Line 62:

Jowy entered the [[Highland Army]]'s youth division, the [[Unicorn Brigade]], along with his friend and was eventually assigned to [[Tenzan Pass]] following the truce between [[Highland Kingdom|Highland]] and [[City-State of Jowston|Jowston]]. Following the massacre of the Unicorn Brigade by [[Luca Blight]], Jowy washed up in Jowston and was rescued in [[Toto Village]] by [[Joanna]], [[Marx]] and [[Pilika]]. He then went to rescue his friend who was being held by [[Viktor]] and [[Flik]] but ended up being captured as well.

Led away by Highland soldiers, Jowy would cry out to see his mother, only to be rebuffed by Marcel and Marco. This would be the last time Jowy would see his family. He and the hero would then be marched through Kyaro as captured spies. Passing through, the carriage of Princess Jillia stopped the procession and interrogated the two as to their motives. Jowy would protest their innocence during this first meeting between the two.

Jowy would be sentenced alongside his friend to be executed as spies. Luckily, they, along with Nanami and [[Mukumuku]] were rescued by Viktor and Flik. Jowy ended up working alongside Viktor's mercenary force and aided Jowston in their struggle against Highland. Following the fall of Viktor's [[Mercenary Fortress]], Jowy received the [[Black Sword Rune]], half of the [[Rune of Beginning]], in the ruins of Toto, while his friend gained the [[Bright Shield Rune]].

Eventually pushed back beyond its pre-war borders, the Highland Army made one final stand at [[L'Renouille]] before being defeated. As the end of the war loomed, Jowy would meet one final time with Jillia and Pilika. Securing the safety of Jillia and Pilika by making a residence for them in [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonia]], Jowy spent some final tender moments with them both, before escaping to Tenzan Pass where he awaited his friend and prepared to fight him in one final battle.

At this stage, Jowy was prepared to die in order to enhance the hero's legend and increase the chances for a lasting peace. Fortuitously, [[Leknaat]] appeared and used the power of the [[108 Stars]] to heal Jowy's body~~. Finally, the long conflict between the two friends had come to a resolution~~.

The two returned to Kyaro where they were reunited with Nanami, who both Jowy and his friend thought had perished at [[Rockaxe Castle]]. With the three best friends reunited at last, the group set off on a journey to see the world.

==Trivia==

*In Greek mythology, the "Atreides" are the descendants of ~~Atree "Fearless"~~. The name Atreides ~~designated thus~~ Menelas and Agamemnon.

*In Greek mythology, the "Atreides" are the descendants of the mythological Greek king Atreus. The name Atreides referred to his sons, Menelas and Agamemnon and their descendants in turn.

*Jowy wields a Star Staff during his tenure in your group. The second and third levels of his weapon, the Heaven Staff and Heavenly Star Staff, can only be obtained through some sort of game-hack. Jowy departs long before his weapon can be modified that high, and when he makes one more return appearance later in the game, he is using an unnamed sword.

*Jowy's name is misspelled as "Joei" at some point in conversations by both Pilika and Nanami later in the game.
