TheChalice of Beginnings (Japanese:始原の宝杯Chalice of beginnings) is an object that debuted in theFire Emblem: Three Houses expansionCindered Shadows. It is a chalice created by the goddess, and can supposedly resurrect the dead through a ritual called the Rite of Rising. The chalice plays an important role in the story ofCindered Shadows, being sought after byAelfric in order to reviveSitri,Byleth's deceased mother.

After completingCindered Shadows, the Chalice of Beginnings becomes available to use as a piece of equipment, negating anybonus damage against the wielder, while also granting them the ability to counter enemy attacks at any range.

History

The Chalice of Beginnings was created for use during the Rite of Rising which was conducted afterGarreg Mach Monastery was completed. The ritual consisted of theFour Apostles pouring their blood into the chalice to reviveSothis. However, the ritual failed, and anUmbral Beast was created instead. After the ritual's failure, the Four Apostles left the monastery, and the Chalice was sealed beneath the monastery, only to be opened through the combined power of the four Apostles'crests. Almost 1,000 years later,Aelfric found out about the chalice, and decided to use it in an attempt to bringSitri back to life. Through a scheme, he got theAshen Wolves-who bear the crests of the Four Apostles-to break the seal on the chalice, and used their blood to perform the ritual. During the ritual, he transformed into an Umbral Beast himself, and was slain during the battle. It is left unclear what happened to the Chalice of Beginnings after the battle.
