Kishuna is a mysterious enemy character that appears throughout {{FE7}}, their true intentions are unknown, but Kishuna has a tendency to appear before [[Lyn]], [[Eliwood]], and [[Hector]] during their travels.
Kishuna is a mysterious enemy character who appears throughout {{FE7}}. His true intentions are unknown, but Kishuna has a tendency to appear before [[Lyn]], [[Eliwood]], and [[Hector]] during their travels.


Kishuna's first appearance is in [[Imprisioner of Magic|chapter 18xE/19xH]], much to [[Aion]]'s chagrin.<ref>{{cite|Wha-What?! The magic power of this place... The source is... distorted... I... I can’t use any of my magic!|[[Aion]]|Blazing Sword}}</ref> Kishuna's presence also seems to have a negative effect on Lyn's and Hector's moods before he appears.<ref>{{Cite|Now that you mention it, I was so irritable... I couldn't let even the smallest thing go by without complaining. ...What could that have been? The Black Fang couldn't use magic either. So it wasn't an ally of theirs...|[[Lyn]]|Blazing Sword}}</ref> Kishuna is accompanied by some [[morph]] allies, though Kishuna makes no particular acts of aggression other than appearing. The morph companions, however, will attack anyone that comes near. Aion seems to be familiar with Kishuna, but it is unknown how he came to know of the magic seal.<ref>{{cite|A magic– That good-for-nothing has shown his face?! Curses... I’d not forseen this!!|[[Aion]]|Blazing Sword}}</ref> Defeating Kishuna here is the requirement for proceeding to [[A Glimpse in Time|chapter 19xx]], if he is defeated here Kisuna does not die and warps out.
Kishuna's first appearance is in [[Imprisoner of Magic|Chapter&nbsp;18xE/19xH]], much to [[Aion]]'s chagrin.<ref>{{cite|Wha-What?! The magic power of this place... The source is... distorted... I... I can't use any of my magic!|[[Aion]]|The Blazing Blade}}</ref> Being within a certain proximity to Kishuna also seems to evoke unease and agitation; Lyn and Hector are shown to fall under such effects in Chapter&nbsp;18xE/19xH.<ref>{{Cite|Now that you mention it, I was so irritable...

I'd not forseen this!!|[[Aion]]|The Blazing Blade}}</ref> Defeating Kishuna here is one of the requirements for proceeding to [[A Glimpse in Time|Chapter&nbsp;19x pt 2]]; if he is defeated here, Kishuna does not die, merely teleporting to safety upon defeat.


Kishuna's next appearance is in [[Genesis|chapter 22xE/23xH]]. Lyn, Eliwood, and Hector fall into underground ruins in the desert on their travels to meet [[Athos]]. If the game is in Hector mode Kishuna has a flashback recalling his creation by [[Nergal]], this flashback does not occur if Eliwood mode is being played. Kishuna is once again accompanied by several morphs. Hector, [[Nils]], and [[Pent]] discuss the thick feeling in the air caused by Kishuna.<ref>{{cite|'''Pent:'''...Something strange is here. I can feel it in the air.<br>'''Nils:''' Yes! You're right. It feels... thick!<br>'''Hector:''' This strange feeling... I know it... I've felt it before. Back on Valor.<br>'''Nils:''' On the Dread Isle?<br>'''Hector:''' Mm. We first felt it in some ruins near the Dragon's Gate. It was... a prickly feeling that rubbed us all the wrong way. Then, suddenly, everyone's magic stopped working.|[[Hector]], [[Pent]] and [[Nils]]|Blazing Sword}}</ref> Once again, Kishuna vanishes after being attacked without saying a word.

Ninian will later comment that even Kishuna's existence "makes a ruin of nature's most basic laws."


Lastly, Kishuna appears in [[The Value of Life|chapter 32x]], Nils mentions that his magic sealing aura no longer feels hostile and instead is filled with sorrow.<ref>{{cite|What's going on? It feels different than last time. In the desert, its energy felt so hostile... Now, it feels more like ...sorrow?|[[Nils]]|Blazing Sword}}</ref> The lords defeat Kishuna's morph companions, and, finally, kill Kishuna himself. According to Nils, Kishuna's last words were calling out Nergal's name.<ref>{{cite|But it was still a morph. When it died... I heard its voice call out... It called out a name... Nergal. Did you hear its voice? Sorrow... It was filled with a terrible sorrow.|[[Nils]]|Blazing Sword}}</ref>

==Personality and character==
==Personality==
Kishuna is very much a character that keeps to himself, not speaking a single word until his death. Considering his last word was [[Nergal]]'s name, Kishuna seems to have still held some feelings towards Nergal after being rejected.

==Trivia==
[[File:Cg fe07 38.png|thumb|The unused CG.]]
* Kishuna is the only morph not explicitly modeled after a specific [[human]] to have an [[affinity]].
* In the [[Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade pre-release build 0206|0206]] and [[Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade pre-release build 0219|0219]] prototype builds, Kishuna uses [[Ein]]'s portrait from {{FE6}}.
* Nergal specifically mentions that Kishuna is his 252nd morph in Japanese,<ref name=number/> though this specific number was omitted in the localization.<ref>{{Cite|You are the only morph to whom I've given emotions. It won't suffice simply to refer to you as a number. |[[Nergal]] (English release)|The Blazing Blade}}</ref>
* There is an unused CG in ''The Blazing Blade'' that may feature Kishuna; it may also have been intend to be used in [[The Value of Life|Chapter&nbsp;32x]] rather than re-use the CG from [[Genesis|Chapter&nbsp;22xE/23xH]].
*''The Blazing Blade''{{'}}s boss theme table has an entry that assigns Kishuna the battle theme "Rise to the Challenge". As battles involving Kishuna are forced to use map animations, this battle theme assignment is unused.

==Trivia==
[[File:Cg fe07 38.png|thumb|The unused CG.]]
* Kishuna is the only morph not explicitly modeled after a specific [[human]] to have an [[affinity]].
* In the [[Fire Emblem (GBA) prototype build 0205|two]] [[Fire Emblem (GBA) prototype build 0219|prototypes]] Kishuna uses [[Ein]]'s portrait from {{FE6}}.
* Nergal specifically mentions that Kishuna is his 252nd morph,<ref name=number></ref> though this specific number was omitted in the localization.<ref>{{Cite|You are the only morph to whom I’ve given emotions. It won’t suffice simply to refer to you as a number. |[[Nergal]] (English release)|Blazing Sword}}</ref>
* There is an unused GC in ''Fire Emblem'' that may also feature Kishuna. The CGs appearing in Hector mode only are mostly separated from the main story's CGs internally and ordered chronologically by themselves; with the order being [[Pirate Ship|chapter 18]]'s Lyn and Hector CG, [[A Glimpse in Time|chapter 19xx's]] Ninian, Nils and Nergal CG, [[Genesis|chapter 22xE/23xH's]] Kishuna's creation CG, but then [[The Value of Life|chapter 32x]] re-uses the CG that first appears in chapter 22xE/23xH; even though there is another CG after the others and before the other endgame CGs. The unused CG is also much more fitting for the scene, as during the flashback in 32x Nergal is rejecting Kisuna due to uselessness, not witnessing Kishuna's creation again.
