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!

The Hel tome is basically the instant death tome of the game, reducing HP down to one if it hits, but otherwise does no damage if they are at one. However, in Thracia 776, it kills them if the HP is already at one.
According to rumor, Hilda was going to be Alvis's sister (presumably a bastard child of Victor?) but in the final game, she is just a noble of Velthomer and has Fala blood. Being a bastard child of Victor isn't ruled out I guess...
Oh, time for backstory: If you didn't pair Tailto, her sister Ethnia more or less takes her place (did I mention this before? I am not sure where I could have brought it up) I wouldn't be surprised if she suffered abuse alongside her as well, but, well, the canon status of the replacements and plot elements associated with them is ambiguous at best.
Oh, I am not sure how much info the next part will cover, so I will mention it now: There is an event for Celice that grants him a Life Ring. After defeating the last boss of this chapter, move Celice next to a nearby water tile.

Yeah, Sety, Fee, and Nanna experienced the tomes effects when they were taking Rados, but having three healers meant it wasn't an issue.
I didn't even look at her holy blood. I thought she was a Freege royal from her relation with Ishtar and Tinny, but I supposes that explains Bolganone.
Ethnia is one of Titlyu's kids replacements then? Alright. I knew that the kids got replaced if there wasn't a paired parent for them, but it seems they get their own little plot things as well? Kinda cool, I suppose.
Thanks for the warning about the event, since a Life Ring sounds helpful, although I think he already has one. Life is the healing ring right?

Oh, sorry if I wasn't clear. The replacements for Tailto's kids are Amid and Linda. Ethnia is Amid and Linda's mother and Talito's sister, but she goes unmentioned unless you don't pair Talito. I think it's not so much a separate plot as it is just adjusting the existing plot for the fact that the kids in Arthur and Tinny's place aren't Talito's kids. For the record, I think after the second fight with Hilda, there is a conversation where Amid and Linda talk about how Ethnia joined Sigurd's army after Talito's death. (Of course, this raises some questions if you kept Talito til the end but just didn't pair her...)
However, I think some of the other subs have their own more unique plots, for example, Radney is uncomfortable around men, and Asaello and Mana have a bit of a complex about their status as commoners (compared to folks like Celice who have Holy Blood and such)
Yes, the Life Ring is the healing one.

Oh okay, still, that's an interesting bit of info.
Radney is Lakche's substitute right? That'd make recruiting one of the axe brothers a bit more amusing, I'd guess.
Alright, so then I guess Serlis is going to either have two (I wonder if they'd stack...) or he's gonna pawn one off to someone else.
