Nintendo and Intelligent Systems surprised fans by revealing Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave , a title that returns to the Three Houses offs and a vast mythology to explore.
The trailer already hinted at intriguing clues: coats of arms, demonic beasts, and a figure called the Divine Sovereign , who resembles a Nabatean—an ancient civilization capable of transforming into dragons. The question is whether the story will be a prequel, a sequel, or even a parallel story, as seen in Engage.
The past may be the key
Among the highlights are the Heroic Games of Dagsion . The name refers to Dagda , the homeland of characters like Shamir. While in Three Houses we were restricted to Fódlan, other territories like Brigid and Almyra remain largely unexplored. Thus, Fortune's Weave could expand the world without losing the established ties.
Another clue is the presence of Dietrich , who wields a sword with a Crest Stone. These relics were created from the bones and hearts of the Nabateans, used by human warriors in the War of Heroes , led by Nemesis against Seiros. This raises the possibility that the new game takes place before the fall of Sothis.
The presence of Sothis
At the end of the trailer, Sothis emerges as an adult and conscious , in contrast to her childlike form in Three Houses. This detail reinforces the possibility that the narrative explores the events preceding her long slumber, when the Agarthans broke with the Nabateans and began the war.
Prelude or sequel?
Despite theories about a sequel, the variety of routes in Three Houses makes a post-game narrative difficult. Therefore, setting Fortune's Weave in the past is a more coherent alternative, allowing for deeper storytelling without compromising on different endings.
Ultimately, everything indicates that the title will reveal the origins of the conflicts that shaped Fódlan. As always in Fire Emblem, the big question is: whose side will we be on?
