Marshland is a boggy swamp area in Serdio. It is east of Hoax, and home to the Seventh Fort of Basil. Dart and company are tasked with helping in the defense of the Seventh Fort as well as searching for the Dragon's Nest.

Story

Upon reaching the Marshland, Dart and company have the choice to either continue straight and defend the Seventh Fort, or to take the left path and continue to Volcano Villude.

If the party decides to defend the Seventh Fort, they will have to fight five sets of Sandora Soldiers and a Sandora Commander to end the battle. Dart and company then proceed inside to find that there is only one lone survivor. As they approach and speak to him, he reveals that the Sandora Army used the dragon in the battle. After his subsequent death, Lavitz swears, "We will wreak your revenge upon them." Upon inspecting a few of the deceased soldiers, it seems as though some of them have no physical wounds, which the group assumes to be the Dragon's poison as the culprit. When heading towards Volcano Villude, Shana twists her ankle in the mud, and Dart offers to give her a piggyback ride. After a short dialog between the two, Shana's ankle is fine , and the party continues on their way to Volcano Villude.

If the party decides to continue to Volcano Villude without defending the Seventh Fort, they have until they travel down into the Nest of Dragon to return to it. If skipped, returning to the Seventh Fort will show all the chests as having been looted, although the dying Head of the 10th Knighthood will still give his Wargod's Amulet when approached. After returning to Lohan following the events that take place at the Shrine of Shirley, the bodies at the Seventh Fort vanish.

Later in Disc 1, there is the option to return to Marshland whenever Albert joins the party, this results in a special dialogue where Albert talks about Sandora's occupation of Basil. This optional dialogue will disappear after the war ends.

Trivia

1. If the party defeat Feyrbrand first and then returns to the Seventh Fort, the dialogue between Lavitz and the the Head of the 10th Knighthood is slightly different. Lavitz mentions having beaten the Dragon, and apologizes for not being able to come sooner instead of promising revenge. The Knight thanks him for defeating the Dragon and gives a last God bless King Albert instead of warning them about the Dragon's poison. Notably Shana will be absent from this exchange, as after her recovery from the Dragon's poison the bodies of the knights at the Seventh Fort disappear.
