Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave revealed a playable older woman who fights with a gun, and attention has focused on her design and role in the story. Artists are centering Esmeralda and Leda, celebrating the character as a cool, 'handsome butch grandma' and thanking the game for giving another playable older woman beyond Niime. Speculation about Aurora possibly being Cai's mother threads into hopes she will link to Yuri's backstory, and players are already imagining Team Dietrich-style dynamics and delighting in the game's gunplay and 'shoot lasers' energy.
