Edelgard was still trying to topple Dimitri last I remember, though I don't think they were involved in a direct conflict. I assume if he's here—and if he's the same Dimitri I remember—then yeah: Edelgard won the war.

[ There's three from Faerghus and himself. So far he hasn't seen anyone from Adrestria. Does that mean Edelgard is destined to win, in each timeline and in each world? Was the future she raged for, for the future for which Fódlan was fated?

He'd be lying if he said the thought didn't make him bitter. All that he strove for these past years, and all the lives that had died at his command... was it really fruitless after all?

So not only had he died in the conflict, but he had to live in this hellscape with the knowledge of his failure. He supposes it's the least that he deserves.

But he doesn't wallow too long in self-pity, calm as he meets Sylvain's gaze. ]


I told Dimitri to abandon the Church. Do that, and it would discredit the manpower and money that Edelgard was pouring into her war against Faerghus. Not to mention the Kingdom would be free of Rhea's puppeteering.

[ None of this is entirely untrue. Claude had never had any quarrel with the Kingdom, save that they were forced to shelter Rhea so that the monarchy could cling to its authority. ]

You can imagine that Rhea wasn't too pleased with my attempts to steal away her only ally.
