The eighth game in the Fire Emblem series, the third release for the Game Boy Advance, and the second to be released outside of Japan. This game stars the royal twins of Renais, Eirika and Ephraim, as they try to find out why neighbouring kingdom Grado attacked their land and investigate into rumours of the Demon King being revived.

Sacred Stones brings back many features last seen in Fire Emblem Gaiden, such as a world map the protagonists navigate before battles and freely repeatable skirmishes that allow the player to grind up strength if they are struggling. It also introduces split promotions, allowing a unit to take an alternative route for their growth.

This is PART2 of the project and acts as the timeskip expansion
after the events of PART1.

Firstly, get and play PART1 all the way to the end
of both story campaign and post-game dungeons.

You can find PART1 here:

The game is split in 2 parts:

PART1 (v1.36) is the updated original game with the original story, events and dialogue
but gameplay has been overhauled, with many new items being added, in addition to an enhanced skill system. Graphics have also been redrawn, and useful quality of life additions such as an in-game growth rate display have been implemented. Difficulty has been raised; the optional post-game dungeon has been designed to prepare you for PART2.

PART2 (v1.51) is the expansion with new events after a 6 month timeskip.
All new content is inside the newly updated Tower of Valni.
Difficulty is set for players who have finished everything in PART1
making PART2 hard and challenging.
