Mikoto (Japanese:ミコトMikoto) is the queen ofHoshido andCorrin's biological mother inFire Emblem Fates.

Fire Emblem Fates

Role

Pre-Decision

Mikoto first appears in chapter 4 when Corrin first returns to Hoshido. She is utterly overjoyed to be reunited with her child, and dearly hopes to reawaken their lost memories of their time with her. However, during a parade to announce Corrin's return,a mysterious assassin appears, telekinetically steals theGanglari from Corrin, and detonates it as a bomb. Mikoto sacrifices herself to protect Corrin from the shrapnel, restoring Corrin's memory of their kidnapping as she dies. Mikoto makes no further appearances in theBirthright route.

Corrin's S-rank supports with their Hoshidan siblings reveal that Sumeragi was not actually Corrin's biological father; she arrived in Hoshido with the infant Corrin during queenIkona's reign and married Sumeragi after her death. OnlyRyoma knew that Corrin was not Sumeragi's child; he was sworn to secrecy as a child and does not know who the real father is.

Conquest

When Corrin is brought to near-death by an attack from theAnankos-corruptedTakumi, they encounter Mikoto, Ryoma, and Takumi's spirits in the afterlife. The three encourage Corrin to return to life and defeat Takumi.

Revelation

In theRevelation route, Mikoto's life before becoming the queen of Hoshido is expanded upon. It is revealed that she is the younger sister ofGaron's second wifeArete andAzura's maternal aunt. During Corrin's campaign in Valla, Mikoto returns as a thrall of Anankos and attempts to emotionally manipulate Corrin and lead them into a trap. After being defeated in battle, she returns to her senses and shares a final moment with her children before perishing for good. Corrin later discovers that Sumeragi was also enslaved by Anankos and was Mikoto's true murderer.

Hidden Truths

During theHidden Truths DLC, it is revealed that as Anankos continued to suffer from mental degradation due to his extreme draconic power, he expelled his heart into a human form; this version of Anankos is Corrin's biological father.

Personality

This section has been marked as astub. Please help improve the page by adding information.

Mikoto was a wise and caring queen who ruledHoshido along side her husbandSumeragi. Her kindness was so profound that she took in and treatedAzura as her own child, just as she had done with Sumeragi's children. Her love for her people, and detest in violence, was shown when she erected a barrier around Hoshido, which would make an invader lose their will to fight.

Along with her vast magical ability, Mikoto had the gift of prophecy, as stated inTakumi's confession toCorrin.

Mikoto: Caring Mother
Hoshido is home to a woman who cares for all with affectionate, motherly devotion. That’s right, I’m talking about Mikoto!	Mikoto took the throne after her husband, the late king Sumeragi, fell in the conflict with Nohr. As the Queen of Hoshido, she worked to protect her people and her beloved family.	She selflessly loved and cherished her children, Ryoma, Hinoka, Takumi, Sakura, and Corrin, and even Azura, who had been taken as a hostage from Nohr.	Tragically, Mikoto perished while trying to protect Corrin during a certain incident. But her children took her wish for peace and kindness to heart, and carried it on into Hoshido’s future!
