Skirmishes
Now might be a good time to engage in a couple of skirmishes, if you wish. You can use them to level up units you usually don’t use or get others closer to classing up.
Fire Emblem Engage Chapter 9 Fight – Fort on the Border
When you’re ready to advance the story, head to the Fort on the Border for a dialogue event that leads to a battle. You’ll need to defeat Ivy again, but this time during a snowstorm. When the fight starts, both retainers will split from Ivy, heading for two forts in the center of the map, where they will hold their positions until defeated. Also, near where your units start in the center of the map is an allied unit named Jade. Speak with her using Diamant to gain her as an ally. You’re now free to defeat Ivy! Please note that you can obtain the following items during the fight!
| Item | Obtained |
|---|---|
| Elsurge | Dropped from an enemy mage on the northern side |
| Spirit Dust | Dropped by an enemy on the north side |
| Steel-Hand Art | Dropped from the Martial Monk guarding Ivy |
After the battle, explore the area once the cutscene is over, collecting items and adopting pets.
Intermission: The Somniel
When you’re done exploring, exit the area and stop in at the Somniel. Stock up on supplies, speak to new allies, and complete any support/bonding events you may have. When you’re ready to proceed with the story, leave the Somniel.
