Obviously the memes are getting less interesting. Therefore time to bring out the big guns. Aka the fat ones

[spoiler=Gheb]Portrait_gheb_fe08.png

[spoiler=Long Random nonsense created by Gheb worshipers]Upon reading Albin0's exposition about one of the many theories regarding the enigmatic Fort Rigwald, I feel enlightened by his explanation and feel compelled to expand on your thoughts. The analysis is proficient, but he forgot to consider the presence of Gheb, the leader of Fort Rigwald.

Gheb bears quite a resemblance to the Egyptian god Geb, who is the god of the earth and the father of both Osiris and Isis. Being the god of the earth, he uses his power to bind Tana to her 2x2 prison, but the most significant event that transpires is the confrontation of Tana by Gheb prior to Tana's imprisonment. When the two first meet, there is a sharp juxtaposition in that Gheb represents the earth while Tana represents the sky. Since Gheb has the air of the god Geb, he is able to overwhelm Tana, thus rendering her attempts to resist control futile. It strengthens Albin0's argument as to include Gheb into the equation as he creates the misbalance of power that forces Tana into her hellish prison.

As for Amelia, it is clear as to Gheb's significance behind Amelia's actions. Specifically put, Gheb's control over the earth overpowers Amelia's attempts to run, and as such she is at first tentative to move, and thus waits until Ephraim's army goes to lay siege to fort Rigwald. In light of this, it can also be said that Amelia represents opportunity; another contrast between her and Tana. Amelia waits until she finds the opportunity to possibly escape Gheb's torture house called Fort Rigwald, and after assessing the situation finds a chance at escaping when Ephraim's army opens the gate. Of course, as is stated in the original exposition, Amelia is then pitted with a predicament, as her fate is sadly sealed from the day she was ordered to serve time in Fort Rigwald. The solution is indeed to keep moving; creating distance between her and Tana serves to Amelia's benefit. Gheb lies in the middle; he is the bond that connects Amelia and Tana through contrast, and in separating herself from Tana, Amelia is breaking the bond that ties her to Tana and is in turn freeing herself from Gheb.

I hope this clears up some misconceptions about Fort Rigwald. The symbolic importance is indeed significant, and it is to the player's benefit that he or she acquires background knowledge before traversing through historical grounds.

So yes we got the Sacred Stones Fatman.

I can't deny that Gheb is pretty iconic as far as FE chapter boss, and I don't mind him as far as that goes. But I thought Gheb FE was pretty bad.

Hextator posted up some chat logs where he was doing a sort of weird crossover of Gheb and The Dark Knight, and that was pretty funny imo.

Getting it out of the way so no one requests Gheb.

Romhack was painfully tedious but funny enough considering all there was to work with was a fatman.

okay

this should be one of them since the entire draw of the fandom was literally that he raped children.

Wow...I remember him clearly being about to rape tana, but was that actually in the game too?

EDIT: No you know what, I don't want to know.

I don't think it was actually in the game. IIRC he said something creepy to Tana but I don't think it was that explicit.
