From there, you will need to make your way to Ul'dah if it was not your starting city.

Fire Emblem Engage Nil

Nintendo recently introduced twin siblings Nil and Nel, two new main characters in the upcoming Fell Xenologue DLC story in Fire Emblem Engage. Nil is Nel's twin younger brother. When compared to his outstanding sister, Nil feels a sense of inferiority due to his perceived lack of strength.

Nil's starting class is Fell Child, same as his sister Nel. However, unlike her, Nil cannot transform into a dragon. While Nel might not be the most adept combatant, he wields axes in the battlefield for the sake of achieving peace. Nil wields the mysterious Revanche axe in footage below, which Alear can obtain from the Ancient Well on the Somniel in the main story of Fire Emblem Engage.
