Homecoming



The Homecoming is a ceremony in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

Description
Receiving a Homecoming is the lifetime goal of many soldiers of Aionios. After a soldier carries out ten years of fighting, they return to either a Colony or the Castle of their respective nations to be honored. The off-seers then play their melodies to send off the soldier to "return to the Queen's embrance" as they dissolve into golden motes. However, most soldiers die on the battlefield before they receive their Homecoming. Prior to the Homecoming ceremonies, Consuls would often execute soldiers who reach the end of their tenth term.

Story
The first Homecoming seen in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is at Colony 14 where the Queen of Keves conducts one for a soldier, an event in which a young Noah, Eunie, Lanz, and Joran witnesses.

Mio is an Agnian off-seer who is three months away from her Homecoming.
