These are the concept arts for my own fanfic of Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, inspired by "Together" written by Bay. The title is called, "Emerald Firefly". The story is basically Azure Gleam with mix of Verdant Wind at the end. Main relationships in this fanfic are F!Dimileth and M!Edeleth.
The concept art of young Byleth and young Beleto. The dagger on top left is Byleth’s dagger with the symbol of Knights of Seiros on its scabbard, which she gifts it to Dimitri. The dagger on bottom left is a dagger with royal blue hilt, golden filigree in shape of the flower, and its scabbard made out of iridescent white opal, which Dimitri gifts it to Byleth. The wooden amulet on top right is Beleto’s hawthorn charm amulet which he gifts it to Edelgard. The pendant on bottom right is Edelgard’s red garnet pendant which its golden part is shaped after the two headed eagles from Adrestian Empire banner, and the red garnet’s pear cut is akin to crest of Seiros.
Design sheet of Byleth during War Phase. Showing front and back view. Design of her pristine white armor is to distinguish from her twin brother Beleto who wears blackish grey armor. Her armor being colored white represent her affinity to church. Her high collared cape is inspired by Saint Seiros, though Byleth’s cape has houppelande sleeve homage to her default mercenary cape. Also, whereas underneath of Seiros’s cape is colored crimson, underneath of Byleth’s cape is colored pink. The dagger on her hip is a gift from Dimitri during their childhood. Her hair has grown longer during two years time skip. Her hair braids with pink and white ribbon weaved in is akin to Sothis’s ribbon hair braids. Her braids are secured together with long pink ribbon and golden heart shaped hairclip, shown at the back of her head.
Front view detail of wearing order.
Layer 1: Short sleeved undershirt with cleavage window homage to Byleth’s original mercenary undershirt except midriff section is fully covered, mid-waist white short skirt containing pink thick border hem of the skirt and thin golden line right above it and pink waistline, and opaque tights.
Layer 2: Her white dress and skirt underneath her armor is inspired by the dress of monastery nun, though the tight fitting sleeves part is inspired by the sleeves of female bishop class’s dress.
Layer 3: White and gold corset armor, heart shaped tassets, couters, vambraces, cuisses, heart shaped poleyns, greaves (lower leg armor), and sabatons with pink high heeled soles (just like how Edelgard has her sabatons with red high heeled soles).
Layer 4: Her white high collared cape is inspired by Saint Seiros, though Byleth’s cape has houppelande sleeves and pauldrons over it, which is homage to her default mercenary cape. Also, whereas underneath of Seiros’s cape is colored crimson, underneath of Byleth’s cape is colored pink. She also wears a medallion with its shape being a head of lioness on her chest mirroring the lion head adornment on Dimitri’s chest armor, with pink tassel another shout-out to her default mercenary design. The dagger on her hip is a gift from Dimitri during their childhood.
Back view detail of wearing order.
Layer 1: Short sleeved undershirt with cleavage window shout-out to Byleth’s original mercenary undershirt except midriff section is fully covered, mid-waist white short skirt containing pink thick border hem of the skirt and thin golden line right above it and pink waistline, and opaque tights with white and gold vambraces, cuisses, heart shaped poleyns with two pink belted stripes behind, greaves (lower leg armor), and sabatons with pink high heeled soles (just like how Edelgard has her sabatons with red high heeled soles).

Byleth during War Phase with Dimitri beside her for comparison. Her armor design is feminine counterpart to Dimitri’s armor such as the medallion on her chest shaped like a head of lioness mirroring the lion-head adornment showing on Dimitri’s chest armor, and asymmetrical design of pauldrons with one of them having heart shaped adornment. As same reason as Dimitri, Byleth was told that wearing this armor raises their army’s morale.
