'''Dara''' (Japanese: {{hl|ダラ|Dara}} ''Dara'') is the matron of [[Caer Pelyn]]<ref>{{cite|We are in your debt, Matron.|[[Innes]]|The Sacred Stones}}</ref> and the grandmother of [[Saleh]]. She is an elderly and wise woman, being over 100 years old.

=={{FE8}}==
===Role===
Dara appears briefly in [[Village of Silence|Eirika route Chapter&nbsp;12]], after [[Eirika]] and her allies clear the area of [[monster]]s. Dara gives Eirika's party refuge for the night. She informs Eirika of the nature of the "[[Myrrh|Great Dragon]]" and the dragon's relation to the original conflict with the [[Fomortiis|demon king]], seemingly using the term in place of '[[manakete]]' which is curiously considered offensive.<ref>{{cite|Manakete?!? How dare you speak so of the Great Dragon!|Dara, to [[Eirika]]|The Sacred Stones}}</ref> Specifically, she clarifies that humanity could have never won out against the demon king without the aid of the dragonkin.

===Starting stats and growth rates===
Dara does have some [[Unused content in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones|unused]] data that gives her a class. Her class is [[druid]], though, curiously, it is the male variant of the druid class.<ref>{{Cite web| quote=Dara, Saleh's grandmother, has stats as a (male...) Druid and a rather nifty profile description. | author=VincentASM | published=? | retrieved=April 27th, 2015 | url=http://serenesforest.net/general/unused-content/ | title=Unused Content | site=Serenesforest.net | type=webpage }}</ref> Curiously, in-battle animations for the female druid do exist unused in {{title|The Sacred Stones}}. She does have custom growth rates, but she doesn't have any personal base stats, so she uses the male Druid class [[Druid#Base stats|base stats]].
