Long ago, King Tsarkon of Cartahen unleashed
evil hordes upon the peaceful land of
Excalabria. Though the people of Excalabria
fought bravely, in the end, they were
overwhelmed.
As his castle collapsed around him, King Erik V of
Excalabria summoned Blade, his most trusted
servant. Erik commanded Blade to escape with
Erik's infant son and the Ring of Wisdom, an ancient
family heirloom.
Blade slipped out a secret passage as the castle
was engulfed in flames. He fled with the babe to a
distant village and raised teh child as his own.
Tsarkon vowed to devote all of Cartahena's power
to searching for the Prince. Eighteen years have
passed since Tsarkon began his search.
Thus begins
Sword of Vermilion. You control the
Prince that escaped that day (he will be called Erik,
just for referance to this walkthrough.)
