Rhea (pronounced /⁠'reɪə⁠/^[key]; Japanese: レア Rhea) is a character appearing in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. She is the archbishop of the Church of Seiros, and has served in this role since Jeralt's days as a knight. Her true identity is Seiros (pronounced /⁠'sɛroʊs⁠/^[key]; Japanese: セイロス Seiros), the slayer of Nemesis in Imperial Year 91, revered as a saint in the Church of Seiros.

Biography

Rhea was one of the last Children of the Goddess born from Sothis's own blood, and lived among her kin at Zanado in ancient Fódlan. Nemesis—the "King of Liberation", who had stolen Sothis's remains and used them to acquire the Crest of Flames and forge the Sword of the Creator—invaded Zanado with an army to harvest the bodies of goddess's children for power; save Rhea, all of the Children of the Goddess at Zanado were killed. Seeking revenge, she went to Enbarr under the name Seiros and founded the Church of Seiros, and helped Wilhelm Paul Hresvelg establish the Adrestian Empire; Seiros recruited fellow Children of the Goddess Cethleann, Cichol, Indech, and Macuil to form the Four Saints, and they gifted their blood to Wilhelm's allies—whose families would become the Adrestian nobility—amassing enough soldiers to battle Nemesis. War began between Seiros's and Nemesis's forces in Imperial year 46, starting with a battle at Gronder Field that the Adrestian Empire won. During this time, Seiros pushed the narrative that she was a prophet sent from the Goddess Sothis and the Crests and Heroes' Relics were divine blessings gifted to Nemesis and his allies to defeat evil before they became corrupted, intending to hide the origin of the powers Nemesis's allies—and now Wilhelm and the Adrestian elite—obtained, and to persuade her human allies to wage war against them given their good reputation, with only Wilhelm being aware of the deception. During the war, Seiros assumed her draconic form many times to support the Empire, which she framed in such a way it was seen as a separate entity also sent by the Goddess herself, which came to be known as the Immaculate One. In the year 91, Seiros killed Nemesis in a battle at the Tailtean Plains and retrieved her mother's bones. Within the next 7 years, she ensured the 10 Elites were hunted down, their Heroes' Relics were seized, and their clans were assimilated into the Empire. Given Nemesis's resources and knowledge about Crests and Sothis's children, Seiros suspected he had received external help and raised an investigation to uncover his collaborator's identity, which ultimately led nowhere. After the war, Seiros had the bones and Crest Stones of her fallen kin concealed in the Holy Tomb.

Over the course of the next millennium, Seiros attempted to bring Sothis back to life. During Garreg Mach's construction, she recruited the Four Apostles, mythical individuals bearing four rare Crests. In Imperial year 185, Rhea had the Four Apostles pour their blood into the Chalice of Beginnings in an undisclosed location along with Sothis's remains, hoping the experiment would resurrect her. The result of the ceremony was an Umbral Beast which quickly began to rampage, forcing Seiros to put it down; the Four Saints later disbanded. After recovering the Sword of the Creator, Seiros faked her death, assumed the alias of "Rhea" and had her supposed corpse—in reality, the Sword of the Creator but without Sothis's Crest stone—buried and sealed in the Holy Mausoleum. From this point onwards, Rhea began crafting human vessels and planting Sothis's Crest stone within their bodies before giving them life, hoping one of them would inherit her consciousness, though none were successful; during this time, she also interfered any human attempts to uncover the truth behind the Heroes' Relics, and delayed or halted Fódlan's technological and medical progress.

By Imperial year 1159, Rhea had publicly become the Archbishop of the Church of Seiros once more. Her twelfth failed vessel, Sitri, fell in love with the captain of the Knights of Seiros, Jeralt—whom Rhea had previously saved through a blood transfusion that gave him her Crest—and had a child named Byleth. However, the child was stillborn, and Rhea, at Sitri's request, transferred Sothis's Crest Stone to Byleth and saved them at the cost of Sitri's life. Byleth was unnaturally silent and had no heartbeat, leading the terrified Jeralt to fake the child's death and flee Garreg Mach Monastery with them.

In 1175, Rhea took on Shamir, a mercenary and survivor of the Dagda and Brigid War, who in turn became one of her Knights of Seiros as a way to repay her debt. In 1176, Rhea provided asylum to Cassandra, a previous Officers Academy alumni, who became a criminal in the Kingdom of Faerghus because she was falsely accused of plotting to kill King Lambert. Moved by the archbishop's gesture, Cassandra assumed the name "Catherine" and became a Knights of Seiros, pledging her loyalty to Rhea.

In 1180, Jeralt and Byleth are caught up in an attack on Officers Academy students Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude, leading the amnesiac Sothis to awaken within Byleth's soul. Jeralt returns to Garreg Mach, where Rhea reinstates Jeralt as a Knight of Seiros and gives Byleth a teaching position at the Academy in the hopes that Sothis can be resurrected through Byleth's body. Over the course of the next year, Rhea oversees the education of the students of the Officers Academy and assigns missions to Byleth and the other professors. Eventually, Jeralt is murdered by an assassin and Byleth is drawn into a trap in an attempt to avenge him. Byleth fuses with Sothis and gains all of her powers, leading Rhea to believe her long struggle has finally succeeded. She takes them to the Holy Tomb beneath the monastery in the hopes of having them commune with Sothis, but Edelgard attacks the tomb with her soldiers. Byleth defeats her, but Edelgard escapes, accuses the Church of being corrupt and stagnating humanity, and declares war on the Church. Byleth can either remain loyal to the Church or defect to the Empire; in either case, Edelgard attacks Garreg Mach. Rhea leads Church forces in battle, but is defeated.

On all routes other than Crimson Flower, where Byleth remains loyal to the Church, Rhea is captured by Imperial forces after the battle and is imprisoned in the Imperial capital Enbarr for the next five years so that Edelgard can use her as insurance against those who slither in the dark. After Byleth awakens from a coma, rallies an army, and kills Edelgard, they rescue Rhea. On the Azure Moon route, she passes the title of Archbishop on to Byleth and peacefully retires to Zanado. On the Silver Snow and Verdant Wind routes, Edelgard's vassal Hubert reveals the existence of the true threat to Fódlan, a cult known as those who slither in the dark, and directs Byleth to their stronghold at Shambhala. Rhea recounts some of her personal history to Byleth and accompanies them to Shambhala, where she transforms into the Immaculate One in order to protect Byleth from those who slither in the dark's javelins of light. Severely injured, Rhea is returned to Garreg Mach Monastery. On the Silver Snow route, she recounts her experiments to resurrect Sothis, but suddenly suffers from draconic degeneration, transforms into the Immaculate One, and goes berserk; Byleth is forced to defeat her. If Rhea and Byleth did not unlock their A support, Rhea dies in Byleth's arms; while if they did unlock their A support, she barely survives and manages to make a full recovery. On the Verdant Wind route, when those who slither in the dark resurrect Nemesis in a final attack on Fódlan, Rhea recounts the rest of her history to Byleth. She is not seen afterwards, and presumably succumbs to her wounds and dies offscreen.

On the Crimson Flower route, where Byleth defects to the Empire, their betrayal causes Rhea to suffer a total psychotic breakdown. After the Battle of Garreg Mach, Rhea retreats to the Faerghus capital of Fhirdiad, and Dimitri ascends the throne and allies with her. Rhea spends the next five years in a stalemate with the Empire, until Byleth awakens from their coma and tips the war in Adrestia's favor. Rhea leads Church forces in an attack on the monastery, but despite killing Adrestian commanders Randolph and Ladislava, is defeated and forced to retreat. Retaking the name Seiros, she and Dimitri confront the Imperial army at the Tailtean Plains, but Dimitri is killed and Seiros is again driven off. Seiros returns to Fhirdiad, takes control of the Kingdom, orders Fhirdiad burned to the ground, and transforms into the Immaculate One; she faces Edelgard and Byleth in battle at Fhirdiad, but is slain.

Endings

Rhea can only be S-Supported with Byleth on the Silver Snow route; otherwise she has no ending.

Byleth, Wandering Flame & Rhea
After finally saving both Fódlan and Rhea from crisis, Byleth ascended the throne as the first leader of the United Kingdom of Fódlan. From his/her temporary residence at Garreg Mach Monastery, he endeavored to restore and develop Fódlan. Having narrowly escaped death, Rhea took time to recover her strength before returning to her role as archbishop. Upon her return, she applied herself to rehabilitating the church and helping those who had suffered because of the war. Thereafter, the two worked closely to forge new policies and achieve progress for Fódlan. The pair's collective work came to be thought of as nothing short of miraculous.

Quotes

Battle quotes

“	So you have sullied yourself by joining the rebels? I hope you came prepared to breathe your last.	”	— Rhea, as a boss in Black Eagles Chapter 12.

“	You... How dare you betray me... You worthless piece of garbage... I will punish you myself!	”	— Rhea, as a boss fighting Byleth in Black Eagles Chapter 12.

“	Rhea: No matter your reasons, I cannot permit you to go on living any longer! Edelgard: The feeling is mutual. I must put a stop to your reign of tyranny! Rhea: You must know what a fool you are. The greatest of sins is to make an enemy of the goddess herself! Edelgard: I have only made an enemy of the church, not of the faith.	”	— Rhea, as a boss fighting Edelgard in Black Eagles Chapter 12.

“	You are all damned, with no hope of salvation. For the sin of insurgency, you shall be consigned to hell!	”	— Rhea, as an enemy in Crimson Flower Chapter 17.

“	I once walked this world as Seiros, the warrior... and defeated the Fell King Nemesis. Now, here I stand, facing one who wields the same sword as he... The fate you have chosen is also the same as his... To die in torment upon my sword, as the very lifeblood you have forsaken spills onto the earth!	”	— Rhea, as an enemy fighting Byleth in Crimson Flower Chapter 17.

“	Rhea: An ancestor of the Hresvelgs, who became Adrestia's first emperor... He saved me. Supported me. Gave his all to the cause of defeating Nemesis. That I should find myself here at Tailtean, striking down his scion... Edelgard: I don't advise presumptions, Rhea. I will not die by your hand.	”	— Rhea, as an enemy fighting Edelgard in Crimson Flower Chapter 17.

“	I see that the years have not cured humanity of its folly... You still wish to hurt and betray my mother and myself!	”	— The Immaculate One, as an enemy in Crimson Flower Chapter 18.

“	Give her back... Give back my mother! Gaaaaaah!	”	— The Immaculate One, as an enemy fighting Byleth in Crimson Flower Chapter 18.

“	Edelgard: So it's true. You don't value human life at all. Isn't that right, Immaculate One? The Immaculate One: Nonsense! Fools who do not accept their own sins are undeserving of salvation! You humans are the ones who betrayed! You betrayed me, and you betrayed my mother! Edelgard: I did not betray you or her. I never believed in you from the beginning.	”	— The Immaculate One, as an enemy fighting Edelgard in Crimson Flower Chapter 18.

“	Graaaaargh!	”	— The Immaculate One's battle quote in Chapter 21 of Silver Snow.

Trivia

Seiros shown without blood coating the sword and her hands.

• The version of Revenge shown at E3 2018 omitted blood from the scene.
• Counting her four health bars in total, Rhea has the highest HP total of any single enemy unit in the main Fire Emblem series, with 640 as the final boss of Silver Snow on Maddening mode.
  • As the final boss of Silver Snow on Maddening, Rhea's second form's final health bar has the highest raw stat total of any unit in the Fire Emblem series if movement is not included, with 525. If all four health bars are counted together, Rhea reaches a grand total of 966.
• Rhea is the only non-playable character in the Fire Emblem series to have C, B, and A support conversations with a playable character.
  • Additionally, Rhea is the only character with whom Byleth can obtain an A support before Part II (not counting the ability to buy back support levels in New Game +).
• As a boss in Crimson Flower Chapter 17, Rhea's map sprite depicts her as an archbishop even when using her Saint Seiros garb for that particular battle.
  • Despite this, there are sprites in the game's code that depict her in the Saint class, though these are left unused for unknown reasons.
• Rhea's S-Rank illustration was off-model in the initial release, as it depicted her with an incorrect design on her outfit and Byleth's hand as a solid color. This was fixed in Version 1.0.2.
