First game

Fire Emblem Awakening

Missiletainn (Japanese: ミステルトィン Mysteltwinn) is a weapon which was introduced in Fire Emblem Awakening as a sword, and reappeared in Fire Emblem Fates as a tome. In both games it is a minor child character's personal weapon: in the former it is exclusive to Owain, and in the latter it is Ophelia's. In Owain's case, according to the villager from whom he obtained it, Missiletainn is a common sword he previously used for mundane tasks,[1] but Owain mistakenly believes it to be the Demon Sword Mystletainn of Jugdral.
