mark_asphodelHonest-to-pete, a straight-faced reading of FE4 basically leads to two likely scenarios for First Gen:
1) Far from being a place of cozy love matches as seen in the manga, aside from the Canon Married Couples it was all furtive hookups and nobody knowing who/what anyone else was doing.
2) Either that or it was one big free-for-all and even the moms weren't sure where their kids came from without a visit to the fortune-teller.
Because the information we get by Gen 2 is just too ridiculous. I can understand Briggid's kids not knowing who their father was (um, doesn't Briggid have friends you could ask) but for any of the Tirnanogue kiddies not to know is just weird.
:P

Gameplay Mechanics =! Narrative

I was wondering how would have been if the whole Judgral epic was in CD instead cartidge, Intelligent Systems and Kaga would have realized their whole vision of the epic? FE5 would still would exist or become sidequest or FE4? those are the questions who are lost in the history.
