This is the bad part of town, kiddo. You shouldn't be walking around here by yourselves. After all, you're might run into some real bad characters. Not unlike...us. Heh, heh.
— Shura

Hidden Capital (Japanese:死したる王都Dying Capital) is the twenty-second chapter of theBirthright campaign inFire Emblem Fates. In this chapter,Corrin's army arrives inWindmire and must deal with a band of local ruffians; their leader is convinced to help Corrin's army locate a secret passage to the castle.

Plot

Main article:Hidden Capital/Script

The Hoshidan army enters Windmire, the capital ofNohr.Silas explains the dire state of the commoners, shockingRyoma—he vows to share Hoshido's bounties with Nohr once he becomes king. The group is then surrounded by a group of bandits, and is approached by their leaderShura. Shura orders them to hand over their valuables, but the Hoshidans are unwilling, and battle begins between the two groups.

Once the bandits are defeated, Ryoma orders Shura tied up to prevent knowledge of their presence from spreading. Azura suggests they ask Shura about a secret tunnel into Castle Krakenburg, recalling the route by which she was kidnapped. Shura is willing to sell information of the tunnel, and Ryoma swears on his honor as High Prince of Hoshido to repay him; finally recognizing Ryoma, Shura apologizes and introduces himself as a ninja ofKohga—a kingdom that was destroyed byMokushu. Ryoma vows to help reestablish Kohga if Shura aids them against Garon, to which he agrees. Shura then takes the Hoshidans to the secret tunnel; he notes to himself that he recognizes Azura from when she was younger.

Shura leads the Hoshidans to a lively underground market, explaining it is free from the crime of the above. The group is approached by a flower girl who recognizes Corrin; it isElise, who takes the group to a private room. Inside the room, Elise introducesCassita, her former nanny, with whom she has been staying. Elise explains how Corrin's absence has driven their siblings apart, and how Garon has become increasingly cruel. Cassita explains that Garon changed drastically after the deaths of QueenKaterina (his first wife, andXander's mother) and QueenArete; she notes how similar Azura looks to Arete, and Ryoma reasons that Azura is the child of Arete and Garon. Elise is excited to have another sister, though Azura states the group must leave quickly.

Summary

The group passes through Demon's Falls and reaches the capital of Nohr. Sneaking in, they soon find themselves face-to-face with an unexpected enemy.
