Marth: Altean Prince
Marth is the prince of Altea, a kingdom on the continent of Archanea. Long ago, Marth's predecessor Anri used the Falchion to seal away the Shadow Dragon, Medeus—but Medeus later returned to exact his revenge upon the kingdom.	Medeus was assisted by Gharnef, the Dark Pontifex, who stole the Falchion to keep it from being used again. His plans were foiled when Marth reclaimed the sacred blade during the war with Medeus's forces, the Dolhr Empire!	With the Falchion in hand, Marth fought with a great host of allies at his side to finally defeat Medeus.	Marth is an inspiring figure who led people from all walks of life to achieve great things. I hope he can help bring all of the Heroes here in Askr together as well!

Marth: Altean Groom
Marth, prince of Altea, is here to join the fun at the bridal festival! He's attired in a suave-looking groom's outfit just for today!	This bright and colorful outfit features blue and red highlights on a white base. Apparently, the flower on his shoulder was taken from Caeda's bouquet!	Marth has also equipped himself with a cake server that features a Falchion-like design: the Ardent Service! Those wedding cakes won't know what hit them.	Seems like Marth really came prepared for the festivities! I wonder if he's going to go and find Caeda now? It'd be so sweet to see the happy couple together!

Marth: Hero-King
Marth is the prince of Altea and a descendant of Anri, a fabled hero.	A hundred years ago, Anri defeated Medeus, the king of the earth dragons. But somehow, Medeus came back to seek his revenge...	To seal Medeus away once more, Marth set out to obtain the Fire Emblem—the Binding Shield—and the sacred Falchion.	And wouldn't you know it, Marth and his allies really did manage to utterly defeat Medeus for good! Nice job, Marth!

Marth: Royal Altean Duo
We've had all kinds of Heroes come to visit us at the winter festival, and now we're being treated to Duo Heroes! Marth and Elice, the prince and princess of Altea, have come to join the party!	They're wearing some incredible red outfits especially for the occasion. It's a great look for the both of them—festive and regal at the same time!	Look a little closer, past the cape and the scarf, and you'll see that they're actually dressed in variations of their usual outfits. It's personal touches like these that show how much care went into their look!	Marth fights for his friends, and Elice is equally willing to put the people she cares about before herself. The two are guaranteed to bring an extra dose of warmth and kindness to the winter festival!

Marth: Legacied Hero
What a cute little Hero this is! Do you recognize him? Go on, take a guess. That's right, it's Prince Marth of Altea!	Marth is a descendant of Anri, the hero who sealed away Medeus, the Shadow Dragon. He's only a young boy here, but doesn't he look so gallant?	Marth spent his childhood in the company of people like Jagen, Elice, and Merric. Perhaps it was their influence that nourished his natural kindness.	At this age, Marth is already full of potential! It's so nice to know that he was kind and noble even as a child!

Marth: Prince of Light
Wow! Doesn't Marth look even more heroic than usual today? That's because the outfit he's wearing is based on that worn by Anri, the Hero who founded Altea!	And of course, the sword he's carrying is the sacred Falchion! Anri once went on a quest to retrieve Falchion and brought it back to Altea, which was still only a town back then. He then used it to defeat the Shadow Dragon Medeus, ruler of the Dolhr Empire!	But true victory over Medeus had yet to come...until a century later, when Marth followed in Anri's footsteps to claim Falchion and slay the revived Shadow Dragon!	Anri was rewarded with a kingdom of his own, but he was unable to marry the woman he loved because of his common origins. So I hope Marth finds true and lasting happiness with his betrothed, Caeda!

Marth: Of Beginnings
Hello, Marth! You look different today! Did you always glow and float like that? Wait...you didn't turn into a ghost, did you?!	Oops, my mistake! It looks like this Marth is an Emblem—the "concept" of a Hero drawn from another world—and he was previously summoned in Elyos!	The Emblem Marth helped Lumera, the Divine Dragon Monarch of Elyos, and her child, Alear, during their struggle against the Fell Dragon Sombron.	Marth once saved the continent of Archanea long ago. Now, as an Emblem, they're counting on him to protect Elyos. He'll surely lead the Order of Heroes to victory next!

Marth: Love and Courage
Oh, look—it's Prince Marth of Altea and his betrothed, Princess Caeda of Talys! Looks like they're heading off somewhere, and they're dressed in slightly different attire from what they normally wear.	You can quickly tell that Marth's outfit was made with a painstaking eye for detail! His cape has a clasp with a shield-like design, and his surcoat is outlined with gold trimming that catches the eye.	Meanwhile, there's a touch of nostalgia present in Caeda's look. The simple leather belt she's wearing really brings out her neat and trim sense of style!	Oh, I can hear singing coming from where they're headed! It looks like everyone from Archanea has turned up and burst into song—is it some kind of celebration? I hope they don't mind if I join in!
