Often considered the black sheep of the games released in the West, Shadow Dragon might get a bit of an unfair rep. Once grown up, Marth sets out to free his homeland, Altea, from the grips of Gra and become a man worthy of wielding the sacred Falchion blade.
Luckily, Marth managed to escape to Talys, a small island nation, where Marth manages to stay incognito for a few years.
His father left him in the care of his trusted ally, Gra, who only backstabbed the king and murdered him and everyone Marth knew and loved. Despite being a prince, Marth has lived a pretty rough life.
