Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave Paralogues Guide

What are Paralogues in Fortune’s Weave

Paralogues are optional battles in Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave that supplement the main Heroic Games narrative. Unlike standard matches, Paralogues often present complex objectives, limited-time access windows, and unique rewards that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Each Paralogue is tied to a specific character, and completing them can affect character availability in later parts of the game.

Nine Paralogues exist in Part I of the game, with none appearing in Part II or Part III. This makes early route planning critical—missing a Paralogue window on one path does not mean it is lost forever, since parallel play via Pale Raven’s Perch lets you return to earlier chapters on a different Hero.

Route Availability Overview

Not every Paralogue is accessible on every route. The following table shows which Paralogues are available on each of the four Hero paths:

Paralogue	Cai	Dietrich	Theodora	Leda
Leda’s Paralogue	N/A	Available	Available	N/A
Theodora’s Paralogue	N/A	Available	N/A	N/A
Bertrand’s Paralogue	Available	Available	Available	N/A
Talimun’s Paralogue	Available	Available	Available	N/A
Anna’s Paralogue	Available	Available	Available	N/A
Anatolia’s Paralogue	N/A	Available	N/A	Available
Cai’s Paralogue	N/A	Available	Available	Available
Dietrich’s Paralogue	N/A	N/A	Available	Available
Orchel’s Paralogue	Available	Available	Available	Available

Dietrich has access to the most Paralogues—eight of nine—while Cai and Leda each have access to only four. Theodora’s unique position as a Flame Lord who only appears as a full Hero on her own route means her Paralogue is accessible only through Dietrich’s path.

• Reward: Healing Staff, 20,000G, 150R
• Strategy: Largest Paralogue map. Split team to hit two switches simultaneously to damage the boss and surrounding enemies. Pegasus Knights reinforce the east side—do not leave anyone vulnerable behind.

Impact on Part III

Paralogue completion may affect character availability in Part III of the game. If you complete a Flame Lord’s Paralogue but do NOT complete their Part I Path, that character will be available in Part III in a “limited” capacity—as a battle unit only, without story access or Support conversations.

For example, completing Dietrich’s Path while also completing Theodora’s Paralogue, but never finishing Theodora’s own path, means Theodora appears in Part III limited mode. If you complete all four Part I paths, no characters are restricted.

Strategic Considerations

Given the limited windows and route-specific availability, consider these approaches:

1. Dietrich first — His access to eight of nine Paralogues makes him ideal for collecting rewards and recruiting characters early.
2. Track deadlines carefully — Bertrand’s Paralogue on Dietrich’s route is available for only one day (9/17).
3. Plan recruitment around Paralogues — Some characters like Diego require completing Orchel’s Paralogue before recruitment.
4. Use parallel play — Pale Raven’s Perch lets you return to earlier dates on different Heroes to catch missed Paralogues.
