Incursion is the seventh chapter in Fire Emblem Awakening. In this chapter, the escort of Emmeryn to Ylisse's eastern palace has gone horribly wrong, and the Shepherds are forced to defend themselves from a Plegian attack deep in their own territory. It is in this chapter Chrom takes possession of the Fire Emblem and, by extension, the gemstone already set therein.
In addition to the next chapter in the storyline, completing this chapter will also unlock the third paralogue chapter.

Incursion/Script
Chrom, Lissa, Frederick, Robin, and the hierarch arrive at a spot in a mountainous area of Ylisse en route to the eastern palace. Frederick asks why the hierarch keeps glancing at the peaks, and the hierarch reveals he's nervous. Chrom tells Robin that the hierarch has been a friend of House Ylisse for many years, though Robin is unsure of some feeling. Plegian bandits suddenly arrive, causing Chrom to wonder how Plegian soldiers knew to be there.
The hierarch walks up to one of the bandits and requests to be taken into their protection under Gangrel's orders. The leader of the bandits, Vasto, taunts the hierarch for being a traitor before having a bandit kill him. Vasto demands the Ylisseans hand over Emmeryn and the Fire Emblem, and Chrom asks Phila to take Emmeryn to the rear of the force.
During the battle, a pegasus knight, Cordelia, arrives out of breath, and informs the Shepherds of enemy reinforcements from the rear. Phila recognizes Cordelia as one of her knights stationed at the border.
Once Vasto is defeated, Cordelia urges Emmeryn and Chrom to flee, as Plegian reinforcements are "not a half day's march behind". Cordelia says that Gangrel led an army to the border and overwhelmed the guards, and that she had fled to warn the exalt. Emmeryn decides to return to the capital and entrusts the Fire Emblem to Chrom, instructing him to take it to safety in Ferox. In spite of Chrom and Lissa's pleas, Emmeryn returns to Ylisstol accompanied by Phila.
At the Arena Ferox, Lissa worries about Emmeryn, but Chrom remains distant. Sumia, intending to slap Chrom to "break him out of his doldrums", punches Chrom in the face, to Flavia's amusement. Flavia informs Chrom that the Feroxi army has mobilized, and that she and Basilio will be joining them. Basilio informs Chrom his scouts have reported that Ylisstol has fallen; the Plegians captured Emmeryn and retreated back to Plegia, with Gangrel declaring Emmeryn to be publicly executed within the month. Flavia, Robin, and Basilio suspect this to be a trap, and Basilio states that they should consider their options carefully. Chrom calls for the Shepherds to march to Plegia, intent on rescuing his sister regardless of any traps. Flavia attempts to calm Chrom and Robin promises to come up with a plan to save her.
Summary
While escorting the exalt to safety, the Ylisseans are ambushed. Emmeryn gives Chrom the Fire Emblem and returns to Ylisstol to protect her people.
