Below is a walkthrough for Chapter 18: The Cold Voyage in Fire Emblem Engage!
Paralogue: The Sage Lord
Location: Bridges in a Row
Travel to the Bridges in a Row area for a dialog event leading to a battle with Leif to increase his bond. For this battle, you’ll need to fight your way to Leif on the northeastern side of the map. There are 6 ballistae scattered around the map that will impede your progress. Also, there are mages near the ballista that will break and freeze your units in place. As you get closer to Leif, he’ll have his forces start destroying the bridges to slow your movements. Leif will also start charging toward you. This can make it hard to claim all of the dropped items. Once you defeat Leif, explore the area collecting items, speaking with allies and adopting all of the animals.

| 1,000 G | Dropped by a General Fabrication |

Paralogue: The Holy Knight
Location: River of Light and Dark
Head to the River of Light and Dark to view a dialog event with Sigurd. This will lead to a battle against the hero to increase his bond with Alear. The first part of this battle has Alear and their allies fighting to take control of a drawbridge that you’ll need to lower to reach Sigurd. Once all of the enemies near the fortress have been defeated, the drawbridge will drop. This will cause around 20 enemies to emerge from the fortress near Sigurd. If you wait near the drawbridge, Sigurd will run to you (just watch out for his Emblem Skill). Once you defeat him, explore the area collecting items, speaking with allies and adopting all of the animals.
| Item | Obtained |
|---|---|
| 2,000 G | Dropped by the Sage Fabrication guarding the fortress near the drawbridge |
| 1,000 G | Dropped by a Sage Fabrication with 2 health bars on the southwest side of the map |
| 1,000 G | Dropped by a Sage Fabrication with 3 health bars on the southwest side of the map |
Skirmishes
Now might be a good time to do 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 promotion.
Route to Elusia
When you’re ready, head to the Route to Elusia to continue the story. You’ll be doing battle on a ship while being attacked from both sides. There is a cannon in the middle you can leverage to help push back the siege. On the east side of the map will be Lindon. If you speak with him using Ivy or Hortensia, he will join you. During this fight, you can also collect the below items! Defeat Abyme on the northeastern ship to win the map. You’ll then be free to speak with allies, collect items and adopt any animals. Return to the Somniel when you are finished.
| Item | Obtained |
|---|---|
| Second Seal | Looted from a chest on the east side of the map |
| Speedwing | Looted from a chest on the west side of the map / Dropped from a Theif that stole it from the chest |
Intermission: The Somniel
Back at the Somniel, stock on supplies you may need and collect any items scattered around the grounds. When you’re ready to proceed with the story, leave the Somniel.
