[[Corrin]]'s army finally arrives on [[Nohr]]ian shores in Cyrkensia, a city in the kingdom of [[Nestra]]; Corrin, mistaking this area as being [[Cheve]], deduces that [[Ryoma]] probably doesn't need their help if he's in the area, to which [[Hinoka]] explains their actual location to Corrin--Nestra being another neutral kingdom much like [[Izumo]], people from both [[Hoshido]] and Nohr vacation in Cyrkensia even during times of war, after which Corrin and [[Azura]] start to discuss the city's nightlife. [[Kaden]] runs into the group and introduces himself to them, to which he and Corrin discuss shapeshifting and Azura revealing him to be a Hoshidan [[kitsune]]; Kaden's MO for being in the area is revealed to be performin a favor for a human who was nice to him, after which we meet [[Layla]]. Layla's plight involves wanting to return home to visit her mother right away, yet a performance is scheduled for that evening and [[Garon]] will be in attendance; Azura offers to perform in Layla's stead as an opportunity to take the Nohrians by surprise, and when Kaden reveals that Azura and Layla look nothing alike, Azura reveals that [[Zola]] can rectify that. Azura reveals that, while Garon is distracted by her song, others can approach undetected--and should they manage to capture Garon, Nohr would have no choice but to negotiate for peace; Zola, despite being hesitant at what Garon might do should he found out, agrees to help and states that he can change Azura's appearance but not her voice, after which Corrin and Hinoka bring up Azura's [[Songstress|skill at singing]]. After Layla leaves the scene, Kaden asks Corrin if he could join his/her army and reveals how he can transform with his [[beaststone]]; [[Sakura]] states that there isn't much time left before the show begins, after which Corrin asks Zola to work his magic. | [[Corrin]]'s army finally arrives on [[Nohr]]ian shores in Cyrkensia, a city in the kingdom of [[Nestra]]; Corrin, mistaking this area as being [[Cheve]], deduces that [[Ryoma]] probably doesn't need their help if he's in the area, to which [[Hinoka]] explains their actual location to Corrin--Nestra being another neutral kingdom much like [[Izumo]], people from both [[Hoshido]] and Nohr vacation in Cyrkensia even during times of war, after which Corrin and [[Azura]] start to discuss the city's nightlife.

As the show starts, Elise and Garon discuss the upcoming performance, as Azura begins singing [[Lost in Thoughts All Alone]] to Corrin's shock; ''(Cutscene: "Light Song")'' Azura performs the first verse of the song, to which we see Garon visibly discomforted. Once the cutscene ends, Corrin starts to prepare for a sneak operation when Garon notices them and orders his soldiers to capture them, revealing that Garon was not deceived by the [[wikipedia:List of sports idioms#R|ring-in]]; after Elise shows concern for Corrin, and Corrin asks how Garon could have anticipated this. Garon states that he couldn't believe Corrin would willingly let Zola travel with them, revealing that Zola was behind the deception falling apart. Zola attempts to beg for mercy, hoping [[Leo]] could spare him and Corrin could be pardoned, only to be immediately killed by Garon, much to Elise's horror. Corrin calls him out for being heartless and using his own men for his selfish needs, and dispose them like it's nothing. Takumi suggests that the group go after Garon, to which Corrin states it's too risky as there are too many Nohrians, to which they state that they need to retreat and regroup. The battle begins at this point. | ||

Corrin and [[Silas]] attempt to reason with Xander, stating that Garon's dark ambition is the sole cause of this war and he must be stopped or both kingdoms with continue to suffer, but Xander declares that their words mean nothing and denounce them [[A Vow Upheld|both]] as traitors and dares Corrin to take him on in battle. At the start of turn 5, Azura points out the escape route Corrin is supposed to use to escape the area and tells them to hurry before they get overwhelm. | ||
Once the battle ends, Corrin states that | Once the battle ends, Corrin states that they believe they're safe where they've ended up, only for Xander to quickly catch up, telling Corrin that theu cannot escape from him; Xander once again scolds them for betraying Garon and their family, and express regret at once calling them his family and attempts to engage Corrin again, but Elise arrives to distract him and offer herself in their stead. Corrin begs her not to do this, but Azura suggests that Corrin and the rest of the army take advantage of the situation and run away. Xander warns Corrin they can't run forever and that he will always find them, because it is their destiny to face him. Over at the docks, Takumi states that he believes the army really has shaken the Nohrians this time, but Corrin states they're gonna have to settle the score with Xander once and for all and they got a lot of work to do before they'll be his equal in battle. Corrin goes to seek out Azura only to find her visibly tired; once Azura recovers a bit, she quickly changes the subject and states that Ryoma is still out there and leaves the scene, to Corrin's concern. | ||
