Roadside Battle is the fourth chapter of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Soren returns from his studies in Melior, reporting that war has broken out between Crimea and Daein. Ike heads up an investigation party, but meets some unfortunate company on the way. This chapter features the addition of a mage, which further complicates battle strategy.

Plot

The chapter begins with the early return of Soren from a trip of study. Mist runs in to tell Ike the news, and then suggests he check the mess hall. Greil, hearing Soren’s news, orders everyone to the briefing room, interrupting Ike and Soren’s reunion. Soren shares the news – Crimea and Daein have gone to war. He pulls out his map, and everyone gathers around to hear the details.

Soren tells of how he was studying in Melior’s library when a shriek broke the air. He ran outside and saw a sea of soldiers clad in black armor – the Daein army. The destruction in the capital was swift and brutal, tactics not unheard of for the king of Daein. Lord Renning, the Crimean king’s brother, dispatched the Crimean army while the king ordered his people to flee the city, and Soren fled with them.

Titania expresses her feelings of obligation to her motherland, suggesting that the mercenaries assist the Crimean army, while Soren, analytic as usual, sees no purpose in aiding the doomed army. Titania and Soren continue arguing about the chances of Crimea’s victory, but their arguments are dismissed by Greil, who chooses to send a scouting party toward Melior headed by Ike, with Titania as an advisor. Shinon immediately displays his objections to the idea, but Greil dismisses those too, countering Shinon by assigning him to work in the scouting party under Ike. Rhys, Gatrie and Soren are also assigned to the party.

On the road, Rhys comforts Ike, telling him to use this a learning experience for when he succeeds his father as commander. The party notices an abundance of Daein corpses littering the highway, and Soren predicts that the Crimean Imperial Guard had passed through, taking with them a member of the royal family. The party is then found by a group of Daein soldiers, led by Maijin, who, without conversing with the mercenaries, quickly orders his soldiers to attack. Ike orders his mercenaries to prepare for battle, and quickly forms a strategy for the incoming skirmish.

After the battle, Gatrie catches Shinon stealing some gear from one of the now-deceased Daein soldiers. Ike and Soren yell at him for his actions, and Titania settles the bickering. Before the party leaves, Rhys notices something moving in the brush. Upon further inspection, they find a woman whom Soren wants to leave there. Ike ignores this comment, and, with the help of Rhys, carries the fainted woman back to the mercenary fort.
