Plot

Main article: Helena Castle/Script

After the liberation of Altea, Marth and his companions travel to Helena Castle to seize Grustian supplies and root out the last of the invaders. Inside the castle, the Grustian general Dactyl forces a captive sorcerer named Etzel to fight for him in order to reclaim his stolen ring. Despite his efforts, Marth and co. wipe out the enemy and seize the castle. If Etzel survived the battle, he approaches Marth, thanks him for the rescue, explains that the ring was the last memento of his deceased wife, and offers his service in the coming conflicts.
