#fire emblem blog

[remnant-emblemeer]

Welcome to the Saints & Stones Archive!

This blog is essentially a library for all things related to the Fire Emblem franchise. As a lifelong fan of the series, I have played every FE game available outside of Japan, and frequently find myself yearning for more peers that enjoy the series as well. From Mystery of the Emblem to Engage and Heroes, I am amazed and enthralled by the depth of creation both from Nintendo and the fanbase alike.

However, with each year that passes, Fire Emblem approaches a reputation like that of the Fate anime saga... so many timelines, so many easter eggs, so many components, that it becomes difficult to keep track of. The last thing I want when encouraging someone to explore Fire Emblem is for them to be deterred by the breadth of the franchise itself; hence, the Saints & Stones Archive was born.

In this blog, I will discuss the plotlines of games, post character break-downs and bios, offer an index of continents and kingdoms, and share theories or strategies relevant to the games as a whole. This will provide not only an organized index of Fire Emblem lore, but also showcase as many unique or underrated elements of the franchise as I can. I will also share methods of accessing the older games, such as providing links and reviews to my favorite downloadable hacks, ROMs, and emulators for each game.

Thank you so much for joining me in the Archive today, and I hope you stick around!! If there are specific topics you would like covered, please submit a question!!

I am more than happy to be of service for all your Fire Emblem lore needs.

Until next time,

Your Librarian

Yuri Leclerc and Constance von Nuvelle as a platonic duo? 🥺 or just one of them, if you prefer! 🙏

they are looking down on people i guess (love them) (1)

Yuri Leclerc as a concept is sooo funny because here is the most beautiful woman you've ever seen, sike! He's a man actually. and you're like okay, okay, cool. he's still the most beautiful person ever, looks introverted yet elegant, so you'd expect him to have a demure-ish personality with delicate hobbies. speaks in noble tongue, voice as soft as the lilac in his hair maybe. probably into fashion as well.

and then he opens his mouth.

DEEP voice, crass, and a menace. were it not for the game's rating and setting, this guy would be cursing worse than a sailor. ANDDD the funniest thing is that he's 😂 an underground mafia boss. his first conversation with the player character is that he'd slit their throat for crossing his men. he's confident, sarcastic and smug, absolutely at odds with his soft appearance. NONE of his hobbies aside from the makeup are ""girly"" at all.

but that's not all! get this. he's... a momma's boy. intimidating fucker that he is, everything he does, the maiming the killing the swindeling, it's all to send money back to her. AND following that, he's something of a Robin Hood minus the heroic fanfare. as in, he's for the common folk. from orphans to the disabled, his care protects them all. beneath the scary job and personality, his compassion runs deep.

he can't stand not knowing things. he sings so prettily but scowls when he's made to do it in public. people call him a Savage Mockingbird and he does do nothing but mock and toy with his prey sometimes. he hates attention. A+ honors student but dropped out for doing crime. he's gotten into shit situations where people took advantage of him for his pretty looks.

he likes stargazing. he's named after a star. his real name at least. the one only his mom calls him.

isn't the dichotomy just the funniest. like don't all these aspects combined together make for the most delightfully jarring character ever. but it makes sense. the totality of his life circumstances made the person that he is now and it just... works.

"Yuri is the best he's my favorite!" -Yuri himself (actual line in game btw)

Alfonse CYL winner real??? so I tried designing another Brave outfit for him, this time based more on Askr!

I blame this post for making this dumb idea spawn in my brain

Because now I’m convinced that Temenos actually doesn’t realize what a twig he is, like a small dog that barks at much bigger animals on the other side of a fence. I DUNNO-- (Also this was my first time doodling like half these characters so there’s a lot of improvising haHA)

Happy birthday, Claude and Pasha— now it's time to answer some questions! This one came from /u/HB_DS2013 on Reddit, getting straight to today's hard-hitting Pasha issues— and, perhaps unintentionally, prompting a sequel to Pasha’s post-April Fool’s blues here on Tumblr.

Stay tuned for more responses! (Still taking questions BTW!)
