Fire Emblem Tellius/Main Characters

Ike

The main protagonist of Path of Radiance, he's thrust into a conflict between Crimea and Daein after a chance encounter with the princess of Crimea and the death of his father at the hands of the mysterious Black Knight. Develops over the course of the game from a naive mercenary to a capable general and fierce warrior, respected by Beorc and Laguz alike.

---

• Achilles Heel: Very low Resistance in both games. Beware of mages.
• A Father to His Men: After his father's death and his subsequent Promotion to Parent.
• Ambiguously Gay: A lot of speculation in the fandom has been directed towards this. No special support endings with women? A very close relationship with Soren? Hmmmm...
• Anti-Hero: Type II.
• Badass: Certainly one of the top five in a world where every other person is one. Also considered one in-universe. "So Ike beat you that time. Big deal! Ike beats everybody!"
  • Badass Normal: In an army full of magic users, knights on pegasi and wyvern, and even shapeshifting animals, Ike manages to perform excellently in battle. He even defeated a goddess! Granted, he had the blessing of another goddess, but still.
    • Badass Abnormal: After gaining Ragnell and again after being blessed by Yune.
  • Badass Cape
  • Badass Unintentional: Half his dialogue in the epilogue of Radiance can effectively be summed up as Flat Whats towards all the praise heaped on him. He wasn't trying to be a hero. He just wanted to help win back Crimea.
• BFS: His trademark Ragnell. Notably, Ike is strong enough to deftly wield this two-handed sword with One-Handed Zweihander hand.
• Big Eater: His appetite isn't just compared to that of a Laguz, Titania puts him in the same league as Skrimir.
• But Now I Must Go: In his final ending, he leaves the continent, never to be seen again.
• Bond One-Liner: He has a few; see also Deadpan Snarker.

Catalena: Pawns of your execrable goddess, die! You are a festering wound in the flesh of the world! Die, and let it heal! Ike: I suppose talking it over is out of the question?

• Bootstrapped Leitmotif: Eternal Bond, a.k.a Ike's Theme in Super Smash Bros Brawl.
• Brutal Honesty
• Character Development: From clumsy recruit, to kinda insecure head of a group of mercenaries, to a confident military leader who inspires respect in both sides of the conflict.
• Chaste Hero
• Chick Magnet: Marcia flirts with him, Elincia has a crush on him (well, in Path of Radiance at least), Lethe acts Tsundere towards him and Aimee has indicated more than once that he's exactly her type. While there is some Ship Tease in his supports with Elincia in the first game, Radiant Dawn pretty much puts a stopper in it.
• Curtains Match the Window
• Deadpan Snarker: Very frequently. It's worth pitting him against as many bosses as you can to see Ike's sharp wit.

Emil: I will not allow you to take one step more! Ike: Then I've no choice but to cut you down and walk over you!

• Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Goes up against the goddess Ashera and he's the only one who can defeat her. Granted, he was using a sword that was blessed by her, plus he was also blessed by another goddess, Yune. Ike has also bested the king of dragons, Dheginsea.
• Eleventh-Hour Superpower: Yune blessing the Ragnell, which is what allows him, and only him, to defeat goddess Ashera.
• Expy: In appearance, he serves as one to Sigurd and Hector. Word of God specifically states that Ike was modeled after Hector due to him being one of the more popular Lords in the series (Ike does not share Hector's demeanor, though). Ike, much like the two, can also become one of the best units in both appearance (if not the best). Considering Ike's popularity, it looks like it worked.
• Harmful to Minors: Ike nearly went insane as a child after watching an act of particularly horrific violence. Sephiran arguably did him a huge favor by brainwashing him to forget all about it.
• The Hero: As a series first, Ike is currently the only protagonist who isn't descended from royalty/nobility (unless one counts the technicality of his father's former status as Sir Gawain, one of the Four Riders of Daein).
  • In Radiant Dawn, he counts as this and The Big Guy.
• Heroes Prefer Swords: His weapon of choice.
  • An Axe to Grind: Can use axes in Radiant Dawn upon promotion, much like his father.
• Heterosexual Life Partners/Gay Option: With Soren and Ranulf, depending on interpretation.
• Humble Hero
• Hunk: Specially in Radiant Dawn.
• It Was a Gift: His first exclusive weapon, the Regal Sword, was a gift from Greil. It's also implied that the Ettard (Alondite in the Japanese version; not to be confused with the Black Knight's weapon) he starts out with in Dawn was used by Greil during his days as Sir Gawain.
• The Kirk
• Lightning Bruiser: Surprisingly for a swordsman, he's got above-average Strength, Defense, and HP. His Speed and Skill are also excellent, although his Speed dwindles a bit in Radiant Dawn. Expect him to hold his own very well, once he's grown quite a bit.
• Limit Break / Everything's Better with Spinning: His mastery skill, Aether. Begins with Sword Pointing. The skill consists of two strikes: the first attack will restore HP equal to the damage done to the enemy, while the followup then halves the enemy's defense to inflict more damage.
• Martial Arts Headband: Well, more like Swordsmanship Headband, but you should get the picture.
• Master Swordsman
• Missing Mom
• Mr. Fanservice
• No Social Skills
• Oblivious to Love: Most prominent reason for his Chaste Hero status.
• One-Handed Zweihander
• Perpetual Frowner: Various characters, including Empress Sanaki, lampshade this.
• Rags to Royalty: After he gains peerage from being knighted by the princess of Crimea. Subverted when he abandons his nobility after the war ends.
• Red Baron: After playing his part in history, Ike goes on to become known as "The Hero of the Blue Flames" in lore.
• Screw the Money, I Have Rules: "We would not sell our swords to a liar."
• Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: He's the Manly Man to Soren's Sensitive Guy. An interesting case, since Ike's actually the Nice Guy of the two and Soren's, well... not.
• Ship Tease: With Princess Elincia, although it doesn't last long.
• Sword Beam: His Ragnell is capable of attack from long-range with these.
• Team Dad/Promotion to Parent: After Greil's death.
• Took a Level In Badass: As if the level he gets due to his Character Development during Path Of Radiance wasn't enough, he gets an additional one right at the beginning of Radiant Dawn hand in hand with a level in muscle mass. And it goes upwards from there.
• Turn Out Like His Father: When Gawain was younger, he taught the Black Knight to be stubborn and arrogant, implying that Gawain himself was stubborn and arrogant. Oddly enough, the one who tried to raise Ike differently was... Greil, formerly Gawain.
• Walking the Earth: After all is said and done in Dawn. If you get A Support with Soren, he joins Ike. Ranulf will be influenced to go out on a journey due to Ike, but it's not specified if they go together.
• Would Hurt a Child: Almost "[broke Sothe's] face" when the latter stowed away on their boat in Path of Radiance.
• You Gotta Have Blue Hair
• You Killed My Father: His main motivation for defeating the Black Knight in Path of Radiance.

Greil

Ike's father and leader of the Greil Mercenaries, dies shortly after the game begins. Is revealed by Volke to be a former member of Daein's Four Riders who defected to protect Ike's mother, and tragically wound up killing her after touching Lehran's Medallion.

Class: Hero (PoR) Voiced by: Takashi Nagasako (Japanese, PoR), Stephen Weyte (English, PoR)

---

• An Axe to Grind: His Urvan. It returns in Dawn as one of the ten SS-ranked weapons.
  • Weapon Tombstone
• A Father to His Men
• Badass
  • Handicapped Badass: He slit the tendons of his wrist so that he wouldn't be able to swing a sword again after he was snapped out of his Lehran's Medallion-induced berserker rampage and realized the extent of the carnage he had wrought--particularly his wife, whom he had killed while she was in the process of snapping him out of said rampage by snatching away the medallion.
  • Retired Badass
  • Badass Cape
• Cool Old Guy
• Defector From Decadence
• Heel Face Turn: Although it occurred long before the events of Path of Radiance.
• I Let You Win: To Ike at the beginning of Path of Radiance.
• Mentor Occupational Hazard
• My Greatest Failure: Possibly resulting in his desire not to let Ike Turn Out Like His Father.
• Super-Powered Evil Side: He was already the strongest swordsman in Tellius before he touched the Fire Emblem; he was downright unstoppable after (or would have been, if it weren't for Elena's sacrifice.)
• The Obi-Wan
• That Man Is Dead

The Black Knight: "I've been waiting for this for a long time. I would prefer it if you used the proper weapon, so that I might see you at your full strength, General Gawain of Daein." Greil: "That was my name, once... but I... threw it away."

Titania (Tiamat)

Greil's second in command and something of a surrogate mother for Ike. A former member of the Crimean knights who met Greil in Gallia.

Class: Paladin (PoR), Axe Paladin (RD)

---

• Action Girl
• All Love Is Unrequited/Hopeless Suitor: With Greil.
• An Axe to Grind
  • Blade on a Stick: But only in Path of Radiance. In Radiant Dawn, she's a Hot Chick with a Sword upon promoting to third tier.
• Badass
• Braids of Action
• The Conscience: She acts as the voice of morality when advising Ike.
• Christmas Cake: Lampshaded in her supports with Boyd, where she subtly advises against him flirting with her due to her being older while he fumbles over his own words.
• Crutch Character: At least a partial subversion. She's not quite an Oifey, but (much like Seth) she still manages to be a very useful unit throughout the game, In fact, Titania ties with Ike for best overall stat growth, meaning that if the Random Number God favors you, Titania starts out as a tank and stays that way. Believe it or not, she has even better stats in the sequel.
• Fiery Redhead
• Lady of War
• Limit Break: Sol.
• The Lancer/The Smart Guy: Alternates with Soren.
• The McCoy
• Red Headed Heroine
• Team Mom
• The Stoic: Is generally a less harsh Soren, adding a calm, veteran voice to the group.
  • Not So Stoic: Anything having to do with Greil. When Titania finds out that Ike knows who killed Greil she goes berserk and screams at him demanding to know who.

Soren (Senerio)

The tactician of the Greil Mercenaries and Ike's best friend, he's a branded (Beorc/Laguz Halfbreed) and carries more then a few chips on his shoulder. Is revealed in the second game to be Ashnard's son.

Class: Mage (PoR), Wind Sage (RD)

---

• Badass
• Badass Bookworm
• Bishonen: Probably the best example since Lucius.
• Black Mage/Red Mage: Depending on promotion level.
• Blow You Away: Like all mages in the game, he can use fire, thunder, and wind magic, but his capacity for using wind magic starts out higher than his skill in the other two.
• Boring Yet Practical: Because next to nobody who played the game has failed to get Soren's magic stat maxed, you'll probably never have to use any magic more advanced than the basic Wind spell. Also, most other spells (the exception being any you forge) have higher weight and as his Str growth is negligable, they just hamper his otherwise high speed. The latter is averted in RD where his 9 points of strenght let him wield all but Blizzard effiently.
• Brutal Honesty: Even more than Ike.
• Bullying a Dragon: Let's insult the Laguz that just saved our lives from an otherwise impossible battle to defend ourselves after our numbers have decreased. Real smart, Soren.
• Character Development: He softens a fair bit over Path of Radiance, going from a borderline straight-up Jerkass to a more traditional Jerk with a Heart of Gold.
• Dark Is Not Evil: Soren dresses in black and has the dark affinity, but he's also one of the most genuinely loyal characters to the protagonist's cause. (And one of the most ruthless and amoral, as well.)
• Defrosting Ice King
• Deadpan Snarker/The Snark Knight
• Fragile Speedster: Very speedy, but his defense and strength are comparable to Rhys', compromising his usefulness.
• Guile Hero
• Heterosexual Life Partners/Gay Option: Depending on your preferences.
• Heroic Bastard: For a certain value of heroic.
• In the Blood: Soren aka Ashnard's son is a bastard (in both senses), who would have guessed. Although his misanthropic, brutally honest characterization suggests that he has more in common with his maternal grandfather, Dheginsea.
• I Owe You My Life: The reason why Soren is so loyal to Ike: Soren almost starved to death when he was a kid, and Ike saved him.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold
• Lightning Bruiser: Once he promotes his strength gets a well needed boost, thus boosting his speed further (As attack speed is dependent on both speed and strenght to counter the weapon's weight). While his defense is negligible in both games, his supports with Ike further boost his already high Evasion significantly (up to +30 in Radiant Dawn!).
• Limit Break: Flare. Adds Life Drain to its effect in RD.
• Meaningful Name: His Japanese name is Senerio (i.e. "scenario"). And his English name also comes from the Latin name "Severus". (Wait, "Severus"? That name sounds familiar...) Ike even says that Soren has "an undeniable streak of severity."
• The Lancer/The Smart Guy: Alternates with Titania.
• Older Than They Look: And he will be for the rest of his life, due to being a Branded.
• Pragmatic Villainy: More apparent in Path of Radiance, where Soren was initially inclined to side with Daein against Crimea because Daein was winning the war, and he decided to rescue the empress of Begnion because it was "a great opportunity to put the empress in our debt. We'd be fools to pass that up."
• Razor Wind: His magic of choice.
• Red Eyes, Take Warning: He's not actually evil (only amoral), but he's not exactly kind-hearted, either. His eye color is also one of the few hints about his ancestry.
• Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Soren's the Sensitive Guy to Ike's Manly Man.
• Stepford Snarker: Most apparent in Toha.
• Short, Dark, And Snarky
• Silly Rabbit, Idealism is for Kids: "Courage and valor are for children's tales." He's less of this in Radiant Dawn, taking a more pragmatic tack to situations rather than chewing others out for daring to be optimistic.
• The Spock
• Squishy Wizard: Consider Ilyana's Squishy Wizard entry further down. Soren's defense is actually worse. However he is faster.
• The Strategist
• Sugar and Ice Personality:

Ike: You know, Soren? You're not nearly as insensitive as the others say. Deep down, you're a big softie.

• • Driven home with his unlockable scene (after A support) with Ike in Dawn, where he breaks down into tears.
• Troubled but Cute
• Tsundere
• Undying Loyalty: To Ike.
• Wimpification: He's especially susceptible to this derailment in Slash Fic.

Princess Elincia Ridell Crimea

The secret princess of Crimea whose birth was hidden to prevent a power struggle; this worked well at the time, but it backfires later, because it leads to some problems convincing people that she is indeed the princess that supposedly doesn't exist. She hires the Greil Mercenaries, and the plot of most of Path of Radiance revolves around her attempts to re-take her country and the lengths she goes to do so.

Class: Princess Crimea (PoR), Queen (RD) Voiced by: Juri Takita (Japanese, PoR), Erica Evans (English, PoR)

---

• Action Girl: She starts heading in this direction towards the end of Path of Radiance. As of the sequel, she qualifies fully.
• Badass
  • Badass Damsel: The sweet, placating Proper Lady princess who later on grabs a sword, a pegasus, and Takes a Level In Badass.
  • Badass Long Hair
  • Badass Princess: Badass Queen actually.
• Bodyguard Crush: She has a crush on her employee Ike, who doesn't notice.
  • In both 9 and 10, she displays a strong affection for her lead knight and childhood friend, Geoffrey. As well as his sister, Lucia.
• The Chick
• Combat Medic
• Demoted to Extra: During the second half of Radiant Dawn. In Part 2 she's the main character, but in Part 3 she starts to loose screen time, and after she reunites with the Greil Mercenaries, she barely gets any at all.
• Fragile Speedster
• Lady of War
• Leitmotif: Accurately called Queen Elincia. There is a slightly faster version that plays when she's a princess, called... Beautiful Princess Elincia.
• Limit Break: Stun.
• Magic Knight: Her access to the magic swords can make her one in FE9.
• The Messiah: Deconstructed. Trying to be this as well as a good ruler for her people in Radiant Dawn is what leads to the bulk of her problems.
• Official Couple: Subverted. Although, it may have been headed this way with Ike, it was subsequently dropped in the second game. Alternatively, Elincia could've simply outgrown her crush on Ike after two or three years of not seeing him, or realized that between his lack of reciprocation and his disdain for nobility, her ship with him had sailed.
  • As alluded to in the above Bodyguard Crush though, you get her an A-support with Geoffrey, they get married.
• Plucky Girl
• Proper Lady
• Royals Who Actually Do Something
• Ship Tease: With Ike in Path of Radiance, but Radiant Dawn puts a merciless end to that.
• To Be Lawful or Good: Her troubles in Radiant Dawn basically stem from a conflict of whether to do the morally right thing or the politically sound thing.
• Took a Level In Badass: Both in the combat and attitude department. Not only is she strong, she learns to become a very competent and confident ruler after Act 2, who no longer takes shit from her senators and subordinates.
  • Contrast the image above, with her later appearance, seen here
• The Woman Wearing the Queenly Mask: After she becomes queen, life becomes a lot harder for her.
• You Gotta Have Green Hair

Mist

Ike's little sister, who decides she's sick of being a noncombatant and properly joins the Greil Mercenaries shortly after Greil dies.

Class: Cleric (PoR and RD) Voiced by: Atsuko Enomoto (Japanese, PoR), Miho Miyagawa (Japanese, RD), Elsbeth Nathanson (English, PoR)

---

• Action Girl: After she promotes in Path of Radiance, and she already starts off using swords in Radiant Dawn.
• Armor-Piercing Slap: A humorous variation occurs in Chapter 17 of Path of Radiance, where Boyd teases her for her weight and she responds by shoving him back four squares (when most characters can only manage two, at most, and Mist is completely incapable of shoving Boyd at all in battle). It's even funnier when she's on a horse.
• Badass Adorable: If trained properly, she definitely qualifies.
• Bootstrapped Leitmotif: Kinda. Memory of Mom from Path of Radiance was renamed as Mist's Theme in Radiant Dawn. But it was unused and can only be listened in the unlockable BGM gallery.
• Combat Medic: Gets the ability to use swords after promotion.
• Hot Chick with a Sword: After being promoted to Valkyrie in Path of Radiance; from the beginning in Radiant Dawn.
• It Runs in The Family: Why does a mostly magic class use swords? She is Greil's daughter after all.
• Incorruptible Pure Pureness: She has to be, to hold Lehran's Medallion.
• Lady of War
• Lethal Chef: Apparently, she was an awful cook when she first started, but eventually she gets better with practice.
• Limit Break: Sol.
• Mage Killer: In both games.
• Magic Knight: Is quite proficient with magic swords in PoR.
• Magikarp Power: Hard to train at first, but can become a decent fighter once she's been properly raised. She's also one of the only two characters, along with Elincia, that can use both healing staffs and swords, and since she gets a horse on promotion, she gains great mobility which allows heal-and-run tactics. Training her gives a big pay-off in Path of Radiance during the final duel against the Black Knight. Though, she will need a lot of dedication to train (being incredibly fragile), and most players tend to prefer Rhys over her, who can usually heal more effectively and is your only unit to get Light magic (weak though it is).
  • As for Radiant Dawn, though she can use swords from the get-go (and even get her own personal weapon with crazy stats), she's still incredibly weak and will need a lot of attention in order to not get picked off.
  • PoR Mist is able to dish out some impressive hurt with the Sonic Sword, a magic-based sword that obviously gels well with her stats. Trouble is, you have to waste resources aplenty just so she can be able to equip it. None of this carries over to RD, which has ranged-attack swords, but no magic ones.
• Memento MacGuffin: Her medallion, which used to belong to her mother. She and her mother are the only ones who can touch it without succumbing to chaos.
• The Messiah
• Panty Shot: Not Ilyana levels, but present. It's even in official artwork.
• Plucky Girl: She tries to keep smiling and stay strong even after her father dies.
• Nice Girl
• Romantic Two-Girl Friendship: Her friendship with Jill can be seen this way, to an extent.
• She Is All Grown Up: Three years later, that is.
• Slap Slap Kiss: With Boyd.
• Sword Beam: Her starting sword in Radiant Dawn allows her to attack from a distance.
• Team Mom: To Ike's family, following the death of her mother.
• Tsundere: Type B. Usually deredere, but Boyd can cause her to go into tsun mode.
• Unwanted Harem: If she doesn't end up with Boyd, she'll happily live by herself, despite having several suitors.
• White Magician Girl: To start. After promotion, she's a Combat Medic.
• Zettai Ryouiki: After promoting to Valkyrie. Since all characters' official art is based on their earliest class, this means her official art doesn't display this.

Ranulf (Rai)

A Gallian soldier who is right hand to the future king, and Heterosexual Life Partners with Ike.

Class: Cat (PoR and RD) Voiced by: Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Japanese, RD), ??? (English, RD)

---

• Badass
• Cat Boy
• Chekhov's Gunman: He fought the Black Knight near the middle of Path of Radiance, he fought Zelgius near the middle of Radiant Dawn, and near the end of Radiant Dawn he revealed that they were one and the same.
• Deadpan Snarker: Just like Ike.

Valtome: The so-called queen... Where is that brazen little hussy? Bring her before me! Now! Right away! Immediately! Ranulf: Are you the best Ashera could do? This really is the end of the world.

• Heterosexual Life Partner/Gay Option: Again, preferences pending.
• Keet: A milder example.
• The Lancer: To Skrimir. He is also something of a Sixth Ranger to Ike's group.
• Limit Break: Roar (PoR) & Rend (RD).
• Mismatched Eyes
• Mr. Fanservice
• The Worf Effect
• You Gotta Have Blue Hair

Reyson (Rieusion)

The last prince of the Heron Clan, he initially held a grudge against all Beorc, but after finding his sister was alive, he found it in himself to forgive the Apostle of Begnion.

Class: Heron (PoR and RD)

---

• Badass Pacifist: Physically incapable of combat. Still a badass.
• Bishonen
• Berserk Button: Oliver's continued existence. Not that any decent human being could blame him.
• Defrosting The Ice King: Despises humans, takes a good bit of Ike-flavored honesty to get him to warm up to them.
• Expy: His appearance and function are quite similar to Elphin's. His personality, on the other hand...
• Fantastic Racism: Initially towards Beorc, but not without good reason.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Radiant Dawn sees him almost completely drop the "jerk" part.
• Limit Break: Subverted; his so-called "mastery skill" is technically just Blessing (heals a small amount of HP to adjacent allies). In RD Herons don't have any mastery skill, though one could argue the uber Recovery galdr they get at level 40 (full HP and clears statuses) qualifies. Good luck getting any of them up to that.
• Mr. Fanservice
• Non-Action Guy: His role is similar to the Dancers and Bards in previous games; he isn't capable of combat himself, but he's quite capable of rejuvenating his allies.
  • In Path of Radiance he punches Duke Oliver in the nose full force. Oliver is only slightly bruised by the strike, while Reyson broke all the bones in his hand.

Ike: But it felt good, didn't it? Reyson: Oh yeah.

• Pay Evil Unto Evil: What he wanted to do as a result of the Serenes Massacre, because he didn't know that there were any survivors other than himself and his father. He got over his desire for revenge when he learned that Leanne was still alive and she persuaded him to accept Sanaki's apology.
• Rapunzel Hair: Common to all Herons. His is about waist length.
• Spoony Bard: See "Non-Action Guy" above. He subverts it when shifted, though.
• Tsundere

Nasir

A Dragon Clan member who left due to philosophical differences, he poses as a Beorc spice merchant and follows Ike around for a large part of the game (even after his services as a ship captain have run their course).

Class: White Dragon (PoR and RD)

---

• Badass Grandpa: Literally, though given how slow Dragons age he doesn't look a day past thirty.
• Demoted to Extra: In Radiant Dawn.
  • Crippling Overspecialization: Much like his compatriot Gareth, he joins at a point where there is nothing left but magic users to fight, and his attacks only deal magic damage. Unlike Gareth though, Nasir comes with some good skills.
• Heroic Sacrifice: If Ike is unable to defeat the Black Knight.
  • Ena's comments during the epilogue don't explicitly state that Nasir is dead for sure. Either way he's alive and well in RD, so either outcome of the Black Knight battle makes sense... in theory.
• Heel Face Revolving Door
• Eleventh-Hour Ranger
• The Mole
• My Master, Right or Wrong: In RD, he's decided never to betray Dheginsea again, motivated by guilt over his actions in PoR. This leads to you and Nasir being at odds during the final chapter, but he'll join you (on the king's orders, naturally) after you beat Dheginsea. (Assuming you don't kill Nasir first.)
• Limit Break: Boon (PoR) & Ire (RD).
• Really 700 Years Old
• "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Nasir gives a doozy of one to Almedha before the final chapter in RD. He spells out, among other things, how Ashnard did everything in his power to antagonize Dheginsea and suck him into the war, hits home how much the continent is still suffering from the aftermath of Ashnard's antics, and how the numerous catastrophies that have lead up that point are her fault for getting involved with Ashnard. All this, after having not seen her face-to-face for 90 years. Talk about a ghost from the past!
  • To a lesser extent, he gives one to Kurth and Ena as well. He tells them that because they got involved in the war despite Dheginsea's warnings, all of Goldoa's efforts to remain neutral have been for nothing. His speech to them can be summed up as "Good fucking job, you two."
• Restored My Faith in Humanity: Somewhat. In the beginning of the game, he comments that Ike's idealism will be tested and broken. By the end, if he survives, he will admit that he was wrong and that Ike is much stronger than he anticipated.
• Secret Keeper: Nasir is one the handful of people in the entire world who knows the family tree of Lehran and Altina, the origin of the branded and their persecution, and the true terms of the pact made with Ashera. Presumably, he was told all of this by Dheginsea, and he doesn't reveal any of it until Kurthnaga becomes king.
