TheWhitewinged Order (Japanese:白騎士団White Knights) is an order of knights in the service ofMacedon, led by its PrincessMinerva and acting as either a counterpart to or a subdivision of theDragoons led by KingMichalis. The unit is comprised of Minerva herself and a trio of Macedonian knight sisters:Palla,Catria andEst. Like the Dragoons, it is an airborne military unit; all of its members ride flying mounts, mainly thepegasi from which the order derives its name. Members of this group are called Whitewings.
Overview
In theWar of Shadows, the Whitewinged Order was forced to comply with the whims of Michalis in alliance withDolhr, with Minerva's younger sisterMaria held hostage inCastle Deil. During this time, they formed a temporary alliance withHardin and hisAurelian knights - ostensibly their enemy - in suppressing a dangerous insurrection by the Macedonian deserterRuben. Near the war's end, whenMarth,Nyna andHardin's liberation army was beginning to gain momentum, the Whitewinged Order was deployed to Lefcandith Valley to obstruct their progress toward theArchanean capital, but pulled out when Minerva refused to comply withHarmein's questionable tactics.
Catria was later sent to Marth inPyrathi to request assistance in freeing Maria, and so Marth travelled to Castle Deil and successfully did so. Minerva then joined with Marth's forces, but by this point the rest of the order had been scattered, split up to different areas by Dolhr out of fear of them turning coat. The Whitewinged Order was later deployed toGra to assist in its defense from Marth's impending army, much to the displeasure of KingJiol, and there Catria and Palla joined Marth's army. Est, however, had taken off in pursuit of theMercurius, having heard of it falling into the hands ofGrust; she successfully retrieved it and took it to Marth's army.
During the three years after the War, Est was captured by the pirateGrieth and taken away toValentia. Catria and Palla pursued her there and, in order to better facilitate finding her, allied withCelica and her resistance army. The army eventually reached Grieth's fortress in the easternZofian desert, where Est was found and released from captivity. The three sisters continued to serve with Celica andAlm until the war's end, whereupon they departed for home. At some point after this, Est marriedAbel, a formerAltean knight, retired from the Whitewinged Order and settled down with him in Altea.
At the onset ofLykke's coup against Minerva, Catria and Palla barely escaped the onslaught, while Minerva was defeated and captured. Catria encountered Marth's expedition force, having just arrived from Grust, while Palla worked withJulian to try and find the missingLena and Maria until Marth's forces arrived, then joined up with Marth's forces. At request, Lykke handed Minerva over to Michalis, who took her to a village inKhadein to rest and wait for Marth; when Marth himself arrived after fleeing the Archanean army, Minerva joined him in order to facilitate searching for Maria. The three remained with Marth's army throughout theWar of Heroes, and Est temporarily rejoined them after being rescued from captivity at the hands ofEibel.
