Fire Emblem Three Houses- The Blood Of Our Chosen Paths (Comic Dub) 

I can see both choosing both Claude route and Rhea route ngl

Agreed

Genshin style

Claude is chilling with Gendern't Byleth

I read it, it's worse. Spoiler . . . . . Both the siblings die.

The devs just didn't want 3 houses to be another fates

That's the beauty of Three Houses character writing. The whole situation could have gone a lot smoother if the leaders of the four factions just got together and talked it out, but they're all too screwed up to ever consider something like that. Edelgard is too suspicious. Dimitri too unstable. Claude purposefully makes himself seem untrustworthy. And Rhea is blinded by grief and rage.

Yes, that how politics and class struggle work. If only they though about asking the nobles and the church to not oppress people, maybe hey would have said yes, disband there armies and abandon their privilege.

@@libreqc That has absolutely nothing to do with the story.

I prefer those bittersweet endings. It's a story about war, everyone lose something

"was a delusion from her thinking the empire should rule over everyone" Edelgard doesn't care about the empire ruling everything, she doesn't even care about the empire at all. She hates the Empire as a structure. She conquers everything because 1) the war with the Church is inevitable to get rid of the crests and the Theocracy in general, 2) The Kingdom will always decide to fight with the Church because the Church is how they legitimise their existence and 3) The Alliance will generally choose to fight somewhat on the side of the Kingdom because they fear being absorbed afterwards. Three Hopes has shown that if Edelgard and Claude could end up in a situation where they are forced to reluctantly trust each other and actually communicate their goals to each other, they are in fact natural allies and only the Kingdom has to be conquered (and then again only because it chooses to defend the Church). In fact Claude and Edelgard are perfect allies because they cover each other's blind spots. Even in three houses, if you spare Claude in CF, he is hopeful that his goal might still be achieved with Edelgard at the head of the continent. But he only "trust" her there because he has no choice, sadly there is no opportunity for them to trust each other in time to avoid war in that path, which makes sense, both Claude and Edelgard are plotters, they see the worst part of themselves in each other.
