Awesome / Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance

• When Elincia asks Begnion's support in her efforts to reclaim the Crimean throne, Sanaki questions Elincia's royal status and asks her for evidence that she doesn't have and denies Ike's word on it as he is not a noble. When Sanaki reveals she knew all along of Elincia's status and that she was only toying with them for her personal amusement and the Begnion senators laugh in amusement at Sanaki's actions, Ike does not take well to this at all and has some choice words to say to Sanaki and the Begnion senators:
  Ike: What is the meaning of this? You knew Elincia was Princess Crimea? And you continued to humiliate her for your own entertainment? For some stupid game of wits and words? This is no joke! [...] Elincia's homeland is lost to her! Her family has been hunted down and killed by the monsters of Daein! And with nowhere else to turn, she endures mortal danger and terrible heartbreak to reach your door. And then you... you laugh at her?! Where is the humor in that? Where is your decency? You're horrible! You are all horrid people! You disgust me beyond words! And you owe Elincia a proper apology.
  • And even before that, he has this to say when Sanaki denies Ike's vouching for Elincia's claim to be the Crimean Princess because he is not a noble:
    Ike: I am neither a noble nor a knight. I have no connection with the palace whatsoever. And no matter how much gold I stood to gain, I would not betray my convictions. Elincia has paid us, yes, but nothing more than the standard fee to purchase our services as her escort. Nothing more. We have come this far only because we believe Elincia to be a woman of integrity. We would not sell our swords to a liar. I don't care how high and mighty you might be. I will not stand here and let you mock the bond of trust that ties us to Elincia.
• Marcia, whose older brother Makalov's debts, gambling, and general Scrappyness had caused her to quit her job, fight pirates, and fly all over the country to try to find him. And what does she say to him when she finally finds him and he pathetically tries to talk his way out of it?
  "STUFF IT, SPONGE-BRAIN!!! NO MORE LAME EXCUSES!!! FOLLOW ME!!! NOW!!!"
• Any time Stefan gets a conversation with a boss, he sounds more like he should be the boss instead. Like this line to the boss of Chapter 19:
  "If that's all the skill you have, sheathe your blade. You're not ready to challenge me."
• Leanne and Reyson restore the forest by singing.
• Reyson punches his captor, Oliver, despite being a pacifist Heron! You literally can hear the "Smack" his punch makes during the dialog.
  • And to make this scene even more awesome? His comments about the event to Ike later in the game in their Level B Support conversation:
    Reyson: When I bashed Duke Tanas's face, he only suffered a bloody nose, but it cracked the bones in the back of my hand.
    Ike: Holy...
    Reyson: Indeed.
    Ike: ...But it felt good, right?
    Reyson: Oh, yeah.
• When Lucia and Bastian have resigned to leaving Geoffrey behind as a decoy, Elincia refuses to stand for it. Lucia orders Ike to lead Elincia to safety, and he adamantly refuses. His reasoning? He still has a contract with Elincia personally as a mercenary, and is thus insistent upon doing the mission to save Geoffrey that even Geoffrey himself and his own sister believe is not worth it. The fact that Elincia and Geoffrey can get married in the sequel makes it well worth his trouble.
• Tauroneo's exchange with the Mad King Ashnard is a brilliant and particularly poignant illustration of the man's character and is severely reminiscent of General Duessel, the Obsidian, from The Sacred Stones.
  Ashnard: Is that you, Tauroneo? As I thought... You betrayed me after all.
  Tauroneo: ...
  Ashnard: In my father's time, there was a man who was one of the Four Steadfast Riders. That man grew old and useless, and retired from the front lines. How does his story end, you ask? Come, let us write it together.
  Tauroneo: Oh, my king... In all of Daein's history, perhaps no other ruler has used the talents at his command to the degree you have... But all the same, no other king has chosen a path so incredibly stupid.
  Ashnard: Heh heh heh... Will history judge me to be just or evil? We will not know until all of this is finished.
  Tauroneo: ...Now that I've confronted you and traded words with you, I have come to a decision. Throughout Daein, I, Tauroneo, will be known as the king killer. Come! Let me earn my name!
• Elincia's amazing Rousing Speech before the assault on Ashnard's palace is both this and a Heartwarming Moment. Especially when you consider how quiet she was throughout the entire game. Even Ranulf was impressed!
  • If you decide this way, Ike can give one as well. It's shorter, but just as awesome.
