Ferdinand
(Officers Academy) Is it really over?
- Ferdinand: The history of the Empire spans 1185 years. And just like that, it ends. But the Hresvelg legacy could live on... When Edelgard assumed power, there were no other rightful heirs. She said that whoever takes the throne next should do so by the virtue of merit, not blood. And she truly meant what she said. At any rate... I feel that a huge hole has opened up in my heart. Who knows if it can ever be filled?
Linhardt
(Cathedral) All things must come to an end.
- Linhardt: As history proves, everything comes to an end eventually. I knew that all along, but it still came as a surprise. Those who slither in the dark... It's all so fascinating and strange. They must certainly have a long history of their own. And when they fall, that will come quickly too. Don't you think? Heh, that almost sounded like a prophecy there. Am I spooking you yet?
Caspar
(Fishing Pond) Father...
- Caspar: He's dead... My father's dead... I'm OK though. Really. I was ready for it. He was a general in the Imperial army, after all. Minister of Military Affairs... He gave his own life so the Empire's soldiers wouldn't have to lose theirs. That's a fight that only he could take on. He was such a tough guy. I fought side by side with you this whole time. But did I ever get any stronger? Will I ever be as strong as my father?
Bernadetta
(Greenhouse)
- Bernadetta: With Edelgard gone, maybe Fódlan will finally find some peace. That's all well and good, but, um... She was also the one to put my father under house arrest, so now he's been released, and he's taken charge of House Varley. I can't handle it! I can't deal with him! Please, you have to do something!
- Byleth:
- Choice 1: How about we exile him? (Relationship with Bernadetta goes up)
- Choice 2: We can put him back under arrest.
- Bernadetta: Thank you so much!
Dorothea
(Officers Academy) Did you hear about Count Bergliez?
- Dorothea: So, the moment we defeat Edie, the nobles cozy up to the Alliance and the Church... That lot really does think only of themselves, and no one else. But then there's Count Bergliez. He used to be Minister of Military Affairs... He sacrificed his own life so that all the soldiers and officers who fought could be given quarter... When I heard that... I don't know... that simple act of humanity... I couldn't help it. I burst into tears. You know Count Bergliez is Caspar's father, right? I can't even imagine how Caspar must feel about it.
Petra
(Cathedral) The time is still too soon...
- Petra: The Empire has broken in... in smithereens. Now it is possible for me to go back to Brigid. But... I cannot choose that choice. The time is still too soon for that. We must be stopping the evil for everyone in Fódlan. We will be fighting until the end of it!
Felix
(Training Grounds) The boar...
- Felix: I thought that after the Empire fell, the boar might finally be avenged... But something dark is certainly lurking in the shadows - an organization behind the Empire. We'll have to take care of them if the boar... if Dimitri is to rest in peace.
Ashe
(Entrance Hall) That's the way history is...
- Ashe: We've all heard the legend of Nemesis, the King of Liberation. But now Lady Rhea is saying Nemesis was just some kind of thief. Those two descriptions are totally at odds. Which version's correct? I don't know what to think. But I guess that's the nature of history. I wonder what the generations that come after us will say about the battle we're about to fight.
Sylvain
(Training Grounds) There's no end to war...
- Sylvain: This war might be over but not war in general. Human beings thrive on conflict. We can't get enough of it. I don't know when, but you know someday another war will begin.
- Byleth:
- Choice 1: Even so... (Relationship with Sylvain goes up)
- Choice 2: You're probably right on that.
- Sylvain:
- Response 1: Heh heh... That's the way it is, right?
- Response 2: Yeah, but the fight is still worth it.
- Sylvain: War may always come back but so will peace. And peace is what we fight for.
Mercedes
(Cathedral) At least she's safe now...
- Mercedes: Lady Rhea still seems weak... but at least she's safe now. I'm praying that she'll be well as soon as possible. Goddess... I beg you... Protect Lady Rhea!
Annette
(Dormitory - 1F) We must put a stop to it...
- Annette: Finally, that awful war is over. Everyone lost something, and everyone had to make sacrifices... But maybe we can put a stop to all of this pain and loss now. Let's hurry to Shambhala, Professor! We have to defeat them if we ever want to see a world without war.
Ingrid
(Dormitory - 1F) I hope Lady Rhea will be all right.
- Ingrid: Is it really prudent to bring Lady Rhea on our upcoming expedition? It would be best not to have her doing anything strenuous, considering how long she was confined...
- Byleth:
- Choice 1: It's her decision, ultimately. (Relationship with Ingrid goes up)
- Choice 2: I feel similarly.
- Ingrid: There are still many in Fódlan who are seeking Lady Rhea's salvation. For their sake, we cannot put her in harm's way.
Alois
(Reception Hall) We will avenge Captain Jeralt!
- Alois: You've done it. You did it. You crushed the Empire, and rescued Lady Rhea. I'm sure the captain is proud of you right now. As am I, of course! I'm as proud as if I'd done it myself!
- Byleth:
- Choice 1: Let's not just yet.
- Choice 2: We still have opponents left to fight.
- Alois:
- Response 1:
- Response 2: Sorry. I didn't mean to overdo it.
We still have Monica's group... Those who killed the captain. We'll knock 'em down so hard that they can't get back up!
Catherine
(Second Floor) We Lady Rhea...
- Catherine: We rescued Lady Rhea! I can hardly express my joy. But now we know about a new foe, who intends to bring her harm. In time, we'll realize the peaceful world that Lady Rhea has always hoped for. I'll have to keep that in mind when I'm fighting.
Mission: Stand Strong at Shambhala
On the World Map
Relying on a map entrusted to them by Hubert, the resistance army sets their sights on the base belonging to those who slither in the dark. Beyond its entrance, they are met by a sprawling underground city.
Event: An Underground World
Shambhala, the Underground City | Daytime
- Flayn: To think there is such a vast space hidden beneath the ground. How very creepy.
- Linhardt: Hmm, the atmosphere here is very different from the Holy Mausoleum or the Holy Tomb. Look at the shapes and the light...
- Caspar: It's too strange... It's all really old, but you get the feeling that it's also...new? I don't understand it.
- Petra: This decorating is not of Fodlan... What is the meaning here?
- Dorothea: I hate the look of things in here. Is this some kind of city? I would never, ever live here.
- Bernadetta: Living underground...all safe and isolated... It sounds really... Um! Really awful!
- Ferdinand: An underground city hiding those who slither in the dark. I would not mind finishing up here and returning to the surface with haste.
- Seteth: Let us search for a way to descend further still. We should survey our surroundings carefully.
(Seteth, Flayn, and the Black Eagles advance further)
- Rhea: …
- Byleth:
- Choice 1: Something on your mind?
- Choice 2: Are you not feeling well?
- Rhea: No. It is simply… We must defeat those who slither in the dark, no matter what happens. But if my conjecture is correct, the one who they will wish to kill the most…
(Rhea turns to Byleth.)
- Rhea: Is you, dear child.
- Byleth: Why me?
- Rhea: They are aware that you can use the Sword of the Creator. Your body houses the same power they once bestowed upon Nemesis. That is why I must protect you, no matter what. Even if I must die to do so...
- Byleth: I don't understand.
- Rhea: Somewhere in your heart, I believe you do understand. You must at least have your suspicions. There is something I have not yet told you, dear child... I swear to illuminate you once this awful battle has concluded. And at the same time... I will offer my apologies to you. I must, because...when you learn the truth, you will also learn what you are, and how you were born into this world. It will be a hard truth to hear. When the time comes, I hope you are prepared for it...
(scene fades out)
During Battle
Before Battle
- Thales: For thousands of years, we have existed underground, living on only that we might someday see our vengeance realized. Here and now, that vengeance is finally within our grasp. There is but one thing left to do. Destroy them! Damn those who stand with that arrogant goddess to oblivion, away from the world of the living!
Player Phase One
- Thales: Now is the time. Remove the binding spell of Titanus. Let their metal bodies be drenched in blood!
- Seteth: What is that?!
(camera pans to a Titanus)
- Rhea: Demonic Beasts… No, I think not. They appear to have no will of their own. Someone must be controlling them.
- Thales: Initiate all that remain! We must advance our preparations!
Enemy Phase One
- Thales: Viskam has been activated? Increase output gradually, depending on the amount of magical energy charged. I don't care if we destroy Shambhala, as long as our goals are fulfilled!
If Assassins appear
- Seteth: They're trying to take something out of here. We should capture them before they escape.
If Pittacus is defeated
- Rhea: Those awful weapons have been stopped. They were being controlled from that facility!
If Bias is defeated
- Seteth: Finally, they've stopped! That should make things easier.
If Pittacus and Bias are defeated
- Thales: You!
- Rhea: That is the leader of those who slither in the dark. We must go after him with all our might!

Movie: Courage and Tragedy
(Scene shows Thales injured backing away from Byleth and Rhea and looking with an angered face and looks at them.)
- Thales: You will never get to enjoy your victory.
(Thales then knells down and activate a switch in the floor much to Rhea's shock.)
- Rhea: It can't be...
As Thales is kneeling on the floor the switch's light grows brighter and then he looks at them.)
- Thales: For all Agarthans... Let there be light!
(Scene transitions to outside of Shambhala as a javelin of light is descending down on Shambhala, Scene transitions back to Shambhala as the interior collapses as Byleth and Rhea escape but Thales is still knelling on the switch, Scene transitions back to Byleth and Rhea as they look up at the sky above the broken ground at Shambhala as another Javelin approaches Rhea jumps out of the crater turning into her dragon form and use her power to destroy the javelin and dodges the explosion and flies from another javelin and destroys another javelin but another javelin injures Rhea as green blood drops from her head, scene transitions to Byleth looking at the sky at Rhea and the explosion explodes and the citys crumbles.)
- Agarthan Soldier: It's coming down!
(Three Agarthan soilders run away from the rumble and scene transitions to outside of Shambhala as smoke is coming out from Shambhala's destruction, scene transitions to the interior as Byleth unharmed looks around at the debris and then scenes transitions to Thales dead from a falling piece of debris. Then Byleth looks and gasps as they see Rhea on the ground knocked out then Byleth picks up Rhea and then she looks at Byleth smiling and then closes her eyes.
