(The party is walking near the border of Windmire. The royals are leading the group)
Ryoma: We're practically there... Windmire.
Azura: The war will be over soon. King Garon will be just a bit deeper into the capital.
Hinoka: I can't wait for it to be over... It's gone on far too long and seems almost pointless.
Takumi: We haven't seen the king since our time in Nestra. He was more than a little violent back then. Maybe he'll be a bit more tame on his own turf.
Hinoka: It doesn't matter either way. I can't wait to run him through my lance.
Corrin: I... I must say, I'm feeling a bit better about running into the Nohrian siblings. Leo made it sound like they were all hesitant to fight us. Maybe we can turn them over to our side.
Azura: Their help should make this war easier.
Sakura: Your connection to them has helped us thus far... Elise was able to help us escape Nestra...
Corrin: Sakura, I must say, you seem rather sympathetic towards the Nohrians. I don't mean to be rude, but I didn't expect it.
Sakura: I-I know now who killed our father... I don't have a problem with the everyday people. They aren't the ones who wronged us for so many years...
Ryoma: After all those years of arguing, you would expect us to hate all Nohrians for the things done by their country. However, one thing this war has shown me is that not all of them are horrible. It's funny how things work out that way.
Sakura: The regular civilians are trying to live. They aren't to blame.
Hinoka: My main goal at this point is just to destroy that Iago man. Those who aren't aggressors can continue about their lives.
Azura: I hope we can help the Nohrian siblings though. They don't seem to hold any grudges against us. I could sense the sincerity behind Leo's words during our last encounter.
Takumi: Wait, did you hear that?
Corrin: Hear what?
Takumi: I could have sworn I heard somebody's voice...
Corrin: I didn't hea-
?: So we meet again, Corrin.
Corrin: Ah!
(Camilla comes into view)
Corrin: Camilla! I was hoping we would run into you!
Camilla: Hmph. You sure are confident, aren't you?
Corrin: You don't need to act like this. I know you don't want to fight us. It doesn't need to be this way. It's going to be okay.
Camilla: You can't fool me with your honeyed words. It's time for the battle to begin. I cannot let you enter Windmire, no matter what bond we once shared.
Corrin: This isn't you! Come on, talk to us!
Camilla: We have no more time for talking. It's time to end this.
(The battle begins. The map is the same as chapter twenty-three from the game, but it's designed to be much darker, taking place outside on the regular streets of Nohr)
(Arthur is fought in battle)
Arthur: I don't know who you are, but you must tell us what has happened to our princess!
(Corrin initiates combat with Arthur)
Arthur: You must be Corrin.
Corrin: That would be me. Who am I speaking to?
Arthur: I am a hero of justice intent on returning Lady Elise to us!
Corrin: What? Where is she?
Arthur: That is none of your business! Begone, foul enemy!
(Arthur is defeated)
Arthur: A hero... Falls... I must retreat! For Lady Elise!
(Effie is fought in battle)
Effie: You will return Lady Elise to us now!
(Corrin initiates combat with Effie)
Effie: You're Corrin, aren't you?
Corrin: I am.
Effie: You must be the one who took Lady Elise!
Corrin: Elise? Has something happened to her?
Effie: You know what happened! You will pay for your actions!
(Effie is defeated)
Effie: Damn it all...
(Selena is fought in battle)
Selena: I may have gone easy on you last time, but the gloves are coming off now! Prepare yourself!
(Corrin initiates combat with Selena)
Selena: So we meet again.
Corrin: I remember you from Cheve!
Selena: Don't take this personally, but Lady Camilla has instructed me to fight you. I suppose you can call it a blessing that she told me not to kill you though.
Corrin: I knew it...
Selena: But that's enough talk! Goodbye!
(Lilith initiates combat with Selena)
Lilith: Selena...
Selena: I see you're still with Lord Corrin.
Lilith: I am... I'm fulfilling my master's duty.
Selena: I don't want to fight you... Stay safe, will you? I won't have him getting pissed off and killing me for this.
Lilith: I wish you the best, even if we are meant to be enemies.
(Selena is defeated)
Selena: Damn it! Not fair!
(Beruka is fought in battle)
Beruka: Under Lady Camilla's orders, you must die.
(Corrin initiates combat with Beruka)
Beruka: Lady Camilla wants you to come back to Nohr. Why do you still avoid her?
Corrin: I simply can't return to Nohr. Tell her I'm sorry.
Beruka: You can tell her yourself when the battle is done. In the meantime though, we must fight.
(Beruka is defeated)
Beruka: I have... I have failed...
(Camilla is fought in battle)
Camilla: Step aside. Corrin will return to me.
(Corrin initiates combat with Camilla)
Corrin: Camilla, I know you don't want to fight me. I don't want to fight you either. You can join us.
Camilla: I have no choice, Corrin. You have no idea what life is like in that palace.
Corrin: You don't have to endure it anymore! Come with me!
Camilla: ...Goodbye, Corrin.
(Hinoka initiates combat with Camilla)
Camilla: So you must be Corrin's new older sister.
Hinoka: I was always their older sister.
Camilla: ...
Hinoka: It doesn't matter. Let's just get this over with.
(Azura initiates combat with Camilla)
Azura: How many times must we fight?
Camilla: I do not know...
Azura: It's because of you that I stand here today. I simply can't bring myself to hurt you.
Camilla: I don't want to hurt you either... I refuse to end your life after saving it so many years ago.
Azura: Then join our side in this battle!
Camilla: I... I cannot...
Azura: ...
(Camilla is defeated)
Camilla: I... I cannot believe this...
(After the battle, the royals stand around Camilla)
Corrin: Camilla, I want to hear the truth from you. What's really going on?
Camilla: I...
Corrin: You can talk to us. I heard it from Leo. You've grown depressed and don't want to fight.
Camilla: I have no choice... I must fight. Father commands it. I need to defend the land I was born to.
Corrin: I can tell you're lying. I want you to talk to me. Please. I want you to join our side of the battle. You don't want to fight and neither do I.
Camilla: ...Leo told you a lot more than he should have.
Corrin: So, you admit it?
Camilla: I do. I don't want to fight for Father anymore. I've noticed a change in him since our last battle. He's no longer the man he once was... I scarcely liked him to begin with, but I was... I was almost deluding myself into thinking he was a good person. He's changed severely in the past few years, growing even worse than before. I can't fight for him further. I want to get away from it.
Corrin: Have the others noticed it?
Camilla: Xander hasn't brought it up, but I believe he can see it. Leo knows as well. As for Elise... Well...
Corrin: What about her?
Camilla: She's gone.
Corrin: What?!
Camilla: She's run away. It's for this reason I can't join you. I need to find her. I need to bring her home.
Corrin: That's awful...
Ryoma: Your brother mentioned before that she was quietly considering it.
Hinoka: She finally did it...
Camilla: As much as I want to leave, I can't until I know she's safe. I will allow you to pass through peacefully for now though.
Corrin: If we see her, we'll be sure to keep her safe for your sake.
Camilla: Thank you. Until next time.
(Camilla walks away)
Takumi: I have to say, your pacifistic ways are helping us out a lot.
Corrin: I suppose I just have a way of getting people to cooperate.
Azura: We should press on and keep our eyes peeled. If we find Elise, we'll need to keep her safe. At the very least, we know we have two allies within the palace of Nohr. That should make the final battle much easier.
Sakura: The war will be over soon... We have two of the four Nohrian siblings on our side rooting for us. I'm sure Princess Elise will be happy to join us too.
Corrin: I agree... Everything is going much better than I expected.
Hinoka: Let's keep going. The war may be growing nearer to a close, but we aren't there yet.
Ryoma: I agree. The greatest battles are still ahead of us, so we must be ready.
Corrin: Then we shouldn't wait. Let's press on.
I hate the chapter character limit on here. I have to cut every late game chapter title short. It's a tragedy.
