  1. Seth might indeed seem rude at certain moments when it comes to protect Eirika and talk to her.

    You criticize his obsession to defend her, BubbleTea. Yes, it is due to his love for her, partly. But most of all, it is due to his duty that he is overly protective.

    Objectively speaking, Eirika doesn't nearly have as much combat experience as Ephraim, her constitution is relatively fragile and she is quite vulnerable to her own emotions. Ephraim keeps his emotions in check, has advanced combat experience comparatively to his sister lore wise and is well built to endure the physical turmoils of war. Remember it is him who taught Eirika how to use a sword. Ephraim learned the lance from General Duessel far before he taught Eirika anything in combat, implying he takes fighting far more at heart than his sister, who harbors violence. Cutscenes support the statements I just made about that.

    I am not saying Eirika is weak, nor am I criticizing her for what she is. She is a brave, elegant and kind hearted woman who is willing to learn and to get stronger in order to be a better queen. I am simply saying that while she learns, Seth and Ephraim must make sure she survives to see the day Renais rises as the proeminent power over Grado and the rest of the countries. Plus, the responsibility is mutual. Ephraim cares for his sister, he wants to protect her. But Eirika also cares for him and wants to protect him. She rode to Grado in order to help him, which could be deemed as reckless as what Ephraim did, yet it was admirably noble and brave from her part.

    Seth is here to guide her and to make sure she doesn't make fatal mistakes along the road, with Ephraim's assistance. Ephraim isn't perfect either by the way, yes he is cocky to a certain extent, but not that much. The tactical warfare he waged in Grado before his sister arrived was quite brilliant, given his numbers and limited means. Preferably, I would have retreated to Frelia. So yes, Ephraim was taking a fairly huge risk by charging into Grado like that, but he wasn't helpless or devoid of experience. Seth is here to advise him to avoid being overly reckless. Yet, the ultimate decisions are taken by the Twins, no matter what he advises. He is no regent lord, he is a Knight, period. A vassal. A vassal does not dictate authority to their lord(s) : he or she advises, protects and serves.

    Coming back to Seth's overprotectiveness.

    When you are named by your king as General of Renais's Royal Knights, when you are given the secret of the Twin Bracelets, when you are ENTRUSTED by your king to protect his daughter and son, you do NOT mess around with SECURITY.

    You have ONE chance, PERIOD. You make ONE mistake, she DIES. She dies means you FAILED at upholding the responsibility you took in the name of your king, country and nation. This is not a matter of ego or ''oh my god she's a responsible woman who can take care of herself'', it's a matter of, you ARENT SUPPOSED TO MAKE MISTAKES and no she is not invincible, despite how kickass you might think she is.

    Seth is doing fine. He gives her a lot flexibility in decision making. I mean, isn't it her who wanted to rescue her brother Ephraim by charging into Grado? When you think about it, Eirika has the political authority over her vassals, who obey her truly and with almost no question (questioning arising only when it comes to her security), so I would hardly call her a damsel in distress. I would rather call her a queen in the making, with her flaws and her strong points.

  2. Hello. I am ResidentOzo (or AverageOzo in some places.) I am an amateur musician, as I'm learning piano. And I also like to pixel art. Aside from that I have a passion for FE and the games, so after a very long disappearance from online art communities (like DA) I decided to redo it all. I am currently planning on making an LoZ hFire Emblem, hack. But I have nevr coded before, so I will take on the challenge, and I hope to get some guidance from you guys.

    Thanks.

    If you would like to see some of my works (well, all of them.)

  4. Naw, day 2 of college and I'm still too nervous to go meet anyone other than my roommate and someone I knew from my highs school.

    Im starting my second year of college in 2 weeks,

    Wonder if I'll meet my first girlfriend. gee_wiz_emoticon.gif

    Probably not. I've always, or almost always been, of pessimistic nature toward these sort of things because I find myself old to feel young love. gee_wiz_emoticon.gif

  5. Give me good reasons and I'm in.

    They killed the Apostle and formented a continent wide War that almost awoke the Goddess, threathening to annihilate us all.

    The Herons forment War. A certain Heron led this conspiracy to destroy the world.

    Hence, the Herons must be exterminated to preserve the safety of this World.

    There is your reason.
