The Doting Sister

The Radiant Strategist is the fourth divine paralogue in Fire Emblem Engage, unlocked upon the completion of The Ancestor. As a divine 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 awakens Emblem Soren from his bracelet in hopes of having him join their team. Soren, however, is not interested in joining but at Alear's insistence, Soren asks at the very least to test their strength. Alear accepts Soren's challenge and so a battle begins in a place familiar to the emblem.
