I take on a paralogue in this video, and this one takes place at Arena of the Gods, which is said to resemble an area from the World of Awakening. Arena of the Gods is a familiar location to Lucina, and she decides to test Alear and the others, and if they succeed, this will increase their bonds and unlock more of Lucina's Emblem powers.

As for the rest of the description, I recommend watching the full video before reading past this point of the description

This is the first Emblem paralogue in the game, and this was available since Chapter 12, but I decided to hold off till I had more Emblem Rings, and I decided this was the right time, as our most recently acquired Emblem was Byleth, and he can provide good support in those fights.
This paralogue is called "The Exalt", not even "Princess Exalt", as in the name of the Emblem Ring, but anyway, this is Lucina's Emblem paralogue, and it takes place at Arena of the Gods, which is based on Arena Ferox from Fire Emblem Awakening, this paralogue is based on Chapter 4 of Fire Emblem Awakening. I do like the music for this map, the Emblem paralogues play remixes of music from past Fire Emblem games, this one is Trial of Awakening, and it is a remix of Destiny (Ablaze), as well as a few other songs from Fire Emblem Awakening.
You can only deploy up to six units, and you might want to bring in a lance user to take on Lucina, to handle the Mages, you will want to bring a unit with a good Resistance stat, like Chloé or Hortensia, magic units are good against the Armored Knights on the map, and some of the opponents can drop 1000 Gold, and if you combine that with Anna's Personal Skill, specially if you make her a High Priest, you can get a good amount of Gold. This one isn't too hard if you take your time against the enemies on the map, but once you get to Lucina, some reinformcents will appear, but you don't need to fight them.
For units that have dialogue when fighting Lucina, the only unit aside from Alear that does is Alfred, and his Bond Conversation with Lucina does give a bit of backstory behind her Emblem Ring, in the opening cutscene, Alfred is showing fighting alongside Lucina, which could hint that her Emblem Ring was originally from Firene 1000 years ago, and that her Emblem Rings were one of the six that was in the Ring Vault. For some reason, Hortensia does not have dialogue when fighting Lucina, even though back then, Hortensia had Lucina's Emblem Ring back when we fought her back in Chapter 7.
Lucina is a Backup unit, and she can use Parthia and Noble Rapier, when she uses Parthia, this does leave her open to close range attacks, because if you use a sword, she cannot counterattack, but she does have a Revival Stone. She can use All For One, and if there are any allies adjacent to Lucina, they can take part in the chain attacks. For other skills, she has Dual Support, which provides her a bonus to Avoid based on the unit's support with adjacent allies, but it won't help as we are fighting Lucina and not the unit equipped with her Emblem Ring. Parallel Falchion deals bonus damage to Dragon units, you do not want Alear in her range while it is her turn.
After completing the paralogue, this will increase maximum Bond Level, previously, 10 was the maximum level, but after completing an Emblem paralogue, it will be increased to 20. For skills you get access to, at Bond Level 11, unit stays engaged for 1 additional turn, and there are some upgrades to previous skills. Bow Agility has a third upgrade at Bond Level 12, fourth at Bond Level 14, and fifth at Bond Level 17. Dual Assist is unlocked at Bond Level 13, this increases the unit's Avoid bonus based on the unit's support level with adjacent allies. Parallel Falchion is the third weapon, this is at Bond Level 15, and this has a bonus effect against Dragon units, Dexterity +4 at Bond Level 16 and Dexterity +5 at Bond Level 19 are the upgrades to Dexterity skill. The upgrade to Dual Assist is at Bond Level 18, and it has a 70% chance to trigger a chain attack if the unit is in range of a foe it can reach by moving, and at Bond Level 20, this unlocks the A Bond Conversation and Deep Synergy, which shortens the engage meter by one step.
