Disclaimer: I don't own Fire Emblem, Nintendo does. I own the plot and the name of the tactician. A good number of Fire Emblem Blazing Sword Characters will be mentioned, and a few will make an appearance in this story. I do not own Michael he belongs to Cloud-Link-Zero who's allowed me to have him in the story. I do own the other character Alice Bianchi who is Will's sister.

A/N: This story was inspired by Kaze-Kami-Ha. The tactician appears in this story and is in a series: A Prequel: Fire Emblem 7: Lord Tactician; which tells how the tactician came to be known. Fire Emblem 8: Sacred Stones: The tactician's journey in Magvel and a paring of Tactician and Eirika. Fire Emblem 6: Binding Blade: Where the Tactician returns to Elibe to help his friends' children against Bern.

Victory! Finally the War with Nergal is over! Sadly we lost Athos after defeating the dragon. Ninian is back, somehow Bramimond managed to revive her and now she is staying with Lord Eliwood due to Nils convincing. A few of our company have found love including my sister Lyn to Lord Hector though he better treat her properly or I will knock him on his butt when I'm visiting Ostia! Strange enough our newest companion Renault has vanished. I'm so happy for everyone yet….

Will's War Journal (Elibe Vol. 2)

Will Bianchi has a strange wind blowing about him and I believe he is destined to lead the forces of light against any darkness. But there is one thing I never told him after he asked me about his future. I also saw his future if he managed to leave Elibe leading another army to victory and managing to rebuild House Bianchi. I ask you to never repeat this to anyone, I also saw Will falling in love with a blue-haired princess.

Interlude II

Will sighed leaning against the wagon as the army took a break from their march, "Well, I'm glad we've been able to return to Frelia without being attacked. It's nice to take a break from the fighting and just have the members of our company spar against one another so I can learn their individual strengths."

"Plus it helps to increase one's strength so they can last longer in battle," Eirika added siting on the wagon, "Will, I've noticed you've been watching Myrrh a lot lately," Will glanced at the girl in question as she was talking to Ephraim, "Can you share your thoughts with me please?"

"I have some idea of what she is," he replied turning to face her, "and I believe she'll be a valuable ally. One we will need and be grateful to have."

Eirika smiled. It was nice to talk to Will again after letting him talk with Ephraim. Yet Will had sought her out for her company after drawing near Ide and hadn't left her side unless she needed some privacy.

"Well it seems Seth has called us to move out," he informed her, climbing beside her and taking the reins.

(Scene Change)

It wasn't long 'til Castle Frelia was in sight and shortly after they reached the castle they were admitted quickly. Will dismissed the troops ordering to help resupply the wagons and wait for his return with Ephraim and Ericka failing to notice Matthew had disappeared.

As Will, Ephraim, Eirika and Myrrh (who trailed after them) walked to the door leading to the throne room, Tana intercepted them, "Eirika! Ephraim! Will! You all have returned safely, my prayers have been answered!"

"It's good to see you again Tana," replied Eirika, smiling.

"Thank you for your prayers Tana, and it's great to be back," added Will.

"I'm sorry that I worried you, Tana," Ephraim put in, "I didn't want you to worry."

"Oh, it's the past so it doesn't matter," Tana replied quickly, hugging her friends, "All that matters is that we've been brought together again and my own brother will return soon from the front. It will be nice to sit down and talk to each other."

"It would be nice to rest for a day," Will admitted, "We'll see if we'll have time after meeting with your father."

"Princess Tana!" All turned to see a guard saluting them, "Prince Innes has returned from the front!" He finished as a man walked in with a bow over his shoulder his silver hair matching his demeanor.

"Welcome home, dear brother," Tana grinned, hugging the man, "I'm so happy to see you return safely."

"You didn't expect less, did you?" Innes asked scoffing as Tana released him, "Do you think those Grado slugs could touch me? With my bow I'll take down every Grado soldier from here to the Emperor's palace!" He continued as the twins and the tactician approached him.

"Well met, Innes," Ephraim greeted simply.

"…Ephraim." Innes replied calmly.

"It's good to see you Prince Innes," Eirika bowed slightly.

He returned the gesture.

"….And you are?" Innes asked glancing at the man standing near the twins.

"This is Will, Will Bianchi," Eirika replied, "He's my tactician."

"Really now?" asked Innes looking over Will again, "I'd heard he was riding with you, but I thought it was just a rumor."

"Not a rumor, Your Highness," replied Will, "I came to Magvel to explore your continent after I'd grown restless on Elibe,. Yet just a year after coming here another war started. Someone in Grado found out I was here but luckily I ran into Princess Eirika when I did otherwise you'd be fighting against me albeit unwillingly."

"True, I wouldn't want to be facing the Lord Tactician in battle," Innes mused, "So now what do you think of Magvel?"

Will gave a well thought out answer to which Innes extended a hand and he and Will shook as Innes continued, "I'm honored to meet you Sir Will."

"Just Will please."

Innes nodded and turned to the twins, "….I've heard Renais had fallen. I believe I warned you before that this would happen because you provided Grado the opportunity to strike."

"Brother! Mind your tongue!" Tana cried, "This isn't the occasion for harsh words. Ephraim and Eirika have lost their father to this terrible war…." She paused briefly.

"I'm sorry to hear of your father's death," Innes spoke softly, "Hear me Ephraim our most important task is to defeat Grado and end this terrible war." He finished and turned about to the guard opening the door to the throne room.

"Oh, Innes…" Tana sighed as the door closed.

"Interesting fellow that one." Will mused.

"I'm sorry Will, Ephraim, Eirika," Tana apologized, folding her arms.

"It's alright," replied Ephraim, "It's comforting to see that he hasn't changed at all. Innes has hated me for as long as I can remember."

"My brother looks upon you as a rival Ephraim," she turned to Will, "and I'm sure you as well, Will," she sighed, "He always wants to prove that he is the best at everything. The best king, the best general, the best fighter, the best man…he won't allow himself to be beaten at anything…."

"Tana, you talk too much," Innes called out as he exited the throne room, "…My father would like you all to sit with him in council. Will you come with me to take part in your official audience?"

"Yes of course," replied Ephraim, "There's much I have to tell him."

"It will be an honor to attend," added Eirika.

Will simply nodded quietly.

"This way," gestured Innes.

(Scene Change)

"It does my heart good to see you all here safely within our castle walls," greeted Hayden, "I wish that we had more time for pleasantries but let's hear your news."

"Very well, I will begin," started Innes, "I've directed the majority of Frelia's army south and engaged Grado directly. Our troops are proving themselves superior and the battle progresses favorably."

"Hmm…" Hayden mused, "But the riddle still needs answering. Why did Grado start this war in the first place?"

"Your Majesty, we may have found something relating to that matter…." Eirika stated, "We learned something during our travels; the news has weighed heavily on us."

"Ah yes," replied Hayden nodding, "Our messenger delivered your report to us a few days ago. Grado is trying to destroy the Sacred Stones….is that it?"

"Indeed, Your Majesty," answered Eirika. "One of our companions, a cleric name Natasha, told us this after we rescued her from Grado forces who were trying to silence her."

"We've strengthened the tower's defenses," informed Hayden, looking grim, "Frelia's stone is safe for the time being, but we remain confused to the reasons why Grado would come after these relics."

"I'm sorry to say this King Hayden but the answer to those questions probably won't be answered unless we delve deeper into this mystery." Will replied.

"The legends say the stones protect us all from the power of darkness," Eirika put in.

"…I can't say if it relates, but I have a story about Grado," Ephraim spoke, "It's…..been troubling me, and I would like to share it with you all."

"Any information is welcomed," replied Will as Ephraim glanced toward the cloaked girl with indigo hair.

"Myrrh, come her please," Ephraim called out and the girl walking over to him.

"Yes?" Myrrh asked looking up at Ephraim.

"Who is this child?" Hayden asked. She let the cloak drop and everyone's eyes widened.

"On her back….are those wings?" Eirika gasped looking as golden-dragon wings on Myrrh's back stretched out slightly.

"This is Myrrh," answered Ephraim, "I met her while fighting in Grado territory. Myrrh would you please tell everyone the story you told me?"

The girl shyly looked around the room, speaking softly, "….Ephraim please tell them for me."

"She's a bit shy," Ephraim replied, "Very well, Myrrh tells me she belongs to an ancient race of dragon folk. They're mentioned in a few legends and are called the tribe of Manakete."

"Manakete?" asked Eirika.

"Yes, it makes sense but she's not like the one's I'm familiar with," Will said in agreement, everyone turned toward him and he shrugged, "Ninian and her brother Nils were half-human/half-dragon but they could maintain a complete human form except their otherworldly crimson eyes. So I do have an idea of what we are talking about."

Hayden nodded, "In Magvel their name appears several times in the tale of the Sacred Stones. It says they were neither human nor demon but a separate and aloof race."

"Please Myrrh," Ephraim encouraged her again as she stared at the floor.

"We live in the east…in Darkling Woods," Myrrh slowly began, "One day…." She paused looking away.

"Yes?" Eirika prompted, smiling encouragingly.

"We felt something. An ominous energy to the south," explained Myrrh.

"From the direction of Grado," Ephraim supplied, "they felt a….force flowing out of the Grado Empire."

"Salah and I…." Myrrh continued, "We went to investigate this energy but along our way we came across a battle and were drawn into the conflict…."

"Myrrh got lost and was wandering aimlessly in an isolated region near Grado's border." Ephraim supplied.

"I met some wicked folks there," Myrrh continued shivering, "They deceived me and enchained me and stole my dragonstone. They were preparing me for transport and it was at that moment that Ephraim appeared and rescued me from my imprisonment." She paused while Eirika and Will exchanged glances.

"I stumbled across Myrrh by chance when Grado's men ambushed us," Ephraim replied, "Everything she told me is beyond belief and yet….and yet when I saw her wings, what could I do but believe?"

"The dark wave of energy still flows from the southlands," Myrrh continued, "its current runs strong and deep and has awakened the evil ones. I want to stop it."

"Hmm…." Hayden mused lowering his head in thought.

'Myrrh's tale sound like when Nergal tampered with magic he shouldn't have tampered with,' thought Will, 'and the evil ones she probably talks about are the monsters we've fought. So many questions needing answers and we have so little information in our possession.'

"Your Majesty, I bring word!" a guard cried out rushing into the room.

"What is so urgent that you would interrupt a private counsel?' Hayden growled at the man as Seth followed him in.

"The tower holding the Sacred Stone of Frelia…" the man paused breathing heavily, "It's been destroyed by the Grado army!"

"What? Impossible!" Hayden cried, "What of the soldiers on watch? There were supposed to be many…."

"The enemy forces…." The man began, "They were led by Caellach the Tiger Eye and Selena Fluorspar! Our soldiers fell before even half a day past!"

"Selena Fluorspar…" Seth whispered, "Only General Duessel is higher in Emperor Vigarde's esteem…She's the one."

"She came personally…." Hayden gasped, "So they really do wish to see the Sacred Stones destroyed. Blast!"

Everyone in the room quieted, trying to figure out how the enemy managed to bypass the Frelian army and everyone drew up the same conclusion: someone working for Grado had warped the entire attacking force near the tower.

"How could this happen?" Hayden asked walking to his throne with help from Innes. His gaze was distant as if seeing beyond the doors, "How could I have allowed our Sacred Stone to be destroyed? Dark energies from the empire's capital….evil monstrosities roaming the land….Vigarde's mad invasion…and now this, the destruction of our sacred talisman And we still have no idea of Grado's goal. We are in dark times again, but even so we cannot even sit here wringing our hands. First we must warn the nations that house the remaining Sacred Stones. If Vigarde seeks to destroy the Stones they are in grave danger. Jehanna and Rausten must be warned. The nations must join together to fight our common foe."

"Do you think they would believe us?" Eirika asked.

"Hm…." Hayden mused, "It's a difficult tale to believe, I admit."

"I will go Father." Innes spoke.

"Innes?"

"A direct visit from the Prince of Frelia is something they cannot ignore," Innes replied, "I will travel to Jehanna where I will forge an alliance with her queen. If our Sacred Stone has been destroyed then Frelia is in great danger. Father, I cannot let you leave the nation in such a time of crisis. It is imperative that I be the one to go."

Hayden sighed nodding in agreement.

"And I will head to Rausten." Eirika added.

"Eirika," Ephraim began, "You know I can't let you put yourself in danger."

"Rest easy dear brother," Eirika replied, "I will travel to Rausten by ship across the North Sea. There will be no danger and I made a vow. I will fight as you have until the day Renais is liberated."

"…I understand." Ephraim answered simply turning to Hayden, "King Hayden, I will take troops and march on the imperial capital from the west."

"The west?" asked Hayden, "are you saying you will begin an assault on Grado from here?"

"If we can take the fight to Grado the war will be over," Ephraim explained, "The Sacred Stones will be safe."

"Bold, but not impossible," affirmed Will, "and it would give us a chance to protect the remaining stones."

"It will mean starting right here and pressing forward with all our might…." Ephraim continued.

"What about once you've reached the capital?" asked Hayden, "Vigarde's generals will be waiting for you."

"If they oppose us, we will fight," answered Ephraim.

"Plus by warning the other nations they could mobilize their forces to help out as well as protecting their stones." Will put in, "Still decisions like this are your own, and remember I am only an advisor when off the battlefield."

"…He has his father's foolhardy courage, but what do suggest?" Hayden asked the tactician.

"I would suggest that we continue on with what we have planned, and to use extreme caution in our travels," he replied.

"Very well, so will you accompany…," Hayden started before trailing off.

"I'll be accompanying the princess in her task." stated Will, drawing a confused look from Innes.

"Why would you choose not to aid Prince Ephraim?" asked Innes, "Wouldn't he need your experience more than Princess Eirika?"

Will glanced at Eirika before answering the Frelian Prince. "Prince Ephraim is a tactician in his own right, and I swore service to Princess Eirika and only her."

"…Will…thank you…" replied Eirika, smiling softly.

"It seems you have found a loyal and true friend Eirika," spoke Hayden grinning, "Very well then. In entrust all our hope upon you four. Innes you will go to Jehanna, Eirika and Will to Rausten and Ephraim to the imperial capital. You shall all have funding, but of soldiers we have few to spare because of the destruction of our Sacred Stone we need all the soldiers available to fight against the monsters except for those that will accompany my son and Ephriam. For each of you a difficult road lies ahead."

"If any of us meets defeat the tide will turn to Grado's favor," replied Ephraim, "There must be no errors."

"Well, this will definitely increase my reputation." Will muttered, drawing a small giggle from Eirika.

"Where I command there are no mistakes," added Innes.

"I have no doubts." Eirika added, "We'll succeed, I swear it. Come on now it's time to go."

"Before we set off I'd like to do some quickly planning with you two is that alright?" asked Will glancing at Ephraim and Eirika.

"Of course," answered Eirika, "but we need to move soon."

"And we will," replied Will, "but I have a feeling something is going to happen which might help us win this war."

(Scene Change)

As the twins and Will exited the castle, quietly talking to each other when suddenly a shape with lavender colored hair crashed into Will drawing him into a tight hug which Will responded by hugging the person wrapped around him.

"F…Florina?" asked Will as he released her, sea-green eyes meeting blue.

"Yes, it's me Will," replied Florina, hugging Will once more.

Slowly tears filled Will's eyes as he hugged Florina once again whispering, "What are you doing here?"

"I can answer that." A voice called out from behind Florina.

Will gasped as he glanced up at the speaker's voice. Standing alongside Matthew and Guy was Farina, Dart, Geitz, and Serra all were smiling as the tactician struggled to speak.

"Are you pleased to see us again, Will?" asked Serra with a grin.

Will started to laugh, released Florina and hugged everyone glad to be with familiar faces.

"What are you doing here?" asked Will after releasing Geitz "I never told anyone besides Eliwood, Ninian, Lyn and Hector where I was going."

"You can thank Matthew for bringing us together, "Florina answered, "He's the one who gathered us and sent us word once he found you here exploring Magvel."

"When was this?" Will demanded glaring at the thief.

"Oh about six months before the war started," relied Matthew, "Once I found you I sent word for everyone to travel to Magvel knowing you'd need help."

"True, I did hope I could call upon aid from my friends and family but when did you gather everyone up?"

"After I retired as a spy," Matthew explained, wincing, "and before we set off to rescue Prince Ephraim."

A coughing sound drew everyone's attention and Will flinched. He'd been so caught up in reuniting with everyone he'd forgotten momentarily that Ephraim and Eirika were with him.

"Will, is this your family and friends?" asked Eirika.

"Yes," replied Will, grinning, "and they've come to help us," he glanced towards the thief, "Guess your secret is out now."

After a quick introduction to everyone, and finding out that Farina and Dart were married, the twins and Will went in a small room Hayden granted them to quickly create a plan. Will insisted that Ephraim take everyone from Elibe, minus Dart and Guy, with him to attack the imperial capital and refused to take Kyle and Forde insisting Ephraim needed some cavalry support.

"Ok, Ok," replied Ephraim agreeing to Will's argument, "I'll take Kyle and Forde with me, but why don't you need Matthew?"

"Matthew has told me he's taught Colm everything he can about being an honorable thief," answered Will, "So Eirika and I already have one thief and we don't need another."

"And your reason for taking Dart?" Eirika asked.

"To train Ross since he's been promoted to Pirate," replied Will, "And Dart's the best pirate I've ever worked with."

"So my forces will consist of the what Frelian soldiers that can be spared along with Farina, Florina, Serra, Michael, Geitz, Matthew, Kyle and Forde while you are taking Seth, Franz, Vanessa, Joshua, Moulder, Natasha, Alice, Gilliam, Guy, Colm, Neimi, Lute, Artur, Garcia, Ross, and Dart."

"That is correct," answered Will, "You will have some of the best fighters from the campaign against Nergal."

They exited the room with Will, letting the siblings stay behind while he gave everyone their assignment.

"Farewell brother," Eirika murmured, "I will return."

"Hmmm," Ephraim mused, "To be honest I still don't want you to go. I would rather you wait here for my return."

"Please Ephraim," Eirika began, "I will be fine. There is no reason for you to worry, mine is the easiest task and with Will beside me I'll be in no danger. I'm far more worried about your mission. Challenging the might of the empire with a handful of men?"

"What is this now?" Ephraim chuckled, "Have you lost faith in me? Remember I'll have the support of some of Elibe's finest heroes."

"No of course not," replied Eirika, "I know your true strength and no one can defeat you, and I haven't forgotten who will be traveling with you."

"Hearing you say that fills me with confidence," Ephraim grinned, "but I think I know of my limitations, and I won't overextend my strength. I can't die and leave you on your own can I?"

"Ephraim…."

"Let us both survive to be reunited," Ephraim stated, "Give your word to me Eirika."

"You have it brother," replied Eirika embracing her twin.

"Ephraim, could I speak with you for a moment?" Will asked as Eirika exited the room.

"Sure Will, what do you want to talk about?"

"I…I believe I am falling in love with Eirika."

Ephraim's eyebrows rose at the tactician's bold statement. While surprised he knew that his sister was independent, headstrong, and a capable fighter which others looked down upon. Will was a perfect match for her because he believed in Eirika and her ability to prove herself.

"I understand if you have any objections I'll leave quietly without protest when this war is over." Will said bring Ephraim from his thoughts.

"Why would I object? You're more than welcome to marry my sister." Ephraim replied grinning. "But have you told her yet?"

Will shook his head from side to side before his eyes dropping to the floor. Ephraim sighed knowing why he hadn't told Eirika yet. The tactician didn't know if Eirika was falling in love with him. Smiling Ephraim motioned for Will to sit down so that he could help both his sister and the one man he'd be glad to have as a brother in-law.

(Scene Change)

"Guy, can I ask you a question?" asked Eirika as she watched the wagons being loaded. Looking over the camp she noticed the changes that Will had spoken of and changes he didn't speak on. Ross had acquired a hand-axe and two smaller axes which hung from his belt while his father tested his bow. Neimi was petting a tannish mare, a sword resting at her side, as Lute was talking with Artur about light magic while Franz and Gilliam moved about in new heavier armor learning to adjust to the new weight as Franz's horse was being fitted with protective armor.

"I see you're becoming a Great Knight." Gilliam commented as the workers finished fitting the protective armor for Franz's horse.

"Yes, but this armor is really heavy." Franz replied. "It may take a couple of days for me to become used to this extra weight."

"I know how you feel. Look at me I'm like a walking fortress."

"At least I'm lightly armored." Lute stated joining the two knights. "A ranger needs to be protected but still able to quickly dodge enemy attacks."

"What do you think about those two?" Franz asked pointing to Joshua and Natasha.

"I think the red-haired swordfighter likes the blond haired cleric." Alice stated joining the group.

"What was your question, Princess Eirika?" replied Guy breaking her from her thoughts as the same group jumped at Alice's silent approach.

"I thought Florina was shy of men, but she hugged Will without hesitation, why is that?"

"I also wondered that too, so I asked Lady Lyndis, and she told me that when Florina and Will first met Florina's shyness seemed to leave because she thought of him as a brother because he respected her comfort zone. So over time she was more open to him than the other men of our company," replied Guy.

"Thank you," Eirika answered thoughtfully as Will walked over.

"Guy, are we almost ready to move out?" asked Will.

"Yes, we are Will," he replied, "We were just waiting for you."

"Where were you?" asked Eirika.

"Sorry, but I wanted to tell Ephraim how to use the strengths of my friends and family and how to use those strengths to his advantage," the tactician informed them silently adding, 'and my feelings towards you.'

"Sir Will, King Hayden would like you to know that he has added more gold from what was left over from when you left to find Prince Ephraim," said a servant as two others placed the strongbox on the ground.

"Thank you," replied Will, "And give King Haydn my thanks as well."

The servants bowed and left. As Will and Guy loaded the strongbox onto the wagon Eirika noticed Tana walking briskly towards them.

"I'm glad I caught you before you left," spoke Tana, "I wanted to wish everyone a safe journey."

"Thank you Tana," replied Eirika, "you're a kind friend."

Tana blushed and hugged Eirika and Will before walking away while Guy watched smiling. The reunion with Florina, Farina, Geitz and Serra had been brief as they had already left with Ephraim.

"Are you ready to depart?" Will asked, turning to Eirika.

"I'm ready Will," replied Eirika.

"Alright then," the tactician beamed, "So Seth, please take point, Franz, and Gilliam follow behind and support Seth. Garcia, Alice, and Ross guard the flanks two on each side. Dart, Artur, Neimi and Lute please guard the rear. Vanessa, follow from above and scout ahead for us but I'd like regular reports. Joshua and Natasha please take the second wagon. Moulder and Colm please take the third wagon. Guy choose any position you want for now. Eirika please join me with the first wagon. Let's move out!"

(Scene Change)

The army slowly traveled down the road towards Carcino where Eirika hoped to hire a ship to reach Rausten. Everyone's guard was up, watching the countryside for Grado forces or monsters now that Frelia's stone was broken. Eirika had asked Will to tell her more about Elibe and Will was happy to answer all her questions and was now explaining the Nabata Deseret."

"Nabata is very hot and those of us from cooler temperatures were uncomfortable," said Will, "myself included but not like Florina and Fiora."

"Luckily you were not there for very long," stated Eirika, "but that sounds a lot like Jehanna."

"True," answered Will, "and those were my thought to when I first arrived and started learning about Magvel and its nations from a tactician's viewpoint."

Will turned to Eirika realizing that she had been silent for a while noticing that her gaze was on the road. He was glad they hadn't been attacked yet but knew that could all change in an instant. Yet he continued to pray that they would reach Rausten without too much difficulty.

"Is something troubling you Eirika?" asked Will.

"Do you think Grado will still chase after me?" she asked.

"I believe so," he replied, "They're not going to stop until they acquire both you and your brother's bracelet. As much as I would like for us not to fight, we will fight."

"Shall I be your peerless warrior?" The princess asked setting one of her hands on one his.

"Just like Lyn, eh?"

"Yes," Eirika affirmed, "You told me how she stated before your very first journey that she would be your peerless warrior, and both of you together helped to defeat to evils, and now I shall be your peerless warrior. I promise that I won't let you down!"

He smiled brightly knowing she would keep that promise. Like Lyn, Eirika would do everything to keep that promise. True Eirika could never replace Lyn but he decided that if Eirika achieved the same level of peerlessness he would hold them as equals.
