If Nasir was not recruited

TheBlack Knight, cold-blooded murderer ofIke'sfather, has disappeared within the collapsed castle. However,Nasir has been lost with him. In the end, he did not reveal the contents of his heart, but instead left another mystery with his enigmatic parting words. What was he trying to tell Ike? What did he hope to gain in this war? What was he searching for? With yet another memory to shoulder, Ike must fight on. TheCrimean army and itslaguz allies have passed the trial of Nados Castle. At last, they've arrived at their final destination: the Crimean capital. Yet the opponent that awaits them is none other thanAshnard, king ofDaein. If they lose here, all of their hardships will have been for naught. Preparations for the attack proceed with the utmost care. The final battle is approaching. An air of exaltation pervades the camp, but Ike remains focused on the road ahead, readying himself for what is to come.

If Nasir was recruited

Ike has avenged his father by defeating the Black Knight in single combat. That night, he sleeps until well past dawn. It is the first time since Greil's death that he has done so. The crimean army and its laguz allies have passed the trial of Nados Castle. At last, they've arrived at their final destination: the crimean capital. Yet the opponent that awaits them is none other than Ashnard, king of Daein. If they lose here, all of their hardships will have been for naught. Preparations for the attack proceed with the utmost care. The final battle is approaching. An air of exaltation pervades the camp, but Ike remains focused on the road ahead, readying himself for what is to come.

Strategy

This section has been marked as astub. Please help improve the page by adding information.

This is the first time that Tibarn appears in battle since Part 4 of Chapter 17. While Tibarn is strong and durable, he still has the possibility of being killed (especially from bows and Wind magic). Thus, it's important to heal Tibarn when his HP is low.
