"These were happy, prosperous farms. Good people lived here..."
― Sir Drakeson

For the Rage Knight, see Lord Highgard.

Highgard is the second region unlocked in Knighthood. It is a peninsula off the coast of the mainland, populated with various fields and farms as well as a massive walled city that gives the region its namesake. It is also home to the Sacred Portal.

Overworld Dialogue	Drakeson: ... No ... I don't believe it. This is Highgard, or what's left of it. These were happy, prosperous farm. Good people lived here... Drakeson: Only Necros the Cursed would ravage the land in this way. His undead blight must be stopped. Only a Rage Knight can do this. Drakeson: It seems the walls of Gardsheim still hold. Go there and gather supplies. You must be ready. Necros uses dark magics, and undead hordes will protect him.

Overworld Dialogue	Drakeson: This land is ruled by Lord Highgard. He was once a Rage Knight like me, and a wise and strong leader, but he has not been seen for years. Drakeson: Highgard's Crown is his capital, and it was once a vibrant city. However, the city was closed off to all comers shortly after he disappeared.

Pre-Battle Dialogue	Lord Highgard: Hmph, you're punier than I had imagined. Lord Highgard: My scouts ran to me like scared mice, wailing about a new Rage Knight. Lord Highgard: I had them executed for cowardice, and now that I see you, I wish I could execute them twice! Lord Highgard: My land is teeming with highly trained and rather dangerous militia. Lord Highgard: If they don't stop you, I'll be waiting for you at the Endless Bridge... Lord Highgard: And if you think that butchering a few beasts means you're ready to take me on, you're mistaken. Lord Highgard: Guards! Do your jobs.

Overworld Dialogue	Drakeson: Well, Lord Highgard still lives. But I no longer recognize him -- a darkness has risen in him. He now presides over a reign of cruelty. He must be stopped. Drakeson: He waits for you at Endless Bridge. Why does he wish to stop you from crossing it? He has no reason to prevent you from reaching the swamps of Mirefen. Drakeson: Whatever his reasons, you must fight your way through his militia to get there. Be careful. They are strong and disciplined.

	Pre-Battle Dialogue	Lord Highgard: Welcome to my castle. Lord Highgard: You've done well to make it this far, but your journey ends here!
	Round 1 Dialogue	Lord Highgard: Ha! You think you are someone because you've killed a few goblins and beasts? Lord Highgard: You are nothing! Lord Highgard: Let me show you what true power is!
	Round 2 Dialogue	Lord Highgard: You have more spirit than I thought. Lord Highgard: It would be a shame to waste such skill. Perhaps we can come to some kind of arrangement... No? Disappointing. Lord Highgard: Then prepare to feel my wrath!
	Post-Battle Dialogue	Lord Highgard: You have defeated me, puny one. I yield. Lord Highgard: You fight like a true Rage Knight. Lord Highgard: Heh, I was once like you, but now... Lord Highgard: I guess all power comes at a cost. Lord Highgard: A cost all those who stray from the path into the darkness will pay eventually. Lord Highgard: All I wished was to be strong - to better protect my people. Lord Highgard: My path is unchangeable now. I cannot save myself or my men. Lord Highgard: But for you, this is just the beginning... Lord Highgard: Go now and bring freedom back to this land!
Overworld Dialogue	Drakeson: Well done! The way to Mirefen is now clear. Let's go.
