Hey guys, it's Kitsune Knight here and as you all can tell, we have ourselves a lovely episode planned for today, so buckle in for this midnight writing scene...and when I say that, I mean I'm writing the camp part before I go to bed, so yay... I'm probably not going to remember what I typed up here but, eh... Hope you all enjoy this though, nonetheless!

I started to wake up, recognizing the scales that my head rested on, I was on Minerva, Cherche's Wyvern. So I started to smile as I then started to remember yesterday's events, my smile faded quickly to say the least, and my eyes flew open. I saw that Cherche was looking at my chest, and rubbing it to see if those dreaded words would come out, and I honestly blushed as I wasn't expecting this.

(Y/N):"C-Cherche...what are you doing?" She then flinched and tried to get off of me, only to fall onto me as a result, and I groan from her laying on me. "Oww...still sore from that whip I guess."

Ch:"I am so sorry, (Y/N)...wait...whip? DID THEY WHIP YOU?!" Well shit, didn't mean to say that aloud, and now even Minerva is awake, and she uses her tail to move us both off of her and then she looks me dead in the eyes.

(Y/N):"Y-yeah...I was whipped and...used as if I was nothing more than just toy made for...pleasure..." I closed my eyes, as if I was expecting to be hit then. But instead, I was tackled by something. I opened my eyes in alarm and see Minerva above me, she's smelling me like crazy, as if trying to learn the scent of the person who did what they did to me, but my face was bright red due to where she was smelling. "M-Minerva, please stop..."

Ch:"Don't worry, (Y/N). She isn't going to do anything to you, she just wants to know who did this to you." She then let Minerva finish smelling me before she got off me and then helped me up then. "There you go, well shall we head on out? The rest of the Shepherds are waiting for us."

(Y/N):"Alright, Cherche. Let's get going then. And more importantly, let's get the Fire Emblem back as well!" She nods and thus we leave her tent, and eventually, everyone gets ready to head on out to our next destination as well.

-Das Walking Scene-

We were walking towards this Table thing...and along the way there, there was seemingly endless people traveling towards it.

C:"All these strange travelers... What's happening here?"

L:"Let's ask 'em! Um, excuse me, sir? ...Sir?"

Villager:"...the appointed...time...to the Dragon's...Table...our prayers...Grima..." Grima?! This isn't good at all, not at all...

L:"Riiiiight... I'll just be backing away slowly then..."

F:"Sire!"

C:"Frederick! Have the scouts returned?"

F:"Yes, milord, and with grim news. Validar has moved to a great alter to Grima known as the Dragon's Table. What's more, it seems all the Grimleal in Plegia are headed there as well. It's as if they're being drawn by some unseen force..."

C:"Any idea what it all means?"

F:"Who can say, sire? They speak only gibberish and plod on as if possessed."

C:"The cataclysm in Lucina's future... This shows all the signs of leading to it. Damn! This destiny is a stubborn business..."

Lu:"We cannot give up."

C:"And we will not. We make for this Dragon's Table, and quickly! Come, everyone!" With that, we rushed forth until we reached a small patch of desert where Risen were waiting for us along with Aversa and Validar.

Aversa:"The Ylisseans have finally caught up to us, milord."

Validar:"Delay them. But carefully... We must reclaim Robin's power."

Aversa:"Ah, yes. Don't worry, I'll take extra care with Daddy's special little girl."

C:"Validar!"

Validar:"Fools! Do you know where you've come?"

C:"Return the Fire Emblem now, and we can end this!"

Validar:"Aaah ha ha ha ha! You would...end this?"

C:"Yes, once and for all."

Validar:"My dear boy, we already know how this story ends - you and I both! And yet you rush here... Are you so eager to meet the fell dragon yourself? Or perhaps your own fatal destiny - you would have that realized first? Ha ha!"

C:"To hell with your destiny. I'll write a new ending."

Aversa:"Oh ho ho, so now you believe you can change fate? And here I thought your exalted sister had delusions of grandeur..."

C:"We've done it already."

Aversa:"Your victory over sad little Gangrel? Or perhaps Walhart's defeat? Those were meant to happen. They were preordained. You are just another fool in motley, capering on the stage!"

L:"But...what about Emmeryn!"

Aversa:"You changed only the method of her death. Either way, she was planted in the ground..."

F:"But that was Gangrel's will... Not yours... Not Validar's..."

Aversa:"You aren't listening. All of this - every word and action - has been orchestrated... Gangrel held the exalt in contempt, yes, so Validar and I used him. In life AND death. The king's demise threw Plegia intoc chaos. It drove people to Grima... Not their life force and rancor can be laid before the fell dragon en masse."

C:"You couldn't mean..."

Aversa:"It is call the Table for a reason, you naïve little man. It is where Grima feeds! The Grimleal have gladly offered themselves to him for ages. Even now, they pray for his return... Today the Table overflows with bounty, and their prayers will be answered!"

C:"I will never allow that to happen!"

Aversa:"But it already HAS happened in our future. This moment was set a millennium ago."

Lu:"How could anyone give their life willingly to that...thing? That monster!"

C:"I will stop you! I will stop Grima!"

Aversa:"Goodness! Now you're starting to sound like Walhart, the big bully... He intended to detroy Grima as well, you know. ...Our thanks, incidentally, for taking him off the stage for us."

C:"Rrgh... That's why you gave us your ships and treasure but no soldiers... Get rid of Walhart, but keep the faithful Plegians to set your god's Table..."

Validar:"Aversa, it is time. I must prepare."

Aversa:"As you command, Master."

C:"Validar! ...VALIDAR!" With that, Validar left to prepare Grima's dinner table...

Aversa:"Master Validar is not to be disturbed. But fear not, I have brought the Deadlords to keep you entertained. These 12 generals were great warriors in life...and even greater, now, in death! I would introduce them one by one, but well, as you'll see, they're not much for talk. Besides, you'll meet them all soon enough!" With that, the battle got underway against these 12 Deadlords as well as Aversa...this isn't going to be easy at all.

Though with a bit of hard work, we got the Deadlords weapons as our own and defeated Aversa... I say we, but that was all me, she got a good one slap with that Frying Pan to the face...she didn't even see me coming either, it felt good getting her with it. We left her unconscious on the floor.

Lu:"We have to stop Validar now! My future is upon us!"

C:"We will, Lucina. I swear to you - we will." With that, we rushed forward towards our next stop, the Dragon's Table.
