Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow. (Skip section)

Deist is known as the Kingdom of Dragoons. According to the Mysidia Library, a man named Haan visited the island, and over a period of thirty years he cultivated a bond with the Wyverns, and became the first Dragoon. Along with their Wyverns, the Dragoons were a formidable force.

The Empire, fearing the Dragoons, poisoned the water supply of Deist. The Wyverns died, and without them, the Dragoons could not resist the Empire's army, leaving Ricard as the sole remaining Dragoon, who returned to find only Elina and her son, Kain, had survived. The Emperor would later face his first death at the hands of Ricard, who alongside the Wild Rose Rebellion infiltrated his Cyclone fortress via a wyvern. The sword and symbol of the Dragoons is known as the Excalibur and is given to Firion by Elina after she hears of Ricard's death. Afterward she takes her son, Kain, and travels to places unknown.
