#not that fjorm/laegjarn wasn't a totally shippable thing before then but y'know. There's More

[airlock]

right, so, I think calling it "propagandizing" as I usually do would imply a stronger level of attachment to FEH OCs than I really have -- consider this more of an informational notice, if you will

because the thing is, I'm sure a lot of folks around here who picked up FEH long enough ago to remember when Fjorm and Laegjarn were shiny new characters... also fell out of FEH roughly around the same time as I did, and might not have heard that a little bit of additional Book II story came out in 2021. (or they might have heard about Nifl and Múspell coming out as playable units, respectively with Bad Female Character Art By A Guy and no shirt on, but nothing further than that)

anyway, the entire thing was centered around Nifl and Múspell (the gods, not the countries) using Fjorm and Laegjarn as champions to fight each other with, but Fjorm was so exceedingly gay and useless about the whole thing that she pulled a Prophecy Twist on it and killed Múspell

if you want to catch what that was all about without having to do any arcane thing like dusting off the FEH app, FEH wikia has scripts for the whole thing! I'm linking to Tempest Trials: Ice & Flame 1 here, and for the rest, you just have to look for the same thing but 2, 3, 4, 5 and Finale.
