West of Ylisstol

West of Ylissitol is a location from Fire Emblem: Awakening located in Ylisse. It was where the Shepherds (Chrom, Lissa, and Frederick) and the Avatar first encounter the Risen, whom appear through a hole in the sky. The Shepherds take up arms against the risen, led by Risen Chief during the Chapter 1. Virion and Sully are recruited on this map. Woods and Forts are first featured on this map. Woods reduce ground units movement but have a defense boost, where Forts also penalize movement but have greater a defense boost and but also restore some Hit points if a unit begins a Player Phase here. During skirmishes, eight units are allowed to be deployed against risen level 6 and 11.
