By the time of {{FE13}}, this weakened '''Falchion''' (Japanese: {{hover|封剣ファルシオン|Fūken Farushion}} ''Sealed Sword Falchion'') was inherited by [[Chrom]], Ylisse's prince, and used in his wars against [[Plegia]], [[Valm]] and [[The Grimleal (cult)|the Grimleal]]; its full power was unsealed by [[Naga]] herself to facilitate Grima's defeat, transforming it into the '''[[Exalted Falchion]]'''.  A second time-displaced incarnation of Falchion, dubbed the '''[[Parallel Falchion]]''', was brought back by Chrom's daughter [[Lucina]] from her disastrous future.

An identical but different Falchion exists on [[Valentia]], forged by the dark [[god]] [[Duma]] for King [[Rudolf]] to use to imprison the earth goddess [[Mila]].  This Falchion eventually became the property of [[Alm]], who used it to slay Duma.
