Fortune's Weave Routes Guide: Order and Switching

Compare Fortune's Weave route order, path switching, four protagonist paths, Dagsion preparation, and route-specific mechanics.

Fortune's Weave routes are four parallel protagonist paths for Cai, Dietrich, Theodora, and Leda, and Nintendo says players can change protagonists freely rather than lock into one irreversible route choice. This hub explains the confirmed route structure and links to focused pages without inventing chapter order, boss names, map layouts, or endings.

Route structure at a glance

Nintendo's developer interview describes the four protagonist paths as parallel stories. Players may focus on one protagonist or progress multiple paths in parallel, and the interview says there is no irreversible route choice in the described route-selection system.

RouteConfirmed route activityRoute page
CaiCatch and care for rideable animals, farm, and trade harvests.Cai route
DietrichAcquire and strengthen Combat Arts by defeating enemies.Dietrich route
TheodoraRecruit soldiers in settlements and deploy battalions.Theodora route
LedaPerform in taverns for rewards or information about secret locations.Leda route

The official sources do not publish a required first route, best route order, complete chapter list, route-exclusive roster, or ending guide.

A practical route order

There is no confirmed mandatory first route. For players deciding what to do next, use the current preparation need to choose a path:

If the immediate goal is...Start by checking...
Farming, animals, trade, or food leadsCai's route and the resources tracker.
Combat Art acquisition or upgradesDietrich's route and the Combat Arts guide.
Soldiers, settlements, or battalion preparationTheodora's route.
Tavern rewards or secret-location cluesLeda's route and the world-map guide.
A general story or recruitment stepDagsion, then the world map, then the path with the newest prompt.

Before switching, note the active route, current chapter, and open objectives. Nintendo says the game preserves chapter-start data for each protagonist within a single save file; this is not an instruction to create a separate manual save slot. The route choices above are planning suggestions, not a required chapter-by-chapter sequence.

Dagsion and shared progression

Dagsion is the shared preparation base named in official sources. Players can use facilities for equipment, boons or blessings, training, and certification as the journey progresses. Allies can also be recruited there through scouting, including mercenary-like characters and certain members of other protagonist clans.

The route system also supports replay and continuity. Nintendo's interview says chapter-start save data exists for each main protagonist, unlocked map locations can carry across paths after a point, and character data can merge across repeated paths or repeated recruitment later. Between matches, the official tips identify the Pale Raven's perch in Dagsion as the place to switch storylines.

For practical planning, pair this route hub with the path switching guide, recruitment guide, resources, gifts, and food guide, early-game walkthrough, and dungeon and Clash guide. For side-content timing, use the paralogues guide.

What remains unknown

The verified public sources do not provide exact route order, chapter names, map layouts, boss identities, hidden item locations, secret-location lists, route-exclusive endings, or route-specific recruitment triggers. Pages in this section therefore describe confirmed systems and preparation logic, not a finished story walkthrough.

If future in-game testing adds those details, it should be dated, attributed, and clearly separated from Nintendo's official public statements.
