FE3H: Loop 4 (CF) Chapter 12 -- Outset of a Power Struggle
0Part 2 hasn't officially started yet, but this is clearly the first meaningfully different battle of the route. The other three paths have you defending Garreg Mach from invading Imperial forces. This time, we're the invading Imperial forces trying to lay claim Garreg Mach. That would've made us the baddies, but... is it really so simple?
Anyway, because of our decision, Flayn has left our ranks, and Seteth, Catherine, and Cyril are lost to us forever. So it goes!
Our goal is to take out Rhea, but the Knights of Seiros won't give up so easily. We'll have to take out Gilbert, Flayn, and Seteth before we can move past the town, and we can expect some reinforcements along the way.
Luckily for me, I'm overleveled, so I can just bulldoze my way through with just a few units. Also luckily for me, I'm still playing on Casual mode, so making the kind of tactical mistake that gets Edelgard owned isn't a big deal. What is a big deal is Rhea taking the battlefield and being the boss.
Unlike the other routes, there's no special cinematic for the end of the battle. Rhea transforms again, everyone yells at Baeleth to watch out, there's a bright flash, and... that's it. Then, the narrator gives us the aftermath: Edelgard won, though with heavy losses, and Rhea and the Knights of Seiros retreated to Faerghus. Meanwhile, Claude is keeping the Alliance neutral by making them focus on more domestic matters, which is kind of a funny inversion of the usual.
And with that, Part 1 has come to a close, and the unification of Fódlan has begun.
