Garon: Difference between revisions

Corrin decides to fight for Hoshido, refusing to follow the man who orchestrated the death of many innocent lives, including their now departed mother. Despite their pleas to have Corrin return to Nohr, they remain steadfast in their decision as they declare that Garon is dead to them and he must be stopped. The Nohrians retreat afterwards and Corrin is branded a traitor to Nohr. Garon is not seen again until later on. When Corrin and the Hoshidan army arrives in Cyrkensia to begin their assault on Nohr, they learn that Garon is at the Opera House in hopes of seeing the famed songstress Layla. Seeing this as an opportunity to kidnap the King, Corrin's forces have Zola disguise Azura as Layla in order to pull it off. Despite Azura's dance, which caused mild discomfort in Garon, he catches on and reveals that he was aware of the Hoshidan army's presence thanks to Zola. After Zola defects, he asks Garon to spare Corrin for the kindness they showed him. Garon views Zola's request as a sign of treason and executes him in front of the Hoshidan army and Elise, who was accompanying him and he makes his escape afterwards.

After many trials and losses, Corrin reaches the throne room of Castle Krakenburg, and finally confronts Garon himself. Garon is "pleased" to see Corrin again, mocking them for making it this far. Garon tells Corrin that his family were all pawns for the war, angering Corrin, who is angered that Elise and Xander gave their lives to stop Corrin from killing Garon, yet he feels nothing at their deaths and Corrin declares Garon irredeemable and vows to kill him. However, when they try to attack him, their Noble Yato is unable to penetrate his armor, and in retaliation, Garon launches several blows at them. Azura attempts to use her powers to weaken him, but Garon anticipates this and grabs her, threatening to kill her unless they listen to his demands. Ryoma negotiates with him, and he responds that it is a wise choice. Garon demands that Hoshido unconditionally surrender so its lands can be incorporated into Nohr, then states that he wishes to kill Ryoma. Garon sends a fireball at Ryoma, wounding him. Garon mocks Corrin if they will surrender to him, or fight and ensure the deaths of all their friends.

Suddenly, Ryoma's Raijinto reacts to Corrin's Noble Yato, empowering it into the Blazing Yato. Corrin decides to test the new Yato on Garon, and he screams in pain, as the new Yato was able to injure him. Angered by this, he calls upon his soldiers to kill Corrin and the Hoshidans, but they fail and the Hoshidans fight and defeat him. Garon, refusing to give up, transforms into the form of the Dusk Dragon and continues to fight, but is eventually defeated for good and killed by the Hoshidans. Before dying, he laments to Corrin that he was long dead before dissipating into water. Corrin speculates as to what exactly he means, but is unable to come to any conclusions. With the death of Garon, the war between Hoshido and Nohr ends.
