Author's notes: Alright, another scenario to take into consideration.

Guest reviewer: That one was actually a decent idea. Too bad it's already uploaded so I can't put that in.

Disclaimer: I don't own Nintendo, Fire Emblem Fates, or any of the characters.

Corrin is in his room with Queen Mikoto. Sakura and Hinoka were saved from the faceless (this is set at the end of chapter 4)

Mikoto: Welcome back, Corrin! This is your old room.

Corrin: And... What is this?

Mikoto: Oh! That's a picture you drew when you were a little boy. This is your father, this is me, and that's you. So cute!

Corrin: (sigh) What to do now?

Continue talking about the room

Ask a favor

Ask about how I was kidnapped

Agree, this stuff is SO adorable!

Corrin: Queen Mikoto, I know this may be abrupt, but can I ask a favor?

Mikoto: You may, what is it?

Corrin: You know how you cast a magic spell that makes soldiers lose the will to fight.

Mikoto: Yes, what about it. I will never take it down, if that is what you wish.

Corrin: No! Just the opposite. Just because I've spent so much time in Nohr doesn't mean I'm infected with Nohrian! In fact, I've thought of a way to make the spell work on the faceless.

Mikoto: (gushing) What? Tell me, tell me, tell me!

Corrin: Simple, make the area in which the field has an effect surround Hoshido and Nohr. If the Nohrians have no will to fight in their own kingdom, their mages will lose the will to produce faceless.

Mikoto: YES! How did I not think of that? I'll do it right away! See you in about half an hour. (running away)

Corrin: I guess I know where I got my "take control" attitude from, and my merciful intentions.

The sound of concrete falling echoes through the castle.

Corrin: Mother, are you OK? I guess I should check...

Mikoto is standing in front of a large pile of rubble. She has a few bruises and is clearly in pain, but she seems happy anyway.

Corrin: Mother! Are you hurt?

Mikoto: And butterfingers strikes again. I tried just adding more and more powerful gems to make the field larger... And the structure couldn't handle it. I guess I'll have to build another one before Nohr notices.

Corrin: I'm happy to help too! Maybe if we use some stronger building materials...

Mikoto: Even if it is the only good the Nohrians have ever done, at least they have let you embrace your natural smarts.

Corrin: Anyway, where is the nearest quarry I can use?...

Mikoto: Right here inside the palace. This isn't the first time this has happened.

Corrin: Huh? Well, at least we were prepared for this blunder... Oh, shoot! I dropped my sword. Well, I guess I won't have any need for it anymore. Especially as it probably broke...

Mikoto: Well, we mustn't leave a trip hazard lying around like that. We can always put it in a souvenirs case to remind us of how we got you back!

Corrin: Great idea. Anyway, where is this quarry you speak of?

Kagero: I saw the anti-fighter building collapsing! Are you OK?

Mikoto: Yes. I could do with all the help I can get, though. This thing won't rebuild itself.

Kagero: I shall now summon the army. If you need help, our forces are more than happy to offer it. Also, what happened?

Mikoto: I was hoping to expand the range into Nhor, so they would lose the will to produce the faceless. It was Corrin's idea. However, I didn't foresee that the magic stones would be so heavy that the structure would collapse. Oops...

Kagero: With your permission, I should be able to give the order.

Mikoto: Yes please.

Kagero: I shall do so right away (vanishes)

Mikoto: Well, back to that sword. It's probably down on the stairs there.

Corrin: So it is.

Mikoto: And here is the souvenirs case. I reminder that, no matter what, you will always return.

Corrin: I guess it's fitting that it bent into a boomerang shape then.

Mikoto: Yes. Did you drop it like that on purpose, because it looks like a piece of art.

Corrin: No. I was just worried that you had hurt yourself when accidentally demolishing your building.

About a day later

Azura: Your magesty... I don't know why, but. I feel scared. I'm scared there might be an invasion from a third kingdom.

Mikoto: There is no need to worry. They will end up remaining peaceful the instant they enter.

Azura: Well, I would prefer it if you expanded the field further. Make it so it reaches the bottom of the bottomless canyon! The furthest part of the waters. You should use my pendant.

Mikoto: Thank you. I'll just put it in here and... Done!

Corrin: And no mishaps. Brilliant.

Ryoma: Corrin, you seem to have the Yato.

Corrin: WHAT THE- Um, I guess I will just have to find another souvenirs case.

Ryoma: I guess I will just have to ask Orochi what this means... Orochi!

Orochi: If you need a divination, I'm sorry. I... Just don't know what is going on. I just got a super weird combination of cards. I'm going to have to look up the original tables on this, as I don't see any mention of it in the archives. I thought it was just a combination that you just couldn't get: Darkness Jack, Storm King, Change 6, Light Ace, Change 3, Light 4, Darkness 4, Balance 2, the wild card, Change 10, then finally Light Queen. Everything up to the last three symbolize an important choice, with major sacrifice and regret regardless of the outcome. I can only assume that fate was for Corrin. However, the wild card often means fate has changed unexpectedly. The 10 of change only supports this more. Although I have no idea why I ended up with light queen of all things.

Corrin: Maybe because I, as the person who was going to make the choice, threw a wrench into the future by thinking of making a stronger hive mind preventing people from fighting. As for the light Queen, that could be because Mikoto was the first to stop procrastinating and build it!

Orochi: Oh, maybe I won't need a visit to the archives, if we have a portable knowledge fortress standing in front of us.

Corrin: I admit, I get my a lot of my tactics from Elise and Leo.

Azura: Well, the building looks finished!

Garon's palace

Garon: (Groans of decreasing discomfort) There is a deep... Resentment in me. Tell Xander to call off his troops. We are to stop our invasion of Hoshido.

Beruka: That would have happened even if you hadn't ordered it. All of our soldiers have lost the will to fight. Even Peri, who loves nothing more than to kill, has put up her weapons.

Garon: I admit, I have no will to continue this war either. I don't know what sorcery this is, but I at least like it. I feel so much more comfortable without the ability to kill. I can only hope Hoshido feels the same.

Beruka: I guess Corrin's sudden display of mercy must have moved us all.

Garon: Y-yes. He was very determined to stop me. Thanks, Corrin. I hope you live a happy life in Hoshido. However, I must pay for my own sins. Send a message to Hoshido that I am relinquishing control of Nhor to Queen Mikoto

Beruka: WHAT?! Are you sure? Well, orders are orders...

Mozu's village

Mozu: That's the last of the faceless. And just when I was getting good at hunting them, too...

Old woman: Well, we sould celebrate the end of this madness.

Mozu: Yes! The children have stopped fighting as well. All the reason to celebrate we have ever had.

Xander's army

Xander: I... Don't know what to do. I've just not got the will to fight. What has gotten into me?

Peri: Anyone for a game of tag?

Xander: Even the sociopath refuses to kill. Ugh. OK, you're it!

Peri: Tag! No, I'm not.

The invisible army

Invader: …

Invader: …

They retreat.

Queen Mikoto's palace

Mikoto: I guess this peace will last for my whole life. This is so wonderful.

Azura: It's better. As my pendant is in there too, this peace will continue, even if just the one of us is alive.

Corrin: And noting the lack of war, I'm sure it will last for decades, or even centuries to come.

And Corrin lives in Hoshido. Thus, the story is prevented. Oops...
