“The Sacred Stone of Renais has been broken. Constant strife with dark creatures has made the group's progress near impossible. Princess L’Arachel of Rausten suggests they pay a visit to Rausten Court. It is here that the final Sacred Stone is sealed away. L’Arachel rides cheerfully toward her homeland with the company in tow.”
—Opening Narration
Last Hope is Chapter 19 of Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. You must protect Mansel for 13 turns or defeat Riev, whichever comes first. There is Fog of War in this chapter. You will receive 10000 gold at the end of the chapter, along with the Sacred Twins Ivaldi and Latona. This is the last chapter in which you will fight soldiers from Grado.

Strategy
Edit
As holding off for 13 turns seems too costly as there are a large number of reinforcements that come in every turn, some players may prefer rushing in a unit (usually a Swordmaster or Berserker) to Riev as fast as they can. Send your Thief or Rogue toward one of the two three chest locations to grab some extra loot. After ending your turn, the AI will attack the two Knights closest to Riev's position. This should be easy as the Mercenaries are unable to kill the Knights (unless they hit a Critical), and the Druids will finish them off.
If you are planning to rush Riev, it will take around three to five turns to get to him. Bring one or two powerful units (at least level 17+), with a Killer weapon. Once Riev orders a retreat (in which you lower all his health to 0), you get an Aura, and the mission ends quickly.
If you cannot rush him, have your core units block the path to Mansel. This should be easy as the enemy is not as strong as your units, though you should always watch for the ranged units. This will be a little bit harder as your blockers will take the brunt of attacks, so always have some healers (a Bishop or Summoner will work well) aganist them. Hold them off for 13 turns and you will beat the mission.
