| abstract | - Canto (再移動 Sai idō, lit. Re-Move) is a recurring skill in the Fire Emblem franchise. It grants mounted units the ability to use up the rest of their movement after performing certain actions. Repeated Movement is first introduced in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War as a hidden skill held by every mounted class. This skill allows characters to use up their remaining movement tiles after performing particular actions on the battlefield. The Knight Ring grants said skill to unmounted units, and can be obtained by keeping Lachesis' bodyguards alive at the end of Chapter 2. Repeated Movement remains unchanged in Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, and works rather well with the newly-introduced Rescue mechanic. Rescue Chains, which basically comprise of utilizing the Rescue command with mounted units, is essential to attaining high rankings in the game. In the GBA versions of the Fire Emblem franchise, Repeated Movement does not work after a mounted unit has made an attack or used a Staff. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance sees the return of the Repeated Movement skill, where mounted units are, like their older predecessors, able to use up any leftover movement tiles. However, the skill bearing the name 'Canto' is a skill only usable by Reyson, and grants him the ability to sing Galdr. For obvious reasons, Canto is impossible to unequip from Reyson. In Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Canto becomes an actual skill, and is usable by all flying units, including Hawk tribe laguz and mounted units.
