Fire Emblem Fates Rewrite

(C) Chapter Twenty-One: Spectre

(The scene opens with the royals walking near a village a few days later. Nyx is with them. Nobody is speaking)

Camilla: Corrin?

Corrin: Yeah?

Camilla: I'm worried about you.

Corrin: There's no need to worry. I'm fine.

Leo: You've barely said anything since Lilith...

Corrin: I've had a lot to think about. That's all. Let's drop it.

Nyx: ...

Xander: I don't want you holding all this in. You can talk to us.

Corrin: I know that, but I don't want to talk right now. I want to go into action. I refuse to let Lilith's sacrifice be in vain. I want to corner Iago and—

Elise: Corrin! Look over there!

(Elise points to a faction of Faceless breaking apart from the army to head to the nearby village)

Corrin: I have to go make sure those people are alright!

Xander: Corrin, stop! What will Father do when he sees you're gone?!

Corrin: He'll just have to deal with it, alright?! I'm not going to let anybody else die!

(Corrin leaves)

Azura: I need to make sure they don't get into any trouble...

(Azura leaves)

Elise: We can't just let them get into any trouble, right?

Camilla: Come on... I doubt Father will miss us if we're quick. The army isn't moving quickly right now anyways.

(The other royals leave)

Nyx: ...

(Nyx follows them. The scene changes to show Mozu with her mother)

Mozu : Mother! Come on, we need to get out of here!

Old Woman: Mozu, I—

(The Faceless strikes the woman down)

Mozu : No! Mother!!

(Corrin appears)

Corrin: Damn it! We're too late!

(Azura appears)

Azura: Wait... Over there! It's a young woman!

Corrin: If there's a survivor, there's a reason for me to fight. Let's save that girl!

(The battle begins. Due to her late join time, Mozu is a pre-promoted Master of Arms)

(Corrin talks to Mozu)

Corrin: Hey! Are you okay?

Mozu : Y-Yes... Who are you?

Corrin: My name is Corrin... What's your name?

Mozu: I'm Mozu...

Corrin: You seem to be holding up pretty well, Mozu...

Mozu : I-I knew war was coming, so I started training to protect Mother... But she...
