Discussion History Characters / FireEmblemThreeHousesTheChurchOfSeiros

One big bone of contention. Namely, do you have further reasoning as to why that is the correct reading of \\\"I called myself Seiros\\\"? Like is it clearer in Japanese or something? Because I can\\\'t see why anyone would word it that way if that was their original, given name. I wouldn\\\'t say \\\"I called myself\\\" something unless I originally had no name or had a different name, since my given name is something I was given and called by others before I could even speak. Further, the context of her saying \\\"I called myself Seiros\\\" is her discussing how she gathered allies to lead the fight against Nemesis, implying that taking on that name was part of that stage of her life but not part of her life before this. Else why wait until after she lost everything in Zanado to mention her name?

As for Seteth referring to her as Seiros when talking to Macuil, that could just as easily be due to it being the name she had back when Macuil last saw her and thus Seteth used the name that, as far as Macuil knew, was her most recent. And given the war lasted the better part of a hundred years, he would have been calling her Seiros for a long time.

I also think that, while I agree Rhea\\\'s influence as a leader of Fodlan is exaggerated in the eyes of many of her critics, one can still say she holds considerable political influence.
