Meanwhile, in Archanea's Mamorthod Desert, there was a city known as Thabes. Once a golden city of knowledge, Duma grew fearful of the humas' power in it, and destroyed it after a three day war, resulting in his and his sister Mila's exile from Archanea into Valentia. Underneath the city during its glorious days was a Labyrinth, and lurking in it was a mad alchemist named Forneus, who sought to create the perfect life form and a way to bring the dead back to life. Using materials that include the blood of the Divine Dragon, Forneus managed to create a life form on the size of a fetus. It grew into a peculiar creature, having six eyes. As the creature matured, Forneus began to see through its mind and saw only hateful and destructive impulses. Eventually, Forneus decided that the creature could not be controlled and must be destroyed, but this creature, only dubbed as "the Creation", proved to be too powerful, and Forneus was slain.\\\
Word of the Thabes Labyrinth soon reached the ears of both Alm and Celica. Gathering their most able men, they traveled to the Labyrinth, where they come across writings from the Thabean Senate, who had sealed the Labyrinth after hearing word of Forneus' activities, as well as writings of Forneus himself. Inside, they witnessed the might of the Creation, as well as the other results of Forneus' experiments: reanimated beings that had risen from the grave. Combining their strengths, Alm and Celica seemingly defeated the Creation and the zombies. However, they noted that the Creation's malevolent presence, filled with dread, continued to linger within the place, which would never fade away. For the moment, Alm and Celica stopped that threat and resumed their lives, but the Creation would return in a time far in the future.\\\
Years after the formation of Ylisse, the Creation would return, in the form of a terrifying dragon, now dubbing itself Grima, the Fell Dragon. The Divine Dragon Naga, however, was still around. With the help of the First Exalt of Ylisse, she fought against Grima and put it in a long slumber. However, before his slumber, Grima has attracted a cult of worshippers, calling themselves "the Grimleal", which formed the theocracy of Plegia, becoming rivals with the Naga-worshipping Ylisse as they worked for the return of Grima.

Upon arrival in Carrion Isle, Chrom, Robin, and Frederick are greeted by Aversa, who had been sent away by Gangrel prior to his defeat, and now serves the new king: Validar, a fellow Grimleal. The new king arrives to greet his guests, but to Chrom and Robin's surprise, he looks just like the leader of the assassins who attacked Emmeryn! Validar himself denies ever meeting them, but they are not fully convinced, though they decide to keep things to themselves. The terms are dealt out: Plegia has no soldiers to offer (Validar claiming that the Plegian army is still weakened after the war against Ylisse), but they agree to provide a thousand ships (consisting of 800 warships and 200 transports), along with full funding of the campaign; the terms are accepted. Before departing, however, Aversa introduces them to Plegia's new hierophant: a man who shares Robin's appearance and name. But with no time to waste, the Plegians depart before he or Chrom can gain any clarification on the matter.\\\
That night, as the Shepherds travel across the Plegia highroads, Robin is left feeling troubled by the thoughts of the Hierophant. But from out of nowhere, he hears the Hierophant's voice, before a headache suddenly consumes him. from which Validar's voice comes out. The king reveals himself to be Robin's father, and demand that he give himself up to "him": the Fell Dragon, Grima. However, Chrom, who overheard his friend's shout, enters the scene, forcing Validar to drop his connection. His headache dissipating, Robin proceeds to inform Chrom of what Validar told him, and the prince speculates that the Hierophant may be a twin brother, though Robin himself is unsure. But Frederick comes in with troubling news: despite the posted sentries guarding them, they are now under Risen attack! Chrom curses Validar for enabling it, then prepares the Shepherds for battle.\\\
With the help of Henry, a disarmingly optimistic Plegian dark mage with a love for blood and a near-perpetual grin, the Shepherds manage to kill the Risen Chief leading the ambush. But from out of nowhere, a Risen assassin appears, attempting to kill Chrom, only to be blocked by the arriving "Marth". But in the process, she accidentally refers to Chrom as "Father". With nowhere else to go but for the truth, she requests a private audiance with him, where she asks him to look at her in the eye.

They are interrupted by Robin, who remarks that [[NotWhatItLooksLike the way they look may bring ill rumors]].

With no time to waste, the Shepherds cut through Chalard and his men, while keeping three nearby villages out of harm's way. With the villainous men disposed of, the misunderstanding is cleared: Nowi had been enslaved by brigands, but Gregor decided to free her, only for them to be pursued by the evil men seeking to sacrifice her: the Grimleal, a fanatical cult worshipping Grima, the Fell Dragon who terrorized the world before the First Exalt of Ylisse defeated him a thousand years ago. Toavoid prevent Nowi from going back to the auction board or falling into Grimleal hands, the Shepherds agree to enlist her and Gregor into their services. With the pair's issues solved, the army takes a rest on Flavia's suggestion, as the Plegian capital is near.

His retainer, a wyvern rider named Cherche, reveals that they hail from the Valmese country of Rosanne.

In Port Ferox, Dalton, the xenophobic leader of the Valmese fleet, makes the demands of the Valmese Empire to the continent of Ylisse known: surrender all ships, provisions, and possessions (especially the Fire Emblem) and swear fealty to Emperor Waljart, or face death! To prove his point, he executes a villager who attempted to negotiate. Seeing this, Chrom readies his troops for battle. Frederick is concerned about Ylisse having to fight another war only two years after the end of the last one, but Chrom's decision remains firm: he understands the consequences, but he believes he must stand against evil in all its forms so that the world may truly know peace.\\\
With the help of Cherche and her wyvern Minerva, the Shepherds prevail over Dalton's forces, but it quickly becomes apparent that both the town surrounding the port ''and'' the Feroxi army is in shambles. This does not bode well for everyone, as Feroxi soldiers are known to be the finest troops of the eastern seas. Worse, the forces they had just repelled was merely an appetizer: a much larger fleet is on the way. And once they arrive on shore, there would be no way for Ferox or Ylisse to repel them. Robin notes that Valm's greatest asset is their land cavalry, so they need to neutralize that advantage by attacking the Valmese at sea. But neither Ylisse nor Ferox owns any warships on the western border, which means they will need aid from one which does have them, as well as the funds needed to sustain a counterattack: Plegia. Chrom refuses at first, but relents after some persuasion from Basilio, Flavia, and Robin.\\\
Soon enough, Frederick informs the prince that Plegia agrees to meet them in Carrion Isle, an island to the south. Not an advantageous location in the event of negotiations going sour, but Chrom is certain that Plegia will want to help, since Valm is as much of a threat to them as it is to everyone else.

[[folder:Chapter 10: Renewal]]
The loss of Emmeryn looms above the Ylisseans as they make their escape through the rains of the Midmire. Chrom is especially devastated by the loss of his sister. But as they make their way, a team of Plegians, led by the good-hearted general Mustafa, intercepts them on Gangrel's orders.\\\
Mustafa, sympathetic to the Ylisseans and touched by Emmeryn's words, offers to grant them mercy if they surrender. The Shepherds, however, are unwilling to trust his word and rally themselves to arms.\\\
As the battle continues, several Plegian soldiers become reluctant to fight, themselves also touched by Emmeryn's sacrifice. Mustafa dismisses anyone unwilling to fight any further, but he himself would not leave, for the price would be to lose his wife and child. The general's words inspire his men to continue fighting for a different cause: loyalty for him.\\\
Mustafa fights valiantly, but he is eventually struck down; his final request is only that Ylisse would spare all of his surviving men. With the battle won, the Shepherds make their escape to regroup in Ferox, with the help of a particular woman close to Basilio: Olivia, a shy but talented dancer.\\\
In Castle Ferox, the Shepherds lament the loss of their Exalt. Chrom in particular felt powerless, unable to do anything to save his sister. He doubts that he could live up to her, but a few choice words from Robin and the rest of the Shepherds convince him otherwise. His resolve strengthened by their encouragement, Chrom knows what to do next: stop Gangrel, and avenge Emmeryn. Olivia, seeking to honor a debt of gratitude to the Exalt, offers her assistance as well, and the Regna Ferox khans affirm their support in putting an end to Gangrel's tyrannical reign. Renewed, the Shepherds march forward to stop the Mad King once and for all.

[[folder:Chapter 11: Mad King Gangrel]]
The war reaches the Border Wastes, a tract of land in the Ferox-Plegia border where Altea, the homeland of the Hero-King Marth, once stood. Aversa discusses the matter of the Shepherds with Gangrel, noting that they are taking the field and that they seem to be in surprisingly higher spirits than expected. Gangrel, however, remains confident that victory will be his. However, a Plegian soldier comes with terrible news: members of the army are laying down their weapons en masse.\\\
As the Shepherds approach the Border Wastes, ready to dethrone Gangrel once and for all, Frederick bids tidings from Flavia: the Plegian army is fractured from infighting and desertion. Chrom surmises that the deserters are dissuaded from fighting by Emmeryn's sacrifice, a notion which Frederick confirms. Realizing that Plegians also seek peace, the Shepherds March to defeat Gangrel and return peace to both Ylisse and Plegia.\\\
Gangrel, more than ready for one last battle, stands by himself. He taunts Chrom over the loss of his sister while comparing themselves as not-so different from each other, but the prince, confident with his brothers-and-sisters-in-arms by his side, refuses to be disheartened. Thus, the final battle of the war begins.\\\
Despite Plegian reinforcements, the Shepherds, helped by Olivia and her spirit-renewing dances, manage to come on top, and defeats Gangrel. The Mad King falls with one last taunt to share:
->'''Gangrel''': F-fool of...a prince... Your people care not for you... You are...alone... As every man lives and dies: ...alone…\\\
With Gangrel's defeat, the remaining members of the Plegian army lay down their weapons, and the fighting ceases. With the fighting over, and the negotiations for the peace terms underway, Chrom thanks the Regna Ferox khans for their help in the war. [[labelnote:Bonus scene]] If Chrom is not married by the start of the chapter, depending on his support levels, an additional scene will play, where he proposes to Sumia, Sully, Maribelle, or a female Robin if they are unmarried, based on whom he has the highest support with, granted they have at least one point. Additionally, if Olivia fulfills specific requirements to marry Chrom, they will automatically marry; if Chrom has no available options, he will marry an unnamed village maiden. In either case, no scene will play.[[/labelnote]]\\\
And so, the second Ylisse-Plegia War is over. The daunting task of leading the reconstruction of Ylisse lies ahead of Chrom and Robin, for the war had taken a great toll on the populace, but with the help of Regna Ferox as well as the reparation gold from Plegia, the Halidom stirs back towards recovery. In the meantime, the prince refuses the title of Exalt, in the memory of his sister. Soon after, the royal wedding is held, and it is a joyous moment to all. At last, the lingering wound of history seems to have been healed.\\\
[[TimeSkip Two years later, however...]]\\\
An urgent message from Flavia arrives in the form of Raimi: the western continent of Valm, renamed after the first ruler of the unified continent of Valentia, Alm the Saint-King, is no longer acting to the best interests of Ylisse. The Khan Regnant wishes to meet with the prince personally, a motion Chrom agrees to. Before departing for Ferox, Chrom meets with his wife, along with their newborn baby: a daughter named Lucina. If Chrom had married the maiden, she reluctantly accepts his choice to depart while she stays, as she knows nothing of combat. Otherwise, his wife objects to the prospect of staying, since Lucina can be left with a wet nurse while they are in Ferox, to Chrom's reluctant agreement; if he had married Olivia, they share a brief reminiscence of his proposal before leaving.\\\
In Castle Ferox, Flavia greets the Ylisseans and informs them that while the Valmese fleet is moving towards the continent of Ylisse, not much else is currently known. Basilio enters the scene with a familiar face: Virion the archer. As it turns out, he is a duke! His retainer, a wyvern rider named Cherche, reveals that they hail from the Valmese country of Rosanne. They have escaped in order to recruit new allies to fight against the eponymous country of Valm, which has transformed from a pitifully small kingdom to an empire, all thanks to its Emperor: Walhart, the Conqueror. With all of Valm under his control, Walhart has now set his eyes upon Ylisse; his fleet is due to arrive in a matter of days. With Virion's advice, the Shepherds prepare for a battle against a strong cavalry force.

Robin awakens in a field, and is greeted by a small group of people who had found him passed out on the ground: a young man named Chrom, leader of a group of "Shepherds"; his younger sister, Lissa; and their knight, Frederick. Robin has no memory of how he wound up in that field, or any memory before awakening: it takes some time for him to even remember his name. This draws suspicion from Frederick, who believes Robin may be a bandit attempting to catch them unawares. Chrom, however, wants to give Robin the benefit of the doubt, and asks Robin to accompany him to the Halidom of Ylisse, so that they can determine if he is friend or foe.
On their way to Ylisse, however, they come across a village being ransacked by bandits. Chrom and his fellow Shephers rush in to fight them off. Robin joins the fray shortly afterwards. As it turns out, Robin is not only handy in a scrap, but has a knack for battle tactics. He and Chrom both lead Lissa and Frederick to victory against the bandits and drive them out of town.
When the dust settles, Frederick shares with the others that he noted a distinct accent among the bandits, suggesting they came from Plegia, a kingdom neighboring Ylisse's western borders. Plegia has long desired war with Ylisse, and is known to send bandits in the hopes of instigating conflict.
Robin is confused as to why Chrom and his companions are armed for a bunch of shepherds. Chrom explains that his "flock" is the people of Ylisse: they fight to defend them.

Robin and the Shepherds set up camp that night and share a meal of bear meat (to Lissa's disguse and Frederick's reluctance). Their respite is cut short, however, by the opening of a portal and the appearance of undead warriors who attack the Shepherds fiercely. They are aided, however, by a young man, his face concealed by a mask, who also appears from the portal and fends off these "Risen".
As the forest becomes engulfed in flames, more Risen appear. The Shepherds get more help from Sully, another ally of Chrom; and Virion, an archer who doggedly pursues Sully's affections.
After the battle, the young man introduces himself as "Marth", taking his name from the Hero-King of Ylissean legend. He warns Chrom that what they saw was but a prelude to a greater calamity before taking his leave.
As day breaks, the Shepherds and Robin arrive in Yllistol, the Halidom's capital. While making their way through the city, Ylisse's ruler, the Exalted Emmeryn, appears to greet the townsfolk. Lissa reveals that Emmeryn is her older sister, making her and Chrom princess and prince!

Before setting off to head off the bandits, Lissa takes Robin to the Shepherds' garrison to introduce him to his compatriots: Sumia, a clumsy knight who carries a flame for Chrom; Vaike, a boistrous and crude soldier; and Maribelle, a lady noble and Lissa's best friend.

After returning to Ylisstol, Chrom confides in Robin his concerns. Gangrel's taunts towards Ylisse was not entirely without merit: his father, the previous Exalt of Ylisse, waged a long, brutal crusade against the Grimleal in Plegia that only ended fifteen years ago when he died. Ylisse also suffered during the war, and their military was slowly diminished to the point where farmers were conscripted. When the Exalt died, Emmeryn, not even ten years old, assumed leadership of the nation. At first, she was a target of scorn and hatred by her own people, but over the course of the fifteen years since becoming exalt, worked hard to eventually win back the people's favor. He worries that Gangrel would take advantage of her kind and gentle nature, and believes the one solution to this quandary is to kill Gangrel.
Chrom and Robin are approached once more by Marth, who warns them that the Exalt was in danger of being assassinated this very night. To prove the veracity of his claim, he warns Chrom of assailants waiting to attack him at that moment. Marth and Chrom fend off the assassins, but Marth's mask is broken in the fighting, and it is revealed that "he" is actually a young woman!
An explosion rocks the palace shortly thereafter as assassins, including a reluctant thief named Gaius, break in. A taguel named Panne joins the fray, as well. Marth reveals her to be an ally as they fight to drive off the assassins, lead by a foul sorcerer named Validar.
With Emmeryn safe, Chrom seeks out "Marth". She takes her leave, content that Emmeryn's safety had averted the series of events that had lead to the realm's ruination.

[[folder:Premonition: Invisible Ties]]
Robin and Chrom stand before Validar in a battle that would determine the fate of the realm. Together, the brothers-in-arms attack the wicked sorcerer. Eventually, the two manage to lay Validar low, but the dastard fires a bolt of magic at Chrom in a last-ditch effort to kill him. Chrom intercepts the attack and deflects it.
All seems well, at first. As Chrom helps Robin to his feet, however, a dark force suddenly takes over Robin's body, forcing him to attack Chrom. Mortally wounded, Chrom assures Robin that he is not at fault as he collapses upon the floor, dead...
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Prologue: The Verge of History]]
Robin awakens in a field, and is greeted by a small group of people who had found him passed out on the ground: a young man named Chrom, leader of a group of "Shepherds"; his younger sister, Lissa; and their knight, Frederick. Robin has no memory of how he wound up in that field, or any memory before awakening: it takes some time for him to even remember his name. This draws suspicion from Frederick, who believes Robin may be a bandit attempting to catch them unawares. Chrom, however, wants to give Robin the benefit of the doubt, and asks Robin to accompany him to the Halidom of Ylisse, so that they can determine if he is friend or foe.
On their way to Ylisse, however, they come across a village being ransacked by bandits. Chrom and his fellow Shephers rush in to fight them off. Robin joins the fray shortly afterwards. As it turns out, Robin is not only handy in a scrap, but has a knack for battle tactics. He and Chrom both lead Lissa and Frederick to victory against the bandits and drive them out of town.
When the dust settles, Frederick shares with the others that he noted a distinct accent among the bandits, suggesting they came from Plegia, a kingdom neighboring Ylisse's western borders. Plegia has long desired war with Ylisse, and is known to send bandits in the hopes of instigating conflict.
Robin is confused as to why Chrom and his companions are armed for a bunch of shepherds. Chrom explains that his "flock" is the people of Ylisse: they fight to defend them.
With the town saved, the Shepherds and Robin set out once more...
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 1: Unwelcome Changes]]
Robin and the Shepherds set up camp that night and share a meal of bear meat (to Lissa's disguse and Frederick's reluctance). Their respite is cut short, however, by the opening of a portal and the appearance of undead warriors who attack the Shepherds fiercely. They are aided, however, by a young man, his face concealed by a mask, who also appears from the portal and fends off these "Risen".
As the forest becomes engulfed in flames, more Risen appear. The Shepherds get more help from Sully, another ally of Chrom; and Virion, an archer who doggedly pursues Sully's affections.
After the battle, the young man introduces himself as "Marth", taking his name from the Hero-King of Ylissean legend. He warns Chrom that what they saw was but a prelude to a greater calamity before taking his leave.
As day breaks, the Shepherds and Robin arrive in Yllistol, the Halidom's capital. While making their way through the city, Ylisse's ruler, the Exalted Emmeryn, appears to greet the townsfolk. Lissa reveals that Emmeryn is her older sister, making her and Chrom princess and prince!
Chrom and the others meet with Emmeryn in the palace in order to relay news of Plegian bandits attacking villages and the appearance of the Risen, as well as Robin's induction into the Shepherds. Before they can discuss the matters at length, however, news arrives of more Risen within Ylisse's borders.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 2: Shepherds]]
Before setting off to head off the bandits, Lissa takes Robin to the Shepherds' garrison to introduce him to his compatriots: Sumia, a clumsy knight who carries a flame for Chrom; Vaike, a boistrous and crude soldier; and Maribelle, a lady noble and Lissa's best friend. After introductions are made, Chrom arrives and announces that the Shepherds would march to Regna Ferox, a neighboring kingdom to the north, to request aid against Plegia.
The group set out, and are joined shortly afterwards by Stahl, a cavalier with a big appetite; and Miriel, a studious if deadpan mage. As they make their way north, however, they are set upon by Riisen. They manage to fight their way past them.
As they continue their treck, the Shepherds come upon a wounded pegasus. Chrom's attempts to aid it are met with resistance from the winged stallion, but Sumia reveals her knack for caring for pegasi. She stays behind to tend to its wounds while Chrom and they others march on.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 3: Warrior Realm]]
Along the northern border of Ylisse, the Shepherds come across the Longfort, a fort that is the only known entrance from Ylisse into Regna Ferox. Their attempts to enter the country are stopped by the Longfort's guardian, Raimi, who believe the Shepherds to be brigands and sets her archers upon them. Sumia rescues Chrom, however, astride the pegasus she healed. As they are joined by Kellam, a knight and ally of Chrom with an unfortunate tendency of being forgotten, looked over, and left behind, the Shepherds fight back against the Feroxi forces.
Eventually, Raimi relents: recognizing Chrom's claim to be of Ylissean royalty as genuine, she permits him and his Shepherds entrance into Regna Ferox.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 4: Two Falchions]]
Now in Regna Ferox, Chrom and the Shepherds meet with Flavia, the khan of the realm...or so they believe, at first. In truth, Flavia is on of two khans, the east khan. She holds no power to offer aid to the Shepherds, however: that power lies with the west khan, who had bested her in a tournament to determine who would rule the realm. The Shepherds' time is fortuitous, though: another tournament is about to be held. Being a tournament by champion, Flavia enlists the aid of Chrom and his Shepherds to fight on her behalf, promising to aid her military might to them should they win.
In the tournament, Chrom once more encounters "Marth", who is fighting as a champion of Basilio, the west khan and current ruler. To Chrom's surprise, the sword Marth wields looks exactly like his own Falchion! Marth claims he had learned to fight from his father, and he and Chrom prove an even match for each other. In the end, however, Chrom emerges victorious, as does his Shepherds.
With Flavia now ruler of Ragna Ferox again, she officially agrees to lend soldiers to Ylisse's defense. They are greeted by Basilio and, in respect of Chrom's martial skills, lends his best soldier to Chrom's Shepherds: Lon'qu, a swordsman from the far-away island nation of Chon'sin.
Chrom and the Shepherds return to Ylisse to relay the good news to Emmeryn. There is little time to rejoice, however: Plegian soldiers had crossed the border into Ylisse and had taken Maribelle captive! What's more, the ruler of Plegia, the Mad King Gangrel, has claimed Maribelle crossed illegally into his kingdom! Chrom wishes to kill Gangrel and be done with him, but Emmeryn insists that she meet him at the border and try to parley. Chrom agrees to allow her to go, but insists he and his Shepherds escort her.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 5: The Exalt and the King]]
Emmeryn and Chrom's Shepherds meet with Gangrel, who is escorted by his trusted subordinate, Aversa. Maribelle is also present, being held hostage by a Plegian brigand, and claims the Plegians had dragged her across the border and razed a nearby Ylissean village. Gangrel insists Maribelle is at fault, and in exchange for her safe release, demands the Fire Emblem, Ylisse's greatest treasure.
Before Maribelle could come to harm, she is rescued by Ricken, a young mage-in-training. Gangrel declares war upon Ylisse and leaves his captain, Orton, to deal with the Shepherds. The Shepherds succeed in fighting off Orton and his forces and, with Maribelle safe, return to Ylisstol to discuss what how to proceed with the coming war with Plegia.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 6: Forseer]]
After returning to Ylisstol, Chrom confides in Robin his concerns. Gangrel's taunts towards Ylisse was not entirely without merit: his father, the previous Exalt of Ylisse, waged a long, brutal crusade against the Grimleal in Plegia that only ended fifteen years ago when he died. Ylisse also suffered during the war, and their military was slowly diminished to the point where farmers were conscripted. When the Exalt died, Emmeryn, not even ten years old, assumed leadership of the nation. At first, she was a target of scorn and hatred by her own people, but over the course of the fifteen years since becoming exalt, worked hard to eventually win back the people's favor. He worries that Gangrel would take advantage of her kind and gentle nature, and believes the one solution to this quandary is to kill Gangrel.
Chrom and Robin are approached once more by Marth, who warns them that the Exalt was in danger of being assassinated this very night. To prove the veracity of his claim, he warns Chrom of assailants waiting to attack him at that moment. Marth and Chrom fend off the assassins, but Marth's mask is broken in the fighting, and it is revealed that "he" is actually a young woman!
An explosion rocks the palace shortly thereafter as assassins, including a reluctant thief named Gaius, break in. A taguel named Panne joins the fray, as well. Marth reveals her to be an ally as they fight to drive off the assassins, lead by a foul sorcerer named Validar.
With Emmeryn safe, Chrom seeks out "Marth". She takes her leave, content that Emmeryn's safety had averted the series of events that had lead to the realm's ruination. Back in the palace, arrangements are made to escort Emmeryn to an eastern capital for safety while Chrom and the Shepherds petition Regna Ferox for additional aid.
All the while, Validar finds himself in a dark void, where he is approached by "Grima"...
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 7: Incursion]]
As Chrom and the Shepherds escort Emmeryn through Breakneck Pass, they are set upon by Plegian soldiers, lead by Vasto. Chrom fends them off, but in the fighting, Plegian soldiers storm Ylisse's borders. Cordelia, a pegasus knight and the last of her squad to survive Gangrel's onslaught, arrives to warn them of the incursion.
Emmeryn decides to return to the capital, in spite of the danger, to bring hope to the people, and orders the Fire Emblem taken to Regna Ferox for safety.
Within Ferox, Chrom wrestles with grief and worry. Sumia, in an honest effort to snap him out of his funk, punches him across the face. Flavia, witnessing this event, renews her commitment to Chrom to send him aid, as well as joining the fray, herself, with Basilio in tow.
Unfortunately, terrifying news arrives: Emmeryn has been captured, and King Gangrel intends to put her to death! Chrom vows to save her, and Robin agrees to lend his aid.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 8: The Grimleal]]
As the Shepherds march through the desert, they come across Nowi, a half-human half-dragon manakete; and Gregor, a mercenary attempting to aid her. Both are being attacked by the Grimleal, a notorious cult who worships the fell dragon Grima that terrorized the realm before being defeated by the first Exalt. Chrom and the Shepherds fight off the Grimleal while protecting nearby villages before continuing their march to the Plegian capital.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chapter 9: Emmeryn]]
As Validar and "Grima" discuss Emmeryn's impending doom and how history would return to its original course, the Shepherds march on the Plegian capital as Emmeryn is put on the chopping block at the top of a cliff. A melee breaks out between the Plegians, including a reluctant and antisocial mage named Tharja, and the Shepherds, who are joined by a war monk named Libra.
The battle swings in the Shepherds' favor, but their momentum is halted when Gangrel orders his archers to take aim at Emmeryn. He makes his ultimatum: relinquish the Fire Emblem, or the exalt dies!
Before Chrom could act, however, Emmeryn makes a bold gesture. She calls out to the Plegians and begs them to release their hatred and break free from the cycle of violence and vengeance as she does what she must to change the world. With her final thoughts being those of love for Chrom, Lissa, and her people, she then falls from the cliff and to her demise...
Before Chrom can exact revenge, Basilio warns him of more soldiers inbound, and the Shepherds make a reluctant retreat.
