Profile
Known as the Great Dragon, Morva was the leader of the Manakete tribe in the Darkling Woods, as well as an uncredited leader of the Five Heroes who defeated the Demon King. He was also the foster father to Myrrh, and watched over the Demon King's body in Darkling Woods. Despite his isolation in woods, Morva is said to have dedicated his life to protecting humans, and seems to watch over Caer Pelyn.
Morva appears to Lyon when the latter tries to gain entry to the Black Temple. In Eirika's route he confronts the fully possessed Lyon, vowing to kill him, while in Ephraim's route he tries to dissuade Lyon, before realizing that he was being manipulated by the Demon King from within. He is then killed and turned into a Draco Zombie by Lyon and left under Riev's control. Simultaneously Myrrh gets a sudden feeling of sadness, feeling her father's death.
If Myrrh and Morva fight, they share a very short conversation where she apologizes before finishing him.

Meet Some of the Heroes
| Darkling Warden Morva | |||
|---|---|---|---|
|
Morva is the leader of the manaketes who dwell in Darkling Woods, of Magvel. Not only that, he also fought alongside humans to defeat the Demon King long ago! | ||
|
Many of Morva's fellow manaketes fell in the battle against the Demon King, so he took Myrrh as his foster daughter, and together they went to live in Darkling Woods. | ||
|
For the next eight hundred years, Morva stayed in the woods, where he protected people from the monsters that appeared there. But one day, he sensed that the Demon King had returned. | ||
|
Myrrh left Darkling Woods to follow the Demon King's trail, but Morva remained, to prepare the defense against the Demon King's return in that place where his underlings still remained. | ||
