"We must never lose sight of our goal - even if our enemies are the gods themselves."
~ The Flame Emperor, Edelgard von Hresvelg
(This was gonna be something way more saccharine but then I thought "Nah, it'd be better if she were scary as fuck and bathed in the blood of her enemies.")

Yello~
Just making a "first post" to kinda show it's me, and to show people that haven't known me what it is I do.
I mostly draw and sometimes talk about games, coffee, and pets.
While a majority of my art is and will be my original stuff, as that's my biggest drive to create, I will toss out some fanart every now and again.
Some things that interest me is Dragon Age, Mass Effect, the Tales of games, Fire Emblem, Neverwinter Nights, D&D, RWBY (although I'm fairly new), and swords are pretty cool.

So! With the recent update on my fic I’ve been doing a bit of a dive in the FE3H canon that caught my attention. I’m using this as the ‘textbook’ explanation for an event I have planned in chapter 8 of my ongoing fic, but I think this is important to point out for people who are writing Edelgard with a direction of studying elements of her character
Trigger warning for detail of death description. Not sure exactly how to tag it.
So, in her Byleth C support, she says this
Now, notice how she says “OR died;” that not all of them died initially. It is confirmed later in the same support, however, that her siblings are all dead:
And it is alluded to again in the C+ support
So, I know Edelgard loves to speak with lots of metaphors and hyperbolic phrasing, but I have a feeling that this is intended to mean that the slitherers deliberately killed the ones who were left incompetent or physically disabled, i.e., everyone except for Edelgard. The way she’s speaking about it, it sounds to me that death being listed as the final order of those events means it was most prolific.
Based on this part of the C support:
I am going to guess that this is the case: Her oldest brother and sister were the two that were physically crippled, and the youngest is the one she references as having “lost their mind.” That puts the counter at 3 of 10 siblings being deliberately put down by the agarthans. Which is diabolical and sickening.
The reason I think that this is the— sort of— summary of events is because of how Edelgard tends to admit how loosely she speaks and how a lot of what she says is a little less filtered around Byleth (her words). Regardless, this was still a very shitty thing but it’s interesting to analyze no less.
