Author Note

Hey guys!

I've just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you guys for all the supports I have received with this story. It truly has been a pleasure to do what I love and to share it with the rest of the world. As a result, I pondered to myself on what is the best way to convey what I am trying to say.

Well, after thinking long and hard, I have decided to create this note to give you guys two things:

One, a deeper insight on characters in this universe of Fire Emblem: Awakening.

Two, questions presented by you guys that I haven't addressed.

Let's begin!


1) What is Robin's profile?

Birthday: April 8

Blood Type: A

Height: 174 cm or 5ft and 8 ½ inches

Likes: Bear meat, sweets, novels

Dislikes: Cold weather, cockroaches, hard liquor


2) Why is the story in third person POV rather than first person POV?

-I've scoured through a lot of fanfics throughout the web which some sources include deviantart and fanfiction. Having read both forms of story styles, I have concluded that I find third person the most enjoyable. As a result, I chose to write "The Sword of the Frog Princess" in such format.

My main reason being is that the characters I want present are the ones living their lives, no one else. As it may sound contradictory as I control the events that occur around them, how they react in response is what drew me to this style.

Admittedly, a first person point of view is an experience that is equally thrilling and personal. However, I felt a disconnection upon finishing, leaving me in a state of discontent with the life style I currently have.


3) Is the cover image shown the Robin used for this fiction?

-Yes! This Robin was actually inspired by fan art I came across while surfing the web. My first MU also married Lissa but had a different build and was much taller. To give you an idea how tall is Game MU, Lissa's height barely reaches the tip of Frog Princess's Robin's chin!


4) Any plans for a spin off?

-As of now, I have no intention to write a spin off as to avoid confusing myself. That does not mean however, I've ruled it out. You could 'accidently' see it in the later future.


5) What is Robin's fetish(s)?

-Legs….NEXT QUESTION!


6) Why does this fiction seem unoriginal?

-When I began writing 'Sword of the Frog Princess', I actually had a goal in mind: to be memorable.

Even after going through Lunatic+ mode, my first play through stuck out to me because I had my Shepherds marry based on personality, not statistics. As soon as I began to play "Strongest character builder", the story became forgettable. To avoid falling into the trap that sucked the fun out of the game for me, I began to explore the support conversations.

One conversation that stuck out to me was when Nah asked her father how he met mother. Thinking back, I actually laugh at how three normal conversations could lead up to a confession of love and proposal. Even worse is how Chrom will propose to a woman…that he just met. So the idea came to me.

"What if I could explore the hurdles a couple had to endure before the fateful fourth conversation?"

So when a reader picks up 'Sword of the Frog Princess' and realize the storyline is the same to the game, it is based on it. The only difference is that how I imagine events around them influence the meetings and conversations shared by the couple.


7) Any OTP?

-No, I don't believe in OTP. If you have no idea what the acronym stands for, "One True Pairing."


8) Give us a random saying!

-Get that b*tch a cannon. B*tches love cannons.


9) Of all the children in Awakening, who is your favorite?

-It would have to be Brady. My biggest reason is the way he openly presents himself. Unlike his mother, his look and manner of speaking has him seem more like a thug than a noble. Ironically, his mother's support conversation with the tactician had him teach her the talk of commoners which in itself foreshadow something deeper. Despite his flaws, he cares greatly for others, especially his mother. The violin play is also a small bonus since I love classical music.
