#fe8 stuff

[darkflierliesel]

very funny that feh keeps acting like the twins and lyon were childhood friends when iirc when according to the epilogue they met only two years before the event of the start of fe8. "this is just like back when we were kids :)" ahh the bygone days of two whole years ago.

My face is robed in darkness,

sometimes you glimpse me in the shade,

All friends have gone,

all calls are weak and wasted,

there is no more to say.

Will you not crawl to me and love me for one more day?

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones is now on Nintendo Switch Online!

Because of this, all 3 GBA era FE games are now on Nintendo Switch Online! That said, The Binding Blade is still restricted to Japan 😔

Fallen and Christmas Lyon's relationship with Fomortiis makes a lot more sense after i saw someone argue that those are versions of Lyon from after he died in Sacred Stones, meaning he now knows Fomortiis' weaknesses and can blackmail him into working with him by threatening to tell everyone else about them too

It doesn't really hurt Lyon's base game characterization if his Fallen and Christmas versions are basically just Sacred Stones AUs where he gets ressurected with his mind still intact after dying and, as such, knows Formootis' weaknesses much better than he did the first time and can blackmail him with said knowledge imo

meaning he now knows Fomortiis' weaknesses and can blackmail him into working with him by threatening to tell everyone else about them too

Anon,

FE8 makes it clear that everyone knows, from Natasha to Joshua, from L'Arachel to Rennac, that the Demon King fears the Sacred Stones who can seal him.

Hell, it's basically that continent's lore told in the opening roll.

What makes Fomortiis the Big Bad is his inablity to be killed, and his power to seduce, I mean, manipulate people around him, even if he's stuck in a rock.

Fomortiis' main power is to corrupt, not to throw giant fists around : as long as he is around, even as a rock, he can still wreck havoc and doom the world.

This is what happened with Lyon, and how he got a new host - despite everyone around telling him to not to mess with the shiny rock, because Fomortiis tempted and lured him.

"Seal him in a rock!" is as secret as the knowledge that you can prevent slugs from eating your salads if you throw salt at them in FE8, but FEH tried too hard to rewrite Lyon in a character he was not in FE8 (for marketing purposes? To make him look cooler than his original incarnation?) thus, it's basically a retcon.

"I know how to seal you!"

"Just like Duessel, and yet, you're still the moron who fell for my lies!"

just a forde, nothing really much else is happening

do not expect this to be cleaned up at all I may be making something. I may have to rewrite a segment of my dialogue to fit this (or just take it and move it somewhere else)

Last push for CYL (Choose Your Lyons)!

My ideal Brave Lyon would be an armoured staff unit: the movement type of his father combined with one of his most significant motivations (helping/healing).

I took some inspiration from Vigarde's design but turned the armour pieces into clothing in an attempt to show what an uncorrupted Lyon might be about; I also tried to call back a bit to the Summoner battle sprite as his class also shares the ability to Summon (and since we have player-controlled Summoners in FE8, this ability might not always be inextricably linked to evil?)

I've been thinking about what Brave Lyon's gameplay niche might be since my first CYL in 2023, and my initial idea was that he would be able to 'resurrect' a chosen ally once per map, which I thought would be too powerful at the time (then all the Drive Miracle stuff happened lol). Now we have Styles, another fun idea might be a Summoning Style to create 1HP Phantoms. Lastly, since Duo Lyon is now a thing, a Brave Lyon who has transcended needing to end people's actions could 'dance' any ally he heals once per turn.

Looking forward to redrawing this next year! Consider casting just one vote for Lyon so he doesn't get obliterated by Fomortiis this CYL, but otherwise I wish good luck to your candidate of choice!
