- Main article:
Days Lost/Script
After defeatingArete,Corrin pushes forward into Castle Valla. There, they fall into a trap and encountersMikoto, who claims to retain her free will as a puppet ofAnankos. Corrin tries to attack Mikoto, refusing to believe in Anankos' trickery, but stops when Mikoto does not defend herself. Corrin decides to believe Mikoto and Mikoto warns them of a trap-filled maze ahead. Shortly after telling Corrin this, Mikoto vanishes. Corrin eventually hearsAzura's singing from another part of the room and finds her. They tell her about what Mikoto had told them earlier.
However, this is a ruse to get Corrin to lower their guard, and they are forced to battle and kill her. Before the battle starts, Mikoto tells Corrin and their party that there are a set of two doors in each room; the blue ones are safe, while the red ones damage all deployedunits. If the player defies Mikoto's advice and opens a red door, Mikoto will appear disappointed, but nonetheless encourages Corrin and their party to continue. At the final set of doors, Mikoto tries to drop the party's guard by telling them that the red door is safe. If the player follows this suggestion, all units are dropped to 1 HP and Mikoto is happy that this means they will all die together. Disregarding this suggestion prompts Mikoto's surprise that Corrin saw through her ruse and Corrin explains that they were suspicious about Mikoto's manner of speech; Mikoto reasons that if Corrin and their party die, they can forever be reunited in the service of Anankos.
After Mikoto is defeated, she truly regains her free will and thanks her children, who are depressed and horrified to lose their mother again. Before her death, Mikoto reveals to Corrin that they are Vallite royalty and thatArete is her older sister, making Corrin and Azura cousins. As Mikoto passes on, Corrin swears to defeat Anankos.

Reinforcements
In this chapter, reinforcements appear when a playable unit is found in one of the starting enemies' attack range, or if a red door is opened instead of a blue one. On Normal mode, whether a unit is in an enemy's range is only checked on Player Phase. On Hard and Lunatic, it is checked on Enemy Phase after the enemy moves as well, effectively meaning the player must account for double their movement ranges to avoid being spotted. If an enemy from an earlier room noticed a playable unit, reinforcements from the following room will appear on the same turn that the door to the room is opened; the same is true for reinforcements of earlier rooms if a later room's unit spots a player unit. Killing one of the starting enemies will also trigger reinforcements.
Should the player complete the chapter without being spotted, they will be given a set of items as rewards (see above).

If Corrin/the thief cannot deal with Mikoto at 2 range, then you can substitute Corrin for someone who can (like Ryoma or a mage) and leave Corrin in the top left of the first room. Besides the first turns, it plays out the same.

Trivia
- This chapter is the thirdFire Emblem chapter to feature a stealth mission, followingChapter 4 ofThracia 776 andChapter 10 ofPath of Radiance.
- On Normal mode, the enemies will behave like the guards in the respectivePath of Radiance chapter where units do not get caught unless they start within attack range. On at least Hard, however, they can detect units within range after moving.
