Rival Bands

Rival Bands (Mercenary Conflict in the Japanese version), shown under the title Law's End on the world map, is Paralogue 13 of Fire Emblem: Awakening.

Paralogue Information
In this paralogue, two forces are fighting each other: The Stonewall Knights and the Riders of Dawn. The player can choose which side to ally with. Depending on the characters choice, the opposing force will change. However the play can choose to ally with neither groups if they wish for greater after-battle rewards and the ability to visit all 4 villages during the map.

Yarne is a member of the Stonewall Knights and can be recruited if Chrom or Panne talks to him, regardless if he's an allied unit or an enemy unit.

Village Contents: Upper Left: Beast Killer (Locked if allied with Stonewall Knights) Upper Right: Dracoshield  (Locked if allied with Stonewall Knights) Lower Left: Energy Drop  (Locked if allied with Riders of Dawn) Lower Right: Hammer  (Locked if allied with Riders of Dawn)

All villages can be visited if the option to fight both groups is chosen.
