I take it that lost Battle Mastery mentioned is the one of taking down the R-Gun Rivale? I'm thankful the equivalent chapter in SRW Alpha is much more easier, the R-Gun only has 4000 HP, hahahaha. Can't really complain about Ingram. Thanks to him it made taking down Euzzeth a much needed difficulty drop after all the struggle that was Laiodeccia.

Heather also appears in an other hack, A Sacred Dawn.

g43ajDx.png2JmC36r.png

also a pegasus knight

Wait, if I remember right, A Sacred Dawn was supposed to... then how does she... ah, nevermind.

[spoiler=ASD details]What I mean is that I thought it took place 20 years after this hack. So seeing Heather still practically the same seems weird to me unless Ray retconned her appearance in the first one. To be honest, I never payed full attention to that other hack's development, unlike this one's.

Heather is either a phoenix or Rei Aynami.

I don't see any other explanation.

Alternatively, she's a (presumably) far less morally dark grey Touko Aozaki from Kara no Kyoukai, meaning she has a ton of backup bodies and her consciousness shifts to one of them whenever her current body dies. (So she's basically a walking Phoenix Mode, is the joke.)

Chapter 18x: Silenced Magic

20PDt1D.png

Hu6zDdO.png

Eliwood gets closer to the Dragon's Gate.

K8Oe60Y.png

But one more obstacle stands in his way.

sdiELih.png

g69g4Jv.png

Uhai's directions check out.

PNvb8Ll.png

dYrfOzn.png

Pn5Ljbt.png

n0TwhMl.png

As the rest go on ahead, Eliwood worries about his father.

M3axdwO.png

Fhwr8cT.png

PhfcX27.png

1HiUjQx.png

Leaf reassures him that he's fine and tells him to remain optimistic.

HtNqJEV.png

QxoXzJs.png

wOty8DX.png

Which seems hard to do right now for some reason.

dmF8ZYl.png

T8gjIBj.png

Up ahead, the two are shouting over Ray trying to spring the upcoming ambush.

ClV5gIA.png

rSSfVYK.png

yNv8oQj.png

Eliwood quickly calms them down.

9hx4lJH.png

Ys2LRXU.png

J4Uv4Pt.png

Not that it matters as the enemy's already aware of them.

awdFemB.png

BjgzfiL.png

uJ1fZ6t.png

He's already planned out everything in meticulous detail to ensure 100% success on eliminating Eliwood.

zSXMgVd.png

1wUJ1tf.png

And the ambush is sprung.

You heard him, let's prepare.

HVgBZ2m.png

Ray, Sanger, and Altenna will sit this one out for now. Gotta save the big guns for the big showdown at the Gate itself.

bITYTtY.png

Tth6byJ.png

AR54gds.png

aYtXacJ.png

I look forward to your performance, because the other one's is lacking.

Uy3jPMd.png

For starters, let's get a preview of Renault's replacement.

by8KIfd.png

vfIH4RO.png

But there was no one. At least the item's still there.

Peculiar. Seems whoever's replacing Renault, if any, will have to remain a secret for now.

Or maybe Renault was removed entirely. Who knows.

c8uerLW.png

7xMqAFB.png

lqfo0AZ.png

The two cavaliers finish up their support.

qWR3VSk.png

And Lynoan gets dangerously close to capping her level, with several chapters still left to go before she can promote.

2XKkuT9.png

I really shouldn't be neglecting this guy.

w0sWVjR.png

As always, one peg unavoidably reaches Merlinus. She's quickly taken care of.

mpBQlCd.png

Marcia tries to keep up with her fellow peg.

xavmPc9.png

Annoying, but it's speed at least.

e0FvXVl.png

Look at those amazing stats.

N7FQmSZ.png

However, she might not be able to make full use of them right now.

S634QqT.png

v8qT94i.png

NVfCu5P.png

iV2KCaG.png

An unknown variable completely ruins his calculations. This opportunity must not be wasted.

More later.

Chapter 18x part 2

97TpmDz.png

We need to hustle before Kishuna leaves and allows Aion to use magic again.

2PhhAS5.png

This kid's gonna kill snowstorms just fine.

IJNHhPq.png

That's great.

7WQUbvl.png

That's not great.

ONEs8AN.png

Neither is that.

w1m81GG.png

And back to great again.

bGbttgQ.png

These two attempt a back attack.

vO3BBvL.png

But we were ready for them.

Up front, we start attacking the helpless Aion.

jBTJSU7.png

Cool, I don't have to steal it.

y27sNc1.png

But it falls on deaf ears.

nylALGt.png

Aion's a little hard to hit.

ieJijl0.png

But he eventually goes down.

SMkfDjn.png

Not again.

jIp7G2Y.png

This is gonna help a lot.

E1B9jVt.png

With Aion dead, Kishuna's now gonna stick around forever until we poke him.

And poke him we will.

e3pVG9f.png

The pegs grow closer.

ur2nO67.png

Oh hey, it's Sad Linoan again.

80ANZYZ.png

As everyone gets into position, Kyo and Luna finish their support.

A7oq4DV.png

Here's how I'd write it: Luna's bored of Alex and wants Kyosuke now, who's just annoyed that now he's got two clingy girls who happen to be ranged specialists.

u35j6mt.png

We take on the hero first. Luna chips away at him while dodging all of his attacks.

oECmnae.png

And she takes him out, earning an Eliwood-like level up.

VzVfKfN.png

The warrior's next. Luna softens him up big time.

fjRAOjD.png

And finishes leveling like so. She's quickly rescued out of the way as the warrior can one shot her.

e4azd5E.png

A few turns of attacking and getting rescued later, Raph takes him out.

V4EjE14.png

And gets stronger for it.

017WLd8.png

Don't worry, this is perfectly fine. The pegs cannot be attacked at all.

2G8g1rN.png

The sniper eventually falls, with Heather getting the finish.

Last is the general. He's on a fort and has a ton of defenses. Magic could take him out easily, but it's currently unavailable.

Unless...

NaGAuiu.png

We remove the magic seal.

CKe9GxY.png

I wonder why Kishuna's combat animation is off in vanilla FE7. It works just fine.

6Bdw5RF.png

After that one poke, everyone takes cover.

fOj2zjW.png

EF4i1dU.png

And Kishuna takes his leave. It's fine, there's no chapter 19xx to get in this run anyway.

mKPgtDs.png

With Kishuna gone, the general goes on the move. Just as planned.

LXFH6sd.png

bkTsmMB.png

K82qUh6.png

rPsrtWr.png

A few magic nukes later, and we're finally all done.

Also, Sakura's achieved maximum thief. I'll need another guiding ring soon.

6ykYqxc.png

Let's get outta here.

ceTlacP.png

VQHd58c.png

nOjAZJA.png

Everyone contemplates on the mysterious figure.

arS9HL9.png

Shh, no spoilers Ray.

PwYm5PS.png

4diT9H9.png

CQyH7qa.png

iNDSMTI.png

NYBC4M9.png

It came, and it went. Can't worry about it now, we have a dad to rescue.

Next time: Dad isn't rescued...

Considering Aion is a palette swap of Marquess Araphen, I find amusing seeing the mug with green hair, remembering the Marquess in this hack discriminates unrealistic hair colors, heh.

I'm actually surprised that the hack made no mention of Aion's resemblance to him. I was gonna bring it up too, but I somehow completely forgot while posting the chapter.

I guess he's a completely unremarkable character after all.

Phew, this chapter's a big one.

Chapter 19: Ancient Beasts

UoFoY24.png

38CNtAK.png

zf6A5ew.png

We're finally here.

ndhoNJu.png

Time for the big showdown.

rOSZqUJ.png

Nax7mTd.png

8M2Ih4l.png

The mysterious place is really affecting Ninian.

8RU0E7Q.png

ueMA1uq.png

Geez Ray, lighten up.

TyLiJWS.png

gHsM024.png

4he48xL.png

FlY8DlH.png

They decide to turn back for now.

hEXRL1J.png

nnJwHAO.png

But it's already too late.

azK8WOz.png

oK99rq2.png

7WFNoLG.png

CU8cxnV.png

m5nPrkJ.png

8tv1DnH.png

Ephidel indulges in his villainy,

cQ7wRK2.png

EOBeSbO.png

syyrMUl.png

getting the heroes all riled up

Hhh9sti.png

yO0bJsv.png

before warping away with Ninian.

37uiixq.png

hNH7FcM.png

Whoa there Ray, there are kids in the group. Like that Kid kid.

GbDhKR6.png

AsYqFAg.png

Ephidel leaves the fighting to Darin.

OrhoTL8.png

Get it yet? He keeps flaunting his skills that he'll never actually show off because he gets killed off without ever getting into a fight. That's the joke!

ejhmWts.png

COvqSPX.png

Anyway, Darin continues to be blinded by ambition and gladly agrees to be their expendable pawn.

jQcpgj0.png

WSaviHw.png

Leaving Ephidel to make his delivery.

8fzPswn.png

QmvJ7RB.png

Elbert continues to defy him.

qVkGmON.png

m0aS3pm.png

But gets shanked for his efforts.

JymYgqg.png

PHVSUWw.png

tBeJ9Mt.png

Ingram prepares to put his plan into motion.

Oh, and some paladin boss taunts Eliwood or something.

YhxHH6g.png

I've got my own preparations to do too. Here are the participants (plus Edmond).

3kI8kEl.png

Luna's gotten really good with the bow.

qLTAfOb.png

hqocjzA.png

So she decides to take up archery full time.

Imagine, a bow-wielding healer. What an innovative concept that has totally never ever been done before or since, right...?

hiChC9h.png

Everyone starts like this so we can kick off the map like so...

yFEOd65.png

Open door,

Dallqtm.png

kill sniper,

AY25eSw.png

profit.

B9VWnOX.png

Just magic, but at least it's magic.

GgvfVfs.png

WTU7YrL.png

Heather consoles Sad Linoan again.

oNqZ3eU.png

Snipers in this hack get +15 crit like swordmasters and berserkers. I need to keep that in mind with enemy snipers.

And then, a new face shows up.

6SbVslU.png

f44p99q.png

Oh, it's that guy from Kid and Karsh's support.

79hzJOe.png

xiq9VtP.png

YHSDWLe.png

*google*

Oh no, another Chrono Cross character. That means yet another lack of attachment from me.

18nxmiE.png

6A6Kbrs.png

c5F2rYF.png

He shares Legault's role, but fortunately not his 6 move. It should be easier to catch him.

rWwZhPc.png

Even though I already have a perfectly good knight.

T1v5Sa4.png

The paladin boss dies or something and drops this.

Vf14Skj.png

lSX6Mz2.png

These two make the perfect team.

MD5AlqR.png

Another gift for Luna.

w89A7au.png

Cool beans.

X5Rq0mz.png

Here's Luna dodging herself.

xjighb8.png

Like I said, no trouble catching him.

kKRoEA9.png

dpmi5H1.png

ma6PlEy.png

qySspaf.png

Edz3zlg.png

How he got into the Fang is a mystery, but crossovers don't usually fret over those sort of things.

YgqEsyX.png

RGLVxiA.png

Viper offers what he knows,

zJ3l80s.png

UNwwARK.png

and his services too as he no longer has any loyalty with the Fang.

jlZaKta.png

zfK0jkh.png

Your services probably won't be needed, though.

More later.

Chapter 19 part 2

zYGrJIS.png

Thieves are starting to show up.

wxhN5wP.png

But we're already upon them. I'll be taking that.

btzLFQp.png

And this too while I'm at it.

LjoieH0.png

HWZxZi9.png

One level left for these two.

mTlkgph.png

Mine.

9TyQjil.png

Can he hit three capped stats?

ykB2Ai0.png

Attacks plinking on little girls amuse me.

oQKlOw8.png

Holy crap, she finally gained defense!

hUvuA3g.png

OIU6Gx6.png

Transformation sequence go!

qgEhdPE.png

B0hJeDr.png

If only Tomoyo can see her now.

hE4nnTP.png

And taking a cue from FE8, sages gain staffs and light magic.

Mia and Sakura are such good friends that they both even share the same weapon types.

GQrW9aA.png

cZidQaF.png

Hey, Marcia's supposed to be the bad peg.

vvmMZuZ.png

Kyosuke finally takes his suit to its absolute limit.

Darn, he missed capping def.

TET53Fc.png

Sakura starts training her new staff powers.

EFQ890A.png

WPB91iF.png

More loot.

Z49vTFH.png

Time for Alteisen's upgrade.

bgEGA9t.png

aK8Iq8t.png

Say hello to the Alteisen Riese.

It'll be later before it sees any action, though.

nItO37y.png

AA48YDE.png

After several turns of nothing, these reinforcements finally show up.

Here, have a level montage.

aIFEuTP.png

HemjR3o.png

nG0U05i.png

QtuXIsZ.png

jRbldD2.png

Again, I prioritize exp over ratings.

IhU3KNw.png

But eventually, the well dries up.

LQZEpcp.png

Now she can use that barrier staff we just got.

zFYe0aj.png

The fight against Darin starts with a chip.

4Kn1t1m.png

A rather big chip.

FKITOJr.png

Which also caps her level, so she's obviously not getting the kill.

tc3O7DT.png

fbf4nmb.png

qtD9NHS.png

Ray steps up to the plate.

vEDTAAR.png

lstFK1p.png

Wb3JJ67.png

V40MTSg.png

And makes him change weapons.

ww4IX02.png

iMFDdoY.png

NExhC8H.png

YBMNFAk.png

Making it easier to sword him to death.

czjnjDa.png

He makes one last gasp for help.

YxEAmzE.png

But he has long since been abandoned.

RnNCbPc.png

And he leaves Ray with this awesomeness.

cYg593N.png

Afterwards, several more turns are spent on the secret shops.

And no, you can't preview them on the prep screen.

oKfmXYv.png

kyqwuEK.png

Tempting, but they can be acquired elsewhere.

ZvxAPMi.png

Let's try the other one.

P90ymS0.png

That's more like it. Two physics, please.

4FGjqi0.png

Everything's finally all done.

2QeMgIZ.png

They briefly pity the guy they just killed.

040s1cw.png

5E1VCDY.png

Then it's onwards to the big rescue.

More later.

RDELma9.png

jRgYaAf.png

gUvNPuT.png

Eliwood searches for his father.

sUwqtAF.png

Not helping, Megan.

NvWN1jq.png

I8g9P02.png

There he is.

OPOHVO9.png

qorlSY9.png

gxoZgYF.png

And Ninian too.

vK9hSUr.png

n4OjBu3.png

AgG6Omv.png

Eliwood takes Ninian.

1PCdhtH.png

F7lMUlv.png

While Ray takes Elbert.

CGvLFFQ.png

ZtuxSse.png

4avgxtb.png

But their escape is blocked.

v43xlrA.png

Qv2dps1.png

4t3cvR0.png

As if, Kyosuke can turn him to mush.

v3Nxoon.png

364g3Me.png

But it seems Jaffar was only there to distract them from leaving, as he has more pressing matters elsewhere whatever those may be.

zhBovU4.png

WTHiKa8.png

DJsbLhk.png

The ceremony goes underway.

Tra4GWt.png

KBtvA4o.png

iuxoWeT.png

Elbert is hit with a super move.

HK8zEFz.png

BcTw94V.png

3antWQH.png

TJqvQWq.png

zSYWSRR.png

And Ninian opens the Gate.

You know it's serious when the dialogue doesn't bring up the unedited CG at all.

dorPrvO.png

...and it's stupid again.

There's a time and a place for that, and now is really not the time nor the place for it.

o8sqlGs.png

Everything starts shaking.

wAUdop6.png

Dude, tone it down will you? Even Kelik wasn't that vulgar.

J1PBQrF.png

Thank you, Captain Obvious.

RxC9Hwk.png

ju4V3SB.png

And now we're all screwed.

SI591wN.png

AGhyXkS.png

Ingram must really be bored if he's doing generic apocalypses.

And just when things look really bad...

h4co52T.png

...it gets even worse.

2dVEUJK.png

yFbuYLk.png

3OnK4xP.png

Nils attempts his own rescue.

lmaWHhn.png

5kNctox.png

Nice job, Naruto.

5fcMxFr.png

Hnhnl9m.png

Ingram looks very annoyed.

He warps away to safety and leaves Ephidel to his fate.

95Qq083.png

xcQmU7x.png

WWrIBDx.png

r9Ru8OF.png

JwV6oRS.png

Ephidel died as he lived: As a joke.

PQoDwTI.png

Q2vK7G1.png

The dragon is gone.

kNRKi0v.png

Much to Ingram's chagrin.

8sbcJon.png

Yh35zqM.png

He moves to capture the siblings.

01ORYU8.png

TDaBVpO.png

But gets shanked for his efforts.

W8QQpu5.png

aJcMgYD.png

urVN1iL.png

Leaving him with no choice but to flee.

n0yqicU.png

WGw5PLP.png

FAWqlLS.png

80RS7xM.png

SDsvFio.png

And the rescue ends with Elbert saying his final farewell.

PneZdrn.png

S2GsT4N.png

And no, that's not a vision. That really actually happened.

Next time: More arena abusing, maybe...?

Maybe it's my Chrono bias, but I do find it a shame that detail about the Acacia Dragoons (or at least just General Viper, but to me that would sound a little unusual if it was just him alone) being involved dies as soon as it was brought up (even worse considering Glenn and Karsh are early recruits in this hack). Oh well...

Well, we're about halfway done with this hack. The stage is now set for the epic latter half, featuring more characters not native to FE7, new ways to fight familiar battles, and a race to stop the Time Diver and his plan to summon dragons.

Chapter 20: Aftermath

qgK1oD9.png

KXhI5c2.png

You could be a little nicer about it.

tFYhN4r.png

v9Jw9yF.png

Seriously, what the hell?

5qu4kUc.png

How are you his friend again? Because had that not just been narration, someone would've slapped the rude out of you.

46Hx6aa.png

Anyway, the siblings discuss what happened to them since they and Eliwood last met. Basically, the Black Fang finally caught up with them recently.

08HfIUO.png

Xf7IikI.png

EApAvQG.png

UVHr1OO.png

They were both taken captive along with Elbert who managed to free them, but their escape attempt failed and Nils ended up back on Valor. He went into hiding until he sensed the Gate's opening and arrived there just in time for his super special awesome rescue.

sH6zOaN.png

6pyU0Wc.png

n1djiXW.png

9V2q2e3.png

Ninian tries to reassure that no one else was to blame for her own shortcomings

kMv7Fld.png

6ajJQK9.png

The discussion then moves to Ingram. The siblings can only open the Gate, the actual summoning is done by Ingram himself.

W0FzqbW.png

You tell me, you're the one who hacked him into the game.

gw0zNSK.png

0ZHuYsh.png

His true motives can only be speculated, but it nonetheless involves destruction which definitely sounds like something Ingram would do.

fzio7DW.png

Dragon summoning required quintessence, which is why Ingram attempted to start a rebellion that would've turned into a full war.

VqZce84.png

KvwpOLS.png

Draining Elbert and his escorts was his backup plan, which they just barely thwarted.

lhxOpBE.png

yGPxM2F.png

But they didn't thwart it in time to save Elbert.

44vXwWO.png

What, you don't wanna stick around to see if you'd win that 100 bucks?

DGncTMm.png

pWubpyv.png

Ninian feels really guilty for her actions.

kJ0RO9D.png

fDE2TDd.png

vwB4yL8.png

Eliwood reassures her that she's not to blame for what Ingram forced her to do.

jxSMSt0.png

And then the Black Fang catches up to them.

vhAKKuK.png

74RnmNG.png

CxtfVOZ.png

Outside, everyone speculates on Ingram's next move.

VfFYtaa.png

AXJYdXw.png

They know it's only a matter of time before he comes back.

x4gAA4t.png

MZnqqKH.png

But that's for later. There's an imminent battle coming right now.

pZfSUTP.png

EYZc0Is.png

Eliwood joins in, hoping to prevent civilian casualties.

jM9Zu3S.png

owQbqPU.png

And Nils is told to take cover.

h15xleI.png

b6PsnER.png

This ragtag group should be enough, and also they need to level too. Shops have iron and steel, basic tomes, and heal and mend staffs. The silver card should help in stocking up on them.

h9qYzT1.png

hoKSN4d.png

thafCxe.png

xjCADTb.png

As the battle begins, Ninian insists on helping.

EbZFZL1.png

6WFLZzG.png

Nils finally concedes.

3QNvESL.png

gpkMXjg.png

Y'know, not everything needs a name.

Ra8QQCx.png

WhI4QBe.png

Eliwood attempts to dissuade her.

yMsq8CY.png

UdDpWDV.png

m9eycqI.png

But Ninian changes his mind with a demonstration of her powers.

6Di3ALJ.png

q8ev2Pn.png

So Eliwood lets her stay. He'll be glad he did.

WnaBimK.png

And yes, that first buff was free.

More later.

Chapter 20 part 2

3eAH9m1.png

Let's start by lighting up the place.

TUNwU80.png

Man, look at that range.

YUt2LdW.png

Oh look, another chance to beat up on that worst female lord ever. Another one also appears with the coming reinforcements.

0fzq1uZ.png

That fire would normally hurt a lot more. Then again, she missed.

Wpdi1nB.png

52apxXO.png

Villages get raided.

TGh9Z5l.png

Mia finally starts gaining levels again.

fJn1m5b.png

There's a more proper display. That defense buff's just too good.

PLTrSxX.png

You're kinda like Raymond but with an axe.

ZxUn5vY.png

Sweet, but I'll need a lot more of these.

y9MOi7Q.png

Just one away from capping mag.

dpIJbZ6.png

5QBOeFB.png

The pegs' support end with Sad Linoan standing up for herself. She'll sadly achieve great things on her own.

RpU57fO.png

We get a brief glimpse of the boss before the fog covers him up again.

HZX78F3.png

He still has something worth stealing.

t49DxaF.png

uSzz6hT.png

Mia finally gets started on her light magic training.

cU9y2od.png

How dare you contribute nothing except helping to introduce the English community to Fire Emblem! You deserve death!

su8DHk8.png

This pirate thought he could pull a fast one on me.

tHhvElh.png

Archer on ballista also bites it.

dzY6TxA.png

And we claim Altenna's property.

4fn1o7h.png

Maybe when I find another whip.

q3NRmHb.png

The reinforcements start pouring in. Better be careful not to cross that invisible line yet.

zZG7s27.png

You are definitely not getting that whip.

KbTwZ4m.png

I'm starting to wonder why I'm still using this guy.

uLNO1ri.png

Especially when this guy already exists.

LvUNumL.png

And that's all the villages.

rQtsZUE.png

Hey, she actually wants to steal now.

5Rx00BY.png

I wonder if I can still make something out of you.

9NP2zij.png

Eh, dancer level.

The reinforcements finally dry up, leaving me to try to make something out of Karsh.

i3mA83w.png

Also, Eliwood finally fills out all his support slots.

nupckiU.png

There was an image that perfectly represented this, but I unfortunately cannot find it right now.

So, let's hit the arena.

DLW7VDf.png

9q1Twfm.png

2lamIeW.png

T4JBdGD.png

Fighters have it bad in the arena, constantly going up against sword wielders with steel swords. He still had a 100% win rate regardless, which totally had nothing to do with a defense buff that stays if their turn ends with them rescued.

Anyway, that sucks. You're out, and unfortunately by association so is Kid.

jAVjWBX.png

Sakura mends and torches her way to this disappointing level up. At least she can use physics now.

HYw7tEG.png

C7OBHpf.png

Karsh at least still has one last use for me.

kn7di2b.png

The thing is stolen, and then we move in for the kill.

JI4kGk5.png

55QAZ3h.png

9AoAsWY.png

yknPuZ2.png

pRIEqXF.png

Eliwood levels up from not killing him.

sBD6ccy.png

Ninian gives him a second shot.

B8WKqv9.png

LdcFwgN.png

QCkHBDQ.png

And Eliwood levels up again from actually killing him.

sEh2aTE.png

Rh0TeRZ.png

aUPKSzb.png

Though they failed to save Elbert, they can still save more lives.

kM5pzks.png

6w11iah.png

But they'll need help, and Uther's just the man to give it.

79uhZF5.png

I could've sworn I saw Ray smirk just a little when he said that. I think it even sounded just a tiny bit sarcastic too.

Od2hTim.png

zVFlvAv.png

Unbeknownst to Eliwood, Hector is currently occupied with things of the utmost import.

oOVUpK6.png

Ray thinks he's making more insulting potshots, but trust me. There's a very good reason why Hector is unavailable in this hack.....

J3TGzFm.png

NSTpY5R.png

qw88PA4.png

Leaf meanwhile sent news to Eleanora of Elbert's death.

nPopSXK.png

Elbert's nobility to his very end reminded him of his own parents.

XMLB1Ea.png

hcXfOiQ.png

Eleanora, meanwhile, seems to have responded by sending someone to them.

6ETGEUB.png

S4f3PqX.png

gGvE90R.png

Plum here first like, reassures them that Eleanora is perfectly fine.

SWHDR1k.png

boKwiv0.png

Ygbrtc2.png

TwnJQWI.png

Then tells them that she like, was sent to join them.

Eliwood considers it, but ultimately totally accepts. He'll just like, ask Uther to have Ostia reinforce Pherae.

PCCDLNw.png

rGb3f6e.png

PUme314.png

For sure.

vmOuF6e.png

I was?

P6sDNWR.png

2IvbyAP.png

5sd1hqC.png

Yeah, power of friendship! Ingram doesn't stand a chance!

rrXSdas.png

Speaking of which...

INQUIRY: DOES LIMSTELLA = ROBOT NOW?

U1Mr1RJ.png

J6hDpHp.png

Ingram has gone into hiding to recover.

9NstEGE.png

jgs2anY.png

In the meantime, his minions will carry out his will.

MtRINUR.png

AdPjfGi.png

a3rBO3W.png

Oh crap, the Four Fangs got an upgrade.

Anyone powerful enough is fair game, faction is not an issue.

Next time: Nils faints.

Looking them side by side, if I didn't knew better, I would think Leaf and Plum were twins.

I'd say, having the Morphs unchanged it makes Ingram looks out of place, even if it's kinda the point. Maybe if the trio had been other characters instead... hmm...

FUVZCSf.png

Typical. You lose a bet, and you quickly try to back out of it.

s5cS2Ty.png

TqSDxca.png

vLPVKzn.png

That's right, keep ignoring it.

Jj0t0Xa.png

But you still owe me 100 bucks.

4YYrawJ.png

At the Black Fang's snow fortress, the Neo Four Fangs are assembled.

Roll call!

QrjOXvu.png

XHphMM0.png

xp3cMod.png

All of them are OCs.

zHBIbHz.png

Sonia gives them their mission.

B1ehGZY.png

2aZOsd2.png

Which they gladly accept.

Jack, however, seems to have reservations about it.

CbhtOis.png

cYFhFw9.png

tIOwN8D.png

g8wzMyL.png

dLoSe57.png

But he'll still perform his duty to the Fang nonetheless.

Ar2vTls.png

JkaV9Wp.png

dV0XMPF.png

And the four are sent out.

4TQ8S4E.png

isUwM8a.png

Meanwhile, our heroes have come to a fortress at Ostia's outskirts.

4AtXibY.png

s1eXrlA.png

To avoid enemy spies, Uther will meet them there in secret.

9XyAEvm.png

BrLauj7.png

SYNaP7p.png

Yeah, what do you mean? It's not like Ray is Uther's brother or anything.

S41AaQc.png

WDfnKIg.png

Nils appears exhausted.

KIrN6K3.png

0tOKrQh.png

Very exhausted.

YMWT5Q1.png

BWjgXFI.png

Ot9dfg7.png

i8GQ4Gc.png

And he's not to be moved because...?

diyB0uO.png

...gameplay reasons.

DqL2zk1.png

iIrAV9p.png

Outside, mercenaries have appeared.

vfXsTQa.png

Bleak here seeks fame and glory, and attacking Eliwood is just the ticket he needs.

oy8Rtuf.png

nFMjOeg.png

EzZVl7W.png

66OLGwJ.png

Kathy chastises him for going against the team's original ideals.

QAJbedl.png

5E889DX.png

CD5DoCj.png

BQh2Ado.png

Ideals that apparently bored him.

7i1FtdP.png

hiIYPsO.png

Y7HDaDP.png

Kathy runs off as Bleak prepares for battle.

qYW8Nzs.png

lxfFOP6.png

7CjBnVc.png

UHfYvPV.png

We better prepare too.

jUVLrzM.png

Our party, plus the two lords, Ray, and Sanger.

NWfq1sW.png

zKLipPv.png

KpSGhWb.png

Altenna whips it good.

sMB57Fp.png

We're ready to protect Nils.

And by "protect Nils", I mean "kill all the enemies".

UaUQfF1.png

gDjn3Cv.png

So like, how good are you?

sELYL8S.png

geYSMoN.png

Predictably, she's like totally better than that Isadora hag.

vdu20Mq.png

And over here, Heath's replacement is an NPC instead of an enemy and she even has her own team of generics too.

wl6PgRZ.png

SX68oJr.png

Now I'm glad I didn't waste time on Nanna.

More later.

Chapter 21 part 2

D8ZSOaz.png

The map starts with Sakura opening the door.

Z51oVS7.png

On her turn, Kathy thanks her by healing her even though she's already at full HP.

Sq5bKrz.png

The generics go to town. These guys are actually pretty competent. In fact, the peg was the only casualty in the end.

sC9qrqA.png

And more generics show up.

vEJUOF7.png

ZIzxeig.png

Bringing along a familiar face.

huZPWkx.png

A face with very underwhelming stats at this point. His two subordinates even have higher levels and stats than him.

B8WdwNs.png

It was very convenient that she moved closer to our starting position.

7awutHb.png

bFtCkQK.png

vLt69CR.png

uHQhT47.png

RiG3zZq.png

Eliwood quickly understands her plight and takes her in.

rIThn7q.png

Knock knock.

dHks5D5.png

It's Altenna.

ossFZG2.png

I like to imagine that this gif is what actually happens every time Kyosuke uses his stake:

RBVGbjN.gif

(There was another gif where it fired Claymore missiles, but I couldn't find it.)

syPYS0O.png

Excellent, you'll go well with your new support partner that we just got.

XjfPpRp.png

Might as well.

AX8vi5R.png

MSrcDeO.png

YYcC4t5.png

utqZrdT.png

Y3hDEA0.png

Welcome back, the bench is that way.

l3v9qZp.png

I get the kill instead of the generics, so I actually get the dropped item.

O8QoG64.png

Look what I got for you, Raph.

W4YTLiE.png

Kaching.

eNWBotK.png

Luck is on his side.

tEBmKYK.png

And here's him dodging his support partner.

oF9N3qU.png

Like, shopping spree!

XKYOnak.png

I buy 3 barriers, a torch staff, another physic...

AhL32Ev.png

...and this overpowered-looking thing here.

ko6GVdW.png

Leaf would be proud.

1wbivFT.png

If I work on him, he might become on par with or better than Luna. We'll see.

XzQvpQf.png

Let's look at Bleak here as we approach him.

VfrMryx.png

DoKFSNa.png

He has that overpowered-looking weapon, so we'll be sticking with ranged attacks.

1YQur8X.png

odW7E4K.png

Kathy still tries to reason with him.

1MBYArS.png

UTrNfPp.png

But he just will not be persuaded.

HqEtszr.png

So she walks away with only this level up and nothing else.

4jC3Mx6.png

I really should leave him to thieving and supporting Altenna, putting him in the front lines is a major risk.

fDMPEyL.png

I need another guiding ring.

8yhfKxp.png

The generic troub saves Matthew from the brink of death. Yes, half HP is almost dead for thieves.

m5Ql4og.png

At least he's fixing his issues now.

YNlrsXh.png

6b31QUR.png

jUIjvqi.png

Great going there.

jQOmI4i.png

Ray puts down his own creation.

6Ifqk9e.png

And his future becomes bleak.

a3DmsAO.png

His, however, is still bright.

lkRPDoT.png

And this thing.

buFbm7K.png

With their leader defeated, the remaining mercs scatter.

Later after the battle, Uther finally arrives.

ASja6HJ.png

3r73XS7.png

2nkyVPK.png

W500mWv.png

Why were you worried about him? Is he like your brother or something?

cEI7GHL.png

N98gfHB.png

As Uther extends his condolences, Eliwood tells him everything that's transpired regarding their encounter with Ingram.

ZgwFn5l.png

jxnV4V7.png

Uther asks for time to mull it over.

59mcDry.png

MJvQCCr.png

OrVhQnG.png

PTAwpjK.png

pLs3EAX.png

They consider their options, but ultimately decide that it's all up to them to stop Ingram.

xTNc9xk.png

It's off to work we go.

But before that, Uther has made his decision.

8BqmW3O.png

mP4mGJe.png

Everyone's ready to go.

6oZBAD3.png

pCd5OhD.png

Uther makes use of Ninian's power.

XSls4Tl.png

AMoKp9Q.png

b4nrlIN.png

5PnYuFs.png

And discovers Ingram's whereabouts.

qrUBKPS.png

8Tr1GXJ.png

Oh yeah, Grandbell. I've forgotten about them.

CQ3qccb.png

L5BPRZT.png

WSYtyHl.png

There's still time to stop Ingram.

96zthqS.png

But Uther suggests going the opposite direction instead.

EUwoERC.png

FyI6zAE.png

To find the living legend.

Next time: Sand.

Well, I guess that's one less to enjoy the Hard Mode Bonus if there was a Hard Mode to play. I think.

Plum is a princess? I'm gonna guess that won't go anywhere due to lack of supports and stuff.

Chapter 22: Legendary Dunes

EL18SaG.png

GyjObqo.png

Normally, people don't willingly venture into such hostile environments.

3hkfd7q.png

2INkJtB.png

But there's someone there that Eliwood must meet.

8LllnBT.png

Be sure to bring plenty of water.

pJvlL7M.png

EJWzO3d.png

Otherwise, you'll end up like him.

VawWjHj.png

UArMWnx.png

The girls somehow don't share his exhaustion.

2CA4dDj.png

FjG6H7G.png

AtmHs5f.png

This is apparently due to game mechanics.

HrdwqbD.png

laqaVT4.png

WW0GiNW.png

*insert lol vision here*

fBkOfa6.png

ooPQJcY.png

Their search for the living legend has come up empty so far.

XWMZzHD.png

blwBTA9.png

JeiPXru.png

Eliwood's kindness confuses Ninian.

GtUg60u.png

D7dG5Cu.png

CV3EZMY.png

If he only knew, but let's not get too far ahead of ourselves here.

y95VXvZ.png

Somewhere, the living legend himself senses someone approaching. Jenny assumes it was Chris before being corrected.

qOMYZ1P.png

7iQeOx3.png

She's still concerned about him nonetheless.

0EYfbLM.png

BSMT6bO.png

2Uz75ss.png

But she's confident that he'll make it back okay.

Unless he's not an overpowered sage, then he might be in trouble.

Po36MrF.png

A decent gesture, but Athos simply finds it funny due to his immortality.

OLvocl8.png

KwX5hxN.png

He appreciates the happiness that she brings to his life.

UNWNRBj.png

G9gKBEP.png

qR7YHbc.png

4dAgXT0.png

Good thing too, because that happiness is about to become fleeting...

JvcSME5.png

Pt5Hzxv.png

500AjSk.png

Outside, Eliwood chances upon the aforementioned bandits.

And kinda feels out of the loop too.

Lg2fw7x.png

Oh good, he's still a sage.

Wonder if that means she's also still a sniper.

jqq3L7x.png

And these two are still Paul and Jasmine.

9ZXZ4a6.png

SYRODxw.png

Unlike in the original, the "thing" here was specifically mentioned to be a tome.

Does that mean I'll get it use it later?

WPS1Hal.png

nLUu0oW.png

SMDABRS.png

pmEtNVy.png

Anyway, the bandits move to take it by force.

NNXgON5.png

oTu4ogN.png

We need to get to him quickly.

dk0T4FI.png

mWT1unm.png

BCOyAT1.png

op2syJ1.png

uIh2L65.png

Because if I don't, he'll probably wipe out all the enemies all by himself.

SDqwEU7.png

fH4cgYs.png

As seen here, he's very capable of doing just that.

vfYs1Hb.png

Hey, I can make a comparison here. They're about equal, except Sakura is faster and has more res than def.

oLkWbE0.png

We're ready to airlift him outta there. I just hope he doesn't move too far away.

8wLv6iw.png

S9Y3i5c.png

While the rest handle the enemies,

xmyav6v.png

Eliwood heads south to meet someone.

50XbKma.png

Ooh, res. The desert's magic must be rubbing off on her.

Suddenly, a brief sandstorm occurs. And from it emerges...

q00Tvlx.png

Aah! Another Bugeyes!

O5tN9qD.png

WHbGGFS.png

His search for buried treasure gets him involved in the battle.

i9cd7mG.png

Let's make sure he's on our side.

rn55QTp.png

mrZ1bCB.png

qEvlg5W.png

rT2LdLa.png

Welcome to the team, Bugeyes 2.

GnCURJE.png

EAKNS9f.png

This guy's a special class. He seems to be just a berserker without the crit bonus, but I wonder.....

8kfp3Hd.png

As I perform the rescue, notice how the surrounding enemies suddenly evaporated.

NpQM3Tp.png

C'mon, you can do better than that.

j2bPscW.png

Bugeyes 2 holds onto Chris to stop his rampage.

yCEgVF3.png

It took Raph picking his killer axe and killing to finally pull off a crit. Witness the rare brigand critical.

DX3VCjD.png

Let's visit the map's only house.

WPkpqWq.png

It's a cameo from FE6, and she can finally blink too!

RZ2a7hG.png

4wkElh3.png

And one that's far away from the bones.

FqYpWFm.png

Hmm, I wonder...

RRkMLDB.png

It's true! That thief title isn't just for show, he can steal too. And also use lockpicks, maybe?

Anyway, now my thieves are free to promote.

hUBJbLw.png

But that's a long way off. For now, they'll keep stealing.

1azRONz.png

Where's a guiding ring when you need it?

BPk0GdV.png

Let's chat with our overpowered sage here.

vWQU3Fp.png

k3BpCb6.png

That was productive. And no, he doesn't join; that's for later.

ePVw7Oe.png

Now that's a finish.

XGf2Qb5.png

WlmJdjg.png

There's a guiding ring!

ZtuuKkV.png

AtfK4rg.png

NHAf0SU.png

yg6E9JW.png

Snowstorms beware.

OMQyccZ.png

He doesn't just get anima magic, he also starts staffs at D instead of E. He can start mending right away.

CHW60dc.png

The magic girls continue to rule the desert.

Xwl1RnB.png

It's hero time.

55IcUSq.png

MRUs1YK.png

Now he can kill even without picking his killer axe.

UV3KW19.png

Hey, not bad. There might be a whip with your name on it in the future.

cPEhjKb.png

Bugeyes 2 might not see any action, so here's his combat sprite.

qDALIlg.png

I might need two whips.

oaAYFSc.png

Hmm, I wonder again...

Y2orHZk.png

xjpl44E.png

Q9F1Fcf.png

The special convo is indeed edited.

TTGXxQo.png

This part about buried treasure is still the same.

umJh3EJ.png

But he still likes the sound of it.

YwVz2D2.png

oJXxkOe.png

With only the bosses and an unmoving berserker left, it's time to go treasure hunting.

f1G07Mb.png

Hmm, I wonder yet again...

PaulxOH.png

Oh, there's nothing. Guess you have to be an actual thief and its promoted classes to guarantee getting the item.

dFZM4jR.png

Like so.

YjsnUL7.png

While Matthew finds the items immediately,

ZyFFFBH.png

it took Bugeyes 2 a few turns to find this one.

I'm not sure I'll get any more pirates to use that on. I only got one pirate, and he didn't stay a pirate for very long.

oL9jkmH.png

Edmond levels up from all the mending.

rSCZYZe.png

I forgot to screencap Matthew digging up the light brand.

a8Kn4nI.png

7pCT1i0.png

And that's all the treasure.

Ej9pqgO.png

Dancer level.

7q2AwRt.png

Let's get some supports before we end this.

b4due0R.png

So Heath is Sanger, but why is Priscilla another Linoan? She's already Lyn and Florina. How many Linoan mugs do you need?

It's a little hard to tell, but is that actually Angry Linoan?

YCYNWqk.png

Let's do this one, probably all the way since Eliwood already has Lynoan.

4HK2pKF.png

More like Lord Bugeyes, am I right?

hr3xgOj.png

Alright, that's all the treasure and supports. Let's beat those bosses.

uvzPtLc.png

zJGcKef.png

They're pretty tough and can actually support each other, but that usually isn't a factor.

nmNvFX5.png

thaPwxl.png

It took a while, but Jasmine eventually goes down.

py3Ybl2.png

9lATzzW.png

SXSWBUD.png

Altenna gets impatient and one shots Paul. So that's that, then.

gtPZ7bd.png

o6tLo2Z.png

Lopsided for them, that is.

7YBpplM.png

Chris of course knows who Eliwood's referring to and will gladly take him there to meet him.

x8RGr6l.png

XJTRjyN.png

AtPYRYs.png

But first, he pays his respects to his creator.

pQMeTJ1.png

JnJHJRK.png

If she's based on any actual real life friends, please tell me they don't really talk like that.

IIIgbFs.png

Yuo5oqF.png

Okay, enough of that. Let's keep it moving.

c7WPCU3.png

I'd be surprised if I didn't get enough exp for the side chapter. Of course I accept.

v3wuMbe.png

kXMF84Z.png

And by doing so, the quicksands get activated. They first claim Raymond...

PHQzQK3.png

Then Lynoan...

d36u0y9.png

And finally Eliwood.

Next time: Magic is banned, again.

And that's where Hector's Lord class and animation went. Well, when you only have so much to work with...

I'm gonna guess Fae was talking about Chris with the "searching for treasure" thing, if it wasn't referring to Milanor.

Now I just realized, seeing the Lords' levels it's clear which Ch23 you're getting, but can't say I payed attention for Ch25. Ah well, will become more relevant by Ch24 anyway.

In truth, I did attempt to use the Hawkzerker as the intended replacement animation, complete with Milanor's scythe, but it proved to be too difficult a task to work in properly at the time, so I had to settle with Hector Lord. It came out better than I expected, admittedly, but Milanor's still not 100% without his trademark scythe. |B
