Border Mulan as it appears during Chapter One.
Border Mulan (国境ミュラン, Kokkyō myuran), or simply Mulan, is a location from Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. It is a castle in Frelia which sits on the border with Renais. In pursuit of Princess Eirika of Renais, Grado attacks Border Mulan during Chapter 1. Here, Franz and Gilliam help Eirika and Seth retake the castle from Breguet and his soldiers.
Mulan sits directly south of the Tower of Valni. It is north of the mountain range which forms a natural barrier between Frelia and Renais. The world map shows a river following the border as well, flowing into a large lake northeast of the castle. Being so close to the mountains, the area has many hills. Situated on the main road heading east from Castle Frelia, Mulan is a strategically important castle to the kingdom, defended by Princess Tana herself at the start of the war. Outside the castle gate, there are houses which indicate the security of the area during peacetime.
Story[]
Fleeing from Grado's forces, Eirika and Seth escape from Castle Renais to the Frelian border. Yet when they arrive, they see Grado soldiers have already overtaken Mulan. Determined to help, Eirika decides to protect the houses outside the castle from Breguet and his men.
Franz finds Sir Gilliam, a knight of Frelia's Eastern Watch, though the invasion at Mulan stops them from coming to Renais's aid. Though Franz worries all hope is lost, Gilliam assures him that Tana is being used as a bargaining tool, giving them time to rescue her.
The four of them defeat Breguet, freeing Mulan and Tana from Grado's grip. Tana leads Eirika to Castle Frelia, hoping her father, King Hayden, can help her rescue her brother.
Etymology[]
The Chinese word 木兰 mùlán refers to a magnolia. 花木蘭 Hua Mulan is the name of a Chinese folk heroine who disguises herself as a man to take her father's place as a soldier in the emperor's conscripted army.
