I’ve seen and analyzed this thread and have something to add. I’ve seen many theories on Magvel and frankly o think that it’s it’s own timeline and myth. For path of radiance and radiant dawn and why Priam exists my guess is that the outrealms and that somehow either Ike himself or Mist cane through and established themselves on Ylisse/Archanea. Now as to why you can find many weapons name after great heroes is in Ylisse they are just legends and myths like how we have fairy tales in our world and whythe einherjars exists is most likely because they’re heroes formed from those fairy tales according to what the Ylisseans believe as it would make sense considering the Choose your legends event in FE Heroes. Something else I’d like to add is that the matter of tiki and Seliph and if they’re actually related. My guess is that tiki did travel to Jugdral but as an infant probably after Naga’s death by Gotoh, why is because he may have pities her and tried to at least let her visit another’s continent another matter is who aka the weapon guy to forge a fake Naga tome. My guess is that it was Gotoh maybe after visiting with tiki in order to help Sigurd’s army fight Loptous, but that’s very unlikely. Anyways as I said we have many reasons to believe that March and Seliph are related ( minus the hair and overall same attitude) first is the look of Marth’s falchion and seliph’s Tyrfing. They look very similar to a fault but don’t have the same effects. One grants resistance +5 while the other restores hp and is effective against dragons. Referring to what I said about Tiki visiting Jugdral with Gotoh and saying to robin that she met an ancestor of Marth. My guess is that Tyfing was renamed falchion later down the timeline as for Naga’s blood flowing through the line. And that’s the other point, remember holy blood and all of that and how Chrom Owain Lucina and Emmeryn have the exalt’s mark? Well that’s it as in Genealogy of the holy war it is said that members of a dragon blooded family have a mark somewhere on their body which explains awakenings one. The only two people at the end of GHW that have naga holy blood ( even if someone has minor down their descendants one of them is bound to get major as explained with Tailtius children) are Seliph and Julia and I don’t believe they married since we’ll look at Julia’s parents and if they did then they wouldn’t even be capable to continue their bloodline. Now this means two things either they’re Seliph’s or Julia’s descendants but Julia’s is unlikely as she still has Loptous blood within her meaning that she can possibly revive him in a later future and he said so himself as long as greed exists he’ll exists. Also for as why the falchion looks different and has different effects let’s look at FeH and the refine. Both Tyrfing and Falchion ( except the sealed and Valentian one) have a bond or function with allies. Ylissean grants attack defense speed resistance +4 when next to an ally. Marth’’s grants the same bonus but to allies within 2 spaces to support them. Tyfing only grants attack and defense +4 when next to an ally is while this might just a reference to their respective legends I dont think so. The thing that we forget about is the awakening ritual and how the function of it make this theory possible. You need to brave Naga’s flammes in order to succeed it with the fire emblem/shield of seals. My guess is that the dragon’s fire refined it into a more powerful form as to why the falchion looks different and why if Marth is a descendant of Seliph it would make sense as to why it looks similar and has a different effect, because of the ritual and as to why it’s effective against dragons think about how the first exalt used it to plunge grima into a deep sleep. As since dragons do damage based in res instead of the res bonus tyrfing grants it would be better to make it effective against dragons so to make the wielder defeat them faster or more effectively. Want more proof just think back to how Seliph defeated Julius/Loptous. It time it should just kill the vessel and Loptous should remain free and sealed somewhere but it outright killed him and he dissipates which is whydown the descendant line and plus the awakening it would destroy dragons. Now as to how if I’m correct shouldn’t Marth technically rule over both Jugdral and Ylisse? He should but what if the succession was divided like that:
1- those with major holy blood rule over the empire of Jugdral ( like back then and as proved by the mark of the exalt)
2- those with minor rule over the minor territory of Archanea. They both seem unlikely has then why are those distant relatives not mentioned or heard of at all? Frankly I haven’t thought that far as I was just focused on proving that Marth is related to Seliph if anyone agrees and wants to develop this farther please do as I’ll be doing more research on Tellius Elliibe and Magvel. Have a nice day ☺️
