Letters of Lyndis

Dear Hector,

How's my big Ostian lunk doing? Still training with your axe? I hope you're spending as much time with Lilina as you can. I really miss her a lot.

The tournament life is fine, although there are times I wish I was a regular fighter instead of an assistant. Then I could really show off my skills whenever I want to. You know me...I'm all about my strength. If I was able to, I would use the Mani Katti and a Short Bow and fight like I did in the days of fighting the Black Fang and Nergal.

Speaking of Nergal...this is really unrelated, but I want to surprise you. Did you know the Master Hand let villains in this tournament?

It's true!! One of them is a giant spiked turtle (I'm not kidding), who apparently kidnaps the Mushroom Kingdom princess a lot! A running joke among us Assist Trophies is that we don't know WHY he kidnaps the princess so much: is it because he wants to rule her kingdom or is it because he's madly in love with her? It's an utter mystery.

Another villain is a humanoid wolf (again, I am not kidding). He's apparently the leader of a band of mercenaries for hire that deal with criminal dealings. I don't think he's that evil, but he is one of the biggest rivals to the humanoid fox and bird. So he has to fall under the category of villain. I kind of like him, though. He's really powerful, and one of his taunts is, "What's the matter, scared?"

It's unbelievable, some of the people you find here. Those humanoid animals come from outer space!

But if you thought that was weird...there's a giant penguin with a REALLY big hammer here! That hammer's bigger then Armads, and you remember how big it was!! That penguin's another villain. He's apparently a greedy king of a far off planet. And I'm still not kidding.

The last villain here is probably the one that scares me the most. It's a rather big brute of a man, who's even creepier then Nergal. He wears a lot of black armor and he has GREEN skin. He uses the power of darkness to fight, but I secretly think he's a big wuss.

Why? One of his taunts is drawing out a pure white sword he apparently stole, looking at it and then putting it away. What kind of villain does that? He doesn't even use it!!

Anyway, I suppose it's a good thing Master Hand didn't use a time paradox and make Nergal one of the villains. We would have a real problem. I bet you my sword Nergal would sap all the quintessence from the strongest fighters right away and laugh.

Ugh...I'm going to stop writing about him now...

Anyway, take good care of Lilina for me. Be sure to play with her and her pony too! And tell her that Mommy loves her very much.

Love,
Lyndis

A/N: Yet another fun letter to write. Lilina is a friend of Roy in their game (which I'm currently playing) and the daughter of a reckless lord in the first FE game that came to us. It's almost canon, the Lyn/Hector pairing, but not my preferred shipping. :D Also, in the game, she makes fun of Hector a LOT. I decided to bring that back. xD. Not to mention making fun of Gannydork and his big shiny sword. Why doesn't he use it?! That idiot...

Also, note that I DO know how to spell "ax". But in Fire Emblem, they spell it with an e, so I'm just following that spelling.

Don't forget the challenge is open until December. Good luck!!
