CHAPTER 5: UH OH THIS GAME IS KIND OF HARD ACTUALLY

That mission wasn't so bad. And as slightly translucent Kamui here is finding out in some riveting conversation, turns out that these Hoshidan folk have some history with our lovely prince.

They pull him back home and we meet a PlotGirl with some blue hair, and pronouns in a nice looking prerendered cutscene. (this is a timely joke to make because this game came out in 2015)

This nice lady Mikoto claims to be our mom. Man, what a long and fulfilling relationship we'll be able to have!

Aw man, another cutscene so soon? man, thanks for the character creation obscuring hat mr Apothecary! I'm sure celebrating our new family is gonna go great!

"Hehehe... if there's two things I love, its exploding evil wizard swords, and shaving my big beard before I go to public festivals"

(Screams)

Oh no! our wonderful MomCharacter has been slain. Time to go sicko mode!

I had to redo this level twice over because I got Kamui killed. not my finest moments.

These guys have wrymslayers, which means they kill our Kamui (And, in fact, ANY of our future corrins) near instantly because they have tripled weapon base power against dragons. Which, as any smash bros fans might know, corrin IS. Even when cloned, and also even when out of dragon form. Watch out!

Azura is here and does very little damage. Her stats can become shockingly high
lategame due to her massive strength and speed growth, but as for right now she's stuck as a noncombatant who can only use the weakest of polearms.
Sadly, her ability to give allies another action will see little use this run because making any of our Corrin Clones into a songstress can make the game crash. That sucks!

Although honestly, Rinkah isn't doing much better. Weapon triangle disadvantage against swords and mages makes her kinda crappy on this map, especially if you didn't spend the previous chapter getting her and Kaze some experience

Kamui absolutely smokes these guys with his draconic power. Sadly, he will not remain this badass past this chapter

Also I should note we're getting jumped by evil translucent shadow people.

I, personally, think these guys look really cool.

Kaze died but it doesn't matter. makes taking care of the mages kind of annoying but whatever, we move

Ryoma also loses his ill-fated duel against the evil wizard. Man, from chapter 4 corrin to 4 ryoma to dragon corrin to now this guy, we've got some pretty neat power scaling in gameplay form going on.

uh oh reinforcement mages. I can make this work

Azura being able to make Kamui move twice is really helpful when you've got such a powerful unit on deck. he's just barely able to move over and hit both mages

Ryoma couldn't hande this dude even with his SuperSword, but man he's not a massive threat to a guy like me. Built different I guess :p

This seems interesting, I submitted my form, It's the first time I participate in something like this so I hope I filled it right!

 

[lordofthekevins]

What a nice guy! Surely he will never been seen again

We also get a pretty damn good level off this. Kamui's stats are hyper inflated by his Feral Dragon class exclusive to this mission, so sadly we don't have this endgame viable statspread for long

Kamui is calmed by a powerful theme song,

Has a dream about some kind of Samurai-themed pincushion,

and is told he is VERY cool and awesome by ryoma

"Wow! I can really remember my infant past now. It all makes sense! I was actually a samurai pincushion and got reincarnated. it all makes sense now."

"uh, actually, there were some other things in that flashback, like king garon abducting y-"

" I didn't get a screenshot of that part so mostly I'm concerned about the samurai dude"

"Forgive me Lord father Sumeragi... your son is an imbecile.

Luckily, the great sword of Imbeciles reveals itself!

"Shing! Sparkle sparkle."

"Oh wow, the Yato! you know, in hoshidan mythology, that blade is said to reveal itself to one at a crossroads in life, or to those wh-"

"Well that's great and all but I can just go Turbo Dragon Sicko mode whenever I need to fight. All I have to do is get another relative mulched, right?"

"I'd... really rather you just used one of these."

Azura produces a cool rock we can use to go dragon form at will!
Corrin's dragon form scales damage based off magic instead of strength, and bumps up your defenses by a good bit. Sadly it also makes you slower and unable to double attack, making it powerful against earlygame enemies who have like no Res but worse as you get deeper into the game and have to deal with faster enemies who can actually take hits, and corrin's more tepid magic stat starts to become something of an issue if not actively adressed
Also, corrin's personal classline is the only class that can use dragon stones, so if you reclass them they'll just be stuck using normal weapons... which tend to have better stats anyway.

Takumi is a giant racist douche.

Oboro is a bigger racist than Takumi, one of her skills literally makes her deal more damage to all Nohrians

Yeah and she's in love with Takumi for a reason.

CHAPTER 6: CROSSROADS OF (FIRE EMBLEM) FATE(S)

Don't you hate it when this happens?

I have... never actually played Revelation

I've beaten conquest multiple times, once even on Lunatic, I've played birthright a few times through too, once on lunatic with 0 battles / 0 victories Ryoma. But Rev? never gotten further in it than like chapter 9 because I didn't really **** with it all that much

So... this will be a first experience for me.
.... I guess calling it "Corrinquest" is a misnomer, it's more "Correvelation". But that sounds worse so who cares

"Guys, we really need to work something out here. I'm not just going to go back after everything that's happened to nohr, but acting like you guys haven't been there for me my entire life is just stupid. Ryoma, you're a great guy too and even though I haven't known you for very long I really respect what you've done for my birth family being the head of the household. There's no easy way for me to say this but we can't just settle this through violence, I'm not interested in just going home to either of you and pretending like it's a foregone conclusion that our families have to be at war with each other. Frankly, as a nobleman of hoshido, I'd like to do my best to use my connections with Xander here to make a better world for all of us. Is it so wrong for a naive, DracoHorse man such as myself to dream of a better world?

"shut up hippie say one of these Nohrian or Hoshidan things or go fuck yourself"

"yeah man I came here to retrieve lost military hardware in draco-human form, not listen to a lecture"

"Guys are you being serious? I just can't abide by senseless violence in my own name. Would you really do this to me?"

"honestly yeah and my mom just dying probably has nothing to do with my current cognition of my family structure"

"I'm scared as shit of my EvilDad so sure pretty much"

" man, what thoughtless, stupid writing. how could this situation ever make logical sense?"

oh hey its my manservant. Azura is also here

We have to take out the 2 army's goonsquads before they come kill us for incompliance to the state. Fight the power, baby!

While our dragon form isnt as untouchable as it was previously, felicia's personal skill that gives us +Damage will help us dispatch of the fliers

Azura does need to get out of here though, she's in some real danger from the axe guys

This is pretty messy tbh, I thought she's be able to use her daggers to debuff the wyvern knights but a lucky double dodge stopped me from having to reset

These guys have literally like no resistance, so even without being able to double the dragonstone still does a lot. Truly the real Jagen of this game.

Pretty nice level out of the boss kill, too

Really, a paired up Corrin can just smoke these guys as long as I pick them off one at a time

And that's that

In the most general sense, yes

"Where the hell do we even go from here? are we just ******? Off on the run on our own?"

"Dude, I don't even know. I was really expecting you to go back to Nohr, but I couldn't in good conscience let you stand alone out there against an army.

"Well, shit. we need someplace to live. Are there any places, neither hoshido or nohr, where we could like apply for amnesty?"

Random Fish Jumpscare

"bro wtf is that is that a fish???? aaaaaaAAAAAAAUGH"

Ka-Bling!

"Oh this is actually pretty nice honestly. Pocket dimension castle gameplay abstraction? beats getting an apartment in Izumo"

"Oww, my head hurts...."

"Yikes, that really stings..."

"Shit, did I drop my dragonstone...?

"Uh hey azura who are these women wearing my clothes?"

"If' we're in an astral plane right now.... It's very possible that the mystic energy of the great dragon lord Ssapteerts fractured your material form from one, into many. Such is spoken of in the Nerevarin-"

"But.... Why is everyone a woman except me...?"

"It could be because you're bisexual. Astral magic has a lot to do with romance and how one perceives themself in relationships. They say even children can be born in these realms, spawned from the immaculate conception of pure love"

"Wow, really? I mean, I do have a thing for men with eyepatches, but I don't know if I really like labels like that... Well, anyway, having some clones of myself is sure to be a better option than living life on the lam all alone, right?
