Genealogy of the Holyn War.

Holyn's cool. He comes out of nowhere and helps you out because you beat him. He's a footie in Genealogy, unfortunately.

Any spoilers that aren’t Eldigan is the Camus flew over my head.

Yeah, not much more yet (at least as far as the plot is concerned). I'm just saying because, seeing the amount of people that went "nobody" when you asked about the recruitables earlier, I'm kinda afraid that they won't have the restraint to avoid making "witty" remarks about a certain something that happens later. Believe me, you'll want to experience it blindly. Heck, it's already a miracle that you don't know about it!

Eh, sorry 'bout that. FE4's plot is one of the worst kept secrets in FE next to the Black Knight being [REDACTED]. I forget that there's some who don't know it already.

Yeah, the Lex/Manfroy plot twist was cool.

I’m assuming you’re referring to how gen 1 ends, which I think is everyone in gen 1 dying somehow but I don’t actually kNoW if that’s how it ends. That might be a gen 2 shenanigan, so I said as much. I don’t know why I’m mentioning this, I just have a good feeling I’m right.

I mean Finn is supposed to show up in gen 2 I think. So...

I know, I know, it's because he couldn't use it, but I prefer to think Arden broke it over the heads of his foes while you-know-what was happening.

Hmm, that won't quite explain why it ends up where it does.

Do Pokemon players also complain that their 80% Hydro Pumps miss? For me, even the 90% rate of Blizzard was always too inaccurate to rely on.

When did Blizzard hit 90%? (Turns out gen 1, it's 70% since outside of hail)

Me, I've tended to avoid sub 90% most of the time unless No Guard or something.

If you’re talking about the spoiler tag, I didn’t see until after that was there, so no I don’t know what that says.

I can't blame you. I mean, prior to Sooks saying that he didn't know about The Thing I also assumed that everyone in the thread knew about it. It's like the Vader thing, you really have to live under a rock to be unaware of it.

However, that is a rock worth living under, and Sooks deserves to have it preserved. Please, everyone, do try not to lift it.

Actual Celtic mythological figures. One of the most notable things is all three were a trio asking for a guy to name the island after them. He picked Ériu. (Fódla's also the base for Fodlan.)

The accuracy of their myths are up in the air because Christianity.

His official name is actually Chulainn. The "C" is actually silent, and it's pronounced similar to "hull-in", which explains the fan translation name of Hol-lyn. Cu Chulainn, the "Dog of Chulainn", also known by his birth name Setanta, is an Irish hero of myth, famed for wielding the spear Gae Bolg and going Hulk-esque on things.

*Checks Wikipedia*

In Irish mythology, Ériu (Irish pronunciation: [ˈeːrʲu]; Irish: Éire), daughter of Delbáeth and Ernmas of the Tuatha Dé Danann, was the eponymous matron goddess of Ireland.

With her sisters, Banba and Fódla, she was part of a triumvirate of goddesses. When the Milesians arrived from Galicia, each of the three sisters asked that their name be given to the country. This was granted to them, although Ériu (Éire) became the chief name in use.^[1] (Banba and Fódla are still sometimes used as poetic names for Ireland, much as Albion is used as a poetic name for Great Britain.)

[Saint Rubenio]

Ahahahahah... Hahahahah! One of those three losers really just went and said that we will be "destroyed quickly, cleanly, efficiently and utterly."

That'd be quite the badass line... If they didn't have to go through Finn to make good on their word. As it is, I can only laugh at their impending misery.

Well, that's me proven wrong. Oh, well.

[BrightBow]

There is a fun thing about their AI: They will always try to attack in melee, if possible.

The reason for that is because they can use the Triangle Attack.

Hey guess what.

That's good though. Things will mean more to you since you'll discover them for yourself.

I wish I could've said the same for FE9/10, but oh well.

[Sooks]

I mean, I could always just reserve genealogy posts to just unit performances like ALEC GETTING NO STATS IN HIS LEVEL but I guess that runs the same risk... meh.

It's the reality of these myths being written down by a group who were quite fine with making changes to the context when said myths were oral tradition before the monasteries.

It's not unique to the preservation of mythology in Ireland, but it does impact analysis of these things.

I was not so lucky.

Stay under that rock young Sooks.

Alec is bad, no surprise there. Funny towel can only carry you so far, I'm afraid.

Now, Arden though--

[Benice]

I got a strength-blessed Dew.

He has 7 strength at level 9. Nice.

The silver lining always lay in observing the execution.

Shakespeare tells you whether it's a tragedy or a comedy or a history he wrote first thing, and likewise, you know a romantic comedy is going to be funny or a horror film scary (or try to be funny/scary at least). How Shakespeare kills off the titular protagonist, the very expectable outcome of a tragedy, is something that you don't know. Or at least, you don't know the buildup to the inevitable demise.

I mean I don’t know much about Tellius’ plot in general. I know a few of the characters, there are like animal people, and Ike’s dad or something dies.

This is not an invitation to be spoiled, merely me expressing how big the rock is.

Great summary of the game! Perfect! Xd

Yes, this is how I usually handle things after being spoiled about something.

Well, that's fine. I know absolutely nothing about Awakening, beyond the fact that there's a really underwhelming plot death that is later undone and that there's some sort of really confusing time travelling plotline.

 

Oh my God no. No! Despite my best efforts, the entire mage squad, recruitable included, are headed to reconquer Leonster.

The entire army of Alster is going to confront Finn. I need to save all that experience from him somehow...!

Is it really a spoiler if you say certain character isn't playable? Because i feel like saying a character is playable is more likely to be a spoiler and that's only in specific scenarios

Eldigan is presented as a good guy, is known to be Sigurd's friend and is an ally in a prior map; it's not like he's blatantly not a playable.

Plus, you can always lie.

So, uh... do all the stores always stock one of everything? Because I really need healing staves.

The plot is meh. It’s not confusing IMO though.

I just wish the gameplay was nearly a quarter as good as the plot... *sigh*
