Prior to this, she is briefly playable in the shared beginning Chapters 4 and 5, but if the Birthright campaign is not chosen in Chapter 6, then she leaves the party. She is recruited again later in Chapter 9 of the Revelation campaign, where she will have the same stats she had at the conclusion of Chapter 5 before the route split.
