Is Dimitri... DEAD?! (This video is sponsored by the Adrestian Empire.)
Thanks for watching! Hoping you learned something new!
A follow up to the Three Houses theories series! watch the other two here:
Edelgard Theories: czcams.com/video/ZqRVB-7cmBY/video.html
Sothis's Origin?: czcams.com/video/EvU2oXLjozo/video.html
Dedue not saying anything about Dimitri's status and just outright storming Enbarr on a suicide mission to get Edelgard's head seems like a strong enough reaction for me to conclude that Dimitri was dead. So I find that odd to be used as a defense by anyone to say he is actually alive.
Yeah I agree. The second I saw Dedue in SS, I never doubted that Dimitri was dead. Also "ghost" Dimitri implies that Gustave and Rodrigue died at Gronder too. But I can't remember if he says Dedue survived or died there.
Edit: apparently Dimitri thought Dedue was dead. But Dedue is clearly alive in SS. Maybe Dimitri wouldn't have committed suicide if he knew Dedue had survived?
I remember that there was this cutscene (I'm not sure if it's a hidden cutscene that I found on Switch) but Byleth sees Dimitri and talks about being death Byleth wonders about this person and then Seteth shows up and is still curious about it, Seteth concludes that they're hallucinating. I don't think it's hallucinating by chance that's probably an interpretation that Dimitri died and because Byleth is a God they could see the souls that end up roaming Fodlan. This was after the taking of Shambhala but before the Rhea turns into a dragon incident.
That being said it's probably more or less implied that Dimitri dies since I always think of Silver Snow being the route you save no lord.
Edit: I found the link to the scene im talking about czcams.com/video/5yfrkYbEM-k/video.html
Dimitri didn't committed suicide he's just delusional and foolishly challenged a horde of foes and endangered his friends and himself and dedue wasn't there because he got severely injured when saving Dimitri from a jail cell
@@tanachisan True but at the same time each route is more of an alternative universe on how Edelgard’s war go and not really the cannon. I’d say the only thing that’s canon throughout the series is White Clouds. Alternatively if you didnt save Dedue he actually dies in the Azure Moon route, I mean yes Dimitri charged into battle recklessly which caused his death anyways, and sort of know that he wants to die doesn’t care about not dying in vain.
Dedue clearly believed that Dimitri was dead perhaps seeing him struck down by empire soldiers. However, Dimitri has extraordinary resilience both physically and mentally so it wouldn't be too crazy to imagine that he managed to survive long enough to be saved especially seeing as how healing magic and miraculous medicine are relatively common in this setting.
Also Dedue's loyalty is strong enough that I could easily see him trying to complete a suicidal mission for Dimitri even if Dimitri was merely maimed or incapacitated rather than outright dead. He'd still try to get revenge for the Kingdom's defeat by Edelgard regardless of Dimitri's condition.
Something i noticed about Dimitri in my first silver snow playthrough, was that he refers to Gilbert as Gustav. As the player, we never learn that Gustav is Gilbert's real name in silver snow, so i find it highly unlikely that the Dimitri we saw was a figment of Byleth's imagination and much more likely that we saw his spirit or some sort of apparition of the man himself. Also in the scene, he acts like his reformed self from the latter half of azure moon, yet the game uses his portrait with the dark rings under his eyes from when he's less sane, as if he reformed after death but his ghost /spirit keeps his appearance from when he died.
I agree, but maybe it's possible that Annette technically mentioned her dad's real name during monastery exploration too? As a possible explanation.
That's actually a really good point....
Also, did Byleth ever actually see Post-Timeskip Dimitri before that cutscene? They weren’t there at Gronder, and they can’t see his portrait on the map screen like we can. Maybe Dimitri wasn’t just seeing things when he said he was seeing ghosts…
@L.N. Nope, I've been playing the game to hell and back, and Annette never actually mentions her father's name, she justs asks you if you've seen him or not but that's that, multiple times, so yeah there is no way Byleth would know it from her, maybe offscreen? But I really doubt the probability of that occurring.
I'd wish if more people did more 3H mysteries and theories like this series! There's so much unexplained or hidden knowledge in the game and I really just want an excuse to talk more about it.
I m quite sure fire emblem fate and fire emblem 3H are connectedand no one seems to know.
Honestly anything related to TWSITD is a goldmine of unexplained theories. Ghast actually made a pretty comprehensive video on TWSITD a little while back that I've been meaning to sit down and watch.
I had actually assumed that Byleth's fainting spell was somehow linked to the experiments being done in Remire Village as Hubert notes that Edelgard has also not been well around the same time. Something so bad that was happening that it not only effected Sothis and Byleth but also Edelgard who also has the Crest of flames. Now though I wonder if it just so happened to be the anniversary of Sothis's death.
IMO Dmitri is super dead. I think the key is when, as you point out, Seteth says that Dmitri was looking for you to guide him. A similar thing happens to Edelgard in two of the four stories where right before you deal the fatal blow she says something like "I only wanted to walk beside you." I don't think they're saying that Dmitri's soul is coming to you for guidance NOW. Instead, Seteth is insinuating that this person could have been saved...if you had chosen the Blue Lions all those years ago and took Dimitri under your wing. The game does like to point out the consequences of your choices and the fact that there is no "golden path" where everyone comes out ok. To me this is a shot at the player saying you could have saved him you know...maybe if you play through this again, you'll have the chance to find out.
Claude is also lamenting in CF that you chose Edelgard over him. Which is also were he can die.
@@Ninjaananas Exactly. Dorothea is always mentioning how Edelgard was without a compass without you in CF, and only by having you back can she have a good end. It seems all three leaders are hinged on your choice, which to me is why Silver Snow is the worst because in that one, none of the house leaders end up really happy.
@@boo-rian2717
Silver Snow generally feels depressing.
@@boo-rian2717 I absolutely agree, as Silver Snow route is purely selfish for answering questions about Byleth themselves rather than saving Fodland. Dimitri is assumed dead, Claude leaves Fodland, and Edelgard dies by ur hand. All the leaders are abandoned and the route is mostly about finding out Byleths path, and what that means for the future of Fodland. It's kinda cynical and shows just how far u have to go just to answer ur own questions.
@@TheUnseenFuture I can definitely see that if you know what's going on and you make your choice, but I don't assume that has the be the case. My first time playing through I chose the Golden Deer, so I may not really understand, but I imagine had I chosen Crimson Flower and gotten to the moment of truth where you had to choose, I probably would have stayed with the Church just because what Edelgard and her forces were doing at that point were "Bad Guy 101" moves. Later I'd have found out that the Church wasn't so innocent, but considering all of this routes from a choice of house leadership right at the start of the game in which Byleth would have no idea of the eventual consequences, it may have just ended up being fate's cruelest twist rather than anything self-indulgent on Byleth's part.
Some interesting points for sure.
Another big question about FE3H that's never really addressed is the 'Forbidden Spell Zaharas" which Solon uses to send Byleth and Sothis 'somewhere'. It's a place that's filled with darkness and something about it makes Sothis feel uneasy, like it holds some sort of inherent danger to her, and in order to leave it requires the power of a deity, or their equivilent.
But what is the Darkness of Zaharas anyway? Is it the space between life and death? Is it the space which separates the different worlds/outrealms from one another? You know, the one that can normally only be crossed by a Dragon Gate?
Any thoughts or ideas?
Camus is also a blonde man who also seemingly died. Improbable, but i like the idea that he survived but vanished too
Theory time: I don’t think he was actually dead. I think that he was trying to imply that he was either going to end it all or leave Fodlan. I also have the strangest feeling that they’re gonna pull a(I think his name is Camus?) and have him appear in a different game with a new name(and appearance) where he will vaguely drop hints to who he really is.
That's an incredible idea! I haven't played Silver Snow in all honesty (I don't want to give up one of the Lord characters if I can help it), but I would 100% go back and do so if a different game pulled that off. They could even have Camus-Dimitri be route/path exclusive or optional, so that it's not confirmed if this route was canon or not.
It would be interesting to see him in another game with a new identity, whoever that would mean that Silver Snow is canon and that would defeat the purpose of Three Houses. Which is to choose your own path, but hey if it means he's still alive somewhere else than you'll hear no complaints from me.
@@ashenwolf3846 I was thinking about that and it doesn’t actually necessarily mean that silver snow is the canon ending. It just means that the kingdom is the only route that is no longer possible. You could say that Edelgard didn’t commit to killing him in the Black Eagles route or that he didn’t die at ground or field and the golden deer route.
@@ashenwolf3846 That's why I mention optional and/or route exclusive. That way fans don't have to recruit him if they feel as if that's not their preferred story. There could also just be a line thrown in about the Dimitri we me being from a different timeline, or making it ambiguous. I guess I'm trying to say that there are several ways to have a cake and eat it too if developers try and are creative.
That is a really cool idea. I would love it if they to such a thing but the problem with that is how the devs. wanted FE3H to be. With Dimitri existing in other games it would mean that silver snow is the "golden" route which would conflict with the idea of the devs. not having a golden route in 3H. Still I love the idea of that.
EDIT: and before people are commenting that is was already said let me say one thing. I didn't read the comments before posting.
Byleth's fainting is not about Sothis' memory and paralogue; it coincides with a lot of other things going on in the story. Solon leaves the monastery that month. Thales had just visited the monastery. Sothis feels sick too, yes, but so does Edelgard, and Dimitri's headaches begin then also. And Byleth is ill for the entire month, not just when they faint with Jeralt. All this strongly suggests the Agarthans' involvement.
I actually really like the ghost Dimitri scene from SS. I find it helps add a bit of finality and tragedy to his death, especially since all of Gronder happened off-screen. And, as others have mentioned, it adds a nice bit of guilt to the player that they weren't there to give Dimitri his happy ending. I certainly preferred it over VW, where Dimitri is reported dead by Hilda and that's that.
Agree. At least SS gave minor closure for Dimitri. VW gave him nothing at all.
@@l.n.3372 Yes, closure is a good word for it!
@@TEK427
Tbh I'd not have complained if this weird spirit Dimitri was also in VW too. With Claude taking the role of Seteth for that scene instead.
I feel like the Byleth heartbeat sound makes more sense than the other sound effect, as though he it started for a second out of nowhere due to Sothis' memories and the shock caused him to faint.
It honestly makes no sense since Byleth has no heartbeat thematically until the end of Crimson Flower so having them randomly have one right here would kind of be weird and they later cleared this up
Dmitri has so many people convinced of his demise; this must mean he's alive.
To be fair, the circumstances around his death are super murky in most routes. The chaos of a three-way battlefield is pretty intense and for someone as resilient as Dimitri being able to crawl away and survive is hardly the most unbelievable thing to have happened under those conditions.
@@kylepessell1350 Any good fighting instructor worth his salt will tell you that no matter how good or how resilient of a fighter you are the numbers game will eventually wear you down, Dimitri is no exception despite canonically having ner super human levels of strength. Yeah I think Dimitri is super dead and that you saw his ghost in Silver Snow.
An unexplained topic I've always been curious of: What is the deal with Anna having the Crest of Ernest? How did she acquire it? And why is Ernest lost to history? What are people's theories with it?
According to the game her crest is natural so I imagine she inherited it. And as to why it is lost to history her ancestors might have had a similar story to Maurice and his clan, the head of the family turned into a monster and killed innocent people so they killed his entire clan leaving only a few members alive who escaped persecution so to avoid attracting attention Anna's ancestors decided to live as wandering merchants and abandoned their name of Ernest.
Personally I think anna is actually one of the daughters of the goddess
It’s possible the fainting spell that Byleth felt was the exact moment (hundreds of years ago) that Sothis died.
It was over 1000 years before
I really wish 3H got the development time it deserved, the game did great in so many ways but it's sadly still so much got cut from it...
Three Houses desperately needs a Maniacs version like Shin Megami Tensei 3.
Well. Fire emblem entered the mainstream league thanks to the pairing simulator. So they will get more bigger budget next time.
@@raychii7361 We said that about Three Houses with all the Heroes money.
@@paladinslash4721 I just want a fire emblem where it's impossible to farm xp and be a real hard strategic game. I'm getting tired of all those easy one shot kill.
I also want ballista back.
@@raychii7361 are you telling me you dislike being 40 levels overleveled at any given time 🤨?
Just imagine how chaotic it would have been to be one of the flame army sildiers hiding in the catacombs of garrag mach. On one side you have a bandit king pretty boy stealing your stuff whenever you look away for a second, and on the other you have spectral ghost soldiers and golem monsters summoned by a dragon waifu slaughterinf anyone who wandered into the wrong room. Then you go out on a mission and have your princess ans her vampire boyfriend kill ypu just to maintian their cover.
I really think the Dimitri scene was the writers wanting you to at least one scene with Dimitri in the silver snow playthrough because otherwise he'd be completely absent from the second half of the game.
Claude is completely absent from SS in part 2. So I guess that's not necessarily a problem. But perhaps they wanted to emphasize Dimitri more in SS because Faerghus connects more to the church of Seiros than the Leicester Alliance does overall.
@@l.n.3372 Claude at least gets focus in Blue Lions and Crimson Flower. While Dimitri doesn't get any focus in Verdant Wind aside from his death. And without this scene Silver Snow he wouldn't appear so I just think they wanted Dimitri to have something.
@@PhillipOnTakos
Claude gets less focus than Dimitri in CF tho. Claude is just a minor stepping stone. Dimitri and Rhea are the main focus on CF as enemies. If Claude wasn't there at all, it wouldn't have changed much. You could probably have made Hilda the boss of that CF chapter. Or Holst! That would have been awesome!
I think Dimitri is likely dead in SS given the somber tone of the route overall. While playing SS it felt to me as if there is a focus on the whole this is the results of you not guiding a lord and perhaps if you had belived in one of them they could have been save.Also with whole spirit/ghost theme was mentioned in a support conversation between Annette and Claude he mentions he was researching Faergus folklore and mentioned that some thought the souls of those who die with regrets are said to end up wandering in limbo.
Yeah the Annette/Claude support is ironically a good explanation for a lot of Dimitri's haunted actions. But it's simultaneously not available on AM because it's a Claude locked route.
@@l.n.3372 I do wonder if supports like that were meant to fit in with getting questions answered on different routes theme three houses had going. But I think it just stuck out to me because I replayed VW right after SS and paired Annette and Claude on that replay lol.
@@melancholymercury
I'll be honest, I think cross house support are good but can be super annoying if on routes where it has no impact. Like, as we said above, Annette explaining Faerghus tradition to Claude is good world building ... But it's on the wrong route! It should have been her support with someone else in AM, that way you could understand Faerghus better in the route where Dimitri saves his homeland. If it was only added to give context to Dimitri in VW, that's kinda sloppy writing, IMO, because it doesn't matter to the story of VW at all.
@@l.n.3372 I agree with you. I wish parts of the story were executed better.
@@melancholymercury
Oh definitely. I have a huge love/hate with 3H with an overall emphasis on love. I've played the game 15+ times with about 800 hours by now. All my criticism are just from a place of wanting my favorite FE game to be better. But it's great to chat!
My theory was that since Sothis realizes she’s the goddess, and she has a soft spot for Byleth, and knows how much Dimitri cares about Byleth, she probably probably allowed Dimitri’s spirit to speak with Byleth before moving on to the after life to comfort him. It would be strange if that wasn’t the case since Byleth probably doesn’t even know how Dimitri as an adult look in the Silver Snow route since they never ran into eachother, and he’s seeing this Dimitri with an eyepatch no less. Ok now time for me to watch to see what you come up with
When I first played I definitely assumed Dimitri was dead in that scene but I also thought it was a weird thing to put in just because it felt so random. Like if we're having Byleth guide the dead along, alot of people close to us die in the game so they could have done more with that
I never noticed they took away the heart beat sound effect. What the actual hell I thought that was intentional!
My interpretation was that, for whatever reason, Byleth’s heart DID inexplicably start beating which- for whatever reason- put Byleth’s body in shock, and thus caused the fainting.
My assumption was that the cold, emotionless Ashen Wolf was starting to feel finally emotions; in other words, growing a heart.
Do you mean Ashen Demon?
@@bernadettavarley Yes... yes I did.
According to the DLC, Byleth never had their own heart at all. They have Sitri's heart and Sothis' crest stone but they wouldn't be able to live under their own power.
@@kylepessell1350 I don't think that's what the DLC was saying.
I think Sitri's heart _was_ the crest stone, so the crest stone that Byleth has is Sitri's heart and the human heart he has is just a faulty (Sort of) one sitting there derping.
@@bernadettavarley I just finished the DLC yesterday and Rhea specifically said that Sitri's heart was the one in Byleth's chest because Byleth's wasn't working after they were born. I can't think of any other way to interpret this other than literally a heart transplant.
Was there ever a theory that Claude had some degree of clairvoyance?
The guy seems to act and do things like he kinda just "knew" things would go a certain way. The way he wasn't surprised after the time skip, the shot at the final cinematic, his aloof yet confident personality, even I think a letter given to Dimitri in the BE playthrough?
Im not particularly a fan of your interpretation of Byleth fainting, I usually go with the heartbeat theory that Byleth finally started to feel emotion and the shock of Remire news hit home for them for the first time in..ever, really
Humanizes Byleth a lot
I was thinking something a little more grim than that. Given that Rhea placed her mother’s crest stone inside Byleth, it’s possible that this “heartbeat” was a sign to show the crest stone slowly taking over. That also explains why the ritual didn’t work after Sothis transferred her power into Byleth because it was meant for Sothis to completely take over Byleth’s body.
About that scene in Silver Snow, Byleth probably just eat the weeds.
I'd like to believe that Dimitri is still alive and decided to go with Claude to Almyra to start a new life, somewhere where he doesn't have to dwell on his failures and can find peace. Maybe that's all he really needed in the end. As for Byleth fainting there is a possibility that it might be linked to Sitri's extremely frail body and that Byleth might have had a moment of it happening to them, however I do like the possibility of it being linked to Sothis trying to regain her memory of Zanado, but these are all theories.
I know it's subjective but I def don't agree. Not because I want Dimitri to be dead. But because I don't think Claude and Dimitri have that close of a bond, especially not in SS. In AM, that's the closest they ever really get to being friends, and even then Claude leaves Fodlan in Dimitri's hands and then leaves the story.
@@l.n.3372 Claude made it clear even in his own Route's ending that he planned to leave to Almyra. Who's to say that he didn't take Dimitri with him out of pity. Than again it's like you said its all subjective.
@@ashenwolf3846
"Out of pity" is a really weird justification for a character who barely interacts with Dimitri at all on most routes. They aren't really close at all. Only in AM did they even sorta get closer, as I said.
Yes, I'm aware Claude always planned to return to Almyra. My point is that Dimitri is never part of Claude's plans or ideas. Because Dimitri isn't that important to Claude. So imagining a world where they both go to Almyra post war feels OOC for them both.
@@ashenwolf3846 You’re forgetting that, like the other two lords, Claude is selfish. In Claude’s case he is secretive about his plans and even when A rank with Lorenz and paired in the ending he doesn’t explain to the dude his plans, he just shows back up on his life after becoming Almyran royalty. In AM he ditches his duties and dumps them onto an already psychotic and broken Dimitri. Claude is self serving first and considerate second. He’s just VERY charismatic and nice about it.
If Claude ever did bring Dimitri with him It's because he sees some kind of use out of having him around.
I really hope that Three Hopes answers some of the questions brought up in Three Houses, but I'm quite sure we won't have answers for many of them
Dimitri's scene with Byleth in silver Snow is one of the only I like more than verdant wind. It's beautiful scene.
Its definitely meant to be left up to interpretation.
We really need an FE3H sequel. There are so many open ends I need to explained, so much lore to discover.
Maybe not an outright sequel, but maybe an interquel or a prequel could work. If there was something that took place after FE3H, they would have to either make one route canon, create a sequence of events that is not possible in the original game, or have four routes again, with all kinds of different consequences for each one (which house leader[s] are dead/MIA, who’s ruling Fódlan, the resulting political situation, etc.).
Or have a time-traveling Byleth. It would be “after” FE3H from their perspective but during or before it from everyone else’s perspective.
Something to note is that if the fainting spell is related to Sothis' paralogue and her memories, it's likely the fainting spell was caused by a memory piercing the minds of Byleth and Sothis at the same time. But what memory is it is the question. I think I know which given the Red Canyon plays such a big part in it. It's the memory of Sothis' death. Think about it, in the original version there's a heartbeat but it's not Byleth's. It could be the sound of Sothis' before she died, in her last moments after being fatally wounded, hearing her heartbeat as it fades. Would explains the dizziness as it'd trigger a response in Byleth, causing the body to give out for a brief moment. But that's assuming the attack in her sleep didn't kill her instantly. That's where the second sound comes in as that could be the sound of the weapon piecing Sothis in her sleep, killing her. We know that the Red Canyon was likely where Sothis was slain being it was where all her kind lived prior to the tragedy. So both sounds could make sense if it is a memory piercing the minds of Sothis and Byleth briefly.
But that's just a theory.... A Fire Emblem theory! Thanks for reading.
Having played Verdant Wind twice and more than halfway through Azure Moon, Dimitri dying at Gronder Field sounds very possible. When I played through Verdant Wind, Dimitri told Dedue to retreat when he’s defeated but Dimitri is off screen killed by Imperial soldiers, possibly a last ditch effort to pursuit Edelgard as he calls out for her when he’s defeated. It’s only after Rodrigue sacrifices himself from an assassination attempt does Dimitri begin to wake up.
but byleth haven’t met dimitri after the timeskip..how did they know what he looked like?
I always took the fainting moment to be the moment Byleths emotions and "personality" truly begin to awaken
Part of me thinks the whole faitning thing was just Byleth genuinly getting sick lol, maybe to just ground the character a little. Everyone comments on him looking pale and sick that month too.
Another theory i suppose could be plausible is that whatever the experiment was, the groundwork for it was laid out when Byleth and Jeralt were staying there, so Byleth fainting was just him getting affected by the experiment, while Jeralt was unaffected since the kind of blood used for the experiement already flows through his veins
Thank you so much for this video! I have been trying to puzzle out why Byleth faints for months now. Great insight as always.
Great Job! I really appreciated the video.
Next theories i would like to see analysed are:
1) Seiros and Whilelm I love story: It Is implied that the two were lovers in One of the Books of the Shadow library and during One dialogue with Dimitri in White clouds (I can't remember the chapter in which that happens, I only Remember that Is One of two possibile choises and ONLY if you are female Byleth).
2) Flayn/Cethlean as a goddess of love and Lust. In the Shadow library there Is a book in which Seteth signed and declared as illegal to read. That book Is a sort of "Kamasutra" of fodlan and Is referred as a book of love practics performed and created by Cethlean. Pheraps that's why Seteth Is over proctective with Flayn's love affairs.
3) (Maybe that's stupid) Yuri's true name and identity. Some belive that Is actually Leon from the SoV game. He Is found unconscious and saved by One of the four saints.
4) Geralt's true age.
5) Where are all the other Rhea clones exept for Sitri.
6) why does sothis shows herself to us only in her child form. That specific form Is also not known by Rhea.
7) the true identity of the Golems (sieros's Brothers and sisters? There Is a Crest Stone in their chest unlike other mechanical church enemies)
8) The sacred weapons lore, expecially the axe of Ukonkosovara, scythe of sariel and the ochain Shield.
9) Anna's Crest.
I know that this comment Is extremely long, but I freaking love this game!
PS: Sorry for my English. It's not my native language
1) I wasn't aware of this lol
2) Flayn doesn't have any descendants as per her own words. So idk if she'd write anything related to that topic. It probably wasn't written by anything to do with her.
3) Yuri's name is an interesting topic. But we don't have enough to go on for facts. I don't think he's Leon tho, because that's a bit of a cop out, similar to Camus/Zeke.
4) I think they said Jeralt is over 100 years old. The crest of Seiros extended his lifetime.
5) I don't think Sitri was a clone per say. Rhea created her from her blood but idk if that means a clone. Either way, they probably had their own lifetimes and then passed away. Hence the crest of flames is transferred into a new host every time the old host dies of old age etc. Sitri is the most recent until Byleth because Sitri asked for the crest to be given to the baby.
6) good question regarding why Sothis choose the child like form. I don't know why they wanted that, instead of showing a more mature Sothis. Perhaps because of the voice actress voicing that cat in Persona 5? Maybe they felt a young Sothis fits the voice actress more? Or maybe they thought a young Sothis was more marketable.
7) unsure about the golems. They're definitely an odd topic, for sure.
8) the scythe of Sariel isn't a silver sacred relic. It's an Agarthan relic, and that's why you need Agarthan ore to fix it when broken. Ditto the crescent sickle too.
9) Anna probably shouldn't have a crest tbh. She isn't related to the saints, or the to apostles, or the 10 elites. It's kinda silly that she has a crest when she's just a random character with no support, and is just an Easter egg to Anna of previous FE games.
@@l.n.3372 Anna’s crest is part of the stain glass picture (with Seiros and Sothis). My personal headcanon is her crest is Flayn’s mother’s crest (I think that any new Nabatean created by two Nabateans gains their own unique crest, as opposed to inheriting a crest like one would if they were the result of a Nabatean and a human or a human and a human that had a crest back in their lineage).
@@asmrtpop2676
Just because they randomly gave Anna the crest of Ernest, that doesn't mean there's a good justification for it. As I said above, she's just a random merchant Easter egg to the previous Anna in past games. There's absolutely no reason for her to be included within the exclusive list of characters who have crest.
@@l.n.3372 For number 6 they actually given reasons for this iirc, Sothis doesn't remember who she is and so appears as a child. The big lady in the menu opening song with green hair and dragons around her is actually adult Sothis not Seiros. The other meta reason is likely due to marketing and a kid goddess being a more interesting idea as one that doesn't remember much.
@@excalibur2772
I'm aware it's Sothis and not Seiros. But just because she doesn't remember her adult form, doesn't technically mean they had to show her as a child. They could have given her a more teenager form or something closer to Byleth age, which IMO would have made more sense.
One of the best thumbnails on the channel so far
Just a clarification for Byleth fainting: I don't think it's meant to hint that Sothis' paralogue was just unlocked. During the Red Wolf Moon is the Remire Village mission. Edelgard also reports feeling ill during this period to Hubert at the start of the month. Hubert notes something along the lines of her symptoms being "just like before" until Edelgard cuts him off. This suggest that Edelgard always feels ill when TWSITD are doing crest experimentations nearby.
It's much more likely that Byleth is also having a reaction to the experimentation going on in nearby Remire Village like Edelgard is hinted to. It's possible that those who have the Crest of Flames (Byleth through Rhea's... uh... heart transplant, Edelgard through TWSITD, and Sothis) react to crest experimentation. We know that TWSITD was doing a crest experiment there that drove the villagers mad. We also know that not everyone who underwent TWISTD or church experimentation feels ill, as Lysithea doesn't have any dialogue about being sick. While Sitri was sickly, that seems to be more because she wasn't... err.. "well made" rather than anything else.
So it's more likely that the Crest of Flames is reacting to the crest experiments going on in Remire, likely because it's the original crest from which all others spawned or something like that.
I've seen this theory circulated often and it was even proposed but I never bought it. The theory hinges on crest experimentation causing those with the crest of flames illness/dizziness. But how do you define experimentation? If its "people misusing crest stones", then there's so many instances where that happens but Byleth, Edelgard and Sothis are completely fine and unphased. Is Miklan's misuse of the Lance of Ruin considered experimentation? Is Flayn's blood extraction considered experimentation? Is using crest stones on students considered experimentation? What about when Edelgard turns into the Hegemon? If wolves and birds eat demonic stones and become wild demonic beasts, is that considered experimentation? There's multiple instances of this and Byleth and co. are right there, but they feel completely fine.
Its a neat theory but I think its one that ignores other instances of experiments going awry just to bring a connection with the Crest of Flames. I respect you for taking the time to write out the theory for others though, since it is a neat one.
@@Faerghast I would disagree with your loose definition of crest experimentation here. Everything you listed here are instances where the natural world interacts with crest stones (except Hegemon, obvs lol) or something that can occur naturally (someone losing blood, like Flayn. It wasn't implied that there was some kind of ritual to take it. Just that they forcibly drew her blood).
No outside interference is needed for someone to pick up a Hero's relic or a broken crest stone and have it go sideways on them. As we see in CF's route during the battle against the Kingdom, all that needs to happen to create beasts out of people is someone without a crest attempting to use a crest stone. For animals, we can see that they're usually affected by shards of crest stones or broken fragments, which suggests animal predation as their source of mutation rather than crest experimentation by the Chruch or TWISTD. No Fodlan army actually uses an animal-based crest beast ever in game, only the ones created by humans interacting with stones.
Crest experimentation in the game is consistently linked to people using the remains of the Nabeteans in unnatural ways. Rhea uses her blood (and the blood of other Nabeatean/descendants in the DLC) as well as the heart of Sothis in her experiments to bring Sothis back to life. No one could do that accidentally or have it happen naturally. TWISTD use the blood and remains of the Nabeteans they killed to force crests onto Edelgard and Lysithea, as well as create weapons out of the bones of the dead (big yikes). Same here. No one could interact with a crest stone naturally in a way that would yield those same results. It has to be done with experimentation. Likely some kind of gross blood transfusion, I'd imagine.
We don't really know what's up with Hegemon Edelgard since it's so vague in-game. I really wish we had an actual cutscene for that one. :( My best guess is it was an attempt to give her the power to transform that the Nabateans had. I would guess that is a crest experiment of some kind, but we don't see any other transformation like it. Aelfric transforms the DLC, but he doesn't keep his mind like Edelgard does. Rhea transforms, but she doesn't have any of her human form, unlike how Hegemon Edelgard is very human like, but... grosser. Haha.
That's all to say, with the exception of Hegemon Edelgard which is a "???" area, the game is very consistent when they're differentiating between the experimentation of crests that the Chruch and TWISTD do and the natural consequences of interacting with crest stones.
But everyone is welcome to have their own opinion on the matter! FE3H is an awesome game with super deep lore, and I love that so much. I do have to ask, then, why do you think the game makes it a point that Edelgard is experiencing similar symptoms to Byleth at the same time during Chapter 8? Do you think that's also in reference to Sothis' paralogue?
My personal thought (that has no proof, lol) is that TWISTD is using some of Sothis' remains in their experiment in Remire, which is why only those with the Crest of Flames feel it.
@@AxJfan Thought about it but then something makes wonder, why only the Crest of Flames? Sure in game it is incredibly powerful but there other reasons for why they are feeling sickly. Maybe Byleth inherited Sitri's frailness but it is not as bad as what she had so they are able to continue to work as a mercenary but then that gets a big hole punched through it as if that were the case than Byleth would have had more fainting spells than just during Remire a d Jeralt probably would have mentioned it at some point as he really cares about Byleth. Meh I don't have the head for the complicated stuff.
@@johnathanedwards9054 Not sure! My (baseless) theory is that it's either because TWISTD are using Sothis' remains in their experiment like they did with Edelgard (and Rhea did with Byleth) or it's because the Crest of Flames was the original crest from which all others spawned. Hannemon tells the player in the early game that the Crest of Flames is a unique, powerful crest above all of the others. It even needs a special machine to detect! It's a unique situation that the game leaves super vague, unfortunately.
@@AxJfan Well it could work if you think about another theory that has been making the rounds on forums and that is that all fire emblem protagonists have telepathic abilities as well as magical ones. The theory came about during Awakening and it has some evidence to back it up.
The thought of Dimitri's "Ghost" appearing to Byleth and speaking to them gave me literal chills... I've yet to play the SS route despite having the game for over a year, but it always intrigues me to listen to these theories and possible explanations for them.
Edit. Imo Dimitri dies at Gronder, having played AM a few times he would defs be kaput if Rodgrigue or even Byleth weren't there to save him. And since Dedue is usually level-headed and calm, I think only something as drastic as Dimitri's death would be the thing to drive him over the edge like that. As for Byleth's dream, I also think it's likely that they were asleep or daydreaming, most definitely not "conscious" and their mind was in another place. Although I feel like I'm just drawing a big red line between "Sothis living in Byleth's mind" and "Byleth accessing this power of Sothis within her own mind" - That's not what I'm trying to say though, I'm terrible at conveying my thoughts here haha...
You have No Idea how badly that Heartbeat sound effect bothered me upon completing some routes. I was led to believe that was going to be a major plotpoint, or that the inner gears were turning for some reason or another. But it was just a sign that I could get some mats, sick.
I think Byleth fainted as a side effect of begining to fuse with Sothis, but in the way RHEA WANTED.
At the end, circumstances force things to go the way we know...
Maybe this is a stretch but could it have meant that Dimitri committed suicide in a way?
Maybe his spirit wandered to Byleth in a way to let him know that he has died, hence why he says ''I came here to explain my decisions'' with stating that he has no ''resources to take back the Kingdom capital, much less defeat the Empire''. Idk that was my take on it and knowing how he was in all the other routes in de 2nd half. He only really recovers from his personal issues with the guidance of Byleth and he learns to guide the Kingdom and let go of his past, but in the other routes his sins and past always haunt him.
That is my theory. He survived Gronder, but after seeing what the consequences for his actions had led him to. He committed suicide. Either in the same way as VW or on his own.
I agree. He says that he's here to explain his decision to Byleth. Aka his suicide: he's explaining why he chose to take his life instead of continuing to fight.
Yeah that would explain his dialog in this scene. If he was killed in battle his ghost probably wouldn't have lines like "I have come to explain my decisions" but instead still have some tone of vengeance in it. In his support conversations with Gilbert it is shown that Dimitri has considered suicide as an option to end his suffering even telling Gilbert to strike him down.
In one of Claude and Annette's' supports there was something about the souls of the fallen trying to get back home - might be related to the dream about Dimitri.
dimitri is such a chad. even death doesnt stop him.
I always thought the part with dimitri was a kind of tease for players to try the blue lions house and I assumed he was dead.
What's even weirder with the sounds before Bylet faints is that the heartbeat sound should be much more powerful. Specifically because his heart isn't beating normally. That scene could have hinted a bit more about what Rhea did to Byleth, it wasn't Byleth's heart that beat so much as Sothis'.
Don't understand why they changed it.
Despite me playing through nearly all the routes, I was unaware they changed that sound effect. I played Blue Lions first and then every other route, basically skipped every scene in the following runs.
@@Practitioner_of_Diogenes
I didn't realize the sound effects were changed either. I can't remember when it changed; was it for the free update that added the maddening mode?
@@l.n.3372 I believe it was when the Ashen Wolves were added that they changed the sound effect.
Probably due to it being a dramatic effect they later realized wouldn't make sense, it wasn't supposed to be a literal heartbeat but to signify something dramatic occuring.
Ive seen some other people point this out and I do like the idea that, in Silver Snow at least, Dimitri didnt die, he just snuck into the monastery to see Byleth, as he knew that they were the only one that could really help him. He snuck in and left unseen because he knew if someone saw him (Seteth especially) they would try to get him to take his place as King of Faergus, and he likely didnt think he deserved that position. As for the other half, my thinking is that perhaps Byleth had another feinting spell, or otherwise couldnt quite remember the conversation (weak ground for this argument I know) before Dimitri could tell them of his plan. He realized that he couldnt stay after that, so he snuck back out and went into hiding. This is just a theory of course and he could very well be dead, but I do like the idea of him going into hiding and coming back in another game.
I think the new sound for Byleth fainting sounds an awful lot like either breaking a monster wall or even more like rewinding time. I'm not sure what the connection would be but it's there.
Bro, I keep forgetting about Silver Snow and how Dimitri's ghost just shows up at one point for no reason, like wtf
One subject I think would be interesting to touch upon that I don't see many people bringing up or mentioning is the possible story behind the Three Archenea Regalia and Hauteclere in Three Houses. Now, many likely wrote off these weapons being in the game as a nice little Easter Egg but I think there is more to them than just being Easter Egg. While Parthia doesn't have anything of note in its description, Hauteclere, Mercurius, and Gradivus do. Hauteclere is noted to have been wielded by someone within the Empire Wyvern Corps during the War of Heroes, Mercurius is noted to have been used during the War of the Eagle and Lion, and Gradivus is noted as having been used by a defend in Fodlan's Throat. On top of that if these are just meant to be neat little Easter Egg weapons, then they sure made these weapons hard to obtain, given you have to do Monster Battles on specific days to obtain a rusted weapon that may become one of the 4 weapons. In SoV, they were just weapons you can forge, so why make them so difficult to obtain if they are meant to be Easter Eggs when you already had an easier way to get them in a previous game?
I think there is more to these 4 weapons being in Fodlan than just being a nice Easter Egg.
A theory I have regarding the scene with Dimitri is that he was alive at the current moment when he was speaking to Byleth, but that he chose to end his life shortly thereafter. That being what his descion he referred to was. It would certainly be in character for Dimitri who we see has absolutely no sense of self respect or preservation and feels immense survivors guilt both from gronder and duscur. He also expresses some suicidal thoughts in his supports with Marianne and Gilbert
He's probably dead, but if he is alive I think there's ample room to interpret the conversation this way.
I think Dimitri probably passed away as well in the SS and I like your explanation for it and Sothis's paralogue opening along with the fainting makes a lot of sense too!
But Byleth and Sothis' reincarnation thing kind of confuses me since Rhea calls her a vessel and TWSITD say she's Sothis as well. So, what is it exactly? If I can get an answer that'll be awesome! Thank you!
I always believed that Dimitri took his own life in Silver Snow after surviving the battle at Gronder. Rodrigue may have still sacrificed himself for Dimitri but he did not have anyone to guide him without Byleth so he took his life to atone for his sins. And after his death, his spirit approached Byleth to ask them for guidance. This could also explain his “decision.” That’s just my interpretation though and I don’t have much to go off of.
Dimitri is clearly dead in SS. As someone who witnessed so many tragedies/deaths and unable to obtain revenge, it left his soul restless. It’s sad. I get the scene with him and Byleth but I would have liked if they added another for closure after Edelgard’s defeat. Like Byleth hearing him say “thank you” only to go search for the voice and no one is there. Something, anything. It could've still been vague enough to keep players wondering.
One thing i always have fun with, is try to imagine how a character like Byleth would fare if they were just picked up and dropped into other Fire Emblem games!
What if we assumed they kept their growths and prowes with a sword and Faith magic (since it's a hidden talent), how would they hold up if they replaced the main lords of every game? Would Hector Hard Mode be much harder or easier if you played Byleth instead? How would Hector do as a Byleth replacement in Three Houses? How would Chrom do if he replaced Marth, and the other way around? How would Lyn do in Marths stories?
And since the Enlightened One is the obvious choice as a promotion class for Byleth, since they don't have a set promotion, we can assume they would get it at the point each lord would also promote...
I would love to see this play out in an LP, but just thinking it over is fun enough too!
I’m not the only one who thinks that entire Dimtiri scene doesn’t make any initial sense, all because Byleth was standing and there was no animation of them getting up. Made me form a silly head canon Byleth drowned his sorrows and clearly hallucinating. But no, Three Houses only got one heavy drinker, and Byleth isn’t taking after their dad
Another point i wanna bring. Edelgard is ignoring the situation in Enbarr. Ferdinands and Lysitheas paralogue reveals it was in better hands with his dad than her uncle, yet she doesn't explain her reasoning for having her uncle take over once
I personally think Dimitri did die, and his ghost visited Byleth because ghosts do exist in FE as a whole.
Also, a little late from the last video, but I have a specific theory about Pan. I personally think that while he at first was a loyal Agarthan officer, Loog eventually grew on him and he ultimately betrayed them, negotiating the conversion of Faerghus with Rhea and sealing away the Crest Stones in Castle Fhirdiad.
I'd play a game exploring the relationship of Pan and Loog and how it affected Fodlan as a whole.
About Byleth's heartbeat. We'd heard hints before in the game even at this point of Byleth not having a pulse. We also know that Byleth generally has a cold personality but becomes more caring as the game goes on. Becuase it happens while talking about Remire Village's tragedy I always thought it was symbolic for an emotional awakening for Byleth. Which is why a heartbeat would be used since the heart is usually meant to represent emotion/love/compassion. Maybe this breakthrough DID cause Byleth's heart to beat for just a moment but it was overwhelming as the first time feeling that sensation.
I always thought Byleth fainting was because Sothis was getting stronger inside them and the body was reacting.
In my eyes, it is perfectly reasonable to assume that Byleth "sleeping" was meant as them daydreaming and slowly dozing off(That is not sleepwalking, because it's just standing there the entire time). This furthers the mystery on if Dimitri was actually there because it's somewhat of a trope that interacting with spirits causes people to space out. So it is unclear if this was Byleth just being stressed out over everything going on and dreaming it up or if Dimitri really is making contract because he's unsure how to proceed.
Bigger question that will never be answered would be...if this actually was him, where did he go after Byleth "woke up"? Doesn't seem to me like he would be ready to go to the equivalent of "the other side". Maybe one could use the fanfic-muscles a bit here and say that he left his lost life behind and went off to do other things. Since who knows, the undead are already a thing in the FE-multiverse, a ghost going around doesn't seem like the biggest stretch.
Dedue fakes his death to save Dimitri. It’s no doubt that Dedue would fake his life (take on Dimitri’s old scarred mentality) to give Dimitri an out.
I find it more likely that Dimitri survived and escaped. It gives him 4 endings.
Live as the hero, the savior king.
Die as a noble hero fighting against Edelgard’s most deadly onslaught (though failing) (crimson flower)
Die as a monster, put to death by his unwillingness to wake up. (Verdant winds)
And for SS, he lives on though his legacy is that if a monster or a beast put down in Gronder.
I personally think that dimitri is very much alive, and I think that the two dialogue choices represent him trying to live on and cut his own path: (you survived for a reason) and him killing himself for atonement: (you can still atone for your sins) I have a feeling that there will be no silver snow equivalent in three hopes, but that this question will pop up again somehow. And it will be more explained. I think that the Idea of him surviving for a reason will lead to a version of him striving for a purpose. And as silver snow is the first route, and dimitri is the main character, I think that the game is meant to imply that you are either devoted to dimitri, the goddess, claude, or edelgard. But showing how byleth is kind to all, even though they are monsters, who he hardly knew, just shows how much byleth actually cares.
I think he's dead, and the fact that he appears as a ghost honestly makes you think if the ghosts of his father and family such might actually BE haunting him
About the Sealed Forest… What is up with the crest of flames embedded on the wall? It is a different texture than the wall and feels more like it was excavated rather than carved…
Isn't the area with the Chalice of Beginnings just a valley under the bridge connecting the cathedral to the rest of Garreg Mach?
I always assumed Byleth fainted because Solon was doing his experiments with Flayn's blood at that moment in time.
I always kinda thought that Byleth fainted because he/she and Sothis are struggling with keeping it up this way, like they need to fuse soon.
I have the idea that dimitri is neither dead or alive. He is in the crossroads and during this time he is desperately trying to figure out what to do. He comes to the one person that he feels that can help him as he knows byleth is one of the few that can help him. He knows it is too late for him to retake what is now gone but perhaps simply wants someone to hear him before going on to what he wants. Either to die or live. Pretty much wants himself to be heard.
8:53 someone wrote Byleth in the death note
I think all the crest bearer are the the champion of the ancient greek pantheon and Byleth is the reincarnation of Cronos who are also bond to the goddess Gaya (Sothis). For exemple Lysithéa have the crest of Charon the nod of the underworld , Claude hve the crest of Nyx (Goddess of night), Ingrid have the crest of Prometheus the titan who stolen the holy fire from olympus, Linhartd have the crest of Hypnos the god of sleep... etc
I am a simple man, I see a video discussing theories about Fire Emblem mysteries I click.
In plot i think it would have ben awesome to have a bitter noble house control of the great myrdin bridge. Being a important place of 3 different war's.
Or better. The bridge being constructed un the top of one of Rhea cousin's.
I remember the heart beat before Byleth faints
I just think that his soul was unrest unlike in other routes so he came back to seek his teacher within his death
Yeah, Dimitri's scene in Silver Snow is really weird overall and you could make the case its there to give him some closure since he's not really an important player in the plot.
Now, if they also had done the same to Claude that would've been awesome, because the dude just straight out vanishes after Gronder 2 and it's left in the air - even in-universe, his body was never found - if he actually died or not.
I'd always assumed Claude just abandoned ship and went back to Almyra off screen in SS. But he could be dead: it simply wasn't confirmed like it was with Dimitri. Seteth claims from the scout that Dimitri was confirmed dead, while Claude was only missing in action.
I always thought that Claude got wounded or upon seeing the carnage of the battle left after he believed that the other armies thought he was dead to Almyra.
As much as I love this game, some of these one-off random story beats are really poorly implemented. Like you said, the whole Dimitri thing in SS felt shoehorned in and is never properly resolved, same with the fainting. It’s as if they wanted to do something with them, but ultimately either cut everything else out or never got around to finishing them. Which is a bummer, because I would have loved to see Dimitri’s character expanded upon in SS, especially if he somehow was alive. Hey, I’m just saying, he was presumed dead by everyone in AM before being revealed as alive.
For me, Byleth just dreamt of Dimitri and was not visited. Byleth had just learned his death and they might have regrets about it and dreamt about a Dimitri asking for help in a sort of hope of what might be
This game really does have a hard time with idle animations and it hurts

(8:54) Perhaps this is a side effect of using Divine Pulse too many times?
I never noticed that sound effect update. Weird.
Dimitris ghost is just to add foils between Byleth, Rhea and Dimitri. The archbishop of Fodlan can talk to ghosts. Well Dimitri thinks he can but can’t. Byleth and Rhea can both talk to sothis a dead person for one.
Also probably game design wise was either a replacement when Grondors was cut from Silver Snow. Grondors was cut from Snow since the next chapter has the same level jump as in Wind despite losing a month.
Seeing Dimitri's ghost is a Monumental failure.
Gronder isn't cut from SS. It doesn't fit there at all. Gronder is about the Empire vs the Kingdom vs the Alliance. SS is the church with remnants of Black Eagles. Therefore it has no place at Gronder because it's not the Empire, but a fragment of Black Eagles plus church units.
@@l.n.3372 You ignored everything I said. We knew for a fact silver snow was made before Verdant wind. The level gaps between the chapters are the same. Vs fort morteus in both Snow and wind. Also saying the church has no reason to be there doesn’t make any sense. As they go there in every other route with fragments of either the Kingdom or Alliance. The reason they don’t go in snows final draft is because it happened the same month the church fought the Alliance and Empire under Claudes manipulation.
@@manga925
You ignored everything I said. I'm aware SS was created first, therefore Gronder was never cut because they simply hadn't created the map yet. Duh.
Also, the church is a secondary ally on AM and VW, that's why the church can attend the Gronder map. But Gronder itself is a 3 way battle between Edelgard, Dimitri and Claude. On SS, you don't HAVE Edelgard, Dimitri or Claude. So why on earth would the church participate in this battle that doesn't matter to them anymore?
@@l.n.3372 Theres zero evidence the the map hadn’t already been made and everything suggests it was. So what you are arguing is the game devs after finishing vw went back to snow for some reason and wasted resources raising the levels on the last five maps read man read. Its not very hard.
Sure my guy thats why Byleth is in the cutscene and the church is the main faction of the game. The church totally would not benefit in anyway from killing Edelgard and ending the war and get closer to saving Rhea. Its not like there goal in the time skip or anything lmao.
My only wild theory is there being no gender locks on classes, and my absolute only evidence is that one generic who replaces Hilda as a War Master instead.
But in a more serious note, I would've liked to see more about Monica in Three Houses, like students recognizing her face but not her personality with each passing week. Similar to the reactions Claude and Dimitri have when they find out about Thomas, Arundel and such as the story goes on.
I'm pretty sure the devs confirmed in an interview that Dimitri was dead and that Claude lived.
No one talks about how Linhardt's hair is literally green, greener than original Byleth's design and his sleepiness being due to his dragon blood.
I don't ever remember seeing dedue in enbarr
0:30 blursed image
I have a theory that the preternatural tiredness and fainting of Sothis and Byleth is Rhea's plan of the two merging or one overwriting the other taking some shape. And that just the presence at important places in Sothis old life somewhat trigger this whole process.
My take on the first theory is that the writers of FE3H just like making me cry.
I've thought that Dimitri was dead yet when i rethink it, did you ever see Dimitri in SS, if you didn't, it would be odd as you would not know what Dimitri looks like meaning he was there. It's been a while since I've played SS so you might see him in the story but I don't know.
I don’t think dimitri is dead if you play his route I do believe that he survive the battle and escape he did say dedue died and may help him leave the battle
"is this dead person dead?"
Demitri is my favourite character in this game.
Commenting for the algorithm
Silver snow has all kinds of weird subtle things. My favorite is when Seteth, post time skip, is unperturbed by Byleth being asleep for 5 years and seems to imply it's something natural, but after that it's never addressed.
Flayn slept for centuries, to recover after the battle. So it makes sense that Seteth would understand.
@@l.n.3372 it would, but no one reacts to his comment, which is strange.

Another relic related thing along the same lines, why doesn't Jeritza have the Rafail Gem in Crimson Flower? He has it in all other routes and gives it to Mercedes, but for some reason doesn't in the one route where he is playable, making it unobtainable for some reason. Mercedes does once again have it as an enemy in Tailtean plains if she was not recruited, implying that Jeritza met her at some point during the timeskip (which is very possible) or she obtained it another way before Jeritza (not impossible) but still it is weird how it just up and disappears otherwise, when by all logic one of them should have it.
Why is it unusual that Annette doesn't get crusher until time skip? Claude and Dimitri also don't get their relics until time skip lol. It's not that strange to get some pre time skip and others post time skip. Also, Marianne only gets her relic post time skip too, as does Mercedes.
