Guide to Chapter 17: Whereabouts Unknown in Fire Emblem. Learn how to recruit Raven and Lucius, defeat Bernard, and seize the throne with expert tips.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start with your main army. Your first priority is to deal with the soldiers who need rescuing. Oswin is your go-to for heading west to meet the incoming reinforcements.
  2. 2
    Send your other units north. Matthew should head west to intercept enemies and snag a chest. Florina can escort Matthew, making his transport north much quicker later on.
  3. 3
    Raven will join you this chapter, but recruiting him requires Priscilla to reach him. Be mindful that archers will be in the way, potentially complicating Priscilla's approach. It's a good idea to have at least one cavalier charge through the enemy ranks.
  4. 4
    A thief is lurking in the northern room, aiming to steal valuable items, especially the Knight Crest. Your cavalier should be able to handle this pesky thief.
  5. 5
    Keep pushing north. Once Raven is recruited, have him head east to recruit Lucius. Lucius will be instrumental in dealing with the shamans that appear in the central room.
  6. 6
    After Matthew secures the two chests in the southern area, use Florina to quickly transport him up to the northern room.
  7. 7
    The cavalier you sent ahead should have dealt with the thief. Focus on using your other lords; Hector is particularly effective at smashing through knights.
  8. 8
    Oswin can manage the reinforcements pouring in from the southwest. Hector can also take down the boss, Bernard, quite easily with his Iron Axe. If Bernard proves to be a tough nut to crack, the Wolf Beil is your best bet.
  9. 9
    Once Bernard is defeated, seize the throne to complete the chapter.
