The Scarlet Sword (Japanese: 紅の剣士 Crimson Swordsman) is the seventh chapter of Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem Book II and Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.

Plot

Main articles: The Scarlet Sword/Script and The Scarlet Sword/Conversations

Marth's forces reach the Fane of Raman to find a group of thieves escaping with the temple's treasures. Surrounded by the thieves are Phina, who has gotten lost, and Navarre, who has turned on the thieves to take her to the Altean army, claiming there is someone among them he wants to see.

The battle begins, and Marth's army eventually kills the thieves' leader – Dall – and checks the interior of the Fane of Raman, only to find it completely destroyed. Jagen recalls the tale of Naga, then tells Marth they must seize Chiasmir Bridge before the Empire takes complete control of it. Hence, Chiasmir Bridge becomes the Altean army's next objective.

Trivia

  • Legacy of Archanea contains a localization of Jagen's telling of the myth of Naga. However, the localization takes many liberties, removing mention of Naga being a minor deity among many, turning Naga's giant form into a separate character and referring to them with feminine pronouns as opposed to masculine ones.
  • In New Mystery of the Emblem, it is possible, with a combination of Rescue and dance, to have a Paladin or Dracoknight reach and kill Astram on turn 1. The developers seemingly did not anticipate this possibility, as Astram will still appear and contribute dialogue in an event a few turns into the chapter.
