Description Eliwood:Hector, you still remember that time?
Hector:What time?
Eliwood:You know, what was it--ten years ago? When the lords of Lycia held the oath rites, back in Ostia? "Should one land of Lycia be attacked, all will fight at one..." Remember? While our parents were off pledging thier oaths, we were kids in that one room.
Hector:Yeah, I remember. We had to act in a manner befitting the children of nobility, or some such nonsense. I just remember being stuck in there, having to sit in that chair talking to whoever was next to me. Course, wouldn't you know that Erik of Laus was on my right? Man, I heard more than enough sweet talk from that one!
Eliwood:Right, right. That was the first time any of us met, after all. He had no idea who you were--he just wanted to get in favor with a lordling of Lycia.
Hector:Aye, he was all mouth anyway. Saying things like "let us join forces for the good of Lycia," and such...then running when things turned sour.
Eliwood:Aw, don't be too hard on him. When he jumped up, yelling about us swearing our own oaths, then cut his hand like that...No one else knew what to do, either.
Hector:Well, everyone's heard the stories. They all know it's the warrior's custom. Each cuts his own hand, then shakes hands with his brothers...What man wouldn't want to do that? Only one had the guts to meet him, though.
Eliwood:...You know, back then, I'm proud I took your hand. We are friends, sharing a life-dream now, an ambition. When one is in danger, the other risks his life to protect him...That's why you came, isn't it? Because you remembered?
Hector:Heh. I've got no plans to break my oath. Not now, not ever.
Eliwood:Likewise.
Hector:Well, then lets live long and in health! I don't want to hear any excuses about not being able to come help when we're old men.
Eliwood:It's a deal. ...Stay alive, Hector.
Hector: Deal. And don't you go dying before me, either. I'd never forgive you.

Part of a contest I'm joining,anyone interested,link's right here: www.deviantart.com/journal/Con…

Thinking about it now,it's been a while since I entered a contest and since there's one right now,why not? Like the topic of the contest,supports,as it focuses on the character development Fire Emblem's been known for. As for my choice of support,I went with Eliwood's and Hector's A-support from Blazing Sword,cos I really think I can go somewhere with this,and I'm not intending to go with any romance or any of the like in this submission and the next one I'm planning on making. These 2 really screamed 'bros' when I played this game for the 1st time, you see them joke around,being blunt about their faults and lastly caring about each other. It really does make hearts warm. But.....their story doesn't end well,despite the oath they took as kids,Hector still got killed brutally by Zephiel and poor old sick Eliwood could do nothing to help him. Playing Binding Blade really makes me feel incredibly sorry for the 2 as this is one heck of a case of irony. Not only that,when playing Blazing Sword,the foreshadowing to their fates is really noticeable once you're aware.....that's sad....

Fire Emblem belongs to Nintendo
