Dead or Alive

OK.  So I was looking over AceNoctali's translation of the FE4 epilogue to help with a scene in "While You Were Sleeping." I hadn't looked over that translation in rather a long time and this time around something leapt out at me.

Well, for a start, the fan-translation implies that Azel's dead, which was kind of an issue for my story. But that's what fanfic is for, so never mind. But it also confirmed two other Gen 1 characters as pushing up daises: Ayra and Raquesis. The former was not much of a surprise, given that Larcei's stubborn insistence that her mother wasn't dead seemed like more of a character flaw on Larcei's part, one not shared by her twin.  I've always figured she was dead anyway.  The latter is, uh, explicitly contradicted in FE5.  

And you thought those FE13 Paralogues were problematic. LOL. )

That J!fandom website maintainer who spoke of FE4 as the "Sigurdverse" or however she put it was onto something.
