It has been exactly two years since Corrin and Kamui were joint King and Queen of Valla; Ryoma as King of Hoshido and Xander as King of Nohr, and so far, everything went smoothly. No war, no battles, absolutely nothing.

"Hey, Brother, is it me or do you think that after two years things became... well... boring?" Kamui asked, clearly she'd missed fighting and sparring against her siblings, whether they are step or adopted ones. "It's not just you, it's been bothering me, too." Corrin sighed.

"I do wonder how Big Brother Xander is doing..." Kamui wondered. "How about we pay a visit to both kingdoms? Like, you go to Nohr to visit Xander, while I go and visit Ryoma in Hoshido. Then, in the next few weeks, we swap." Corrin suggested. "Sure, I really do miss everyone from Nohr." Kamui reminisced. "Same here, but for me, it's Hoshido." Corrin chuckled. "Milord, would you allow Gunter and I to look after Valla?" Flora, the Cold as Ice Maid, volunteered. "If you wouldn't mind, Flora. Thank you." Corrin answered with a nod. "We'll be getting ready to depart in a few days time." Kamui added.

A few days later...

"It's time to go now, Lord Corrin!" Felicia ordered. "Allow me to join you in your visit to Nohr, Lady Kamui." Jakob insisted. "Thank you." Both Corrin and Kamui nodded in agreement. "This is it now, Sister. I shall see you again. Take care of yourself." Corrin smiled. "You too, Brother." Kamui smiled back. The two shook hands and gave each other a brotherly/sisterly hug, and then the two parted ways, with Corrin and Felicia heading towards the Path of Hoshido, and Kamui and Jakob heading towards the Path of Nohr.

In the Kingdom of Hoshido, before Corrin arrives...

"Ryoma, I'll be going out for archery practice." The youngest prince of Hoshido, known as Takumi, reported to his older brother. Ryoma nodded, "Stay safe, brother." And with that, Takumi headed out into the forest.

"Whew, it's been so long since we've been out at war with Nohr and Valla..." Takumi talked to himself as he strolled down to his usual practice area. "And it feels like forever since I have been doing archery practice. But I need to get stronger, way stronger! More than my siblings, anyway..." As soon as he arrived, he got ready with his archery practice. 'I hope that tomato-prince doesn't come out and lash out a fight with me... Yes, we may be friends now, but I do feel a bit uneasy...' he thought as he was about to pull the bowstring. Not long when he released his arrow, a 'whoosh' sound is heard. Takumi turned round, only to see a calming blue portal appearing out of nowhere. Inside that mentioned portal, a girl with dirty-blonde hair appeared. She dons a white sleeveless tank top and navy blue shorts. Her neck is surrounded with a normal blue scarf, all have yellow trimmings. She also wears navy shorts and red fingerless gloves, with her fingertips being covered in metallic bits and has black knee high laced boots. As soon as the mysterious figure got out of her portal, she collapsed.

Witnessing this scene, Takumi had a debate in his mind. 'I want to help her, but I don't exactly know who she is and I'd feared that she is trying to start up a war against our kingdom...' he thought. The wild card knelt down, having decided to aid her and ask what was happening.

"Ugh..." the unknown girl coughed. Takumi rushed to her side. "Hey... are you alright?" he asked. To his surprise, the girl opened her dull grey eyes, then they turned into charcoal black. "What... How... did I get there...?" she questioned the Prince of Hoshido. "Your eyes... They're rainbow, aren't they...?" He whispered. The girl nodded. 'He seems familiar... do I exactly know him?' she thought. "Here, I'll help you get to Castle Shirasagi. You'll get your wounds treated." Takumi offered to help the young girl get up, hanging her right arm around his shoulder and then walk straight to the castle.

"Sakura! We need help here." Takumi called. The pink-haired princess hurried over to her second older brother. "Takumi? W-who's that?" Sakura asked. "I... I don't know but she is wounded very badly. Please, treat her." he insisted. "I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused you... and I didn't mean to interrupt your archery practice." the girl coughed a little, her voice sounded guilty, and her eyes turned from charcoal black to an oceanic blue. "No, it's fine. What's important is for you to get treated." Takumi explained. The blond hair girl nodded and was taken to the treatment room, along with Sakura.
