Tower of Valni

The Tower of Valni is a location in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, and formerly housed the Sacred Stone of Frelia until its destruction by Caellach and Selena. The Tower has 8 floors.

From Chapter 9 onward, the Tower of Valni is a place where the player can train characters in order to make them of a higher level, as it is filled with monsters. Beating the Tower of Valni in the Creature Campaign unlocks characters that were either bosses or NPC's in the main campaign.
