Rainbow Sage (Japanese:虹の賢者Rainbow Sage) is the fifteenth chapter of theRevelation campaign ofFire Emblem Fates. In this chapter,Corrin arrives inNotre Sagesse, and must overcome a trial to receive an audience withRainbow Sage.

Plot

Main article:Rainbow Sage (Revelation chapter)/Script

Corrin and their group arrive in Notre Sagesse, and they immediately begin asking the locals about the whereabouts of the Rainbow Sage. The old man they are speaking to recognizes them sword as theYato, and questions why they are seeking out the Rainbow Sage in the first place. The old man directs Corrin to the Sevenfold Sanctuary to find the Sage, warning them not to die on their way up the mountain. The group begins to tire on their way up the mountain, until they finally reach their destination. Corrin warns the group that actually meeting the Sage will not be an easy task; Corrin's assumption is right, as they encounter illusions who challenge them on their way to the Sage.

During their trial,a Kohgan arrives at the sanctuary, seeming to seek audience with the Sage as well so that he can receive the strength to rebuild his nation. Corrin meets with him, and surmises that he is a thief looking to steal from the sanctuary. Shura denies this, stating that he wants the Sage's gift of strength to topple thedaimyo of Mokushu, as revenge for destroying his homeland. Corrin tells him that they already defeated the daimyo prior. He recognizes Corrin as the kidnapped Hoshidan prince, and agrees to help them on their quest. Amage later arrives, seeking to avoid the war. Corrin suggests giving her refuge, to which she responds to leave her alone. Corrin continues to urge her to join them, and she is eventually convinced.

After completing the illusions' trial, Corrin enters the final door, which takes them back to the house where they spoke to the old man. The old man reveals himself to be the Rainbow Sage, and Corrin tells him that they are seeking out a dragon to stop the war. The Rainbow Sage first takes the Yato and unlocks its power, transforming it into the Alpha Yato. He tells Corrin that, once the Yato meetsthefourdivineweapons, it will be completed and become theFire Emblem. The Rainbow Sage then collapses, prompting Corrin to urgeSakura andElise to heal him, which the Sage advises against, saying that his time in this world has come to an end. After mentioning "human magic" not working on him, he reveals himself to also be the dragon Corrin was searching for—one of the twelveFirst Dragons, and the creator of the Yato and the divine weapons—and that he could not die until he atoned for making them. The Sage finally passes on, telling Corrin to make their own destiny. Corrin thanks the Sage and directs the group to move out to theBottomless Canyon once and for all.

Upon returning toMy Castle, Lilith asks Corrin if she could have a moment of their time, then reveals that a familiar face has come to see him/her.Jakob/Felicia appears and states that Corrin is doing well, and that they could not rest until they found them once word reached to him/her that Corrin went missing, stating they've been traveling across dimensional barriers and states that now that they're by Corrin's side again, that they'll now fight alongside them. Jakob/Felicia will now be available to the player's army at this point.

Summary

The group begins to climb the Sevenfold Sanctuary, hoping to meet the Rainbow Sage. They find that the road up is not an easy one.
