| “ | It does not matter what I know or think. I am a knight; I have a duty to fight for my motherland's glory till the very end. | ” | — Camus |
|---|
Camus (pronounced /kəˈmu/[key][1]; Japanese:カミュCamus), later known by the alternate identitiesZeke (Japanese:ジークZeak) andSirius (Japanese:シリウスSirius), is a knight originating fromGrust. At the time of theWar of Shadows, he was the leader of theSable Order, and according toMarth was reputed acrossArchanea as "the most able warrior alive". During the war, he servedMedeus andDolhr despite his personal misgivings, and was responsible for allowing PrincessNyna ofArchanea to escape Dolhr's captivity. He refused to betray his liege even to the end, ultimately vanishing in battle againstMarth.
In the following years Camus re-emerged inValentia, now known as Zeke. He served KingRudolf ofRigel until encounteringAlm, joining the latter's army by request of his king during the war withZofia. At the war's conclusion he briefly left to return to Archanea to fulfill one final task for his old life, assuming the identity of the masked knight Sirius.
Biography
Knight of Grust

When theWar of Shadows commenced in600 AC, Grust's KingLudwik was quick to join forces withDolhr, an alliance with which Camus complied despite his personal objection toMedeus's actions; his view was that, as a knight, he had no right to question his king's actions and was required to comply no matter what happens.[2] Camus and the Grustian army played a significant role in the downfall of the Kingdom of Archanea.[3] During the siege of Archanea's capital, Camus met withNyna, and arranged for himself to return in several months to take custody of Nyna and the capital as the leader of the occupation army, in a bid to protect it from crueller governors.
In the intervening two years, Camus successfully protected the capital and Nyna from further damage, during which he and Nyna eventually developed a mutual affection for each other. During this period, Camus interrupted a heist of the capital led byRickard andLena; Nyna convinced Camus to let the group go free and keep their stolen treasure, so long as it was used to aid the people of Archanea.
After two years, Medeus dispatched an army to the capital to apprehend Nyna. In response, Camus resolved to escort Nyna to find refuge with PrinceHardin inAurelis; knowing that doing so as a Grust knight would jeopardize the life of PrinceJubelo, a hostage to Medeus, he and three of his subordinates—Belf,Roberto, andReiden—deserted the Grust army. Camus and his followers successfully held off GeneralBrzak's army and ensured Nyna's escape to Aurelis, but Camus was captured. For his actions he was imprisoned and barely kept alive for a time; according to Medeus, he was the first sinceAnri to have caused him so much trouble.[4]
Near the end of the War of Shadows, Camus was released and reinstated as the leader of Grust's army, and continued to fight in Medeus's service as King Ludwik was dying of illness. Camus appeared anonymously before PrinceMarth during his and theArchanean League's assault onGra to return aThoron tome which he claimed was confiscated fromBoah.[5] As the Archanean League marched on Grust and assaulted the Grusthold, seeking to end the threat posed by Grust and the Sable Order, Camus led the defense of the realm in co-operation with fellow generalLorenz. Despite Marth and Nyna's pleas to to stand down and join them, Camus refused to turn on his liege despite his misgivings about his orders, and was defeated; he disappeared after the battle, widely thought to have been killed in action.
In Valentia

Some time after his apparent death, Camus washed up on the shores ofValentia, barely alive and with no memory of his past. He was found byTatiana ofRigel and, now calling himself Zeke, was taken in by its king,Rudolf, eventually becoming one of his most trusted vassals. Rudolf tasked Zeke to, should he encounter a boy with a mark on his left hand, join that boy's righteous cause.
At some point, Tatiana was taken captive byNuibaba, and Zeke was forced to serve alongside the brutal GeneralJerome at the Rigel Plains. Upon hearing word that Nuibaba had fallen and Tatiana had been freed, Zeke and his squad turned on Jerome and assistedAlm in fighting Jerome's men.[a] After the fight, he consulted with Alm at Rigel Village; he agreed to aid Alm against Rudolf upon discovering that Alm bore a birthmark upon his left hand.[a] After the conclusion of the war, Zeke recovered his old memories and briefly left Valentia.[a]
The masked knight Sirius
As theWar of Heroes was commencing, Zeke travelled back to Archanea, usingConrad's mask[6] and adopting the identity of "Sirius". His first task was to rescueYuliya andJubelo, the heirs to Grust, whose lives were being threatened by the forces of theArchanean Empire under GeneralLang. At Holm Coast, Sirius found them under the protection ofOgma and allied with him in defending the children,[7] continuing to do so in Marth's army through the War of Heroes.
During the war, Belf—a former Sable Knight—can confront Sirius and identify him as Camus, but remains quiet at Sirius's request. At theDragon Altar, Sirius can wake the captive Nyna from her hypnosis at the hands of Gharnef,[8] again denying his identity as Camus.[9] After Medeus's downfall, Sirius disappears,[10] presumably returning to Valentia.

Analysis
| This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Sirius joins in Chapter 4 as an extremely overlevelled, prepromoted Paladin with the stats to match, eclipsing all of Arran's base stats except for his very low luck. His base stats are so high that he can one-round all enemies in his join chapter while using iron weapons. His base stats alone can carry him for many chapters, but his growth rates are decent too, having high growths in strength and skill and decent growths everywhere else apart from luck. However, he suffers from the terrain penalties that face Paladins throughoutMystery of the Emblem, and he also has to dismount for indoor chapters. This means that he will be outclassed by fliers and units with better terrain data on many maps, especially during theAnri's Way arc, though he is still great on maps that allow him to take full advantage of the Paladin's movement.
Overall, Sirius is an excellent unit for many maps, especially in the early game, though there are also a lot of maps that actively hinder his ability to contribute.

Analysis
| This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Sirius is aPaladin who joins extremely early for a promoted unit, and will remain useful in every chapter ofNew Mystery of the Emblem. He has only one real flaw, that being his low luck, making him face crit chances from most enemies, especially on higher difficulties. However, even that can be useful – it can be used to manipulate enemy AI, since the AI takes critical chance and damage into consideration when prioritizing units to attack.
Sirius joins with an A-rank in lances, a B-rank in swords, good personal bases, and even very good growths – although most units inNew Mystery of the Emblem have good growths, that still means Sirius will stay relevant throughout the game. He makes a greatDracoknight thanks to his incredible lance rank, and he can also become aSwordmaster in a pinch for higher speed. These factors make him one of the player's best units when he joins. However, his base stats when compared to units of the same level are not as impressive, so his long-term stats are not as impressive as his bases despite his good growths. The best way to keep him up is to have him kill dragons in Anri's way, as they give the experience he needs to keep up later on.
Overall, Sirius is an excellent unit when he joins, and while his stat lead diminishes over time he can still remain relevant into the late-game.

Analysis
| This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Zeke is the second to last unit to join on Alm's route, and can only be recruited if the player has savedTatiana beforehand. Zeke comes with decent bases and growths, along with a great class for Alm's route, making him a solid choice for almost any team as he will be able to contribute decently well even at base. He only needs two points of speed to double every remaining enemy mounted unit besidesRudolf with a forgedRidersbane, and if that isn't necessary he can one-round enemy Barons with a +5 Steel Lance. He will likely have better stats than Clive at this point, and doesn't require training like Mathilda does. His growth rates are the best of the three, though outside of Act 6 this isn't too important. Overall, Zeke makes for a decent filler unit for the final few maps in the game, although he won't be anything amazing in those maps either.

Personality
In all of his identities, Camus is a thoroughly honorable man with a very strong sense of justice and kindness, but he considers himself bound by his honor as a knight. He views the role of a knight as that of a servant, unquestioning to his liege, and so attests that no matter how much he may disagree with his orders and tasks, he will carry them out nonetheless.[11] However, he is more than willing to perform minor acts of rebellion to aid those in the right, such as givingMarth a copy ofThoron,[12] and will not tolerate his peers inflicting abuse upon the common people, as evidenced by his turning on Jerome.[13]
Camus appears to place great importance upon the lives of those about whom he cares in any form, and so has proven to be easy to cow into submission through the taking of hostages: during the War of Shadows, he (along with Grust as a whole) was forced to serve Dolhr through the hostage-taking ofJubelo,[14] and in the Valentia war, he was forced to fight alongside Jerome while Tatiana was held in the captivity ofNuibaba.[15] Conversely, this spurred him onto his greatest acts of rebellion: his devotion to Nyna caused him to spare her life even as Dolhr and Grust demanded her execution, and he actively fought Dolhr's army to escort her to safety withHardin in Aurelis.[16]
As Sirius, knowing that his return to Archanea was temporary, he kept quiet, and maintained his distance from all others in Marth's army and continuously denied his true identity, so as to not gain attachments to anyone in the force. He even went as far as to deny his identity to Nyna herself, even after achieving his goal of saving her from Medeus.[9]

Zeke
In the midst of a violent battle, his memories returned. However, perhaps for the sake of Tatiana, whom he had fallen in love with, Or perhaps because his past overflowed with great tragedy, There was much he never revealed...
Mystery of the Emblem
Book 2
Sirius, Masked Knight
Without a word, he vanished from Archanea. The only trace of him was his mask, left on the dock he departed from.

Sirius - Mysterious Knight
After the war, Sirius left without saying a word...
Echoes: Shadows of Valentia
If Tatiana survived
The fires of war had illuminated the dark recesses of Zeke's memory. But he loved Tatiana too much to burden her with his tortuous past, so he chose to bear it in silence as they lived out their lives together.
If Tatiana died
The loss of Tatiana, the woman who had loved him deeply and unconditionally, shook Zeke with grief. He abruptly vanished from Valentia shortly after the war ended, and while some claim to have sighted him in Archanea, none of those sightings were confirmed.

Trivia

- In the Fake History section ofAPE'sMystery of the Emblem guide, there is a parody to the famousThe Tortoise and the Hare fable which depicts the Tortoise playing dead after realizing it cannot win against the Hare in the race,[17] an act the book claims became known asカメ=カミュ "Tortoise = Camus" as a gag on Camus's survival.[17] Additionally, the Japanese term for tortoise,カメkame, is similar to the first two characters of Camus's Japanese name,カミkami.
- When including Zeke inGaiden,Shouzou Kaga did so while not planning forMystery of the Emblem.[18] Unsatisfied with simply saying Camus and Zeke are different people, he agonized over resolving this, which he claims he did forMystery of the Emblem.[18]
- In the third Designer's Notes from the old Intelligent Systems website, the section aboutLena claims Camus is part of a Grustian noble house with ties to the royal family. This could suggest Camus himself is related to Grustian royalty, similar toEldigan and his ties toAgusti; however, those ties are never specified.[19]
- InFire Emblem Heroes, Camus's Grand Hero Battle map is based on a portion ofFire Emblem: Shadow Dragon Chapter 20.

Notes
- ↑1.01.11.2Zeke's recruitment and survival depend upon the player's actions; they may choose to not recruit Zeke after rescuing Tatiana, may choose to not rescue her and are thus forced to kill Zeke inRigel Plains Battle, or he may die after being recruited. However, as Zeke reappears as Sirius inMystery of the Emblem Book II and its remake, Tatiana is rescued and Zeke survives the war inValentia at least within the canon of those games.

加賀 そのあたりは本当に悩んだところなんですよ。正直いって外伝を作っているときは、S FC版のことは考えていませんでしたので。ふたつはまったく別のものですと、開き直ってしまう手もあったんですが、どうしてもそれじゃ納得がいかなくて、悩みに悩んで、私ついに熱出して倒れましてね。でも何とか解決つけまして、今回のストーリーになったんですよ。
[--Speaking of relationships between characters, there are some, like Sirius Camus, who can't ignore the story of Gaiden.
Kaga: That's something I really struggled with. To be honest, when I was making Gaiden, I wasn't thinking about the Super Famicom version. I could have just said that the two are completely different things, but I just couldn't accept that, and I agonized over it until I got a fever and collapsed. But I managed to resolve it, and that's how this story came about.]" — Kaga, S.
