Plot

Entering the Nohrian castle, there is only one person standing between the Avatar and King Garon; Prince Xander. The two agree to a single-combat duel and Xander completely dominates the fight. However, as he swings his blade to finish off his former sibling, a tragedy occurs.

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 can be dealt with in a relatively quickly or long and dragged out depending on the player's desires. The sole mission objective is to defeat Xander, who is facing the Avatar in single combat. On Normal and Hard mode, Xander will not attack the Avatar (unless the player takes too long), but will retaliate back when attacked. On Lunatic however, Xander will immediately attack the Avatar.

If your Avatar is sufficiently strong, they can possibly finish off Xander in as little as a single turn or two. If your Avatar cannot do so, you can have your units defeat the General guarding the door to the dueling chamber and then pick the door open, allowing your units to swarm and defeat Xander. In the meantime, ensure that the Avatar can survive a turn or two until you can make that happen. Otherwise, you can fight out the map and slowly gather EXP from defeating various enemy soldiers. If planning on doing so, have the Avatar simply avoid initiating battle and have healing items ready in their inventory or in the convoy. Having the Dragonstone equipped also raises the Avatar's defenses which may prolong their survival.

Trivia

  • At the end of the chapter, while Xander is dying of his wounds, he tells the Avatar that "in another world, we could have been fighting together." This could be a reference to the Conquest and Revelations paths.
