Okay, so the title is pun intended.
Chapter 17
Marth now fights to free the castle of Altea. There guarding the throne is a mage dragon named Morzas.
Uhh, what do you mean by Gharnef wanting her? (lol)
First, the team goes west, towards the room full of chests. I have to be careful with baiting the manaketes. They hit hard, as in literally hard.
One of the chests at the treasure room contains a Master Seal. Finally, I can promote another unit. This time, I'm promoting Catria, as she got really good stat growths. At level 1 Dracoknight, she got more strength and defense than Caeda at level 8 Dracoknight, but has less luck. Catria is currently my hardest hitting physical unit, with strength at 22.
Morzas may be powerful, but he has one flaw. He can't attack at long range. I would've used my own mages, but they do not deal any damage. The magestone protects the manakete from magic damage, but is only melee range. I have to use my Javelins and Hand Axes to slowly bring down his HP. Easy win.

Since this is the chapter where we get the VIP card, I also paid a visit to the shop at this chapter. Dragon killers are for sale. I grabbed some for the upcoming chapters.
Marth takes back the castle, but his sister Elice is taken by Gharnef. And his mother is slain by the dragon. What a sad homecoming for Marth.
Chapter 17x
Marth marches north, to Helena Castle. Helena Castle was an enemy base, There Marth plans to seize the last of the enemy supplies.
I had to bench Palla, as she won't be promoting this chapter, and she already hit level cap.
Chapter is pretty simple. Open the doors, and either have a chest inside, or an enemy, or both. Simple strategy is to have Julian open the lock, and someone is ready nearby, in case an enemy is inside.

| Surprise! Here's a manakete. |
After a few turns, some Paladins will be attacking from behind. They were no match to the bulk of my dracoknights.
Etzel can be seen but I just ignored him, so I can get his Elfire tome upon recruitment, then have him die next chapter.
The boss, Dactyl, is... another General with a mix of melee and ranged weapons. I just fought him head on with my axe users and he falls quickly.

| No, thank YOU for your free tome. |

| Give me money! |
The Sable Order! Are we going to fight Camus soon?
The adventure continues with Marth completing the items required for creating Starlight, magic than can pierce through Imhullu.
I'll be cutting of the writing here. The continuation of this challenge shall be posted in my Facebook page, in recorded gameplay, with written commentary.
