Saint Indech (pronounced /⁠ˈɪndɛk⁠/[key][2]; Japanese: インデッハ Indech) was a significant figure in the history of Fódlan. He is one of the Four Saints who fought alongside Seiros in the battle against Nemesis. He is also known as the Immovable (Japanese: 動かさざる重きもの That which is too heavy to move).

Biography

Indech is one of the Children of the Goddess. After the massacre perpetuated by Nemesis in Zanado, he joined forces with Seiros and the other surviving Nabateans, becoming one of the Four Saints and sharing his blood to his human allies, empowering them against their upcoming fight with Nemesis and his allies. Indech later participated in the War of Heroes, vanishing from all records of history once it came to a close.

In Imperial Year 1185-1186, Indech can be found in a paralogue availabe for all routes where Leonie is guided by Linhardt to Lake Teutates, seeking to obtain The Inexhaustible, Indech's sacred bow. Both then are greeted by Indech in his dragon form, telling them they need to clear his trial—defeating his phantoms and himself—if they desire a wish from him. Leonie, Linhardt and their allies pass Indech's trial and the saint grants them his weapon before they depart.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Role

Indech is the boss of Linhardt and Leonie's paralogue, Legend of the Lake.

Personality

Indech was known for being reclusive, to the point of hiding himself at the bottom of Lake Teutates, and living most of his life in solitude.[3] In spite of this however, he was also a renowned and unyielding fighter, always helping those in need with his skills and wisdom.
