック Erik) is the boss of the fourth chapter of Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade and the fourteenth chapter of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. He is Darin's son and an old acquaintance of Eliwood and Hector.
Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade
Role
Erik is the marquess of Laus. He betrays the Lycian League, choosing to side with Bern, out of fear. When Roy's army is passing through Laus on their way to Ostia, he is ordered by Narcian, a general from Bern, to stop them. Despite deploying Laus' full military power and even mercenaries, he is not able to stop Roy and is killed. Erik's betrayal casts a shadow of doubt on the Lycian League's stability.

Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade
Role
When Eliwood and Hector were pursuing Darin to question him on the disappearance of Elbert, Erik volunteers to stop them from crossing Laus.[2] Erik rides from the castle alone and and asks Eliwood if he is headed to Ostia and if he has spoken with Hector recently. This quickly draws Eliwood's suspicion and Erik has his nearby troops ambush Eliwood's group. Erik admits he is disappointed he was unable to get Eliwood to tell him if they had already met with Marquess Ostia and rides back to Laus to defend the castle gate.
When Erik begins struggling with Eliwood's forces, Darin flees Laus; abandoning Erik to defend the castle alone. Erik is eventually defeated and captured, Eliwood and Hector then interrogate him for info on his father's motives. They find out that Darin, since a year ago, has been manipulated by a mysterious figure named Ephidel and leave Laus to pursue Darin into Caelin.
