furry discrimination (fe) + fantasy assimilation (3h)

[shrineofseals]

The human-dragon conflict in Elibe having an environmentalist spin to it (i.e. escalation of the war resulting in a nuclear winter) is a delightful additional layer to the (admittedly elementary) anti-war themes that inform much of the series' identity. Even FE8 had a nice aside, having a go at anthropocentric thinking in the supports...

Wait... Are we doing ridiculously oblique fantasy assimilation now??

And I'm taking it seriously?

Wait. Xane already did that in Shadow Dragon.

(Fantasy racism is still fake as in, Shinon is still a cunt, etc.

Fantasy racism is fake but textual dehumanisation is real and concerning coming from someone in power (a whole emperor and lord of a FE game, no less) making social commentary.

Fantasy assimilation is fake but this still adds a layer to Claude and Rhea's potential relationship...)
