“With Uhai's dying words still sounding in their ears, they venture deep into the forest's heart. Lyn moves in utmost silence, cautious not to alert any hidden enemy. However, following on her path, a new Black Fang shadow appears.”
—Opening Narration

Imprisoner of Magic is Chapter 18x (19x, seemingly typoed Prisoner of Magic in Hector's Story) of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. The boss of this chapter is the powerful sage, Aion, who is guarding the entrance to the Dragon's Gate. Although Aion is a very powerful sage, his power is soon negated by the presence of Kishuna, the Magic Seal.

This chapter is obtained by beating The Dread Isle within 15 turns. It is the first of three "Kishuna chapters" in which Kishuna appears (one of which, The Value of Life, only appears in Hector's Story); if all three of the Kishuna chapters (Imprisoner of Magic, Genesis, and The Value of Life) and, in addition, A Glimpse in Time are beaten, Nergal's death quote is expanded, a line from Nils is added between Nergal's defeat and the arrival of the Fire Dragon, and a new CG is used for the FIN picture at the end of the game.

To obtain the side quest of this side quest (i.e. Chapter 19xx), you must start Lyn's story with Nils Level 7 or greater until you beat her final chapter then continue to Hector's Story, choose 'yes' when the game ask you to save progress, and have defeated Kishuna in this level.

Unfortunately, if you start Hector's story without beating Lyn's story with level 7 Nils "A Glimpse in Time" will not happen.

In Hector's Story, he will also disappear after 15 turns. However, in Hector's Hard Mode, Kishuna disappears after 12 turns, if Aion has not been defeated or until the turn after he is attacked. This can be quite difficult, as Kishuna will disappear from the map the turn after you first attack him and has high HP and evasion and both sides will not be able to use magic in his circle.
