(The scene opens on Corrin, Silas, Elise, Azura, and Camilla standing together in Notre Sagesse)

Corrin: It took some doing, but we've finally arrived.

Silas: I'm just glad the ferry ride was alright.

Elise: Maybe things are finally looking up.

Corrin: We'll just have to see... I want to ask a few of the locals about the Rainbow Sage.

Azura: Perhaps we should start elsewhere... Look.

(The camera pans over to show Sevenfold Sanctuary)

Corrin: Mysterious...

Azura: Since he's the ruler of this land, I'm willing to bet he's up there.

Corrin: In that case, let's climb to the top. I don't see any Hoshidans anywhere. Maybe Father made a mistake.

Camilla: I don't know about that... It would be a good idea to investigate though.

Corrin: Let's hop to it then.

(The scene transitions to show the royals at the top of the mountain)

Corrin: That was an endurance test for sure...

Silas: I've certainly had better days.

Camilla: It'll all be worth it soon when we see the Rainbow Sage.

Elise: Alright. Let's do it!

(The scene transitions to the inside of the temple to show Kaze and Hinoka standing together)

Kaze : The Nohrian army has arrived.

Hinoka : It appears they're more skilled than I gave them credit for... However, we can't let our new allies fall. We must keep the Rainbow Sage and his people safe no matter what!

(The battle begins)

(Initiating combat against Azama)

Azama : Why must you resort to violence? No wonder everyone hates you.

(Corrin initiates combat with Azama)

Azama: You must be Lord Corrin. Lady Hinoka speaks of you often.

Corrin: What?

Azama : She often sings your praises, but I'm confused... Given her words, I never expected to see you attacking a defenseless monk. Maybe she was wrong about you...

(Azama is defeated)

Azama : I am loath to do so, but I must retreat...

(Initiating combat against Setsuna)

Setsuna : You've come a long way...

(Corrin initiates combat with Setsuna)

Setsuna : You're Lord Corrin, yes? I'm Setsuna... I'm Lady Hinoka's retainer... Nice to meet you.

Corrin: Polite even to the enemy...

Setsuna : You're the enemy? Even though you're her sibling? Huh.

Corrin: It... It's complicated.

Setsuna : Oh, well... Guess it's time for you to die now.

( Setsuna is defeated)

Setsuna : I lost. Oh, well... Guess I'll retreat for now.

(Initiating combat against Rinkah)

Rinkah : I am Rinkah, proud daughter of the Flame Tribe. I will not allow you to travel further!

(Corrin initiates combat with Rinkah)

Rinkah: I don't want to fight you, but it seems I have no choice.

Corrin: I owe you my life.

Rinkah : And I owe you mine.

Corrin: I wish it didn't have to be this way, but I can't back down now...

Rinkah : We understand each other perfectly. Enough talk. Prepare yourself!

(Rinkah is defeated)

Rinkah : Damn... I may be retreating now, but this isn't over!

(Initiating combat with Kaze)

Kaze : I am Kaze, a ninja of Hoshido... But enough pleasantries. To battle!

(Corrin initiates combat with Kaze )

Kaze : So, we meet again... I did not think we would be crossing paths once more... Unfortunately, the circumstances are not peaceful.

Corrin: I understand. Let's get this over with.

(Kaze is defeated)

Kaze : Such power... I must escape...

(Initiating combat against Hinoka)

Hinoka: I applaud you for making it this far, but your journey ends here!

(Corrin initiates combat with Hinoka )

Hinoka: We meet at last.

Corrin: Hinoka...

Hinoka : You really are fighting for Nohr... I had to see it with my own eyes. I spent so many years wishing I could be close to you, but here we are, so close, but so far apart.

Corrin: I'm sorry it had to be this way.

Hinoka : Stop. If you're so determined to fight, so be it. Come, Corrin. See if all that resolve is enough to take me down!

(Azura initiates combat with Hinoka )

Hinoka : Azura?! Is that you?!

Azura: Hello, Hinoka.

Hinoka : Thank Akiri you're safe. I was so worried about you. I'm sorry we couldn't save you. You must have been through a lot. Come back with me. I'll keep you safe.

Azura: I'm sorry... I cannot return.

Hinoka: What?!

Azura: It's true... I will never forget your kindness. I bear you no ill will, but I have chosen to follow Corrin. Please try to understand.

Hinoka: ...So be it.

(Camilla initiates combat with Hinoka )

Camilla: So, you're the infamous Princess Hinoka.

Hinoka : And you're Princess Camilla.

Camilla: I've always wanted to meet you... It's an honor.

Hinoka : Enough with the sugarcoated words. It's time to fight.

Camilla: Alright, if you insist. Let's get this over with.

(Hinoka is defeated)

HInoka: Forgive me, Hoshido... I wasn't... strong enough...

(After the battle, Corrin, Azura, Elise, and Camilla stand before Hinoka, Setsuna, Azama, Kaze, and Rinkah)

Camilla: The battle is over. Retreat now.

Hinoka : Damn it all! Everyone! Retreat! Leave the dead behind, at least for now.

Rinkah : That won't be necessary. We suffered no casualties. Many are injured, but they will recover.

Hinoka : ...Corrin! This was your doing, wasn't it?

Corrin: Linger here no longer. Run. Go.

Hinoka : ...Goodbye, Corrin. We will meet again.

(Hinoka, Setsuna, Azama, Kaze, and Rinkah retreat)

Camilla: You're too kind to let them all survive.

Corrin: Nohr is not a nation merely out for conquest. We understand mercy too. I'm tired of pointless murder. That's the only way to end this war.

Elise: I like that much better... I've seen enough bloodshed already.

Azura: All that's left to do is see the Rainbow Sage.

(The scene transitions to show Corrin, Elise, Camilla, and Azura standing before the Rainbow Sage)

Corrin: Are you... Are you the Rainbow Sage?

Rainbow Sage: I am.

Corrin: I heard you possess great power.

Rainbow Sage: I do.

Corrin: I... Pardon me if I sound selfish, but...

Rainbow Sage: You would like my help, yes?

Corrin: I would.

Rainbow Sage: Tell me, what do you want from this war?

Corrin: I want to end it and bring peace to both Hoshido and Nohr.

Rainbow Sage: Corrin, yes?

Corrin: That is me, yes.

Rainbow Sage: I would like to speak with you and your blue-haired companion alone.

Azura: Um... Alright.

Elise: Good luck!

Camilla: We'll prepare to leave.

(Elise and Camilla exit)

Azura: What is it you wanted?

Rainbow Sage: I have something for you both.

(The Rainbow Sage leads them into another room where he shows Yato and Safaia)

Rainbow Sage: These are the sacred weapons Yato and Safaia. They are for you.

Azura: We couldn't possibly—

Rainbow Sage: Though not yet.

Corrin: Not yet?

Rainbow Sage: You will know when the time comes to use their full power to evolve your spirits and minds.

Corrin: I don't understand...

Rainbow Sage: You will soon. For now, you must continue on as you have been.

Corrin: I... Alright. I trust you.

Azura: Where did they come from?

Rainbow Sage: They are from the fallen land surrounding Notre Sagesse. They have no bearers now, so I am passing them on.

Corrin: This is a great honor...

Rainbow Sage: Until the time comes to unlock their power, I want you to do what you believe is right. May your path be true.

Azura: Thank you.

Rainbow Sage: You don't need to thank me... Now, leave this place.

Corrin: Alright... Good day.

Rainbow Sage:

(Iago teleports inside the room as Azura and Corrin go to leave)

Corrin: Iago...!

Iago: You have done well so far, I suppose... However, you have made a grave mistake by allowing the Sage to live.

Corrin: He didn't need to die. I only did what I believed was right. Besides, I wasn't under the impression that—

Iago: Enough. I'll handle it myself.

(Iago pulls out a knife and strikes the Rainbow Sage down. He dies instantly)

Corrin: No!

Iago: I'll be seeing you at the palace, Corrin.

(Iago vanishes)

Corrin: No... This can't be... No...!

Azura: Corrin, I...

Corrin: Enough innocent people have already died! Why does this have to happen?!

Azura: Corrin, I understand that it's hard... This is not on your hands though. Iago is to blame.

Corrin: I should have done something... I should have... I...

Azura: Corrin. Listen to me. You didn't cause this. You had no way of knowing.

Corrin:

Azura: I know it's hard... You don't seem to want to talk now. Let's return to the ship. We should make for Nohr.

Corrin: Alright...

Azura: If you ever need me, I'll be here for you. Just say the word.

Corrin: Thank you, Azura.

Azura: It's my pleasure.

(Azura leaves)

Corrin: ...


I finished Conquest over on AO3 and now I feel really productive
