Naga's Tears

Lore & Background

Legends speak of this power as crystallized sorrow and hope, manifesting when the seal is activated to combat Grima's influence. It is intrinsically linked to the Scales passed down through generations, symbolizing the cost of peace. The Tears are not a weapon one wields, but a burden of destiny carried by those chosen to stand against the darkness.

In Their Own Story

The air in the palace grew cold as Chrom drew his blade. A faint, shimmering light pulsed from his veins, reminiscent of rain on hot stone. It was not blood that flowed, but something older—the memory of a goddess weeping for her children. In that moment, he felt Naga's resolve merge with his own, a silent promise that even in the face of oblivion, hope would remain.

Reader's Guide

This power functions as a metaphysical bond rather than a tradable item. It manifests through Chrom and later Lucina when they engage Grima directly. In gameplay terms related to Naga's legacy, this is represented by the Seal of Naga or Scale of Naga artifacts which grant resistance against dragon attacks. Wielders must possess the bloodline affinity to channel this energy safely. Without it, the dragon power can overwhelm a mortal host.
