Could it be that the Sacred Stones do not all have the same "abilities"? I mean, if Rausten´s stone is able to imprison the DK in the end of the game alone, why did they need the other ones? Doesn't make too much sense, does it?

So, what if RS (Rausten´s stone) is the only one who can seal? GS (Grado´s stone) maybe enhances the carrier´s strength? FS maybe enhances the carrier´s wisdom? What if they all were used for different things and customized for the carrier?

(If that makes you think of Magical Girl series and costumized ~stones~ that transform the carriers, then your mind is in the same places as mine. And no, my mind has not yet decided if there are versions for boys and girls or only for girls. .... My mind is a very funny place at the moment.)

Also, since I just started to play SS yet again... I once again noticed that both Fado and Hayden kinda look annoyed in-game while Vigarde seems to smile. Uh-oh, the ebil is on his face.

Also, I am not wondering what should happen if Eirika hadn't come in time and saved Tana and how Grado might try to use Tana to blackmail Hayden. I am not sure yet if he would sacrifice her or not. Maybe he would. No, I am not having fun with this, what are you talking about? >8D

Edit:

Castle Renais:

I didn't notice before that we have a pic of it... It looks so much like a Schloss rather than a Burg. 16th or 17th century. Oh, and pretty. Reminds me of the Heidelberg Castle ;u;

Edit2: Something is strange about Selena´s in-game portrait. Something looks... off. Either the eyes or the form of her face. I'm not sure...

Edit3:

Funny occurence of the day: Ephraim tries to kill mage. Mage almost kills Ephraim. Kyle tries to kill mage. Mage instead almost kills Kyle. Half dead Forde tries to kill mage. Mage finally dies.

Guys. You are truly AWESOME fighters. I'm so impressed by you guys.

I believe it's more that having more stones makes it easier to seal the DK and keep him controlled, myself, and then their existence seals the body from reviving - which is why he was so adamant about smashing them. With the blood sacrifice and all, plus only one stone being around, the body was able to live again.

I don't think the totally different abilities for each stone quite works -- Ephraim and Eirika intended to use Renais' stone for the exact same means, and after all, Grado's stone was the initial one used for the sealing. Maybe slightly different properties, but they can all do the sealing, it seems.

Like some power boost, mhm. (Which makes it a bit more boring. oh man, no magical girls/boys for me today XD)

Personal opinion unsupported by the text: the stones are the five sacred spheres of Archanea-- Lightsphere (Rausten), Starsphere (prolly Frelia), Lifesphere (maybe Jehanna), Geosphere (Renais, IMO), and Darksphere (Grado).

The super-powerful Darksphere was used as the prison the first time around, but that didn't work so well in the end. Maybe while Latona (with the "Light Stone") was fighting off possession, Grado got his Dark Stone ready for action and was able to intercept the spirit as it departed Latona. But the "Fire Emblem" reverted to form as a soul-destroying Macguffin in the end. Rausten's Light Stone will be a much better prison for the DK.

Yes, definitely. Then again, Altea Castle in FE12 kinda evokes Neuschwanstein. @_@

It already sounds like a bad idea to capture a dark creature in a Darksphere. Fffffffff XD

I hate the look of Neuschwanstein so much. It's so fugly. /is also a snob because she likes her castles older

[mark-asphodel.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but the Darksphere is really powerful and makes the user abnormally powerful until the soul-rot kicks in. I can see someone interested in Getting the Job Done without delay deciding that was the tool to use, and not the silly sparkly Starsphere.

[crimsonmorgan.livejournal.com]

Wait, and L'Arachel did not get the Sparkly Starsphere? She'll be disappointed. :D

Oh man, that sounds so potentionally... delicious. Ya know, if the Grado stone would work like that, did it already start to nom on Lyon´s soul as well? Did it nibble at all Grado emperors like some family curse? The possibilities are endless >8D
