Micaiah

The Dawn Maiden (Japanese: 暁の巫女 Priestess of Dawn) is the eleventh paralogue chapter of Fire Emblem Engage, unlocked upon the completion of Chapter 19. As a paralogue chapter, its events are not integral to the game's main storyline and can be done at the player's leisure. In this chapter, Alear takes on a challenge from Emblem Micaiah in a place familiar to her in order to deepen their bonds.

Plot

Main article: The Dawn Maiden/Script

In a snowy fortress in Elusia, Micaiah is reminded of Castle Nox from her homeworld. She tells Alear that it was there that she fought against Ike in an attempt to defend her people from a blood pact; a curse that she sacrificed everything to undo. Alear understands why they were brought here, and challenges Micaiah to her trial, which will strengthen their bonds.

Alear manages to defeat Micaiah, who commends them on passing her trial. Alear then remarks that they had hoped to gain her future-telling ability, which Micaiah responds by saying that they are already building it themself. Alear swears to not disappoint her, and the two head off.

This paralogue is extremely simple, easily done even on maddening with just Alear. Simply have Alear run out with Lyn to Astra Storm Micaiah, and retreat to the defend point. With Canter, Alear can always go back onto the defend tile, allowing for a very simple kill. Yout other units can simply run in to body-block Micaiah, or kill her quickly. Finishing this map quickly is ideal, and very doable.
