1:15 - “You are the oceans grey waves...”

[@laddismaximus9535]

It’s the motif of the game, they gotta squeeze it in somehow.

" Las olas grises del mar" están en todas partes

0:00 - As Corrin, the path chosen is now sealed. You are committed and you have no choice but to keep moving forward.
0:43 - Approaching the great kingdom of Hoshido is both beautiful and intimidating.
0:53 - Throughout this journey, all of your allies stand tall by your side, ready and willing to help with your end goal.
1:15 - And, despite all that has happened, Azura is there along with you as well.
1:36 - Yet, the tensions have escalated dramatically. Unlike every other battle, these coming battles seem almost death defying.
1:58 - The danger here is very much real. There is no choice but to fight, no matter what or who gets on the way.
2:09 - And yet you can't help but feel heavily suffocated by the sheer pressure, wondering if this will be the end of your life.
2:19 - Putting all of your wits behind every swing of your blades is a must to survive. To keep living, to move forth with your goal... or die trying, for the greater good.
This is what the song conveys to me every time I listen to it. Absolutely my favorite out of them all.

[@Spiralpaladin]

Absolutely beautiful synopsis. Honestly, it makes me sad that the song conveys the emotional depth of the situations it plays in better than the game's writing. Because while I enjoyed Fates' gameplay for the most part, the writing, especially with Conquest just felt so....thrown together that it fails to properly convey the emotional depth you detailed here.

[@au_rie]

I love you

[@shiidatalys6035]

Brilliant.

[@na2154]

That moment in chapter 17 revelation…

[@shikuri3178]

Very satisfying, as Iago would be beaten-up by Corrin's Coalition of Hoshidan and Nohrian forces

[@NelidaUtuwatu]

The best!!

[@iwanttoputkamuistoesinmymo5938]

chapter 16-17 of revelation are so peak

[@an_impasse]

oh no, this soundtrack is giving me deja vu for when I struggled to beat Hinoka during the Conquest route. PLS NO NO NO NO. D: This was on casual mode too! Conquest is never casual, even on casual mode...

[@davidanunez2]

Haha, I remember the last chapters of Conquest being brutal. Great game!

[@an_impasse]

@@davidanunez2 it was too brutal for a noob like me...I don't think I even finished Birthright, tbh. 😅

[@hannemanisunderrated5610]

I had a lvl 25 Velouria so she kinda carried me for this map but I gotta say Sakura, Takumi and Hinoka maps were definitely the hardest for me.

[@sweetdrake8111]

This piece and its fire version are insanely good. One of the entire franchise goat

[@megasean3000]

Conquest chapters 22-24: This song is fire, but I can’t jam to a song of killing innocent people. ☹️
Conquest chapter 26: Hell yeah! This theme goes way better killing assholes like Iago and Hans! 😁
Revelations chapter 17: LEGENDARY!!! 🤩

[@d5dizzler962]

This sounds very similar to ‘sacrifice and the saint’ from echoes to me...
Both great songs I think I slightly prefer this though...

[@morganhann6626]

THERE I KNEW IT!!
I JUST COULDNT REMEMBER THE NAME I KNEW I WASNT CRAZY 😭😭

[@OxyGen020]

Literally Within Temptation - What Have You Done

[@Hesketh32]

One of the best ones!!

[@davidanunez2]

Too true.

[@ultralordthedestroyer2685]

We're invading your country theme

[@delgande]

These maps were tough as balls

[@Arkensius1157]

I like the beginning of this music

[@Waluigi2401]

As cool of a song this is especially in revelation chapter 17, it’s still hard not to think of the sad moment in conquest when you invade Hoshido

[@eggplantspider828]

Elise's right hand only has four fingers.

[@Arkensius1157]

Wrong! She has 5 fingers on both hands.

[@judeloveless9427]

Anna stole one from her!

[@user-yu8en2gy3m]

Obligatory main theme citation #9- 1:15

[@theleftfootedsultan]

Flattens a levee. But Sakura…
Slows flyers, speeds up others. But Hinoka…

[@nyvguy]

This is so sick 🔥🖤🔥

[@Lycrial]

One of the themes I heard the most, I guess!
