Fort Dragonfall

I believe [Xander] was the fourth person to meet the Rainbow Sage and survive. The first was Sumeragi, the former king of Hoshido! A young King Garon also made the pilgrimage. I heard the third individual was an unknown knight no one had ever heard of before.
— Old Man

Rainbow Sage (Japanese:虹の賢者Rainbow Sage) is the nineteenth chapter of theBirthright campaign inFire Emblem Fates. In this chapter,Corrin's army arrives atNotre Sagesse and take on the challenge of the Sevenfold Sanctuary to attempt to meet theRainbow Sage, and must take on a bunch of illusions in hope of being able to matchXander in power.

Plot

Main article:Rainbow Sage (Birthright chapter)/Script

Corrin and company teleport onto the streets ofNotre Sagesse, andRyoma notes the absence ofNohrian forces. Corrin begins to ask after the Rainbow Sage; an old man advises against the task, as few have survived, though he recognizes Xander has. When pressed, the old man points them toward theSevenfold Sanctuary at the peak of Mount Sagesse. Once they reach the sanctuary, the Hoshidans prepares themselves and start the trial—a battle against a series of illusory enemies through the sanctuary.

Once the Corrin reaches the final room of the sanctuary, they prepare themselves for anything and open the door; doing so teleports the army back to the streets of Notre Sagesse, where they meet the old man again—Corrin deduces that the man is the Rainbow Sage. Corrin requests to be gifted the same strength as Xander, but the sage reveals the journey to meet him granted that strength. However, with the power ofTakumi and theFujin Yumi, the Rainbow Sage does transform theYato into the Noble Yato. The Rainbow Sage suggests the Hoshidans now return to Nohr; Corrin thanks the sage for his aid and bids him farewell.

Summary

With help from Leo, the group returns to Notre Sagesse. They undergo several challenges to meet the Rainbow Sage, who has already granted Xander his power.

Strategy

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

Before initiating this chapter, try to check at the enemy stats first. You will notice that most enemies have extremely lopsided defense and resistance; knowing this can help you finish off enemies more easier. In the left rooms, the enemies have high resistance, but nonexistent defense; the right-side rooms are the opposite. At the middle-most room a Great Master with potential high magic than strength. Surprisingly they wieldSteel Naginatas, so they may deal no damage to your units. Finally the top-most room has a paired-up Swordmaster and Berserker. The Berserker has very high attack that may kill your unit that comes contact, but he has a low amount of HP, so finishing him off should be easy.
