Corrin asks Felicia if she actually saw invisible soldiers, to which Felicia confirms, albeit stating they weren't completely invisible; Felicia states she screamed when she saw the soldiers, causing them to run off. Corrin asks which direction the soldiers ran off in, to which Felicia states she tried to follow them but then went through a sliver of light acting like a gateway—she peered inside, but all she could see were trees, stating she's never seen a forest like it; Corrin naturally wonders about the forest across the gateway, to which Felicia states it didn't feel like any place they've been to—it felt like [[Archanea (continent)|another world entirely]]. Corrin states that, if the invisible soldiers went to that world, the people there may be in danger and they need to chase after them; he asks Felicia if she remembers where the gate is, to which Felicia states she does and asks Corrin to follow her.

Corrin asks Jakob if he actually saw invisible soldiers, to which Jakob confirms, albeit stating they weren't completely invisible; Jakob states he threw a [[dagger]] the moment he saw them, but they slipped away too quickly. Corrin asks which direction the soldiers ran off in, to which Jakob states he tried to follow them but then went through a sliver of light acting like a gateway—he approached it and peered inside, but all he could see were trees, stating he's never seen such a forest; Corrin naturally wonders about the forest across the gateway, to which Jakob states it wasn't familiar to him at all—it [[Archanea (continent)|didn't even feel like]] the same world they're in. Corrin states that, if the invisible soldiers went to that world, the people there may be in danger and they need to chase after them; she asks Jakob if he remembers where the gate is, to which Jakob states he does.

| Once in the forest, Corrin states that they've safely made it through the gate, but then asks where they are, to which {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}} states {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=she doesn't have a clue|f=he hasn't the foggiest idea}}; as Corrin asks what they're going to do now, {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he spots a legible sign and reads it to find that they are in the Halidom of [[Ylisse]]. A man named [[Chrom]] approaches and asks Corrin if {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he needs any help, startling them, to which Chrom notices {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he's a bit lost; a man named [[Frederick]] tells Chrom he doesn't think he's ever seen Corrin or h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} army before, after which a woman named [[Lissa]] says she believes them to be travelers, which would explain the strange clothes they're wearing. Corrin asks Chrom's group just who they are; Chrom first introduces himself as the captain of the [[Shepherds (group)|Shepherds]], then introduces Lissa as the "delicate one", prompting an angry reaction from Lissa, before finally introducing Frederick, who states he serves as Chrom's aide and second-in-command. Corrin then introduces h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=imself and Felicia|f=erself and Jakob}}, who states {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=it's nice to make the Shepherds' acquaintance|f=he's pleased to be of service}}; Chrom states it's a pleasure to meet them and then asks Corrin what brings h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} army through the area that day, to which Corrin states they're in pursuit of a group. Corrin then asks Chrom if he's noticed anything strange lately, possibly having seen invisible warriors, prompting a puzzled reaction from Chrom; Frederick deduces that Ylisse has been invaded and reveals that they could be from neighboring [[Plegia]]. {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}} tells Corrin to remember that they might be in another world, and they should do their best not to confuse or panic the Shepherds if they can avoid it; Corrin takes the opportunity to state {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he meant "invisible warthogs", that their prized invisible warthogs got loose, to which {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia tells him he's not good at improvising|Jakob tells her she could work on her improvising}}. Chrom inquires about the invisible warthogs, to which Corrin states that they are a very dangerous type of beast from their [[Hoshido|home]][[Nohr|land]]—excellent guard animals, but can cause a lot of trouble if left alone; {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}}, attempting to convince Chrom of Corrin's lie, states that these warthogs {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=can even destroy towns and are very dangerous—if one thinks of the worst wild animal they can, these are much worse|f=are vicious beasts known to destroy towns and [[village]]s, saying he cannot stress how dangerous they are}}. Chrom states that the warthogs sound awful, to which Corrin states it's best to run away if one spots an invisible warthog, and if they're too close, to hold nothing back when fighting them; Chrom asks Corrin if the warthogs really are theirs, to which Corrin states who owns them isn't important—it matters more to h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im|f=er}} that no one gets hurt in their rampage, and they've traveled very far to make sure everyone stays safe, with Chrom making a nervous reaction. Frederick states that he finds Corrin's behavior very suspicious and asks h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im what he's|f=er what she's}} up to, h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} story sounds unlikely at best; Frederick also reveals {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}}'s manner of address toward Corrin and asks h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im|f=er}} to be kind enough to explain why {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he'd be addressed as a l{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=ord|f=ady}}. Corrin attempts to start improvising again, with {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}} thinking they'd all be doomed if Corrin were to improvise again; {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=she then duly states that Corrin is a prince|f=he states Frederick has some nerve even suggesting the slightest of ill intentions, reveals that Corrin is a princess, and that she deserves the utmost respect}}, prompting shocked reactions from Frederick and Lissa with {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}} having to confirm. Corrin tries to rein {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}} in, before Chrom notices the surprising revelation before he then states that he himself is a prince{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m= as well|f=}}, in turn prompting a shocked reaction from Corrin. A young boy appears on the scene and screams loudly, which Corrin notices and {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia|f=Jakob}} noticing which direction it came from; Corrin asks {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia to come with him|f=Jakob to come with her}}, as {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he believes they might have found their invisible warriors—correctng it to "warthogs" on the fly, to which {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia states she's got this|f=Jakob reluctantly following}}. Lissa attempts to inquire, before Chrom states that the Shepherds are going as well, calling for Lissa and Frederick following him, to which Frederick confirms.

| We cut to the bridge at the Northroad, where Corrin notices the invisible soldiers and {{#switch:{{#var:A}}
| |
| |m=Felicia states she's so glad they found them|f=Jakob asks her to leave everything to him and that he shall eliminate them properly}}; Chrom asks Corrin to wait and states the Shepherds will join them, to which Corrin states {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he doesn't want to involve the Shepherds in h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} army's troubles. Chrom states it is the Shepherds' duty as defenders of Ylisse to help whenever it's threatened, thus they'll aid Corrin; Corrin thanks Chrom and ask they work together to end the invisible soldiers' rampage. [[Preparations]] take place at this point.
| |
|
| |
| Once the battle ends, Corrin states {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he believes they've gotten all of the invisible soldiers, to which Chrom states he owes h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im|f=er}}, that Corrin and h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} army have his gratitude; Corrin states that h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} army were the ones that got the Shepherds into this mess and to think nothing of it, even apologizing for putting the Shepherds and Ylissean inhabitants into harm's way, and they'll do their best to prevent something like this from happening again—{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia states that she wishes they could say it actually would never happen again, but they can't make that kind of promise|f=Jakob states the "beasts" (referencing Corrin's earlier "warthogs" lie) attack without warning, stating he regrets they cannot promise this is the last they'll see of them}}, to which Corrin states is unfortunately true. Chrom deduces that things must be rough in Corrin's kingdom.

|
| |
| The first time the player completes the chapter, Chrom asks Corrin to take two valuable gifts with h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im|f=er}}; to Lissa's shocked reaction, Chrom reveals the gifts to be the [[Exalt's Brand]] and [[Hero's Brand]] their sister [[Emmeryn]] gave him. Frederick asks Chrom if he's sure about it, as those gifts are on par with the kingdom's royal treasures, to which Corrin states {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he can't accept something like that from Chrom; Chrom states he wants Corrin to have them, knowing full well how valuable they are, but also thinking they would be of great help to Corrin and h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} allies—he saw how hard {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he fought hard to keep them all safe from harm and wants to show h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im|f=er}} his appreciation and asks Corrin to take them. Corrin thanks Chrom and promises to use the gifts well; Frederick states he cannot stop Chrom if he insists, and he will give Corrin something as well.
| |
|
| |
| Subsequent times the player completes the chapter, Frederick states that if they could only offer Corrin something that could help h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im|f=er}} in this time of need, then asks Corrin if {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he would be interested in an object he's holding.
| |
|
| |
|
| Upon Frederick offering an object, Corrin asks Frederick if he is giving h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=im|f=er}} a [[pebble]], to which Frederick confirms—he collects them from Chrom's and Lissa's path so they don't trip, and he has a strange feeling this pebble may [[Knife|help Corrin]] in some way, to whch Corrin states {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he'll find a way to use it. {{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=Felicia tells Corrin that they should start heading home|f=Jakob tells Corrin that he believes it would be in their best interest to head home}}, to which Corrin confirms and tells Chrom, Lissa, and Frederick it was nice meeting them; Chrom tells Corrin that, if {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he gets the chance, to come visit them again sometime, as he'd like to talk more about their respective kingdoms. Corrin states {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f|s}}he's sure if Chrom wishes it they'll someday meet again if they hold fast to their beliefs; Chrom confirms, saying he'll look forward to the day their paths cross again, to which Corrin thanks him and also hoping to spend some time together someday as well.
| | [[Felicia]] or [[Jakob]] report to [[Corrin]] that they saw [[Vallite|"invisible soldiers"]] appear in the castle and leave through [[Outrealm|a gateway to a foreign world]]; Corrin, worried about the safety of the people in the world the soldiers escaped to, travels to the world to track down the invaders. Upon arriving to the world, named the [[Ylisse|Halidom of Ylisse]], Corrin and company encounter [[Chrom]], [[Lissa]], and [[Frederick]] of the [[Shepherds (group)|Shepherds]]. Corrin's poor attempt at hiding the fact they are from another world arouses Frederick's suspicion, and they reveal that they are royalty; Chrom, in turn, reveals that he is the prince of Ylisse. However, the conversation is interrupted by the screams of a civilian attacked by the invaders. Corrin rushes to fight the soldiers; the Shepherds follow suit and proceed to fight alongside Corrin. |
|
| |
|
| After Corrin and h{{#switch:{{#var:A}}|m=is|f=er}} army leave the scene, Lissa notes their departure and the fact that they were interesting people, to which Chrom states he has a feeling they might see them again sometime; Lissa states she was thinking the same thing, that Corrin was a very talented leader and that she was really impressed by the different battle tactics {{#ifeq:{{#var:A}}|f=s}}he used, to which Chrom states the Shepherds could really benefit from a talented tactician, but battle strategy isn't his strength—Lissa stating Chrom is more brawn than brains, to which Chrom states he wouldn't go that far. Frederick tells Chrom and Lissa that they themselves should get on their way, that they must make headway farther south before sunset; Chrom apologizes and says they should get going, then notices that [[Robin|someone]]'s fainted up ahead, prompting a shocked reactions from Frederick and Lissa. Lissa asks what they should do with this person, to which Chrom states they need to offer h{{#switch:{{#var:B}}|m=im|f=er}} help; Chrom notes {{#ifeq:{{#var:B}}|f|s}}he isn't dead at least and asks why anyone would lay down out in this area, also noting he's never seen clothes like h{{#switch:{{#var:B}}|m=is|f=ers}} before. Chrom begins to ask another question, but Lissa tells him that they have to do something; Chrom asks Lissa for ideas, but Lissa says she has no idea. As Chrom notices the mysterious person is awake, after Lissa gets a quick word in, Chrom states to the mysterious person that there are better places to take a nap than on the ground, and asks h{{#switch:{{#var:B}}|m=im|f=er}} to give him a hand.
| | During the battle, Corrin can talk with Chrom, who inadvertently reveals that [[Hoshido]] and [[Nohr]] are famous legends in his world. After defeating all the soldiers, Chrom gives Corrin brands gifted to him by [[Emmeryn]] and Frederick gifts them a [[Pebble]] before they leave. Afterward, Chrom and Lissa reflect on Corrin and praise their tactical acumen before noticing [[Robin|an unconscious person]] laying in a field; they awake, and Chrom helps them up. |
