Neclord travelled to Warriors' Village in order to take [[Tengaar]], the daughter of [[Zorak]], the chief of Warriors' Village.

I suppose that is about the best that humans can do." - Neclord ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. They were quickly joined by [[Toran Liberation Army]] members [[Viktor]] and [[Tir McDohl]], but Neclord was easily able to defeat them as Viktor and Tir were unable to do any damage. Neclord noted he had become quite famous and that his was a tough life and repeated his request to take Tengaar<ref>"Goodness, how famous I've become. It's a tough life. Well, are you satisfied now? Please give me your daughter. She will have the honor of becoming my 70th bride." - Neclord ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Neclord, in order to prevent further harm to her loved ones, agreed to go with Neclord, who claimed he liked Tengaar's style<ref>"I like your style, young lady." - Neclord ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

You have my word." - Neclord ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>
Neclord travelled to [[Warriors' Village]] in order to take [[Tengaar]] as one of his brides. Though the villagers, as well as [[Tir McDohl]] and [[Viktor]] of the [[Toran Liberation Army]], attempted to prevent Neclord from taking her, they were unable to do so. Tengaar agreed to go with Neclord in order to prevent further harm.


Soon after, Neclord sent wedding invitations to Warriors' Village<ref>"That's wonderful. We were just about to depart for Neclord's Castle. Look what that demon sent us." - Zorak<br>"Wedding... Invitation?? Whose?" - Viktor ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. The warriors of the village, along with members of the Toran Liberation Army, headed for Neclord's castle. There, Neclord greeted the gathered crowd, noting how rude it was for them to bring so many weapons to his wedding<ref>"My my, how rude of you to show up at a wedding with all those weapons." - Neclord ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. When Zorak demanded Neclord return his daughter, Neclord refused, but, recognizing Tir McDohl, invited Tir and his party to be his most welcome guests, warning them that should they not reach the top of Neclord's castle by sunset, Tengaar would be his forever<ref>"I'm afraid not. She's my beloved bride. When the sun sets, our wedding begins. Tir, you're the leader of the Liberation Army, correct? I'd like you to be my most honored guest tonight. If you don't make it to the top of the castle by sunset, Tengaar will be mine forever. Understood? This gate will not admit the uninvited." - Neclord ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.
