The Agarthans eventually recruited a bandit named {{s|fireemblemwiki|Nemesis}} to enact revenge on Sothis and the Nabateans. Nemesis and his warriors, the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Ten Elites}}, slaughtered the sleeping Sothis as well as almost all of the Nabateans, using their hearts to grant themselves {{s|fireemblemwiki|Crest}}s and their bones to create the {{s|fireemblem|Heroes' Relics}}. The five surviving Nabateans, led by Sothis's daughter {{s|fireemblemwiki|Seiros}}, allied themselves with one of Nemesis's own and eventually destroyed Nemesis and the Ten Elites. Following the war, Seiros rewrote history to hide the truth of the Heroes' Relics and Crests, creating the Church of Seiros. By the time of the game, Seiros has taken on a new identity, serving as the Archbishop {{s|fireemblemwiki|Rhea}}. | The Agarthans eventually recruited a bandit named {{s|fireemblemwiki|Nemesis}} to enact revenge on Sothis and the Nabateans.

Rhea plots to revive Sothis, bestowing Sothis's Crest, the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Crest of Flames}}, upon a woman of the church. The woman, whose name is Sitri, falls in love with and marries {{s|fireemblemwiki|Jeralt}}, the captain of the Knights of Seiros, and becomes pregnant; however, the child is stillborn. Sitri pleads with Rhea to use her Crest to revive her child and Rhea relents, though the baby remains without a heartbeat. Suspecting Rhea is not telling him the full truth of what happened to his wife and child, Jeralt fakes his and the child's death and flees the Monastery. This child grows up to be [[Byleth]], seeing Sothis in their dreams; however, Sothis cannot remember her past. With Sothis's help, Byleth gains the ability to rewind time. | Rhea plots to revive Sothis, bestowing Sothis's Crest, the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Crest of Flames}}, upon a woman of the church.

After a chance encounter results in Jeralt and Byleth being brought back to the Monastery, Rhea continues her plan to revive her mother. Sothis slowly regains her memories and eventually realizes that she is the progenitor god, but is forced to merge her power with Byleth in order to allow them to escape a dark realm they were banished to by one of the remaining Agarthans. Although Byleth now has the full power of the goddess, Sothis no longer appears to speak to them. Rhea attempts to have Sothis take over Byleth's body by having them sit on the throne, but Sothis refuses. | After a chance encounter results in Jeralt and Byleth being brought back to the Monastery, Rhea continues her plan to revive her mother.

It is possible for Byleth to fall in love with Sothis and select her as their S-Support at the end of the game, even in Crimson Flower, despite Byleth's crest being destroyed in the route; should these conditions be met, Sothis will regain her form in Byleth's dreams. | It is possible for Byleth to fall in love with Sothis and select her as their S-Support at the end of the game, even in Crimson Flower, despite Byleth's crest being destroyed in the route; should these conditions be met, Sothis will regain her form in Byleth's dreams. | ||

Sothis also appears as a Legend-class [[support spirit]] in the ''Fire Emblem: Three Houses'' DLC Spirit Board. | |||
Sothis uses a female Byleth puppet fighter whose alternate costume is based on Byleth after fusing with Sothis, and is fought on the [[Spear Pillar]] stage's [[Ω form]]. During the battle, the female Byleth will suddenly have a Final Smash. Also, the female Byleth's health will increase significantly when she is at high damage, referencing the first meeting between Byleth and Sothis after the former took a fatal attack from the bandit leader Kostas, where Sothis granted them the Divine Pulse, a time manipulation power which allowed Byleth to rewind time and disarm Kostas. | |||
