In Normal mode you will be forced to visit the lower village to recruit Wil, an archer. If you're playing on Hard mode, visit the village anyway. After that, use Kent and Sain to defeat the single archer near you. Remember to send Florina to the north village to receive 2000 gold, but be careful! In this mission there are quite a few axemen and two archers. At her low level, Florina can be killed very easily.


On your next turn use either Kent or Sain to stand in the forest at the edge of the wall, and slowly wear down the enemies as they come to you. This shouldn't be too difficult.
== Red Villages ==
If you are playing this chapter in Normal mode, you will be forced to visit the two red-roofed villages on this map. The lower one allows you to recruit Wil, an Archer, and the upper one gives you 2,000 gold.

== Armory ==
Buy an Iron lance for Florina from the armory. This will be needed for the next mission, but again, be aware that it will drop her speed by a lot, making it easier for enemies to hit her. If you're playing on Hard Mode, make sure to buy a spare Iron sword. Sain doesn't start with one, so another is useful.

All weapons have a set number of uses before they break. It is always useful to have a backup weapon in case this happens, so that one of your units is not a sitting duck. The armory here allows you to purchase new weapons for your units, so make use of it and buy an Iron Lance for Florina. Save the rest of your money for the future, though.
The boss doesn't move, so you can weaken him with Wil, and then kill him with whomever you want to give the exp to.

== Normal Mode ==
[[File:FE Migal Battle.png|thumb|Fighting Migal]]
In Normal Mode you will be forced to visit the lower village to recruit Wil, an archer. After that, send Kent and Sain to defeat the single archer near you. The next turn, have Florina fly to the north village to receive 2,000 gold.
 
Then, send a unit of your choice (Kent, Sain, or Lyn) to the forest and have them wait there to draw in attackers. Be sure that they are equipped with Iron Swords before you end their turn. Then, move Wil behind that unit so that he can attack from afar. Once the enemies rushing your unit have been killed, send someone to the Armory to purchase an Iron Lance for Florina. If you have any weapons that have 15 or fewer uses left, consider purchasing a replacement for that weapon as well.
 
The boss, Migal, doesn't move, so you can weaken him with Wil, and then kill him with a lower level unit to help them level up (such as Florina, provided that a single hit from the Slim Lance is enough to kill him).
 
== <span style="color: red">Hard Mode</span> ==
In Hard Mode, make visiting the two villages your first priority. Then, dispatch the Archer with Kent and Sain. Florina should be able to take care of the Mercenary on her own, but if her HP is getting low, have her retreat to safety. Follow the same strategy from Normal Mode now, with positioning a Sword-wielding unit on the forest and Wil behind him or her. Once those units are cleared, purchase an Iron Lance for Florina and an Iron Sword for Sain. If any other weapons are running low, consider purchasing a replacement as well (you'll want to save Lyn's Mani Katti for the later chapters, so another Iron Sword might be a good buy for her).
 
The boss still doesn't move in Hard Mode, so defeat him however you think fit. The safest strategy is to weaken him from afar with Wil, and then close in with a unit that can kill him in one or two hits.
