Looking Through The Cichol: A Fire Emblem Character Analysis On Seteth 

Seriously Seteth is an incredibly interesting character in a cast of good characters.

The reason why flayn almost dies was the battle of the nabateans, the one that is seen at the beginning of the game, in this battle at some moment seteth got separated from flayn and her mother for some reason, and when he was able to find them seteths wife was dead and flayn was heavily injured

He and Dimitri are my two favorites from this game!

I love Seteth, he is so awesome and in many ways, a counterargument to Hubert's dehumanizing belief that the Nabateans cannot understand Humanity, but is also more Human than Hubert, Edelgard and the Agarthans. 1. Rhea IS sane in every route other than CF, she just wants what is best for Fódlan and succeeded for a long time. Her quest to revive her mothers broke some moral boundaries but is not really the most awful thing ever. Also, the devs revealed that the Quest for Sothis's return is fueled by more than just a selfish desire to see her mother again, it's also fueled by the quest to return the Goddess to the world again as she sees her as the Creator. It's evident by the fact, that Sothis is a powerful and wise Goddess, who could return the world back to an age of prosperity. However yeah the quest was very questionable on multiple accounts, but more morally tolerable than the Demonic beast research and Lehran's covenant with Ashera( have you ever played the other FE games?). 2. He really was wise for his age as he tells us a lot of good advices and seems more reasonable in regards of people than Rhea's dangerous trust in Byleth. He understands that just because everyone has a common cause of belief in the same faith, they are not going to agree on everything and that lesson is one of the most important Felix had to learn, in order to understand Dimitri, who is suffering from the tragedy of Duscur. 3. In the paralogue with Claude's quest to discover a ruin, where the saint Macuil has gone, he also tried as you said to reason with his brother, but it fails because he was disgusted by the Humans. That begs the question, why did he entered the war and crafted powerful weapons for the Humans, if he despises them so? Was he only in there because he wanted revenge or did he something to the other humans that forced him to go on exile? Also fun fact Cichol's name comes from Celtic mythology and is the name of one of the Fomorians, their equivalent of the giants in Norse mythology whereas Mac'cuil is the name of a pantheon of gods opposing them. Do you not find it weird how they abuse the etymology of names without any consideration of the meanings behind them, Agartha and Shambhala make sense since they had been abused by New agers for their Aryan supremacy fantasizes. 4. I like him also for the fact, that he shows how good religion can be and that not all people of faith are irrational morons and hate everything because quite frankly, this trope allowed to create a false history of religious supremacy over science., even though I find it weird that Yuri believes in the flat Earth as I heard, but that might not be true. Can somebody please explain to me, where he said that? Also to the JoJoke, I actually did see myself this time supporting Dio, since I would not let a skirt-chaser like Sylvain come near her.

That is a great bloody pun in the title

Seteth is the best romance for Byleth too, because she won’t outlive him. Also “Courage, my love!”

at first i was like “ok he’s obviously rhea’s evil sidekick” but then i realized that actually he was totally justified in being concerned about rhea immediately hiring some lady who cuts holes in her sleeves to take care of a class of teenagers

I started loving him the moment Flayn first embarrassed him to Byleth, after he made his "patrolling a coffin" joke. I thought he was gonna be anime Snape, but he's clearly anime McGonagall. Very strict and by the book, but kind and caring. Seteth represents everything good about the Church of Seiros: Guidance, empathy and sagely calmth. On the other hand, his fate in Crimson Flower is heartbreaking. Either he and his daughter witness the other die, or they become refugees in a world that has learned to hate them. I was glad to see him back on the team in Three Hopes, and he became a surprisingly amazing Holy Knight.

He's a beastly unit. I only checked four stats of his, but if you get him to Wyvern Lord as soon as you get him, he will, on average, have: 82 health, 55 strength, 47 speed, and 38 defense at level 60 (if this is below his max stats of course lol). For reference, he will have more health, strength, and speed than Dimitri will on average at level 60. He will also have more average defense than Edelgard (barely lmao). This all comes at the avoidable arrow weakness.

Seteth is my 1st husbando and will always be husbando to me.

I just realised cichol is pronounced like keyhole. My god. Also I married Seteth in my first playthrough of silver snow and I have no regrets, he's such a sweetheart in his supports.

I love character analysis!

I love him and Manuela

While the video seems interesting, the music is way too loud in comparison with your voice, making it hard to follow your speech. Continue like that

Title’s a straight bar ngl

Really well done analysis of one of my favorite characters in the game. I'm sure you've done Sylvain by this point, but I find him to be an interesting flawed character.

I just found your channel and love your videos! I would love an analysis on Ferdinand von aegir if your up to it. Ferdie is the character that most surprised me when I played, so I'd love to hear your thoughts on him.

These videos are both funny and interesting. Good job my guy.

Ah, the principal Feeney of Three Houses

Yuri next?

I honestly think they could have had Seteth and Flayn be playable on Crimson Flower. It could have easily been done as an option after them seeking how unhinged Rhea has become and that going with Edelgard will protect Flayn better. And Edelgard could also be further shown in a sympathetic light by letting them join and saying "I never wanted to be your enemy." It would only have taken a few lines and it is implied that Seteth didn't know the whole story of what Rhea did because he only started working for her recently. Rhea's hands certainly weren't clean either even before the war.

Seteth was the one character I did not expect to have that significant of a character development. "This is an old dude that is totally in the same boat with Rhea and will choose her over anyone no matter what she does." Only for him to openly defend you and admonish Rhea. Then when he find out more about what she has done the conflicts between telling you the truth and trying to keep you finding her come crashing down. He wants to tell you what she did because he cares about you, but also wants to find Rhea and is afraid you will give up the search when you find out. One of my favorite characters in the story for how well he is written. His Daughter is still creepy AF thou. 1000 years old acts like a 15 year old, that's female mantis s***.
