“	Goldoa will not move.	”	— Dheginsea, in a flashback

Dheginsea (pronounced /⁠dəˈɡɪnsiə⁠/^[key]^[2]; Japanese:デギンハンザーDheginhansea), also known asDeghinsea inPath of Radiance and PAL regions ofRadiant Dawn, is the king ofGoldoa, land of thedragon laguz. He is one ofAshera'sThree Heroes who defeated the Dark GodYune. He has three children:Almedha,Rajaion, andKurthnaga. He has two grandchildren:Soren and another from Rajaion. He wishes to live in peace and tries to prevent the other laguz tribes from fighting.

InRadiant Dawn, he sides withAshera after her judgment.

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance

Role

Dheginsea's only formal appearance in the events of this story is in a cutscene, which takes place shortly after theGreil Mercenaries arrive inBegnion. In the cutscene, he arranges a meeting between all of the laguz kings, in order to discuss the ongoing conflict spurred by Mad KingAshnard. There, he advises the other kings on how to proceed, stressing that they keep in mindLehran's Medallion and the dark god trapped within, which could be freed if the war engulfs the entire continent ofTellius.

Dheginsea never gets involved directly in the war, for the sake of preserving the seal on the medallion. However, it is implied that he was strongly tempted by Ashnard to join the fray, when the Mad King enslaved his son,Rajaion and used the feral dragon as his personal mount.

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn

Role

Dheginsea first appears at the ending cutscene ofPart III, Chapter 8. After theLaguz Alliance emerges fromKauku Caves, enteringGoldoa by mistake, they are taken to the King to be held trial for their trespass, however unintentional. It is only through the wishes of his subjectsNasir andEna that the alliance is spared, and allowed to return by land toGallia, rather than be forced to return via the fiery caves.

Later on, afterAshera's judgment turns almost everyone onTellius to stone, it is revealed that Dheginsea, along with most of his people, were called to side with Ashera, and preventYune's army from reaching her in theTower of Guidance. InPart IV, Endgame, the dragon prince and Dheginsea's last surviving son, princeKurthnaga, faces off against his father, along withIke and his party. Because Dheginsea refuses to believe that Yune was released fromLehran's Medallion by means of theGaldr of Release, he stands fast, along with most of his dragon subjects, and fights them. Despite his immense power, being far and away the strongest non-divine being in the world, and his lingering blessing from Ashera many centuries ago, he is defeated by Yune's army. With his last breath, he passes on his crown to Kurthnaga, and makes amends with Yune, despite having rewritten history against her. After giving his final regards to his people, he succumbs to his wounds in the tower and dies.

Quotes

Battle quotes

“	Fools! By denying your judgment, you merely rush to your death.	”	— Dheginsea, as the boss ofPart IV, Chapter 3 ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Feel the power of Ashera's faithful!	”	— Dheginsea, when usingJudge inRadiant Dawn.

“	Dheginsea: You... you're one of the parentless... Micaiah: You know me? Dheginsea: Yes. I knew the first of your kind. I have been alive for a very long time... Perhaps too long. But soon it will all be over.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingMicaiah in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Dheginsea: In my eyes, the mightiest of you looks no different than an infant. Can you hope to stand a chance? Sanaki: Of... of course. I am Sanaki, 37th empress of Begnion. It is my duty to save my people. Even the world's mightiest dragon will not dissuade me from that calling. Dheginsea: All right, then, child. Fulfill your duty.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingSanaki in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Dheginsea: Have at you, follower of Yune. Sothe: I won't live as long as you have, and I'll never be as powerful. Things like saving the world and fighting goddesses are just beyond me. They're out of my reach. That's why I've always chosen to fight for the smaller things in life and the people close to me. If that means I have to fight you to protect them, then so be it.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingSothe in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Ike: Dheginsea, Dragon King. I can see you have no intention of letting us pass. Dheginsea: I follow my goddess's decrees. My will is unwavering. Ike: I have no choice, then. Be on your guard. Dheginsea: Very well, beorc general. Our blessings may be equal and opposite, but your strength is a mere fraction of mine. Show me your best!	”	— Dheginsea when fightingIke in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Dheginsea: You, too, deign to oppose the goddess Ashera? Elincia: I will do whatever is required to rescue those who were petrified. I beg of you, Dragon King, please reconsider what Prince Kurthnaga has told you. Dheginsea: It is too late. People, in our weakness, betray the goddess, and are meant to be punished for it. Elincia: I cannot believe that. People are capable of both terrible and wonderful things. To describe them so simply and cynically does them a disservice. Dheginsea: If I am defeated today, that may convince me that I am wrong. Come... I'm waiting.	”	— Dheginsea when fightingElincia in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Dheginsea: Naesala, you dare challenge me? Naesala: Heh. It's funny you should ask that... I'm not deluded enough to think that I can beat you. The goddess herself would hesitate to fight you. But my people are frozen solid, and I have to delude myself enough to think that I can help save them. Dheginsea: You are a true king, Naesala. I am ready when you are. Naesala: I'll be thrilled if I land even a single blow. I'm much better at fleeing than fighting.	”	— Dheginsea when fightingNaesala in Part 4 Engame-3 ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Dheginsea: You... are of the wolf people? Nailah: Yes. After the floods, we built our country to the east of the great desert. Dheginsea: ...So we weren't the only ones to survive... Nailah: Until we met Rafiel, we too thought ours were the only people left. Dheginsea: In your country, are there only people of the wolf tribe? Nailah: No, beorc live there, as well. There are also a number of what you call the "parentless." Children born of both laguz and beorc parents are still relatively few.. but they live normally among us. Dheginsea: Is that so? Nailah: That's probably enough chatting. Do you still intend to block our path? Dheginsea: ...I will not deny my goddess. Nailah: And I won't deny my conscience. I will revive those turned to stone, and you cannot stop me.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingNailah in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Caineghis: King Dheginsea, I owe you an apology. You warned me often of the danger of open war, but I did not listen. I want you to know how truly sorry I am for the strife that has once again engulfed our world, and my part in it. However... I will not meekly accept judgment by the goddess. Regardless of my duty to her, the petrified people must be saved. Dheginsea: Caineghis, king of beasts. I regret that we must stand on opposing sides. Now we must determine which one of us is in the right.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingCaineghis in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Tibarn: I never would have believed that one day I'd be facing off against you. Life sure is funny, sometimes. Dheginsea: Even you, Tibarn? Don't make me kill you. You haven't got a chance. Tibarn: Don't be so sure about that. You just might be surprised. Besides, you've got a lot to answer for, Dheginsea. You'll finally pay the price for all those years of inaction and indifference as your kin were butchered and enslaved. Dheginsea: You shortsighted fool, you still don't understand... All right, I'm waiting. Show me what you've got.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingTibarn in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Kurthnaga: Father! Please think about what you're doing. Dheginsea: The time for words has passed. The only option remaining is to stop you with brute force. Kurthnaga: Why? Father, why? Dheginsea: That is enough! No more sniveling! You, Kurthnaga, were to rule the dragon tribe in years to come. Show me that you would have been capable! Kurthnaga: But-- Yes, sir... I'll show you.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingKurthnaga in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

“	Ena: Your Majesty... Dheginsea: Come now, Ena. Fight. Ena: I'm sorry, I can't. I may have turned my back on my king and left my own country, but I still belong to the dragon tribe. I wouldn't dare attack my own king. I couldn't. Dheginsea: Then as your king, I order you. I order you to fight for Kurthnaga's life. Ena: My king! Dheginsea: You and he need each other. You are different from other dragons. Ena: ... Very well, Your Majesty.	”	— Dheginsea, when fightingEna in Part IV, Endgame (3) ofRadiant Dawn.

Dheginsea: Harvest Goldoan

The King of Goldoa, the dragon tribe kingdom, has come to the harvest festival! Here's Dheginsea, wearing a fearsome black cape!

Goldoa normally refuses any outside contact, but Dheginsea has made a break with tradition by dressing up as a vampire from distant lands! He certainly does look like a creature of the night!

I see some very draconic-looking designs on the shoulders and waist of his outfit, and the sharp points on his cape make it look like a pair of dragon wings!

Even while dressed in unusual garb, that's unmistakably him. Congratulations, Dheginsea—I hereby crown you the harvest festival's Fashion King!
