    I'm pretty sure it was confirmed that Grima is a construct of alchemy. I've read (Well I'm pretty sure I read) here that Grima was made by an alchemist who mixed Divine Dragon blood with a dracozombie. This made said dracozombie transform into Grima, but because of the Divine Dragon blood, Grima pretty much became a god.

    That's pretty much on the ball, although the Dracozombie thing is implied/speculation. Young Grima, which I dunno if it appears, has the same portrait as a Dracozombie.

    Also, assuming the Art of Awakening is correct, Grima *may* be descended from the Earth Dragons, in which case the dragon corpse could've been an Earth Dragon.

    EDIT @VincentASM eeeeeeh it's a tough call... I don't any of those natures are particularly great OR outright terrible and not worth using;  they all get something decent at least but lose something they want lol. Of them I'd say Effie is probably the best, but form what I know she REALLY wants to be Atk+. (I think I have the same Effie actually and I'm planning to keep her at 4* until/unless I never get a better one). I'm sure they'll still be decent at least.

    If you need Green then Fae might be good to promote. -Res hurts since she's good at it naturally and it helps her counter the other blue dragons better, but she attacks melee a lot anyway so maybe it won't hurt. 

    Thanks, I figured as much. Gosh darn when you get merely OK stats >___<

    Well, I've managed to survive thus far, so i guess it's not a huge problem.

    huh, there's a fire dragon in there. its description mentions archanea, so I guess it's for chapter 6?

    Most likely.

    Let me tell you, my mind was blown when I saw that description in the text files. Then I saw the stuff about Thabes...

    Very WIP world map

    I ended up manually placing all the lines myself, curves and all. Almost done with Chapter 3.

    I think this is my favourite world map so far. Awakening was close, but they had to surround the map with fake continents : /

    Is the Shadows wallpaper even available in Europe? I can't find it in the rewards at all.
    Maybe someone can show me where exactly it is?

    It's not there yet, I think.

    If you can see the Snipperclips wallpaper, you're looking in the right place.

    I guess the logic here is to just slightly offset the pretty high base growths

    Kind of surprised the entire cavalry line has no penalties.

    I suppose Cavaliers are the base line; they are often described as balanced classes.

    Sub-quests added

    Note: I'm missing some information (some quests give additional Renown for example), but it's too difficult to extract without playing the game. Should serve as a decent guide though.

    I also found that some quests were removed from the game. There were supposed to be 40, whereas there are 33 in-game

    BTW, at least two of the quests are kinda depressing.

    In Missing Son, the son's long gone. Same with the father in Father's Memories. However it's even worse since it's implied the father became a Revenant.

    Stolen Sculpture is LOL funny.

    So about the recent echoes leak, I just have a question, Is there even a link for the download or anything out there? I would like to try and data mine, thanks anyhow

    Yes, but I'm afraid we're not allowed to discuss specific locations due to copyright laws and whatnot.

  7. I'm pretty confident an actual FE timeline exists, so there's no real need to retcon anything.

    We already knew the Archanea/Jugdral games have a clear place in the timeline, but everything else has been a closely guarded secret, with a few hints and teases. Or in Awakening's case, they just outright told us.

    That said, I would not be surprised if the timeline is branched like Zelda. Except rather than Ocarina of Time being the branching point, we have the Outrealms and possibly even Fates to a certain degree.

    Anyway, I'm not gonna lie: I would literally jump with joy if they revealed the FE timeline.

  8. What a time to be alive indeed.

    I can't recommend the Trails series enough; it is literally my favourite RPG series. FE is favourite SRPG though.

    I had some reservations about the 3rd, but if you like the first two games at all, you'll probably love it. After getting used to the change in pace : P

    Man, that ominous meeting was amazing. Not only because it totally explained the ending of SC...

    And made Kevin look dumb for letting the guy walk away with the thing.

    If Naga was dead, how did Naga show up 2000 years very much alive in Awakening? I'm confused as to this point. I don't think there's an "original Naga" and current Naga... I'll admit I'm not entirely sure where Nagi fits into all of this.

    I said named dragons. Not nameless, faceless masses.

    We were led to believe that Naga perished. In reality, she was sleeping in an Outrealm as Nagi.

    Or maybe she did die. After all, Naga in Awakening seems to exist only in spirit form.

  10. So I was curious about Berkut's role in the story and started looking into his lines. I think the guy's a pretty tragic villain, so I'll do him a favour and translate some of his story appearances.

    Due to the way Echoes stores its text (aka everything is a mess), I'm still looking for all the places he appears. I'll update this post when I find more.

     

    Memories 3: Before the Dance

    Rinea
    .....

    Berkut
    Hey, what are you doing over there?

    Rinea
    Eh?

    Berkut
    ....!

    Rinea
    Lord Berkut...! I-I... please forgive my rudeness.

    Berkut
    ...Pay it no heed; it was I who called out for you. Since you've come to this ball, why aren't you in the main hall?

    Rinea
    Oh... Because my family... well, they aren't what you would describe as an affluent house. I simply cannot bear to see the gaze of others... so I feel more comfortable standing out here.

    Berkut
    Such trifle matters shouldn't be taken to heart, no? You already accepted the invitation, so you might as well put on a proper show.

    Rinea
    Of course...

    Berkut
    Or do you mean to tell me you dislike dancing?

    Rinea
    Eh? No, never! I do so love dancing. Oh, the house where I live, there's a small forest nearby. There, there's a flower garden and so many small birds; oh, I love that place with all my heart... When the weather is clear and the air pristine, I always dance there... all alone... Oh dear, pardon me for going on a tangent...

    Berkut
    Oh, it was my pleasure. Please do continue.

    Rinea
    I beg your pardon?

    Berkut
    What is your name?

    Rinea
    Ah, er... my name is Rinea.

    Berkut
    Rinea... it's a wonderful name. Well then, Rinea, would you accompany me for one dance?

    Rinea
    I, er, ah, what?! You're asking somebody like me to dance with such an important man as yourself? That simply won't do... I am not even worthy of your presence.

    Berkut
    Ahem, what I meant to say is I want you to dance with me! Of course, if you do not wish to venture into the main hall, we can dance here. But there are no flowers or birds here, so please do not be too disappointed.

    Rinea
    ....Ah... Lord Berkut, you're... truly... sniff...

    Berkut
    Well now... You do remember I'm the Emperor's nephew. Isn't refusing my request far more insulting?

    Rinea
    ...You speak true. In that case, I would love to be your dance partner, milord...

    Berkut
    Heh.

    Map: Zofia's Gate (Chapter 1)

    Berkut
    So that's the so-called Deliverance? Ha, nothing but a group of savages.

    Desaix
    Indeed, you are not wrong. Such insects are not worth the attention of a Rigelian such as yourself, sire. Please do look forward to our soldiers' stunning performance from your seat here.

    Berkut
    That I shall do. What say you, Rinea?

    Rinea
    I... I cannot stand to see bloodshed... so I regrettably cannot partake, milord.

    Berkut
    Haha, I jest.

    Desaix
    In any case, I shall bid my leave...

    Berkut
    Yes, show me the power of the Dragon Shield I bestowed upon you.

    Desaix
    Of course! Leave everything to me!

    Berkut
    ....Hey, you said your name was Fernand, correct?

    Fernand
    ...Yes

    Berkut
    I hear the new leader of the Deliverance is a boy named Alm? This boy is a commoner too, is this true?

    Fernand
    You are correct. Starting with Clive, it seems everyone has put their faith into Mycen's grandson.

    Berkut
    Pfft, what idiocy. The nobility is the nobility. Commoners will forever be commoners. Never in a thousand years can a lamb rise to become a lion.

    Fernand
    Ah! Indeed, indeed! Your words ring with truth, Lord Berkut, sire!

    Berkut
    Clive of the Zofian Order, huh? If he served Rigel, he would surely be a famed general. It's hard to believe he would commit such a simple error. Hmph, no doubt the Deliverance's days are numbered. If that is the case, it won't be long before Zofia becomes a trophy of our glorious Empire... Rinea!

    Rinea
    Yes, what is it, milord?

    Berkut
    Just you wait, my dear Rinea. I will one day succeed Rudolf as Emperor and become the ruler of all of Valentia. And you shall become my Empress. I wager you must be excited.

    Rinea
    ...Berkut, actually I...

    Berkut
    Aha, it looks like it's started! I do hope you'll give me a good showing, Alm.

    (Post-battle)

    Berkut
    Damn it, Desaix that dastard, he was nothing but a windbag after all.

    Fernand
    Lord Berkut, what are our plans?

    Berkut
    With the troops available to us, there's no way for us to hold back the rebels. We shall retreat. We can regroup with the main army back in Zofia Woods. Rinea, you will come with us as well.

    Rinea
    Understood!

    Berkut
    Alm, was it...? I shall remember your name.

    Map Forest Village (Chapter 3)

    Berkut
    You've finally come, Deliverance, or whatever you call yourselves.

    Alm
    Fernand! And you...

    Berkut
    I am Berkut. The nephew of the Rigelian Emperor, Rudolf.

    Alm
    Berkut... Emperor Rudolf...!

    Berkut
    So you are the one they call Alm? The battle of Zofia Castle was a sight to behold. For a ragtag group of commoners, I applaud your efforts.

    Clive
    I heard the main army retreated. What are you doing here?

    Fernand
    This is Lord Berkut's little joke. He wants to test your abilities.

    Berkut
    It has been too long since I last entered the battlefield; my skills have grown rusty. Now is the perfect opportunity for me to witness your abilities in action!

    Alm
    !! Everyone, get ready; they're advancing on us!

    (Vs Berkut; Alm)

    Berkut
    That mark on your left hand...

    Alm
    What are you talking about? That's got nothing to do with anything!

    Berkut
    Hmm, indeed. A lowborn like you would never have a Brand. It's just a third rate lookalike; fitting for a commoner such as yourself!

    (Vs Berkut)

    Berkut
    Hurry! I have come to play!

    (Berkut falls)

    Berkut
    Nngh...! To put me into this position... Forget it. There's no point in throwing away my life just to test my opponent's strength.

    (Vs Fernand)

    Fernand
    You should know there's no need for me to test your abilities!

    (Fernand falls)

    Fernand
    Ah...! I was too careless. Nevermind, I should pull back.

    Map: North of the Woods (Chapter 3)

    Rudolf
    So you've returned, Berkut.

    Berkut
    Mm...

    Rudolf
    Is it true you challenged the Deliverance with nothing but your faithless pride and lost?

    Berkut
    ...Nngh. I am terribly sorry. I slightly underestimated their capabilities.

    Rudolf
    .....

    Judah
    I would not have expected a man of Berkut's calibre to so easily lose to that group of ragtags. The glory of the Rigelian Knights is but a sham, I see.

    Berkut
    You insolent cur.... A lowly dog like you dares to mock our glorious order? Before you spout your nonsense, take a proper look at who you're speaking to!

    Judah
    Sigh... You claim a faithful servant of Rigel's benevolent creator, Lord Duma, is but a dog? I think the one who should take a proper look is not I.

    Berkut
    What are you suggesting?

    Judah
    Lord Rudolf. From our reports, the Deliverance is marching towards the bordering floodgates. However, the floodgates are guarded by one known as Tatara, a rather capable member of the Church. From what I've heard, he's acquired himself a new toy as well. That boy will not go any further.

    Berkut
    Wait! My lord!

    Rudolf
    What is it? Speak, Berkut.

    Berkut
    In the event that the Deliverance breaks through the floodgates, I would request your permission to protect the Rigelian border.

    Rudolf
    .....

    Berkut
    This time, I will defeat them without fail. You will see with your own eyes. So please, give me one more chance...!

    Rudolf
    ...Very well. However I forbid those cretins from stepping onto Rigelian soil, do you have me clear?

    Berkut
    Absolutely clear, sire!

    Judah
    Ohoho... but you're wasting your efforts... Hahahaha....

    Berkut
    Grr...

    Rinea
    Oh...

    Berkut
    .....

    Rinea
    Lord Berkut, have you finished reporting to his imperial majesty?

    Berkut
    Yes. I will be heading out again, this time to the country's borders.

    Rinea
    Oh. But you only just returned not long ago.

    Berkut
    It was I who requested. I asked him to give me one more chance. That goddamn Alm! It's all because of him that I've had to put up with Judah's mockery. This slight, I will be sure to return!

    Nuibaba
    Oho, well if it isn't Lord Berkut?

    Berkut
    Who goes?

    Nuibaba
    It's been a long time. I am the keeper of Fear Mountain, Nuibaba, sent here by Lord Judah himself. From what I've heard, you lost to that loathsome Deliverance and came scurrying back with your tail between your legs.

    Berkut
    You Church people are all the same, aren't you? You don't know when to shut up.

    Nuibaba
    Oh, how scary. Please do not misunderstand, milord. I have come here to provide you with assistance.

    Berkut
    Assistance? What assistance could you bring me? Why should I rely on your chaotic god when I can hone my own skills? I don't need your help or your "power".

    Nuibaba
    Oh, are you sure about that? Say you somehow fail to keep the borders, even somebody of your status would be plunged into a perilous situation. Wouldn't you agree?

    Berkut
    ...Grr...

    Nuibaba
    You claim our power is unneeded, but surely you have seen the benefits our Church has provided to the war effort? I believe even you must be aware of the potential of Lord Duma's power. You do know how Lord Judah sacrificed his daughters Mara and Heste to Lord Duma? Of course, he too has attained great sorcerous powers.

    Rinea
    He did that to his own daughters? How terrible...

    Nuibaba
    Well, what do you say, milord? Should you also desire to obtain Duma's strength, I will personally come to perform your rites. I look forward to seeing you join the fold...

    Berkut
    Pointless blabber. No matter how strong Duma's power is, it's meaningless if I cannot defeat Alm using my own strength.

    Nuibaba
    You're a stubborn little one aren't you? In that case, you should at least take this.

    Berkut
    A... mirror?

    Nuibaba
    This is a cursed mirror. Of course, I believe you will be victorious. But if worse comes to worse, all you have to do is break this mirror. Doing so will surely be of great help to you, milord.

    Berkut
    I don't need something like...

    Nuibaba
    Are you absolutely sure?

    Berkut
    .....

    Nuibaba
    There's no harm in keeping it to be on the safe side. Well, Lord Berkut, I pray for your victory. Ohohoho....

    Map: Borders (Chapter 4)

    Berkut
    I've been waiting for you, Alm.

    Alm
    Berkut...!

    Berkut
    Heh... You've brought more than I expected. Your ragtag army of soldiers has grown into quite a sight.

    Alm
    .....

    Berkut
    But, it appears you fail to grasp the difference between heaven and earth. You dare to attack Rigel on its own soil... Who do you think you are, foolish dastard? The king of Zofia!? I would advise you to look into a mirror!

    Clive
    Don't speak of Alm like that!

    Fernand
    Clive?

    Clive
    I have been watching Alm carefully, monitoring his actions and speech. He has the makings of our king; he's a valiant yet merciful warrior. I have finally come to realise, the qualifications of a king do not merely come from birth, but arise due to his thoughts and worries for others and how he acts to solve these problems.

    Fernand
    Clive, you fool...! Do you truly mean to abandon the pride of our Zofian nobility, all for this petty commoner? You are no longer the Clive I once knew. I shall cut you down here and now!

    [Movie: Battle of Heroes]

    (Vs Berkut)

    Berkut
    You invaders who have sullied Rigel... This is my final act of mercy. You shall all die here!

    (Berkut falls)

    Berkut
    Urgh... How... could I...

    (Vs Fernand)

    Fernand
    You fools who bring shame to Zofia, to hell with you!

    (Fernand falls)

    Uhh...! Why? Why can't I beat these dastards...!

    (Post-battle)

    Berkut
    Gah...

    Alm
    Berkut... I admit you are strong. Because of this, I'm sorry I have no choice but to end you now!

    (Berkut uses Nuibaba's mirror)

    Berkut
    ...I can't believe I had to rely on this... thing.

    Alm
    Eh?!

    Tobin
    Uh... uwaaaaah! Wh-what the heck is that!? Alm!!

    Alm
    Is everybody alright!?

    Soldier
    Ayee! S-save me...

    Alm
    Gods! What is this!? Hands coming from beneath the ground... Is this some kind of sorcery?

    Lukas
    No, I don't think so. Our Magic and attacks aren't doing anything! This is different to the magic we know about... Urgh!

    Alm
    Lukas! What should I do? If things continue like this, then everyone... Berkut, what are you playing at!?

    Berkut
    ...How astounding... So this is the strength of Duma.

    Alm
    What did you just say...?

    Berkut
    ...Nothing. You will die here, so there's no sense in explaining.

    Alm
    Wait, Berkut... Nngh... Am I really going to die here...!? I won't be able to see you again... Celica...?

    Alm
    Huh...?

    Tobin
    Hey, didn't something just shine just then?

    Alm
    It was Celica's charm... Was that you, Celica? Thank you Celica. You saved me and the others...!

    Berkut
    What? They lifted Duma's curse?! Dastard, what have you done?

    Alm
    ...I don't know. But I do know I need to offer my sincerest thanks to someone.

    Berkut
    ...What are you babbling on about? A dastard like you is capable of this... The mighty Berkut will never...!

    Fernand
    Lord Berkut! Although the curse has been broken, the enemy doesn't have the strength to purse. We should use this opportunity to pull back!

    Berkut
    Fernand... But...!

    Fernand
    As long as you can keep your head, you still have a chance to explain to the Emperor. Now, let us hurry!

    Berkut
    Damn it...!

    Fernand
    ...So that was a display of Duma's might? Having to rely on this kind of power, doesn't this reek of immorality? The Rigelian Empire... or rather the Order of Duma, what on earth are they planning?

    (Fast forward a little ahead)

    Berkut
    Goddamnit!!! Why? Why can't I win against Alm!? That commoner, how has he been able to defeat the mighty Berkut, not once, but twice...!!

    Rinea
    Lord Berkut! Please calm yourself, milord. As long as you are safe and sound, that's all tha...

    Berkut
    Shut up! What do you know!?

    Rinea
    ...Oh, Berkut...

    Berkut
    ...Ever since I was little, I only desired one thing, to become stronger and stronger. That was the responsibility of being born a royal. Whether it was Father or Mother, that was what I was taught. Are you saying it's right that I lost to that filthy commoner!? I even had to resort to using that inhumane power... Was I simply naive...?

    Duma
    ...Accept me...

    Berkut
    What?!

    Duma
    Human seeking strength... Become my follower...

    Berkut
    That voice...? Who's there?

    Rinea
    Milord!? Are you alright...?

    Berkut
    ...You didn't hear a thing...? That voice just now...

    Location: Rigel Castle (Chapter 5)

    Berkut
    ...That dastard Alm... So he's actually Rudolf's son...? Which makes him the rightful heir of the Rigelian Empire? So it was all a waste... everything I've worked so hard for... I don't believe it... I refuse to believe it... Everything is a goddamn lie!!

    Berkut
    Huh!? This place... an altar? How did I arrive here...?

    Duma
    ...Human filled with endless ambitions...

    Berkut
    Who said that!?

    Duma
    Human in search of power... Become my follower... Accept all that I am...

    Berkut
    This... voice...! Duma... You're the God Duma, aren't you...?

    Duma
    ......

    Berkut
    This is...?

    Rinea
    Lord Berkut!

    Berkut
    Rinea...

    Rinea
    I was searching all over for you, milord. I never thought I'd find you here of all places. After all, I know how much you despise the church.

    Berkut
    ...Indeed. Having my right to the throne suddenly snatched away by that boy. Anyone would want to borrow the gods' strength.

    Rinea
    Oh... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said anything...

    Berkut
    .....

    Rinea
    Milord, please lift your spirits. Lord Alm is a gentle soul; he would never cause willful harm to you...

    Berkut
    So what!?

    Rinea
    Eeek!

    Berkut
    I want to win against Alm. I want to win and become the Emperor! After that, with you as my Empress, I shall rule over the whole of Valentia! ...But look at me now. Even Rigel is forever out of my grasp. If I have to beg for that dastard's forgiveness to live, then I'd rather he execute me now!

    Rinea
    Oh, Berkut... I beg of you, please don't say such terrible things. I... To tell the truth, I feel more relaxed now that I don't have to be Empress.

    Berkut
    ...What are you saying?

    Rinea
    So long as I can stay by your side, my heart will be content. So even if you cannot be the Emperor, I...

    Berkut
    Rinea... even you?!

    Rinea
    Eh?

    Berkut
    So you've been mocking me? You're just like Rudolf and Massena. Mocking a useless fool, a fool who can never be the Emperor! You've also been laughing at me behind my back, haven't you!!?

    Rinea
    Oh, Berkut, what are you saying?

    Berkut
    Duma, my God... I shall accept your terms. Give me strength! Give me the strength to destroy everything! No matter the cost!

    Rinea
    A...ahhhhhhh!

    [Movie: The Price of Power]

    Map: Duma's Temple (Chapter 5)

    Alm
    Ah! It's...

    Berkut
    ...Ha... Hahahaha... I've waited so long to see you, Alm. No... Or should I say Emperor Rudolf II of Rigel?

    Alm
    Berkut...

    Berkut
    Tell me, how does it feel to be in control of both Zofia and Rigel? I wager you are ecstatic beyond words. Yet it is not a feeling I will ever be able to share...

    Alm
    Berkut, I have never once felt that way. The people of Rigel won't accept as their Emperor straight away. However, for my father's sake... no, for the sake of all of Valentia, no matter how difficult it is, I shall shoulder the responsibility of this country.

    Berkut
    .....

    Alm
    From now on, Valentia faces a long road ahead of it. So, Berkut, I wish to borrow your strength. Compared to me, you have the trust of the people. Besides, we're cousins, right? Ha, it feels like a dream to have a cousin who shares my blood! I'm certain we'll get along fine. Together, the two of us will create a Valentia that's...

    Berkut
    Silence. Just because I had yet to say anything, you had the audacity to spew nothing but filth my way. The two of us, together? Don't make me laugh. Power is used for competing! Power is for fighting!

    Berkut
    .....

    Alm
    Huh!? Berkut, your face...!

    Clive
    So this is what Fernand warned us about! Alm, I fear Berkut has already accepted Duma's strength. He is no longer the Berkut we know!

    Alm
    How has it come to this?!

    (Vs Berkut)

    Berkut
    Well? Isn't she pretty...? My lovely Rinea...

    Alm
    ...! What have you done!? You... you sacrificed your beloved to Duma?!

    Berkut
    .....

    Alm
    You've lost your mind... In your search for power, you've forsaken all that's holy!?

    Berkut
    It took me a while to finally understand. Power will never betray you and it will never hurt you... It doesn't matter if it's flesh and blood or being together, all of that holds no meaning. The only thing you can trust in this world is your own power!

    Alm
    .....! So you think Father betrayed you!? That's not how it is! Father always cared about you. You're the one who stayed by his side all this time; how you could not understand!?

    Berkut
    Shut up! You're annoying me! I've already grown tired of your prattering. Come, Rinea. After we've purged these fools, we shall proceed with our wedding...!

    Alm
    Berkut...!

    Berkut
    This is all... your doing! Everything I ever loved... you stole it all from me!

    (Berkut falls)

    Berkut
    Ungh... urgh...!!

    (Post-battle)

    Berkut
    Nngh...!

    Alm
    Berkut... I'm sorry we couldn't save you. You were my one and only cousin, and we only just got to know one another... I can't believe things turned out like this...!

    Berkut
    ...Pah... What do you mean "cousin"? A nuisance to the end... Come, let me die a swift and painless death. Then you can become the only one in the line to the Rigelian throne.

    Alm
    Berkut! Still you go on about that...

    Rinea
    ...Lord Berkut...

    Berkut
    ...Huh!? Rinea... is it my sweet Rinea...?

    Rinea
    Milord... even if you don't have a crown, or a throne or a castle... The confident and smiling Berkut will forever be my Emperor...

    Berkut
    ...Rinea...!

    Rinea
    But... It seems here is no longer your kingdom. Please, let's go to the kingdom waiting for us on the other side. You said you would make me your Empress, did you not...?

    Berkut
    Ah... Indeed. I did say that, Rinea... It seems in my blind pursuit for power, the Berkut you love already died inside... I'm so sorry, Rinea... Let's go; this time, we'll be together again...

    Alm
    Berkut...!

    Berkut
    ...Oh, Alm... This is for you...

    Alm
    A... ring?

    Berkut
    This ring was a memento from my mother... I believe it will be of use one day... Ungh...!

    Alm
    Berkut...! I hate this! Don't leave me all alone!! You have to come back to Rigel with us! I still need to hear stories of Father from you...!

    Berkut
    ...Honestly... How naive do you have to be? Alm... Please make Valentia... into a place beyond the reaches of the gods... a place where people can choose their own fate... A world... free from the meddling of gods. I know... you can do it.... ....

    Alm
    Berkut, wake up, Berkut! Why!? Why did this have to happen? I only just got to know you and Father...! I... sniff, sniff...

    I see. I take it we don't know why this happens in the first place. Being a dragon in the Fire Emblem mythos must be pretty dreadful. 


    This makes me wonder just how long he and Mila have been warped when the events of Shadows of Valentia take place. I mean Duma's got a pretty loyal fanclub of evil dudes.

    Well, if he picked a fight with the most powerful dragon in the world, which seems to be in-character for him, I'd say he got off easy. He even got a little treasure to take with him, although I guess it was a security measure in case he ever went bonkers.

    There's one possible explanation, but it's still really shaky. I've always thought the Scouring triggered in Elibe affected the entire Fire Emblem world.

    One thing I always believe is that newer FE games often invent new but very subtle explanations of things in older games. In this case, the whole business with the Scouring making dragons go mad seems way too coincidental.

    Plus we now know--although you could've guessed before--that Elibe's Dragon's Gate is an Outrealm Gate. So the effects could've reached to other worlds as well.

    Hmm, the way they left so many chapters from the Book of Revelations missing is a clear sign they want us guessing. (Gods, I really want all the chapters!)

    I don't think Duma directly fought against Naga though. Maybe he instigated the war with the Earth Dragons and Naga punished him for that? If he did fight against Naga, he totally would've got a worse punishment XD
