“ | Oho! Does she look familiar? Even so, I can assure you this is not the woman you know. She comes from a different world than you or I—one already well on its way to ruin. Be warned, she's not to be underestimated. Or trusted. ...Or shown secret heirlooms. | ” | — Old Hubba, explaining the alternate Outrealm Aversa |

Champions of Yore 2 is a downloadable content xenologue chapter in Fire Emblem Awakening. As a xenologue chapter, it does not officially bear a chapter number; if all xenologues are purchased and its list is viewed at the Outrealm Gate, Champions of Yore 2 is the second one from the top in the North American version of the game. Officially in Japan and unofficially in North America, Champions of Yore 2 is part of the first series of DLC releases, a distinction that does not exist in the PAL regions.
This chapter was first made available on April 26, 2012 in Japan, February 7, 2013 in North America, and May 2-3 in the PAL regions. In the Japanese version of the game, the previous chapter, Champions of Yore 1, must be purchased and completed before the player is able to purchase this chapter; no such restriction exists in international versions of the game.
In this chapter, the temptress responsible for the previous skirmish in the Outrealms has again stolen Old Hubba's cards, and this time sent ten legendary male figures against Old Hubba and the Shepherds. The Shepherds this time have at their defense three legendary female figures.

By evening in the Talys-based Outrealm, Chrom asks if the Shepherds are indeed in the same Outrealm as before, then asks that they get out of here before Old Hubba shows up--right as Old Hubba shows up. Old Hubba says he can't believe Chrom has returned, but also reveals he divined Chrom's return (again tripping up on a word); Chrom asks Old Hubba to listen, to which Old Hubba reveal that if his wife Beatrice were still around to see Chrom take pity on him, with Old Hubba revealing Beatrice as having been a big supporter of charity--having married him after all. Chrom asks Old Hubba to point the Shepherds to the stolen Einherjar cards and they can be on their way; Old Hubba states he actually had a vision that they'd find the thief as he counts down. The thief is revealed to be Aversa, who asks Old Hubba if he really followed her all the way to where she's situated, saying she loves a man with endurance; Old Hubba reveals Aversa is right on schedule and reveals her as the filthy, lying, exquisite beauty who stole his cards. Chrom begins to recognize Aversa, to which Old Hubba asks Chrom if Aversa looks familiar, and says he can assure Chrom this Aversa is not the woman he knows--she comes from a different world than either Chrom or Old Hubba, one that is already well on its way to ruin, then warns Chrom that this Aversa is not to be underestimated, trusted, or shown secret heirlooms; Aversa adds that they should not do so when she has all of Old Hubba's big, strong Einherjar to protect her, as he never told her that his calling cards summoned heroes from the past, and that Old Hubba of all people know how much she loves antiques as she calls him by the nickname "Bubbles". Old Hubba tells Aversa she doesn't get to call him by that nickname anymore, then asks Chrom to see what she does, then tells Chrom he'd love to assist the Shepherds in fighting her--if only he hadn't thrown his back out, but at least he has the Einherjar they reclaimed for him the previous time. Old Hubba calls forth his brave and comely heroines, that they should lend him their swords and shapely muscles. Eirika appears and says she'll do as Old Hubba wishes, that she will strike down any wrongdoers. Lyn appears and says she'll show everyone what she can do with a blade. Celica appears and says she hopes they can end this with as little bloodshed as possible for their sakes. Old Hubba reveals the selection he revealed is not bad, then wishes the Shepherds good luck. Preparations take place at this point.
Once preparations are finished, Aversa tells one of the units on the opposition she's counting on him; Prince Marth confirms and says he's hers to command. Chrom notices Marth looks different from before, to which Old Hubba reveals to be another reflection of the same man and explains that, just as no two artists would paint him the same way, the cards also differ--even cards of the same person have different appearances and abilities; Marth notices the Shepherds and ask them if they have come to kidnap Aversa, something he will not allow, then asks the Shepherds to leave before any harm comes to them. Old Hubba tells Marth that the group are not kidnappers, they would never think of tying Aversa up and making her beg for mercy; Chrom tells Old Hubba that he was the one who said the Einherjar couldn't be reasoned with, to which Marth says enough lies have been thrown around, asking the Shepherds to draw their weapons and die with honor. Old Hubba says it was worth a try, he did his part, the rest is up to Chrom and the Shepherds, to which Chrom thanks Old Hubba for the assistance. The battle begins at this point. At the end of the first player phase, Roy states things don't feel right, wondering if he and the rest of his group are really doing what's best for [Talys'] kingdom.
Once the battle ends, Aversa tells Old Hubba that the Shepherds are quite something, and that she'd best retreat for now, leaving the scene; Chrom calls for Aversa to get back there, to which Old Hubba says he still has it before realizing Aversa got away, then says he had soothsaw this ahead of time (again tripping over his words)--Old Hubba says he knew this would happen from the first time he met Aversa. Aversa had came to Old Hubba's house asking to be his apprentice, with her having said he was her master; Old Hubba woke up one morning to find Aversa gone along with most of his Einherjar--the cards had been well hidden in a place kept secret for generations. Chrom asks Old Hubba not to blame himself, Aversa probably used some dark art to divine the place; Old Hubba reveals he told Aversa where the Einherjar were--he thought she'd be impressed by this juicy secret and she indeed was, especially at the map he drew. Old Hubba wonders if his ancestors would understand his folly, and wonders what his great-uncle Fondell would do. Old Hubba asks Chrom not to judge him lest he be judged later, as Old Hubba sees big lady troubles for Chrom in his future; Chrom says he's not too worried given Old Hubba's record up to now, then asks Old Hubba to use his crystal ball to tell him where Aversa fled to with the other cards, to which Old Hubba believes to be a different Outrealm and they'll catch her next time. Chrom says he's not so sure there'll be a next time, that the Shepherds really should be going; Old Hubba then says he's having another vision, another one of the future where the Shepherds are again all there, that they defeated Aversa and found another family treasure she stole--a precious tome that allows one to learn a special skill that Old Hubba is giving to Chrom. Old Hubba sees Chrom looks so happy to help him, to which Chrom says he'll consider it, with Old Hubba thanking him and revealing there's again no rush, given how the time continuum works. Old Hubba says that he's giving the Shepherds a card to help them out, the card being that of "The Young Lion, Roy", noting him as a quite dashing figure he's entrusting to Robin.
In what appears to be a space between Outrealms, a conversation will then ensue between Roy and the player, with the choices the player makes affecting what Roy says next. At the end of the conversation, the player will then be given an offer to add Roy to their active roster, which they can either accept or decline.
Website summary

Trivia
- As the Outrealm Gate opens at the end of the chapter before the one that introduces Aversa to the player, the fact that Chrom recognizes Aversa may imply the two were familiar with one another before the game's events, although it may also imply that the scenario of this chapter was written with having already played chapter 5 in mind.
- As the alternate Outrealm version of Aversa is introduced as being from a world that is already well on its way to ruin, this potentially implies that the version of Aversa found here could be native to a known ruined future, such as Lucina's original future or the realm of the Future Past series.
- Chrom noticing Marth looks different than before is due to the usage of different artwork between Champions of Yore 1 and this chapter. In the former, Marth was the feature DLC character and thus had DLC artwork; in the latter, a different character is the feature DLC character and thus Marth uses his Shadow Dragon set SpotPass artwork.
- The characters in the enemy lineup in this chapter are the same ones in the NPC lineup in Rogues & Redeemers 1.
