Appearance(s)

Pherae (Japanese: フェレ Pherae) is one of the marches of Lycia in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade and Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. Located in the southeast corner of Lycia, sharing its eastern border with Bern, it is one of the best known marches. It is also bordered by the sea to the south and by Santaruz to the north and west.

According to The Blazing Blade, Pherae has been at peace for a long time. It is shown to maintain a good relationship with the other members of the Lycian League, especially Ostia and Santaruz.

As seen in the maps, Pherae's landscape mostly features grass and some forests; it is also bordered by the sea to the south and some mountains to the east.

Most of the characters who come from this march use swords, lances or bows, as they are part of the Pheraen army. The notable exceptions are Eleanora, who is pictured as a bishop in-game, and Dan, whose class is unknown.

Known rulers of Pherae are Elbert in The Blazing Blade, Eliwood in The Binding Blade, and Roy after the events of The Binding Blade.
