Fear Mountain Shrine

The Fear Mountain Shrine (Japanese: 恐山のほこら Fear Mountain Shrine) is a temple and dungeon located in Rigel's Fear Mountain range. It appears in Fire Emblem Gaiden and is first accessed during Act 4: Land of Sorrow.

History

As with Gaiden in general, there is little explicit clarification on the exact purpose of the Fear Mountain Shrine. It is possibly related to the worship of Duma in some way, as it is crawling with cantors, arcanists, witches, and monsters. However, the presence of two Mila Shrine within the temple may imply otherwise.
