    To add to what Interdimensional Observer said, there is like, no guidence when it comes to quests. I am not kidding when i say that you basically need to look up the quest in the Wiki if you actually want to complete because the quests do not tell you anything. And collecting items is also kinda bad becuase unlike the garuanteed collection points in 2, items are gotten through randomized item orbs that you can find scattered randomly across the world. You simply walk through it to pick it up (it's like this in X as well). 

    Don't even get me started on items like Black Liver Beans or Forget You Nots.

    Hmm, what movie was it? I take it is a LatAm dub you're watching, not Castillian?

    Anyway... well, maybe it's different since I'm a native and this is the stuff I've grown up with; but I've never gotten that vibe. That said, perhaps this is due to, at least for LatAm dubs, that they employ a neutral Spanish dialogue? I know some places make more rationalized dubs; but nowadays it's more common to have a single universal dub.

    Beats me...

    I remember some lists of actors portraying the same character having two different Spanish voices listed to differentiate between Latin and European Spanish. I don't know if I'm remembering correctly, though.

    So i'm overhearing my cousin watching a movie that's been dubbed in Spanish and honest to God, every Spanish dub sounds the same. It's like there are stock voices that they use instead of real people. And yes, i understand the language. I'm Venezuelan American. Watch any two, completely unrelated movies dubbed in Spanish and you'll see what i mean.

    Sounds like I ought to stick with subs if I want to watch anything that has a Spanish language option.

    Interesting. I thought that this was a place to talk about Fire Emblem, but you are all talking about different universes... 

    But apparently, this is a designated place to talk about things other than Fire Emblem.

    This is part of the "Far From the Forest" subforum. We can talk about whatever we want in it as long as we play nice with each other.

    . . .can you truly tell the difference between a Lycian face-sprite and a Bern one?

    Even in real life, a native resident of a country would be able to tell the difference between one of their own and a foreigner of a similar skin color. I can't see why the same wouldn't apply here.

    If it meant keeping her family safe, I think she'd shut up.  She has her morals, and deliberately putting people in danger isn't high on that list.

    I don't think she would be able to keep her family safe even in that situation. Given the possibility Zephiel's forces WOULD know who she is anyways, regardless of her position, they would want to make sure that she has no family left after she's killed. In the extremely unlikely event that she is somehow Rutger's mother, Rutger's survival would make even less sense in regards to this. Don't forget that all of Bern's attacks were surprise attacks in the war's beginnings. And it does make sense for Bern to target Bulgar first, given its status as a center of commerce.

    She was raised in Sacae, and she cut ties with the one excuse she'd have to live in Lycia.  If a theoretical husband was of another clan, I don't see why she wouldn't.

    We only see her joining another clan in her ending with Rath. No such indication is given in regards to her solo ending or her endings with Florina (which is an alternate version of her solo ending) or Kent. On that note, if she's living in Sacae (which, again, I don't think is likely, given what the game itself suggests), I doubt she would be living in Bulgar due to its urban environment.

    Farina > Lyn

    Also, never rely on Heroes for anything outside of a fun extra. 

    Even without taking Heroes into consideration, Lyn's still the closest thing to a canon spouse for Hector and vice-versa. Whereas Farina's the furthest thing away from the same.

    I doubt the enemies would walk up to Lyn and ask "hey is your non-Sacaean half from Bern?" 

    I doubt Zephiel's forces would have left Rutger alive if he looked Lycian. Especially when considering that Lycia was next on Zephiel's list after Sacae.

    I also didn't say that she had to lie outright, only that it wouldn't be wise to advertise it.  Merely NOT saying anything about her other side, and letting assumptions fill in the gap would be enough.  Whether or not she'd shut up about it would be another matter (though Caelin goes poof once she abdicates, so where her mom was from would be even more unimportant IMO).

    It doesn't matter if she had to lie about it or not. She's not the kind of person who would deny herself or her family her heritage. I wouldn't be too surprised if not saying anything about it would be just as bad as lying about it in her eyes.

    Plus, Rutger/Dayan A implies that people can move clans.  Lyn's original clan was wiped out, so that option would be available to her.

    Doesn't really mean she would end up doing such a thing, considering how she's been living before FE7 started. (And on a side note, after reading a paragraph from another topic on this forum, her being in Sacae at all after FE7 would kinda make her the odd one out in regards to FE lords unifying their home countries. But that's just me.)

    Wasn't her clan wiped out before the events of FE7.

    All except 10 survivors, including Lyn herself, if her own words are anything to go by.

    which is after she would have had to have teen-pregnancied Rutger? She seems to be living on her own when the game starts.

    Another reason why I think the idea that Lyn is Rutger's mother is as full of holes as Swiss cheese. I honestly think it's more likely that Lilina's own parentage is like Rutger's in that there are Sacaeans on both sides of her own family. But that requires assuming that Hector/Lyn is canon. So...

    1. Bulgar is a city, not a clan.

    Rutger's supports with Dayan mention him belonging to a clan that was living in Bulgar.

    2. Lyn's father is Sacaean.

    But her mom is Lycian, not Bernese. Again, Rutger is left alone because he looks Bernese, which implies that both of his parents are half-Bernese.

    24 minutes ago, eclipse said:

    This hinges on Lyn NOT being truthful about her non-Sacaean side.  In this hypothetical scenario, Lyn would be in the middle of Bern, so advertising she's from Lycia wouldn't be a very bright idea. 

    I heavily doubt Lyn would deny her Lycian heritage like that. And this isn't even getting into the fact that Sacaeans are known for their honesty. Lying about her non-Sacaean side is literally against her character, either way you look at it.

    . . .cite sources for each of these.  I already see one huge error.

    Deke's supports with Rutger clearly state that Rutger's father has a Sacaean mother and that his mother has a Sacaean father. And that they all lived in Bulgar prior to Bern's attack on Sacae. They also state that the reason why he survived Bern's attack on Bulgar specifically is because Rutger himself looks like a Bernese native.

    He's there to remind us why Shin is awesome.

    My personal headcanon is

      Reveal hidden contents

    Lyn is somehow Rutger's mom

    but there's no way I'd declare that as Actual Canon.

    Lyn would have had to have had Rutger before the start of FE7 for this to be possible.

    She would have also to have married a half-Sacaean half-Bernese man whose mom was Sacaean herself, which none of her support options are. And she would also have to have been part of the Bulgar clan, which she isn't and wasn't, and also have a Bernese mother, which she doesn't.
