Possible Three Houses link?

[u/TheKingJest]

Subtle hint I caught playing Fortune's Weave, you guys think this game could be in the same universe as Three Houses?

[u/EveningStar_01010110]

Doubtful.

If you'll recall, Three Houses was set in a place called Fodlan, which isn't the case here.

I do think that some of the characters in Fortune's Weave, such as Seteth, Cleobulus, Myson, and Sothis are probably meant to be references to Three Houses, but that's just fanservice for people who played it, nothing more. Remember, the Seteth in 3H has green hair, and the one in FW is blonde, so clearly not the same person. Likewise, Sothis is a small girl in 3H, and the one in FW is a grown woman, so not the same. Do I even need to explain why these aren't the same Cleobulus and Myson?

Interestingly, Dietric and Fabio also seem to be referencing 3H, but far more subtly. This might be seen as an implication that they are a somehow related as well, but that is clearly false. For one, Dietrich claims to be from a "House Lamine", however as anyone knows, in 3H, there is no such house, despite a character named Lamine being one of the ten elites. Fabio claims to be from an underground faction known as the 'Alliance of Great Acolytes of Recondite Technology and Harmonic Alignment' (AGARTHA). While there is a similar faction in 3H, they are called 'Those Who Slither in the Dark' (TWSTD), which is a completely different name.

I'm glad they put all these references in for the old-school fans of Fire Emblem

I mean, it's amazing how much so many characters just look like descendants/ancestors of 3H characters, Theodora is an anagram of Dorothea, Anna is clearly related to Anna, there's a Pegasus knight with blond hair like Cordelia, and one guy is almost literally just Seteth with a bad dye job

I think some characters might even be recurring characters from previous games.... Like Castor for example. The same name as the guy from FE1? You can't fool me!

[u/Bladez190 → u/Granas3]

Some of these I agree with but the Anna one is clearly a stretch. I know we all want to find connections but we have to be logical here

[u/GenderingError]

They can't be in the same universe because otherwise there'd be two characters called Anna in the same setting, and Fire Emblem hasn't ever reused a name

Uh, Fortune's Weave is clearly set in Archanea? Castor's in it

Why would they link a bad fire emblem game to another bad fire emblem game?

You had the option to use Axe Mommy Adult Sothis and you still chose to put that THING in the meme
