I do love the line ‘fodlan will bow to their god shattering star’ just because for a moment it feels like nemesis is trying to be god but instead ends up being the god killer.

[@memerarts4914]

I haven’t played this game before, so I don’t know the context of these lines, but “All will bow before the king of liberation. And all will cower who cannot accept salvation. None can stand before the sword of the creator. And those who struggle will be nothing more than stains. On the blade.” definitely feels like lines from a religious maniac rather than the killer of god. It’s amazing that without even knowing the series, you can tell that this is a man who has fallen to hubris from his great achievement just from the song.

[@Castersvarog]

@@memerarts4914 you’re not super fall off either but it’s less of a fall of a religious maniac and more of an arrogant . Nemesis (the god slayer in this context) in universe is treated as this hero and servant of the goddess alongside the ten elites, to fight against wicked gods, but fell to corruption by the power given to him and was killed by Seiros according to the church. SPOILERS In truth, however he was nothing more then a bandit leader who was tempted by ‘Those who slither in the dark’, an ancient enemy of Fodlan, to steal Sothis’ bones and heart as weapons of destructions against Seiros and the people of fodlan. What’s left of him in this song is a walking corpse revived by Agartha/TWSITD

[@WhatIsThatThingDoing]

The bone refers to the 4 weapons made of Sothis' (Pretty much the deity of Fodlan) bones. The sword of the creator is the most well known, which is the one that can extend into a whip as shown. That bow also happens to be one.

[@Castersvarog]

@@WhatIsThatThingDoing not just 4, but all but one of the bone weapons from the many noble houses are from Sothis’ remains. The bow and the Sword of the creator are just one of them.

[@Aeonsteel]

@@Castersvarog I thought they were made from the Nabataean's bones, while the SotC was the only one from Sothis (because of the Crests) Especially considering that there are many Crest Stones (the things that let them work, even at a lower power without the crest they are associated with) because those are literally the Nabataean's *hearts*.

"None can defeat me! for I wield the Sword of the Creator!" he says while his opponent also wields the Sword of the Creator, but theirs is the original while Nemisis only wields a replica.

[@alicebrey]

@@rustkarl Well, in the lore, the bones that the Lance of Ruin and other Heroes' relics are made of don't decay. It explains why they've been used so many times before and haven't completely broken. The bones are (technically) alive.

[@rustkarl]

@@alicebrey Hard to say. The material used to repair them is Umbral Steel which can be gathered from wild Demonic Beasts. Assuming that most Demonic Beasts aren’t of the same quality as the Nabateans it’s possible that the material used to make them is a composite material of Umbral Steel and their bones. There’s also the fact that it’s notoriously hard to keep a Nabatean dead. Sothis was ‘dead’ but still sticks around in her Crest Stone, even after pulling that Fusion Dance with Byleth. So I think that the remains of life and sentience within the Crest Stones embedded into the Relics are the shreds of sentience still lingering from their owners, not really sentient or aware but ever so slightly alive enough to react.

[@GeorgeKinsill]

It took me until now to realize it, but at the end of the route, Byleth lives up to her father's reputation and becomes the most famous blade breaker.

[@isauldron4337]

His dad must be proud

[@gabrielrussell5531]

Context for those who haven't played: The bearded fellow is named Nemesis. He killed god while god was in a coma from repairing the world from a nuclear war. Drinking god's blood gave him superpowers, and he had a really cool sword made out of god's bones. He then massacred most of god's children so his buddies could drink their blood to get superpowers and have superweapons made out of their bones. Jesus led some of her remaining dragon siblings and some sympathetic humans against Nemesis. After killing him Jesus' top human follower became the head of a major nation while Jesus founded a church that she keeps running through the generations as pope by pretending to be someone else. That was all 1,000 years ago, and in one route evil mole-people bring Nemesis and his followers back for the final battle.

[@matthewsnyder2475]

I love how you refuse to call Seirose by name and just kept referring to her Jesus. Lol

[@arridueldes5638]

Prtty much perfectly accurate, but if anyone is Jesus I would consider it Byleth. Serios and her siblings are more like Michael, Gabriel, etc. lesser divine beings made by god as opposed to the physical manifestation of god that Byleth became after more or less cutting their way back from being banished to hell/the void

[@arridueldes5638]

@@gabrielrussell5531 Exactly, if we are going with the matching them up to Christianity Byleth and Sothis together can be seen as representing the Holy Trinity Sothis in life was The Father, Mother in this case I suppose, the active force of Creation Sothis as a higher being without physical form would be the Holy Spirit- the divine that while lacking form still has power and is credited with the revival of Jesus...much like Sothis' power through the divine pulse can resurrect fallen allies and this version of her enables Byleth to return from his magical banishmeent Byleth is The Son(or Daughter depending on character customization), aka Jesus, the physical part of god that lived among humans as one of them before the revelation of his divine nature who would eventually redeem humanity, in Byleth's case by ending the old order and creating a new age for Fodlan alongside whichever house leader you choose to side with.

I really love this, because it shows the two things that we can infer about Nemesis. One, that he desires revenge at his core. And also that HE BELIEVES HE IS RIGHT. He was a puppet king, little more than a bandit given status.

I really love the line “Fódlan’s forever marked”, because it has a double meaning. Not only does it refer to Fódlan itself, being marked by all the war and stuff, but it also refers to the 10 (11) elites and himself, who forever had crests (marks)

[@hello_i_exist9909]

That was freaking amazing! This did not disappoint. (Though I was hoping for a line or two from Claude or Byleth...)

[@Notmonki]

I agree

[@fissionangel]

I can't help but feel the imports of this boss fight is like describe what he is and what he wants. Awesome

Well now it have one.

Listened to this while playing Cult Of The Lamb and it is wonderfully fitting

[@Breidablik06]

There is so much amazing potential for more FE songs you could do. From the absolute masterpieces of music from Echoes such March to Deliverance or Twilight of the Gods, or songs from the older games who have yet to see modern recreations like in Genealogy of the Holy War and it’s music

[@elijahbryant8654]

This final battle theme definitely made an incredible impression on me, and hearing lyrics added to it just makes it even better

[@amandagreene4990]

"So ends the hopes of Seiros!" Somehow that line is so perfect. 😅

Great song, loved 3 houses and this is probably my fav boss out of all the storylines, just for the music, lol

[@elektrokatze1348]

YES!!!! Gosh I can't say how happy I am. God shattering star was always one of my favorite songs of all time and now Moti gave us a really great version with lyrics. Great work as always. respect

[@LeoLoga]

This song is my favorite song from Three Houses, This is the song that strikes you with the will to fight back, You will fight for Fódlan, stop the King of Liberation, And show him the Might of the Golden Deer!

[@charlotteshenkenberger345]

Yes, Nemesis will learn to FEAR THE DEER!

[@rustkarl]

And stamp out the remnants of the Siltherers personally, not relegate it to an epilogue monologue. *ahem Crimson Flower*

[@ranger24ff]

This was awesome. Admittedly these aren't the in game lyrics but this is still epic. Admittedly I never did get why the Golden Deer are the ones who get to fight Nemesis.

[@TheGreatPikminZX789]

In all fairness, the other routes do have something else overtaking their main role, and thus, not everyone may be able to have time to build up Nemesis. Crimson Flower has the whole Edelgard vs Rhea Blue Lions pretty much has the whole relationship status between Dmitri and Edelgard and how they view each other in the age of war El set up. I'd possibly argue there might have been a possible chance for the Church route to include Nemesis, but after that gauntlet of a final boss fight? Probably would've been a bit too much for one route, even after the Church Route goes through Shambala, then possibly fighting Nemesis before the final boss of that route. And given part of the Golden Deer's early game was somewhat going through Fodlan's history, Nemesis likely made for a much fitting final boss, not just for Golden Deer, but perhaps for Rhea as well. Though those are my two cents and I can't recall every little detail since it's been ages since I played this game, so I might be off on the overall theming for the routes here.

[@ranger24ff]

@@TheGreatPikminZX789 I can sort of see that for the deer but it feels very feeble and it does just raise more questions due to the messy relationship between Silver Snow and Verdant Wind (and the sheer amount of "this is totally the final mission we swear this time" fatigue). I suspect if Verdant Wind had more time and energy devoted during development it would feel a lot less jarring.

[@GrandAngel]

I've been waiting for another English adaptation for so long. I feel very motivated now!

[@gazelle_diamond9768]

Holy crap, this certainly isn't what I expected here, but I'm really happy to see it.

[@brendenseitz3347]

I’ve never played any of the Fire Emblem series, but now that I’ve heard this track, I want to go out now and buy the game!

[@John-Stark]

You know, the fact that the god Nemesis killed was asleep because of fixing the World from Nuclear Annihilation, and well, I found this song because a KZbinr know as Rubix Raptor used the og song when he nuked an elderich god in the core of Europa in Barotrama, Point is, seems like Gods are weak to Nukes...

[@cookiealchemie1756]

I love nemesis as a villain because in any other context he'd be your quintessential fire emblem lord. But like he's fucked up and evil about it. Iconic, honestly

[@chancewrightva]

It's awesome to see a Three Houses song here!

[@SierraGustafson]

Now, we have *two* Three Houses songs since this guy also did Apex.

For Agartha! Let the people of Shambala rise! For all Agarthans, let there be light! Seeing some parallels there.

I'm SO glad I picked Claude's house first BEFORE Dimitri's house via NG+! Also, FEAR THE F#$_&#ING DEER! Also, could this be hinting at a Three Houses musical sometime?

Amazing job, guys! Stunning vocals to an already great song. It'd be great to hear more FE3H songs from you! A full version of Apex of the World, Fodlan Winds, Blue Skies and a Battle and Funeral of Flowers would be some amazing songs. Just a request, mind.

[@SierraGustafson]

I can already imagine the lyrics to "Between Heaven and Earth" as part of the Three Houses musical if they were to make one after their CT one. 😊

[@rude.basily]

This song always hit hard for me, but knowing the english lyrics just layers that on extra thick. Nemesis isn't just another bad guy. HE is the biggest threat to Fodlan. Screw Edelgard. She looks like your kindergarten bully who stole your red crayon compared to this guy. And the game does an amazing job of portraying that, through characters, through the mission, and especially through the music. Also managed to get my friend on the fire emblem train with this so WOOP WOOP
