Fierce Winds (Japanese:猛き風Fierce Winds) is the eighth chapter of theBirthright campaign inFire Emblem Fates. In this chapter,Corrin and their army are tricked into killing members of theWind Tribe, and must battle more to prove their innocence.

Plot

Main article:Fierce Winds/Script

Corrin's army climbs the Eternal Stairway; as they climb,Kaze sense an odd presence, and is surprised whenFaceless appear before them. Kaze and Corrin fight off the Faceless, but the dead Faceless transform into Wind Tribalists.Iago appears to mock Corrin for killing innocents, then leaves. Corrin concludes that Iago made the tribalists appear as Facelesss, and is concerned that their route passes near the Wind Tribe village. Later, Corrin approaches the Wind Tribe and is met by tribalists who know of Corrin's attack, but are conflicted on their explanation. They leave the decision to their chief,Fuga, who prefers to settle the issue via battle.

Hinoka and her retainers—Azama andSetsuna—are nearby as the battle begins, but are unsure of what exactly is happening. If Corrin talks to Hinoka, they explain to her thatRyoma andTakumi have gone missing, and explains their fight with the Wind Tribe; Hinoka and her retainers join Corrin's fight. As the group nears Fuga, he commends their prowess, but ignores their attempts to reason.

Once the battle ends, Fuga explains that he was a friend ofSumeragi, that he knows of theYato and wished to test Corrin's skill with it, and that he knew Corrin's attack at the Eternal Stairway was unintentional. He offers to host Corrin's army but they refuse, citing a pressing need to find Ryoma and Takumi. As Corrin's army leaves, Fuga offers they take alongHayato so that he may learn of the outside world; they oblige.

Summary

Having defended Fort Jinya against Nohrian invaders, Corrin recruits a long-lost friend. Now, with Ryoma and Takumi in danger, the party sets out toward Izumo.

Strategy

This section details unofficial strategies that may help with completion of the chapter. This may not work for everybody.

This chapter's newcomers are Hinoka, a hard-hitting Pegasus Knight, Setsuna, a weak Archer, and Azama, a Monk with a quirky Strength-focused statline. This battle is fought in a desert, so Orochi and Subaki will serve you well. Send Corrin west to recruit Hinoka and her retainers, and send everyone else north to clear out the enemies. Be careful not to get jumped by the enemy Diviners. You can use the Dragon Veins to turn the sand into more easily traversable plains, allowing you to get the drop on the enemy. Be careful not to let the Shrine Maiden with the droppable Sun Festal use said Sun Festal to heal the enemies - you want it in pristine condition. Overall, this is a fairly straightforward chapter.
