Datamine quotes shows that Felix and Annette could oppose you in AM, leads to speculation there was a possible route split here.

Or that Rhea repeatedly talks about how important you were, that she would rather die for you, then shield you from both imperial army and orbital strikes, again makes little sense in Verdant Wind. Since only in Silver Snow Rhea confesses to you who you really were to her, or why she would not let another Zanado happened to you.

So is Golden Deer final level, if not more And Verdent Wind was probably the one that copying Silver Snow, not the other way around

Only reason it's S not A+ probably because the game mechanism only allows one exclusive paired ending with Byleth.

Cipher isn’t localized outside Japan, so direct translation is the best we can

But what if Byleth died before Sothis awaken? Like he died in a battle and buried in a mass grave? or ship wreck in the sea? Wouldn't her crest stone became lost forever? Or Rhea was so confident Sothis would save Byleth like the game's opening?

That's not possible, since Wilhelm John I bears Crest of Seiros, so his "crest" can't be on a golem. Maybe church named their weapons based on Imperial heroes more likely.

The character on the card is called ポー (Poe) So she is not one of four claimed by Famitsu.

I doubt TH developer would really openly self incriminating that he/she is leaking. Don't leak usually done through proxy (ask another person to post, or even passed through multiple people) so they are less likely to be caught?

First one clearly was in Archbishop's audience room, but what was the second room and that magic she uses? I don't remember any magic that either suck away enemy weapon or rain down actual swords on them. How do we know that Constanze is a pegasi knight?

In Crimson Flower ending Byleth titled Wing of Hegemony so it’s probably how Edelgard was referred by IniSys.

No, not mine, I found it on Twitter. The two other routes have same common names "The Kingdom" and "The Alliance"

Quite interesting, the same guidebook gives extra names of Crimson Flower as "Hegemony Path", while Silver Snow as "The Empire" It kind makes sense as Byleth built his own United Fodlan as a new empire in Silver Snow(despite not calling an empire), that or United Fodlan as an inheritor to Adrestian legacy. BTW, Resistant Army in Japanese is called The New Born Army if translated directly, not sure if any special etymology behind it.

A support with Flayn https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Seteth/Supports#A_Support_5

Then there is the unanswered question on how did Sothis even know what a demonic beast is, consider she was the first dragon to be killed, before all these began. The game actually allow you to question her, but she would refuse to elaborate. And how did Agarthan have their own crests? Hopefully they will answer all these later.

Seteth said she died in battle, said that he failed to protect her. Also they met in the church itself doesn't really argue either way in my opinion, from Seteth's line after rescuing Rhea in Silver Snow it seems Enbarr was the place when Nabatean survivors first gather together after Zanado. We also need to remember Flayn has unique crest herself.

From people I know who bought the book, they said the overall quality was pretty bad. There were tons of typo or editing errors (like mismatched screenshots), some info are also clearly from datamine/pre-release build rather than actually in game So it puts somewhat doubt on their source of info.

Kind of yes and no. I know that question from advisor, but it seems to fit only before chapter 4 based on her personality. Once her support chain unlocks, Rhea wants to bond with Byleth very much, as in C support she told you to visit her any time, and that your visit makes her the day B support she wonders if you were avoiding her (saying no to gain support with her)

Well, we know that you really love Cipher and wants to push it to other media But how do you explain Cipher characters not "from this world" without going through Outrealm introduce another setting first? Anna despite not being a physical character until chapter 16, has actually showed up since chapter 2 as pre-battle logistic menu. Cipher has less lore connection than Archanea/Jugdural (which they can easily explain being same universe) or even FEH (since protagonist has power to open portals). Furthermore, it was Cipher team's own decision making so many people against them in other format. How can you expect people welcome them when they repeated refuse to release outside Japan or integrate with other FE titles?(except one time in SoV) Had Cipher being a core cast in FEH since day one, I am sure the idea will be far more acceptable by wider audiences.

There are two groups of monster actually, Giant ones are animals exposed to some kind magic, but everything started with "demonic" were artificially created. They have same gameplay mechanism but different descriptions. Giant Bird: This massive bird has grown to an unnatural size through the absorption of magic. Giant Crawler: This massive worm has grown to an unnatural size through the absorption of magic. Giant Wolf: This massive wolf has grown to an unnatural size through the absorption of magic. -------- Demonic Beast: This Demonic Beast has been twisted into this form by the Imperial Army. It bears a concealed Crest Stone on its forehead. Flying Demonic Beast: An airborne Demonic Beast with enormous wings, this creature is swift and will often dodge attacks. Giant Demonic Beast: A mammoth, bipedal Demonic Beast, this creature is robust, with powerful physical strength.

Ah, didn't she use Demonic Beast as early as in Chapter 11 Holy Tomb?

That's pretty simple actually, because to Rhea the answer to every world problem is Sothis. She grew up under Sothis' utopia when both dragon and human lived in peace and both civilizations were at it's peak, so to bring her back any cost worth it. And she did succeed in 3/4 endings.

Rhea fits quite well for preskip, it's only post skip she's a problem since she joins you only at second to the last chapter. Like she could join you after chapter 4 once you "proved" yourself by getting Sword of the Creator (the same time her support chain opens). As I mentioned earlier, this is also reflected by some of her datamine quotes like tea time, where all but one had pre-skip nature. But even then her lines suggested she was supposedly usable at Shambhla as she clearly told you she will fight, and in battle exchange were mostly between her and Thales. By the same standard both Anna and Jeritza are also problematic lore wise: Anna canonically didn't show up until chapter 16 despite having appearance in some supports and pre-battle shops, unless they will use "multiple Anna" troupe again. Jeritza in Crimson Flower didn't "rejoin" empire until chapter 12, was still known as Death Knight by Manuela until like chapter 14, never revealed his identity in Crimson Flower, so it would be interesting how they will integrate him. Or maybe they will just pull Awakening and disregard the lore....

So maybe Rodrigue could live when certain condition achieved? (A support with Byleth so he cares enough to use Divine Pulse? 🤣)
