Summary
The war for Elibe had ended. Zephiel had won, completely and utterly. The other nations of Elibe were crushed, never to rise up again against him or stand in the way of his dream. But unknown to Zephiel, Idunn wants no part in ruling the world she helped burn.
A foolhardy plan and desperate attempt lead to a cosmic fluke, and Idunn finds herself freed from Zephiel, free to try and atone for the sins she believes herself guilty of.
In other words... A story that follows the idea of 'what if Zephiel had won?' Someone goes back in time to fix things, but it's not Roy. No, this is about Idunn getting the chance to shine as a protagonist.

Summary
*DISCONTINUED, MAY REWRITE.*
A Hero's tenure in the Order of Heroes was always meant to end. But what happens when it does? Takes place after the events of Heroes. Askr and the Order of Heroes are only mentioned briefly.
A compilation of mini-series set in the homeworlds of Heroes(and maybe characters who aren't just yet) who may have met their end too early or otherwise met some terrible fates.
This is their happy ending.
*Minor/Major spoilers for Fire Emblem: Mystery/New Mystery of the Emblem, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, Fire Emblem: Blazing Blade, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, and Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade*
Relationship tags with "&" are platonic, with some implied romance, and tags w/ "/" are romantic
Lots of violence and some mature themes that a few characters talk about/address. Chapters with blood/gore/really foul language include: "Death's Angel Comes for Thee", "Divine Justice" and "Valor and Honor". Skip these if you are sensitive to such topics.
There is canon divergence, so not all spoilers totally apply.

Summary
The winter after Nergal's defeat, Nino's uncle Canas and his wife Ivy perish in an avalanche in the mountains of Ilia. Unable to stay with Canas's mother without sacrificing her own mental wellbeing and unable to leave Hugh there alone in good conscience, Nino takes Hugh and moves south-- as far as she can go, until she stops feeling phantoms crawling up her back.
The journey is a long one, and it takes them through Ilia, into Sacae and Bern, and over to Lycia, providing many familiar faces along the way, and a few hard lessons. But even when the walking is done and they settle down, the journey isn't over. Guardianship-- motherhood-- isn't something that ever just ends, and intentionally or not, it's what Nino has walked into.
This is a story about family-- about growing up alone, finding a new family and having it pulled away, taking what's left of it into one's own hands, and learning to make peace with the loneliness one started out with. It all comes back to the beginning like the turning of the seasons and the rolling of a wheel, a cycle of growth and healing. It's tough, but at least Nino isn't alone.

Summary
In the midst of the Disruption of Bern, the Etrurian army's general, Roy, turns a year older. Perhaps this time around, though, all he would have to show for it was the flicker of the candle at his desk.

the red of wings and roses by adelleein

05 May 2019
Tags
Summary
Under a rosebush, a princess meets her knight for the first time. Some years later, they meet again. The rest isn't a fairytale, but it's magical all the same.
This is a very soft M, but darker than my usual fare. Warning for some mentions/brief discussion of suicide, implied sexual content, and a fair bit of blood. Nothing is very explicit, but use your own discretion!

Leila Support Conversations by roxanna_rambles

Summary
Support conversations in the hypothetical universe where it’s possible to recruit Leila in FE7. (The recruitment would probably be in the chapter ‘Noble Lady of Caelin’ when we first meet Leila, with her automatically joining the party at the end of the chapter.)

Summary
Marcus and Merlinus are very much connected. They both survive the events of Fe7 no matter what (even if you can’t use Marcus after he “dies”) and both even go on to advise Roy. Neither of them has a canonical spouse nor was it explicitly stated they were married. They both, however, are the only paired ending the other can have in Fe7. In this essay, I will

Summary
It was there, seeing the boy’s chest softly rise and fall, that she realized that not only did he not deserve to die, but that no one deserved to die.
It was shortly thereafter, staring down a cackling, wicked woman, that she changed her mind. Some people did deserve to die.
But not him.

This is a Fire Emblem fanfiction set in Elibe, the world of FE6 (Binding Blade) and FE7 (Blazing Blade). Staying true to the original fiction laid out by the games themselves, this fanfic tries to fill in some of the gaps between FE6 and its prequel. Some characters who had major roles in FE7 were nowhere to be seen in FE6. What were they up to? How did Zephiel go from being an innocent heir to the throne to a vicious antagonist?
These questions and more are answered in a series of vignettes that move forward and backward through time--think like the memory fragments in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. Maybe some of these gaps will be filled in officially in Fire Emblem Echoes: Scars of the Scouring. But until then...

Summary
Many know who Marcus is. The paladin that runs around and one-shots anything in your lord's path. The man who served Elbert, Eliwood, and Roy, through good times and bad. The legend that climbs to the tops of tier lists. A short story focusing on moments in Marcus's life, from pre-FE7 to the end of FE6. Spoilers for both Elibe games. One-shot.

Summary
Eliwood had tasked his faithful servant Merlinus to guide and watch over his son and his army, but little did he know, he would end up being the only sane one there. A series of warnings and comments to each member of the group after every battle. FE6, spoilers for both Elibe games. Total crack. [recently edited to remove some unfortunate content]
