'''Ninis's Grace''' (Japanese: {{hl|ニニスの守護|Ninisu no shugo}} ''Ninis's Protection'') is a [[dance]] item which was introduced in and, in legitimate gameplay, is exclusive to {{FE7}}.

Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade

Ninis's Grace (Japanese: ニニスの守護 Ninis's Protection) is a dance item which was introduced in and, in legitimate gameplay, is exclusive to Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. When used by Nils or Ninian, it allows them to conduct a performance which provides a temporary boost to the defensive prowess of their allies. In-universe, the ring is a treasured possession of Ninian's, and recovering it is the purpose of the plot of Chapter 7x.

History

Ninis's Grace was a ring which was once blessed by Ninis, a spirit of ice.[1] It was one of Ninian's most treasured possessions and a keepsake of her late mother, Aenir.[2] After their first escape from capture by the Black Fang, Ninian and Nils noticed the ring was missing, stolen by the Fang.

Lyn may decide to invade the nearby Fang stronghold to retrieve Ninis's Grace from Beyard, successfully returning it to Ninian, who a year later uses its abilities to assist Eliwood. Alternatively, Lyn may not retrieve Ninis's Grace during Lyn's tale; Ninian will still regain it at some point before she and Nils join Eliwood's party, presumably while both it and they are being held by the Black Fang.
