Fire Emblem : The Sacred Stones

Fire Emblem: Seima no Kōseki is the third portable Fire Emblem game on Game Boy Advance. Unlike the previous two, this one takes place on a brand new continent called Magvel, which was populated by evil monsters. Men once sealed the evil forces using the five Holy Jewels, which later became heirlooms to the five different royal families. The game starts out with the Empire of Grado conquering the Kingdom of Renais. Unfortunately, the crown prince, Ephraim, was away and knowing that he would not stand much chance against the Imperial army, King Fado ordered the loyal Seth to escort Princess Eirika and seek help from the neighboring Kingdom of Frelia.

Henceforth you could start gathering new characters to improve you fighting force. Despite starting the game as Eirika, you would later be reunited with your twin brother and then be given the choice to choose your own main Lord between the two. The following chapters would then be different depending on your choice. You would then begin on your quest to pay visit to the many countries of Magvel and gather allies in order to defeat the villain who unleashed this unspeakable power of darkness in the first place. Seth gives Ephraim and Eirika their divine weapons, which are the Siegmund and Sieglinde respectively.

The game boasts sub-maps and a class change system that allows the player to select a class to upgrade to. It also beefs up level-building capability. Fire Emblem: Seima no Kōseki has a gameplay engine reminiscing that of Fire Emblem Gaiden.

Fire Emblem: Seima no Kōseki was scored by Saki Haruyama, Yoshihiko Kitamura, and Yoshito Hirano, and under the supervision of Yuka Tsujiyoko. The arena battle theme of Fire Emblem: Seima no Kōseki was originally the player battle theme of Fire Emblem Gaiden.
