Can anyone explain it or know a site that has the story?(specifically the beginning) Im sorta trying to write a story about it but I cant remember what was said about the history of the dragoons and why Rah
al put Cyranuce in jail.
The DRGs were once the strongest segment of the San D'Orian army. King Ranperre often rode into battle with a group of Dragoons which is why he is referred to as the Dragon King. The title of the job quest 'The Holy Crest' refers to the crest that appears on wyverns when they are born. No pure wyverns have been born for some time which is part of the conflict behind the job flag quest.
Here is the DRG AF storyline as relayed by the folks over at GameFAQs
Dragoon-
The last and greatest knight of San d’Oria, General Epuracion,
leader of the Dragon King Raunperre’s army, originally wore the
dragoon armor. After the mysterious death of Epuracion his armor
was scattered throughout the world being auctioned off and sold
to various individuals. One such woman informs you that she has
some old armor of her fathers which she wishes to polish, and
sends you off to Altepa to get a polishing stone. Upon returning
you are rewarded with a lance, which supposedly belonged to
Epuracion himself.
Later word reaches you that the boss of the Brugaire Consortium
might have one of the armor pieces as a family heirloom. But
before you can talk to him you have to get passed his two lackeys
who happen to have lost their latest order. When you fill it for
them their boss appears to quickly scold them, but suddenly a man
runs in to tell the boss that his father died. The boss seems
slightly apathetic, but to honor his father he goes to the funeral.
He tells you that a thief sadly stole the heirloom his father had
just after the funeral. He asks you to track this person down. As
you head from the port through Northern San d’Oria the woman whom
you helped earlier stops you saying that someone ran by with some
armor and dropped a note telling you to go to the island near
Eldime Necropolis. There you retrieve the armor, and when you
return the boss agrees to let you “hold on to it” for him.
Word reaches you that other holders of the armor have been getting
robbed as well and mysterious apparitions of Epuracion have been
seen throughout the kingdom. Rahal, leader of the Royal Knights
asks you to clear up the mystery of the last Dragoon. The last
piece of the armor is hidden somewhere in Kuftal Tunnel, but when
you arrive to collect it there is a note inside challenging the
Royal Knights. It seems the ex-captain of the Royal Knights, who
was disgraced and replaced by Rahal. Apparently while always
victorious in the field, his tactics and actions caused massive
casualties on both sides. He says he will wait for you at the tomb
of the last dragoon. There, in the temple of Uggalepih you are
attacked by 2 shadows. When you defeat them a mysterious Elvaan
Dark Knight appears. The Dark Knight plans to use his newfound
necromancer powers and the helm of the last dragoon to revive his
full power and take over the world. At the moment, Epuracion
appears in full dragoon armor. Apparently Epuracion, like the
spirits in the temple has entered some ghost like state and has
wandered these halls in exile for hundreds of years. He left San
d’Oria long ago to protect it from himself, as the king feared the
power Epuracion was gaining amongst the people and soldiers.
Apparently his wyvern’s holy crest had vanished and that sign
meant that soon he would turn evil and betray his king. Killing
his wyvern with his own hands, Epuracion fled into exile,
informing his king of this sorrowful act. The king agreed, and
told the people of San d’Oria their great knight had died in
battle.
Just then Rahal appears having followed you and the knights
arrest the dark knight. Before he vanishes Epuracion embraces
your wyvern telling you that he can’t believe there still is a
pure dragon. One day this little wyvern will grow into a giant
dragon and your closest friend. Slowly he fades away, bidding
you and the wyvern goodbye.
