Prologue: Welcomes and information
Hello, all who are currently reading this! This is the opening page of what will be the storage place for all my liveblogs of the Fire Emblem series of games. In here, I will be updating chapter by chapter as I play through the games and hopefully make those updates as fun to read as possible!
The next page will be a Table of Contents, since this will eventually get fairly large, and it will make categorizing which games are being covered in which liveblog installments much easier.
Continue forth onto the next page, and hopefully enjoy your time reading!

Neat fact: The Sword of Seals can be used as an item to restore 30 HP. Not sure why they don't tell you this, but something you might find helpful.

I had issues in both runs with the reinforcements in Zephiel's throne room, sounds like you handled them easily though. Good job!
By the way, I'm not sure what you know about the Sealed Sword, but it can attack at range and is usable as a healing item for 30 health (although this damages it).
It really is a shame it has such a low number of uses. I think I saved one Hammerne charge for it my second run.

I noticed that it could attack from afar, and while I never used it (due to saving it for Zephiel and being wary of it's low uses), it seems like it could be really helpful. I think I still have a hammerne use, which would be pretty helpful so that Roy can slay dragons with ease.
I did not know it can be used to heal 30 hp, which is pretty neat, although I won't use it too much, I don't think.
The reinforcements could have given me trouble, but I had enough people who could move far and also deal with them, that they weren't able to show up and wreak havoc.

Trivia time: Exaccus is actually a mistranslation of Eckesachs, a legendary sword used by a German Hero called Hiebschwert. It was apparently described by a guy called Bern, hence why it ended up the royal weapon of Bern in this game I guess.

Really? How on earth do you pronounce that? Perhaps it's pronounced like Exaccus, only with the different lettering, hence the translation error.
Looks pretty cool, though. Nice little bit of information too.

To clarify, the mistranslation is solely in the fan translation. I am pretty sure the Japanese and the in game coding says Eckesachs.
And no, I have no clue how to pronounce that.

I know it's the fan translation that botched it, of course, others might have gotten it correct. This one has it's odd moments, and it still feels odd to "conquer" the castle/throne/gate/what have you at the end of each chapter.
