Say'ri

The upright and dignified princess of the Chon'sin dynasty. She has a direct approach and never forgives a crooked deed. Appears in Fire Emblem Awakening. Name: Say'ri Gender: Female Race: Human Birthday: January 11 Relatives: Unnamed Parents, Yen'fay (Elder Brother) Occupation: Princess of Chon'sin Weapon: Katana </Personal Information> Say'ri is a young adult woman with long black hair, black eyes and light skin. Her attire consists of a white headband, a lavender kimono top, a purple skirt, a black sleeveless samurai jacket, silver arm guards and white long boots. A princess of Chon'sin, Say'ri seems different from the people of Ylisse and has an old-fashioned look, which matches her manner of speech. She is willing to explain them to those unacquainted with Chon'sin culture, as shown in her supports with both male and female Robin.

Say'ri adores her brother, but is angered by the fact that he has allied himself with Walhart, the man who killed their parents. While she suspects that he has his reasons, she is outraged by his stony silence when she demands answers in the Demon's Ingle. It is only upon his death that she feels remorse for having to strike him down, as the truth of his compliance is revealed. In turn, her bitterness and hatred turn to Excellus, who played a major role in his death.

She is the best skin diver in the army. Once a princess of Chon'sin, a small nation in Valm, Say'ri lived a happy life until the day Walhart invaded her land and killed her parents; she was devastated by this event and was shocked when Yen'fay did not seem fazed by it. Say'ri left Chon'sin after her brother decided to ally with Walhart.

Say'ri gathers members to form a small resistance across Valm to combat the Valmese army and eventually meets The Voice of the Divine Dragon, Tiki. Later, she is cornered by Walhart's men in Valm harbor, but is rescued by the timely appearance of Chrom's army, who had just begun their invasion of Valm. United by their common goal, Say'ri joins the Ylissean forces. Say'ri leads Chrom's army to the Mila Tree, where she introduces him to Tiki.

After the victory in Steiger Fortress, Say'ri learns that the diversion forces sent up to the north to Valm, as well as the south in Chon'sin, were decimated by Walhart and her brother, Yen'fay's armies. Deciding to attack one of the main forces behind the Valm forces, Say'ri and Chrom's army head off to The Demon's Ingle, a volcano. They are greeted by the army led by Yen'fay. Should Say'ri battle Yen'fay, she declares that she cannot forgive her brother for doing nothing, as their parents were killed and the country was destroyed by Walhart. Most importantly, she could not forgive him for aiding the very man responsible for all of this. After defeating her brother, Say'ri notices that Yen'fay did not fight seriously and was defeated far too easily. Yen'fay is happy to know that Say'ri will be kept safe by her newfound allies and succumbs to his wounds without telling her why he allied with Valm. After the battle, Excellus warps in to tell Say'ri that Yen'fay allied with Valm to protect her. As long as Yen'fay fought for Valm, they would not kill Say'ri, no matter how much she fought against Valm. Happy to see Say'ri's horrified face after learning the truth, Excellus warps away.

Remorseful for her actions and her past feelings toward her brother, Say'ri resolves to continue with Chrom's army to take down Walhart, once and for all. After Walhart is defeated after a long battle at Valm Castle, Say'ri recovers the Gemstone Vert and gives it to Chrom so he can perform the Awakening Ceremony with the Fire Emblem, now with 4 of the 5 gems. Say'ri accompanies Chrom for the rest of his journey.

In Paralogue 21, Chrom and his army arrive at the Warriors' Tomb, the gravesite for many past Chon'sin warriors. Rumors recently spread that people have seen Say'ri's deceased brother, Yen'fay, there. It turned out that the rumors were true and Say'ri is reunited with her brother; however, the Yen'fay at the Tomb is not the same one that was killed at the Demon's Ingle. Say'ri learns that this Yen'fay is one from another timeline, a timeline where she was killed rather than him. Say'ri reveals her enduring guilt for killing Yen'fay in the current timeline, while Yen'fay feels the same for letting Say'ri be killed because of his weakness in his timeline. Yen'fay decides to join the army to protect Say'ri this time, when he could not before.

After the war, Say'ri returns to Chon'sin and works alongside others to restore peace to Valm, though she is occasionally seen visiting Yen'fay's grave. Say'ri uses a katana as her weapon.
