However, I feel like more needed to be done. Getting angry would show a huge lack of critical thinking and empathy. Together they made great strides in helping to restore the Kingdom of Fódlan to its former glory and beyond. So, you cannot call this a terrible ending either. Remember, I do not subscribe to the idea for Ingrid that she needs a man to make her happy, and her normal ending has her never taking a husband. In A support, Ingrid said:“ I feel a bit lost– I don't know that I'm cut out to be a knight after all.Without fulfilling that dream– without being a knight– I've been asking myself where my place is in the world. Dorothea’s paired ending with Sylvain is kind of silly, but I think it carries across that their flirtatious natures and has a sense of being a teasing but loving relationship. But, there is clearly no hatred, or even resentment between them. It's interesting because it could imply that she's abandoning her family. Under his leadership, nobles were persuaded that Relics and Crests were not necessary as they'd previously thought. They may be at odds, but ultimately he's still very important to her. The bias individual in me says keep him in Blue Lions. She's hurt, and temporarily misguided. The series currently spans 16 games, two crossover titles and a mobile game. I've touched on this in Felix's review. But this is not mentioned in the ending, while in Ingrid's Felix BL-ending, it explicitly mentions how they support the Galatea region. I can't not love them. （There is not "that's just it"), Mercedes: I see. If you kill Ingrid in other route, her final words will be “Do I become a similar person like him(Glenn)?”(in Japanese/Chinese version). With oration alone, he succeeded in helping to create a new way of life for nobles in which Relics and Crests were no longer viewed as necessary. By the time he inherited the title of Margrave Gautier, he was a gentle and devoted husband. Woman power, baby! As a note, all endings are to be taken alone. Still, she found love and was able to fulfill a knightly duty in some way. And in turn, she is one of the few women Sylvain really respects right away. I like Felix and Sylvain's ending in blue lion route best by far. Thank you so much for your kind words! Sylvain trades in some points in offenses for extra HP and Defense while dropping his Resistance, which sits at a measly 16 at base. And Ignatz immortalizing her in his paintings pairs really well with her knighthood dream since it adds to her legend. The context clearly implies that the two are taking a supportive role in governance to Sylvain. Felix is also very upset, but as usual for him, is never as direct about it. She and her husband were initially received with skepticism, but together they worked hard to reform the territory and address its food shortages. It's romantic as fuck, who dies together because they couldn't live without each other? Not even a little bit. He is clearly a loving father, but he is also a noble who has duties. Hilda is another interesting case, so I'm pretty stoked to see what the devs had planned for her! But while the queen chasing the fleeing king through the palace was a common occurrence, the couple must have loved one another deeply, for they happily raised many children together. Mercedes can also see through Sylvain like he is made of glass. I think their fans want both Sylvain and Ingrid to realize their dream. I'll discuss the line that is said here, then the other line in the BL route. It’s not bad for Ingrid to inherit this dream from Glenn, follow his way and become a great knight, I really like those endings. I’m surely not suitable to be a knight……Without fulfilling that dream– without being a knight–I've been asking myself where my place is in the world. If multiple endings exist with the same pairing, I will compare them. I believe that's one of the smallest support pools in the game barring Sothis. As Margrave Gautier, Sylvain devoted his life to improving relations with the people of Sreng. After more than 10 proposals, Dorothea finally relented and agreed to marry Sylvain. They develop such a strong friendship, she grows as a person, and even helps out those she once despised, all the while still achieving her dream. Though he went down in history as an extraordinary lord, he could not have done so without the constant support and counsel of his wife, Mercedes, whose wisdom and guidance brought prosperity to the people. Will Ingrid still want to be a knight? I just love this because you can see how it both fits Ingrid's dream and her past. The womanly knight herself! She isn't the most exciting female character on the list, but a solid character overall. Ahaha... ha... Well, I have no regrets. Because on the surface, it seems like they should get together. Good for her! While she does indeed love her father and contemplates if she should just follow his wishes, I do believe her ultimate happiness comes when she is able to follow her own dreams and become a knight. When the war at last came to an end, Byleth and his wife, Ingrid, relocated to her hometown. Though known as a philanderer in youth, Sylvain happily settled down after marriage and became a gentle and devoted husband and father. For him, women wanted his Crest and title. Similar to Ashe, both Ingrid and Raphael are similar in that they aspire to be knights, although Raphael has a wildly different set of reasons than Ashe. He shows his true self to her pretty quickly, and says the things in his heart. Well, now that I got the chance to read them and give them so thought, I gotta say I agree with you. Entrusting the future of Fódlan to his friends, Claude left for Almyra with Ingrid, whom he intended to marry. And he is clearly very happy in this ending, in love and working hard for Foldan. As Faerghus worked with the Church of Seiros to advance policy, Ingrid served as an envoy between the two. It just shows how much they've always cared about each other, still care about each other, and she's like the only one he gets so shy he runs away from her. Both endings are not bad. She learns, with the help of Dedue, that her anger towards all of Duscur is a tragic mistake. I choose to believe she does, but that could be wishful thinking. It completely slipped my mind and I hadn't even read them before this. Well, for a few reasons. Their supports were sweet, and funny, but the ending does Ingrid a bit dirty. Although I did admire him quite a lot. I hope you continue to enjoy them! G: Dimitri: This ending seems at first to be the most direct of Ingrid's ending for her to achieve her dreams of becoming a knight as well as fitting with her past with Glenn. Btw, this ending also has that same line from VD/SS. Here is what you got to do to make it happen. It suggests that if paired with Sylvain, Mercedes would have taken up a more general role instead of a primarily military one when it came to ruling. Ingrid returns a lot, but only when her dream to serve the royal family as a knight isn't realized or if she marries Felix outside of the BL route. Not a fan of the Sylvain ending. Her Church/GD-Byleth ending lets her still fulfill the physical aspect of being a knight but lacking the distinction which is a really odd choice by the writers. I'm not really going to say much here, other than her BL route clearly is the happier one overall. At his side every step of the way was Ingrid, who left House Galatea to serve House Blaiddyd as a knight. Her whole life was dedicated to stepping into knighthood. D. Ashe: I love the Ashe and Ingrid endings, as you could probably guess. There were many depictions of her bravery in battle, of course, but later generations would most fondly remember the way he captured her smile, which was widely believed to be that of a loving wife. Well, I would strongly argue for BL. When Galatea territory was seized, Ingrid argued strongly for the preservation of its borders. Other characters should've spoken up about this in-game or somehow through supports. They both suffered for them. Hilda! Paired endings are more than just shipping tools. He initially signed on as a knight, but quickly discovered that his services were even more desperately needed by the land's farmers, and instead focused his efforts on helping Galatea improve its agriculture. Misguided does not equal evil, or even terrible. I really like that you examined her relationship with her father, the difference in routes, and whether or not she becomes a knight. They were adorable in there A support. Dimitri's ending makes for a much better tale for her. They complete each other in a way that I believe few can. Anyways, I decided to move onto Sylvain! Heh heh... link. Sylvain was ever loyal to his beloved wife. Which ending can fulfill this dream for her? Although I'm not certain if Ingrid continues to serve as a knight after marrying Dimitri. Childhood Friend Romance: Ingrid, Dimitri, Sylvain, and Felix spent their childhood together, and Ingrid can end up married to Dimitri, Sylvain, or Felix, while Felix can be paired with Sylvain (Dimitri's ending with him is purely platonic, as he is stated to have married someone else). What I like about them, though, is that not only do we see some character growth for Sylvain, but we also see what's beneath the mask he wears. Though he went down in history as an extraordinary lord, he could not have done so without the constant support and counsel of his wife, Ingrid, whose wisdom and tenacity ensured that the people would prosper. She protects him as Glenn did. I.... messed up, and made the comments separate. I have no objections to this union. I also love that the ending leaves the romance up in the air between the two. That said, her endings with Felix and Sylvain are pretty cute too, with the former being "promise from years ago being kept" while the latter is basically "babies ever after". Everything rides on her, because she's the only one bearing a Crest. Once I reach her, you will see a very different ranking for her! All the childhood friends can A support Ingrid because (let's face it), she's a woman and they're men. Press J to jump to the feed. Also in this group is the Normal-Other, Ignatz-Other and Ashe-Other. Her BE-Byleth ending is her Normal ending but with hubby Byleth and somehow fixing the region's crappy soil to make it the most prosperous and fertile anywhere. It seems that she won't marry Glenn after all, as her dream is to be a knight from beginning. That's pretty damn in character for him. That took forever. Ah, Claude. The couple built a loving home life, surrounded by happy children, and when Sylvain at last passed away, he was succeeded by his oldest child, who bore no Crest. She actually chased him around the palace. And it also works well for Ignatz. And together, they were able to rebuild the relationship between the two nations. Ahhh, food solves so many problems! This is a dark, sad, unfulfilling ending where both suffer. It's one of the reasons why I really like Seteth. And I love how she becomes a mirror image of Kyphon (from Ashe's supports), who parried an assassin's blade to protect the king. But this is an important relationship. I'm also not a fan of Claude telling her to smile more or to stop being so uptight. I'm glad you enjoyed it! However, it's pretty amusing that while he was considered a wonderful lord, he was so renown for his cheating that cheaters were literally called his "sons", or at least the sons of his household. I believe they are close friends, and I can even see romantic chemistry, but I don't think they overall bring each other their own best endings. Well, that's a tough one. Although the sudden talk of marriage between them came out of nowhere and was kind of odd and out of place, overall the supports were pleasant and believable. Felix departed as soon as the job was finished, however, and the two never met again. Much like Felix, it's kinda interesting how there's no difference between Ingrid's CF Endings and VW/SS Endings outside of Byleth. Both bring about prosperity to their territories. Next up is Marianne! The first is that, there isn't a need for an A support. And their supports are endearing. But you've made my day! The lines are below in English version. With the support of his wife's counsel, the new Margrave Gautier was able to improve relations with the Sreng people, and thereby convince the local nobles that Relics and Crests were no longer an absolute requirement for survival. But, she seems happy here. In B support of Ingrid/Dimitri，Dimitri said “You would do well to rethink that ideal.” There is another question: Ingrid claims that her dream is to be a knight, but is it really her dream? To your point about the depth of Sylvain’s relationship with Dimitri, Sylvain is the most vocally concerned about Dimitri of the childhood friends in Crimson Flower. From the sounds of it, with her support with Seteth, her father may be stubborn but not unreasonable. Not later, but now. Having the other girl rubbing them felt really nice, she had very soft hands. I don't want to lose anyone anymore. Her childhood friends Felix, Sylvain, and Dimitri are nobility. APOLOGIZE? They literally only had each other left, after abandoning everything else. But like you said, "Warrior Queen" is super badass and great for Ingrid. The non-BL ending is her typical goes back to territory to govern for people/family sake. Maybe not as cool as "Warrior Queen", but her dream is still fully realized here. I agree with your analysis of their relationship. "Your advice applies to you too, Ingrid. He's friendly, outgoing, and exudes a confident atmosphere, but he actually closed off his heart from people getting too close. I find it interesting that her ending with Sylvain doesn't change depending on her route. All in all, a wonderfully pleasant ending. I don't want to lose anyone anymore. B. Byleth: Honestly I hadn't given this paired ending any thought before. But on the other, she cares about her territory and her family. I was super excited for this character before the game released, and overall wasn't disappointed. Basically equal we have Mercedes, Ingrid, Felix, and Dorothea. Ingrid attributes her trauma for Duscur Tragedy to the people of Duscur and treats them with prejudice as a result. Her best endings are easily the ones in BL and especially the ones where she becomes a knight. Ingrid has demonstrated in her supports that she fully understands her father's position, even if it goes against her own dreams, and has an internal struggle within her of whether to leave duty behind and become a knight, or to fulfill her father's wishes. : 2nd Word Count: 573 Words. So now, she no longer feels obligated towards duty and is free to finally become a knight. This ending is more about duty but duty is something Ingrid understands well from knightly times during the war. Oops that's not quite right. When I try to find some evidences of my point , I find out that there is a big difference between English version and Japanese version in support B with Mercedes. Starting with the top, we have Byleth-BL and Ashe-BL. Their supports come off as platonic, but they have such great chemistry I cannot say that I am surprised to see that there are legends in this ending that they married. They were able to go past the expectations that were placed on them, and make a future where their children, and their children's children, would never have to suffer under the same expectations again. I do believe she is happy in this ending. I am a personal sucker for her ending with Dedue. Starting with the greatest supports, we have Byleth's endings. I was disappointed there was no mention of explicit marriage since they had such great chemistry, but I think it makes sense that if they did marry, Ingrid would want to keep it kind of quiet and not let it overshadow her knightly duties. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts.
