Story

Immediately after the end of Chapter 27, Garon reveals his dragon form. After destroying the Blazing Yato, the Avatar takes a hit from Garon to protect Takumi and Ryoma. As they lie wounded, they have a hallucination of them back in the Northern Fortress as they are awoken by Lilith, Flora, Xander, and Elise. Xander asks them if they remember what they were doing. The Avatar, whose mind was temporarily reverted to the start of the story, suddenly remembers that they were fighting King Garon. Thinking that they are dead, Xander asks if they want to stay dead or return back and fight. Hearing the voices of the Hoshidan army telling them to keep fighting spurs the Avatar back to life. However, they bid a final farewell to the specters of Flora, Lilith, Xander, and Elise. Returning to the world, the Yato is reforged and the Avatar prepares to fight King Garon one last time. Azura tells the Avatar that she will sing Lost in Thoughts All Alone to weaken him. Knowing that it may kill her, the Avatar tells her not to over do it. After a harsh battle, King Garon is taken down. As King Garon lays dying, he laments that he was long dead, though the Avatar does not understand the meaning behind his words.

Azura congratulates them, but she is out of breath. The Avatar realizes that she has overused her powers. As they plead to her to stay alive, Azura slowly dissolves into water. Looking at the Avatar, she asks to see them smile before she dies. Finally Azura expires, leaving no trace of her body. Grief stricken by the sheer number of lives lost during the war, the Avatar vows to carry on the promises they gave to them and restore peace to the world.

Back in Hoshido, Ryoma has taken the throne of Hoshido as its new king. At his coronation, Ryoma announces that they have made peace with Nohr, leaving the Avatar and the Hoshido siblings misty-eyed. Camilla and Leo also were in attendance. Still heartbroken by the deaths of Xander and Elise, they express concern for the Avatar who is still bearing the scar as well. Additionally, the Hoshido siblings are dealing with Azura's passing as well. Leo announces that he has taken the role of King of Nohr as Camilla does not want to run the kingdom herself. With the first sign of peace, the Hoshido siblings and the Avatar head to the festival in town. Taking a break from the festival, the Avatar wanders to the lake where they first met Azura. Suddenly, the Avatar can hear her song and sees a hallucination of her. Azura asks what the Avatar sees in the lake. As they look, they simply thank Azura for being a selfless person, but her visage disappears. Azura hopes that they will meet again one day, a sentiment that the Avatar shares. A few days later, the Hoshido siblings meet up back in the capital as Ryoma prays to Mikoto, saying that together, the Hoshido royal family will continue to bring peace to the world.

Subjective: The following part of this article is based upon the editor's personal experiences and opinions, and therefore may not be applicable for all readers.

This chapter takes place immediately after the end of Chapter 27, giving the player no chance to save. As the Endgame chapter, any level ups, stat growth, class reclassing, and lost units will not carry over after saving. Nevertheless, one should not be reckless in this chapter and prepare sufficiently, whether it is moving weapons around or replacing units if necessary, as failing will result in returning back to Chapter 27 again.

King Garon is a formidable boss and has an attack range of 1-2 and will move and attack, though he will wait until he has activated the four Dragon Vein points near him before doing so. After the first allied unit enters his range, he will begin to activate his Dragon Veins. Each point causes one fourth of the entire map to become blighted. Allied and enemy units standing on those areas will lose 10 HP each turn and King Garon will sap those hit points. If playing on higher difficulties, it is best to try and take out Garon in a single turn as not only will his attacks have moderate power behind them, but to ensure that he cannot capitalize on his blight regen. Gauge his power properly before attacking, but know that he take half damage from everyone except for the Avatar, whom deals 3/4 of his strength so long as they have the Blazing Yato equipped.

Alternatively, a player may wish to use a staff user and use the Entrap stave to forcibly warp Garon near your units. Ensure that everyone is near the said user so that he can be piled and killed in one turn. You may want to clear out the nearby enemy units before forcibly warping him to your location in the event that he somehow survives the attacks of your units.

  • Both English and Japanese name of this chapter are taken from the song Lost in Thoughts All Alone (if - Hitori Omou in the Japanese version).
