To use Dolphin:

Players are first introduced to Micaiah and the "Dawn Brigade," a group of freedom fighters struggling to liberate the kingdom of Daein from the oppressive occupation of the Begnion Empire. The narrative then shifts to Queen Elincia of Crimea, who faces a rebellion from within her own nobility, before bringing back the legendary hero Ike, who is pulled into a new, continent-spanning conflict. Finally, all paths converge in a final, epic confrontation that reveals the true nature of the continent’s ancient gods and the dark history of the "Fire Emblem" itself. This multi-perspective structure is a standout feature, giving players a holistic view of the conflict, though some reviewers found the frequent switching made the story feel disjointed at times.
