Background

Giliath Osborne serves as the representative of Erebonia's government. He was entrusted complete control from the emperor and therefore controls all of Erebonia's domestic politics, international negotiations and military affairs. His declaration that 'Our nation's peace must be built on a foundation of blood and iron' earned him the nickname of Blood and Iron Chancellor. He excels at grasping his opponents' weaknesses through information warfare and progress talks with favourable conditions through negotiations and behind‐the‐scenes maneuvering. From his time as a civilian employee of the imperial army onward he showed great talents, leading to high expectations from those surrounding him.

Around the age of 13, Osborne lost both his parents in an avalanche. Baron Schwarzer, the lord of 유미르, was a close friend to Osborne's father and decided to adopt the orphan into his family. His 5-year-old son, Teo, regarded Osborne as an older brother, considering him gentle and trustworthy.

At the age of 17, Osborne left Ymir to enroll at 토르즈 사관학교. Following his graduation, he became an officer in the 에레보니아 제국군. His outstanding work was quickly recognized and rewarded with promotions under supervision of General 반다이크.

Early military career

Hello there, beautiful. May I have a moment of your time?

Giliath Osborne in front of General 반다이크 and 올라프 크레이그. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III)

In those days, the army consisted of a great number of commissioned officers with a commoner background and Osborne was considered a young leader among them, praised for his unparalleled skills as both a commander, operator and considered a master of the imperial army's Hundred-forms Military Combat. It was believed he would carry the future of Erebonia's army. The noble faction caught wind of his growth, but could not express their interests publicly.

Giliath and 카샤 오스본 with their newborn son, Rean. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III)

At the age of 35, Osborne met his future wife, Kasia, while serving in a garrison on the outskirts of 에레보니아, but he felt initially embarrassed to approach her because of an age gap of ten years. General 반다이크, however, served as a matchmaker and brought the two together, which served as the first stepping stone toward their marriage. Around that time, Osborne started to hear a voice, but with no one to discuss it with he decided to keep it to himself, locking the voice deep within his heart. After their marriage, the couple was blessed with a son whom they named Rean, in S.1186. Soon thereafter, Osborne was promoted to brigadier general and enjoyed peaceful days both at work and at home.

Attack on Osborne's house in the outskirts of 헤임달. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III)

Osborne's peaceful life came to an abrupt end when General 루돌프 아란도르 and his faction of nobles within the imperial army orchestrated a false flag operation to manufacture a war with Liberl in order to make a name for themselves in battle. Osborne caught wind of their schemes but could do little more than warn his fellow officers.

Arundel's faction responded by having what resembled a 엽병단 attack his home on the outskirts of 헤임달. Late at night, they had lit his house on fire. Osborne sped home, and found Rean mortally wounded, his heart penetrated by debris. Kasia, with her dying breath, begged him to make sure at least Rean would survive the attack.

이슈멜가 greeting Osborne. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 IV)

Screaming out loud, Osborne begged to goddess and fiend alike to save his son. 이슈멜가 responded, stating it had been waiting for those words for two centuries. Osborne—the reincarnated soul of emperor 드라이켈스 라이제 아르노르—and Ishmelga made a pact: Osborne sacrificed mind and body to serve as the 기동자 of the Ebon Knight, Ishmelga. In return Ishmelga ensured Rean's survival by transplanting Osborne's heart into Rean's body, a process Osborne was able to survive due to becoming an 불사자 via his Awakener pact.

The next morning, the corpse of Kasia and some of the jaegers were found in the burnt down house. Osborne himself and his 5-year-old son were nowhere to be found. In total, Brigadier General Osborne remained absent for the three months during the 하멜의 비극 and the first 90 days of the 백일전쟁.

• 
  Giliath Osborne praying for Rean's well-being. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 II)

After having his heart transplanted into Rean's body, Osborne rang his childhood friend Teo; it was the first time in three years they had verbally spoken to each other:

I want you to take in a child. You must cut all ties with me and never speak a word of this to that child. I'm sorry, Teo. You're the only one I can turn to.

He informed Teo about the location where he had abandoned Rean. Teo dashed toward the location, realizing how heartbroken Osborne was as a single father. To Rean, he muttered:

Rean... I pray you grow up strong and healthy. ...Oh, Aidios... If you're listening, hear me now. Please, allow this child...

Due to the 리벨 왕국군's sudden counterattack, the Imperial noble officers' Armored Divisions were defeated, and the war came to a standstill. Just when General 반다이크 considered employing the main division, Brigadier General Osborne suddenly returned to the army.

During his three-month absence, he came into contact with 우로보로스. Through them, Osborne was introduced to the 검은 공방, one of the 13공방 affiliated with the society. In S.1203, after the 도력 정지 현상 in 리벨, his partnership with Ouroboros ended, and he secretly gained de facto control over the 검은 공방 behind the society's back.

Hamel investigation

With General Vandyck's introduction, he had an audience with Emperor Eugent III who granted him full authority to investigate the Hamel Tragedy. For this investigation, Osborne negotiated with Queen 알리시아 Ⅱ세 of 리벨. For the sake of peace, Queen Alicia positively responded to the proposed cease-fire agreement within a day. Ten days after Osborn's return to the army, the war ended with a cease-fire agreement between 에레보니아 and 리벨. Upon his homecoming, Rudolf was arrested and executed in a secret court martial. Half a year later, late S.1192 or early S.1193, Giliath was rewarded for successfully wrapping up the investigation within a month by being elected by Emperor Eugent III as the next chancellor: making Osborne the first commoner to assume this position. Through this appointment, he was also raised to the noble rank of count; according to 클레어 리벨트, this promotion was the inspiration behind the 아이젠 그라프 호 train's name, literally meaning "Iron Count".

발칸 left behind as the sole survivor of 아룬 가름. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적)

Threatened by Osborne's rapid rise to power, on behalf of the noble faction Duke 헬무트 알바레아 hired the 아룬 가름 jaeger corps to attack Osborne as a warning in S.1194. Osborne saw through their plot however, ambushing and massacring every member of Arngarmr save for its leader, 발칸. Days later, Teo introduced Osborne to one of his students, 루퍼스 알바레아. Osborne knew that Rufus was responsible for devising the Arngarmr attack and, in turn, Rufus was impressed by Osborne's intelligence and abilities upon finally meeting him, hoping to surpass him, that he eventually agreed to become the primary member of the Chancellor's 철혈.

Chancellor of Erebonia

Since his appointment as Chancellor, Osborne has spearheaded the reformist movement in Erebonia, expanding the railway system centered around the capital 헤임달 throughout the rest of the empire and moved to improve the standard of living for the common people while checking many of the unfair privileges of the nobility.

• 
  Explosion near the railway leading into Jurai. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 II)
• 
  Osborne visiting the mayor of City-State Jurai. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 II)

In S.1194, City-State Jurai accepts 에레보니아's proposal to get connected to its railroad network. A mere year later, the railway is bombed. Under Osborne's leadership the Imperial government refuses to immediately restore the railroad and instead informs Jurai to wait while criticizing its lack of security measures and expressed their worries if Jurai were to drag down Erebonia's own level of safety. Jurai's stocks plummeted and the inability to find a suspect for the explosion caused disorder in the city state. Chancellor Osborne then visited the city-state, suggesting to leave the restoration and safety in the hands of Erebonia and its imperial army, making it a member of Erebonia's growing empire. The mayor was aware of Osborne's intentions and refused the offer. However, the other members of the city council were growing impatient and desperate; coupled with the mayor's refusal, his popularity plummeted and they ended up overriding his decision and joined Erebonia. Jurai merged as a Special Economic Zone with Erebonia the following year. The mayor in question was none other then 크로우 암브러스트's grandfather, and this incident contributed to his death.

This is but an instance from Chancellor Osborne's expansionist policy that saw the annexation of many smaller countries bordering Erebonia, though on paper all of those are recorded to have happened without any bloodshed. Bolstered by this new source of revenue he set about reforming the imperial army, greatly increasing military spending and extending his control to around 70% of it in S.1203.

The first to join was 렉터 아란도르, the son of the warhawk who sealed Osborne's fate, whom he met during his investigation of the 하멜의 비극 in S.1192. Osborne acknowledged Lechther's ability to foresee various situations and that he was in danger from his father's co-conspirators, who wished to silence him. Lechter would later take up a position as junior staff member at the newly established Intelligence Division The second one to join is Rufus in S.1194, although his identity was kept a secret from the other members with only his position as primary member known.

Two years later, as Lechter and Rufus were working as Ironbloods, Osborne learned that an old friend, Rieveldt, had died in a suspicious accident. Wondering if the curse was the primary cause, he was going to investigate the matter personally when he ran into Rieveldt's daughter, Claire, who was the only survivor. Osborne noticed her enhanced cognition and allowed her to deal with the problem himself before offering her a spot in the Ironbloods, which she accepted. The invitation was offered because Osborne thought the least he could do for her father was to watch over her until the time came.

Sometime after recruiting Claire, 밀리엄 오라이온 joined the Ironbloods. Osborne knew that she was a homunculi created from the Black Workshop, but noted that despite her innocence, she was quickly adjusting to human emotions and softening both Claire and Lechter. Despite knowing her inevitable fate, Osborne stated that he would be overjoyed if she could restore the richness of life that had been robbed from the two.

영웅전설 하늘의 궤적 SC

Osborne is first mentioned by his title in 영웅전설 하늘의 궤적 FC, and by name and alias in 영웅전설 하늘의 궤적 SC, where it is mentioned that Osborne recommended Emperor 유겐트 III to sign the Non-Aggression Pact proposed by Queen Alicia of Liberl between their two countries and the Calvard Republic.

Behind the scenes, however, Osborne is working with 우로보로스 to take advantage of the 도력 정지 현상 that hits Liberl and southern parts of Erebonia, by stocking up on non-orbal weapons like gunpowder rifles and steam-operated tanks. He sends the 3rd Armored Division under Lieutenant General 젝스 반다르 to offer their 'assistance' to Liberl, but this ploy is foiled by Prince Olivert and Brigadier General 카시우스 브라이트.

As a result of Zechs refusing to enter Liberl, Osborne punished him and the 3rd Armored Division by sending them to the 노르드 고원.

영웅전설 하늘의 궤적 the 3rd

Osborne in Liberl

In the spring of S.1203, a month after the 도력 정지 현상, the collaboration between Giliath Osborne and and Ouroboros ends. He secretly assumes control over the 검은 공방. That same spring Osborne also brings an unannounced and unofficial visit to 리벨 and 크로스벨, walking in on Prince Olivert's discussion with Queen 알리시아 폰 아우슬레제, Crown Princess Klaudia and Brigadier General 카시우스 브라이트 that Osborne's goal of the steam tank invasion was never to occupy Liberl, as there would be no benefit to doing so for Erebonia. Instead, he interpreted it as a demonstration of the imperial army's capabilities to respond even in such a crisis, which Osborne would use as leverage in future diplomatic endeavors. It is at that moment that Chancellor Osborne enters the throne room accompanied by 렉터 아란도르. Exchanging greetings while explaining his presence to his Liberl hosts Osborne requests a private discussion with Olivert which the latter accedes to.

Provided a room by Queen Alicia, Osborne makes an unexpected offer of a political alliance with Olivert against the nobility of Erebonia, pointing out their shared belief that the aristocracy will bring ruin to the Empire if allowed to continue. He sidesteps Olivert's probing questions about the neighbouring states Osborne has annexed, which he points out occurred willingly on the part of those states though Olivert notes the rather convenient timing of worsening conditions in those countries that spurned their agreement, and his connection to Ouroboros, which Osborne doesn't confirm explicitly but clarifies simply that he will use whatever means to bring about his reforms.

Olivert chooses to reject the chancellor's offer, conceding that while he does agree with Osborne's sentiments regarding the nobility, the chancellor's methodology frightens him. He then finally confronts Osborne on whether or not he realizes the tumultuous upheaval his actions will cause, to which the Osborne laughs off and essentially states that he's counting on it, much to Olivert's chagrin.

Osborne politely departs the room, stating that his offer of an alliance is still on the table. He then leaves to catch a public airship for a secret visit to 크로스벨 in order to shore up Erebonia's political allies in the state, while facing increased efforts by Calvard to undermine their influence there. When Osborne is talking to Lechter on the deck of the airship, they are surprised by a sudden announcement on the speakers followed by an approaching 아르세이유. As it comes right next to them with Olivert aboard its deck, he casually tosses a bouquet of roses at the Chancellor Osborne and shoots them in mid-air, letting the petals float into the winds around them. While Lechter is incredulous at the extravagant gesture, Osborne just laughs loudly, amused by the prince's show of defiance. During his brief stopover in Crossbell, Osborne meets up with Speaker 하르트만, representative of the imperial faction in the Crossbell government.

Exchange between Osborne on the 아이젠 그라프 호 and 린 슈바르처 (영웅전설 섬의 궤적).

On 30 August, S.1204, Osborne and Prince Olivert make their way to 크로스벨 시 for the 서 제무리아 통상회의 aboard the 아이젠 그라프 호 as the imperial government's representatives, accompanied by their respective bodyguards, 렉터 아란도르 and 뮐러 반다르. When the Eisengraf passes through 켈딕 station, Osborne and Rean manage to exchange gazes despite the train's high speed.

Osborne introducing himself to the Special Support Section. (영웅전설 벽의 궤적)

After his arrival, Osborne and the other delegates attend the opening ceremony at 오르키스 타워 with where the conference will be held the following day. During the conference's intermission, Osborne sends an invitation to the members of the 특무지원과 to meet with him in the Erebonian waiting room. They find Osborne staring out the window, overlooking the city, and complimenting on the view as a testament to mankind's achievements, comparing it to the 고대 제무리아 문명. Osborne continues that such a technological achievements cannot yet be called a utopia, citing the 리벨 아크 which appeared above Liberl as an example of both mankind's potential and foolishness. He startles the group by reciting the Intelligence Division's knowledge concerning the D∴G 교단, and alluding to the true identities of both 와지 헤미스피어 and 랜디 올랜도.

Sitting down with the group, Osborne conducts an intention survey by bluntly asking how long the SSS thinks Crossbell will last in its current state, rendering them at a loss for words. Osborne acknowledges 노엘 시커's importance of will power, he proposes a scenario where two wills end up clashing, concluding that in such a case the smaller will is devoured by the bigger one and help to strengthen it, leaving the SSS speechless. Osborne deftly responds to 로이드 배닝스's example of the 백일전쟁 that while the strength of the will should also be considered, he wonders if the citizens of Crossbell possess that same kind of pride and determination as those in Liberl. He ends the conversation by stating he refuses to give them a commendation for bringing an end to the Cult Incident like President Rocksmith did, as that would be inappropriate and upset the Erebonian nobility.

When the Trade Conference resumes, Osborne interjects the matter of Crossbell's security arrangements. Citing the recent Cult incident and the harm it caused to visiting Erebonians, he lambasted their handling of the situation and questions their ability to address these concerns to safeguard its citizens given its unstable government structure. To highlight this point he brings up the lack of amendments to Crossbell's state laws over the past five decades, illustrating its inherent weakness compared to the strong monarchies governing the Erebonia, Liberl or even Calvard's constitution. As such he proposed disbanding the 크로스벨 경비대 entirely, using their ineffectiveness compared to both the imperial and republic militaries as further justification, allowing other nations to station their forces inside the state to take over its security duties instead. He graciously volunteers the imperial army for the task while fending off objections from both Princess 클로디아 폰 아우슬레제 and Prince Olivert.

President Rocksmith chimes in by arguing they could moderate Osborne's proposal instead by simply reducing the CGF's budget and standing forces, while allowing the republic to take over the 벨가드 문 and Erebonia the 탱그램 문 instead, in order to rapidly respond to any future security crisis. Osborne is quite amenable to the suggestion and passes his compliments on to President Rocksmith. At that point, however, the conference is interrupted by an attack of the 제국해방전선 and Republic Anti-Immigration Group, targetting Osborne and President Rocksmith, respectively. While Osborne and the other representatives are escorted to safety, the Osborne-hired 엽병 corps 붉은 성좌 kills a group of terrorists they managed to drive into a corner.

영웅전설 섬의 궤적

Erebonia's political climate of worsening factional divides gives rise to a terrorist organisation known as the 제국해방전선, which, starting S.1204, continuously causes unrest behind the scenes with the goal of undermining and eventually eliminating Osborne, all while the Imperial government was preparing for their participation in the upcoming 서 제무리아 통상회의 in Crossbell that summer.

On 28 June, S.1204, an incident in the 노르드 고원, where the ILF orchestrates an attack using a group of 엽병 dropouts on imperial and republic outposts along the border in an attempt to stir up an armed conflict, saw Chancellor Osborne intervene by dispatching 렉터 아란도르 to directly negotiate with 칼바드 and diffuse the situation. He receives a follow-up report from Captain 클레어 리벨트 on the situation, conceding to President 새뮤얼 록스미스's request to hand over the mercenaries responsible to the Calvard while discussing security arrangements with Claire regarding the upcoming Summer Festival in 헤임달, taking her advice to regards to the placement of the other Ironbloods to cover the rest of the Empire while leaving her to oversee the capital with the RMP (though not before also recommending using VII반 as well), before dismissing her to take a meeting with 헤임달 Governor 칼 레그니츠.

Following the Imperial Liberation Front's attack on Heimdallr during the Summer Festival and their attempted kidnapping of Princess 알핀 라이제 아르노르, Osborne interrupts the meeting between the imperial family and VII반 in 발프레임 궁's second reception hall. After expressing his relief at seeing Alfin well and giving a skeptical Prince Olivert his assurance that the ILF is being hunted down being and that security arrangements for their trip to the Trade Conference have been taken care of, he introduces himself to the students of Class VII who are visibly intimidated by his presence. As Osborne advises them to strengthen their bonds in preparation for the tumultuous times ahead, Rean grabs his chest in discomfort immediately afterwards.

Osborne during his national address. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적)

Following President 디터 크로이스's declaration of Crossbell's independence, Erebonia's failed attempt to invade the state with the 32nd Armored Division and 아이온 Type-α's display of power by 'removing' the 갈레리아 요새, Giliath Osborne held a national address at the Dreichels Plaza in 헤임달:

We stand today in the face of an uncertain future. All of you, I'm sure, are aware of what has transpired in recent weeks. Crossbell, our erstwhile province, has defiantly declared its independence...and as its parting shot, frozen the assets entrusted to them by the hard-working men and women of Erebonia! As we have moved to safeguard our national interests, armed conflicts have broken out on our borders. Our enemies point to this as an example of Erebonian aggression, but nothing could be further from the truth. We acted in accordance with our duties as a colonial power. All we have done, we have done as is our sovereign right. The Imperial hand may be firm, but it is fair. These traitors, however, have shown the world that they are neither. With an unknown weapon of mass destruction, they have annihilated Garrelia Fortress... The stronghold that has long protected the very gates of this country! I ask you, brothers and sisters of the Empire, do we allow such an odious act to go unpunished? Do we sit idle as the pride and dignity of our great nation is spat upon and trampled underfoot?! We cannot. We must not. And we WILL not! With blood and with iron, we shall mete out justice! ...In such tumultuous times, we must set aside our differences. We must look past the ideologies that divide us! I will not deny the rift that has grown between the Reformist and Noble Factions, especially in recent times... But how childish, how insignificant such squabbles seem when the enemy marshals its strength beyond our borders! I have met with His Majesty the emperor, and have secured permission to embark on the course we now must. Thus, in the name of the emperor and as the representative of the Imperial government, I hereby proclaim...

Osborne the moment he gets shot. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적)

Before being able to finish his speech, he is shot in the chest by Comrade C, shortly thereafter revealed to be 크로우 암브러스트, leader of the 제국해방전선. He appeared to be aware of C's true identity in what was thought to be his final words before dying.

영웅전설 섬의 궤적 II

The 귀족 연합 immediately began their coup and hold the government hostage, starting a civil war that became known later as the 10월 내전. Amidst Heimdallr's occupation of the Noble Alliance, Osborne's body was taken into custody by the Imperial Guardsmen until the corpse disappeared some unspecified time later.

Osborne's introduction in 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 II.

Osborne had actually survived the assasination attempt, but remained hidden in order to maintain the guise that he had been killed. With Rufus serving as his inside man regarding the Noble Alliance's intelligence, he learned of everything in an instant. Osborne remained in hiding for two months, when VII반 defeated Duke Cayenne and Rufus revealing his loyalty to Osborne. With Rufus pointing his sabre at 비타 클로틸드's throat and his servant 알티나 오라이온 holding Duke Cayenne to the floor, Osborne then entered the room, surprising everyone.

He states his intents to diminish the Noble Alliance's control, to take over 우로보로스's 환염계획 and to have Rufus resolve the situation in Heimdallr within a week before moving forward to the occupation of 크로스벨. Rean who grabs Osborne's collar in anger over the pointlessness over Crow's death minutes earlier, he reveals that he is his father and expects Rean to assist him as the hero whose brave deeds allowed him to reclaim the imperial capital.

영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III

Main article: Northern War

In January, S.1205, the Noble Alliance pledged full collaboration with Osborne and his 제국군 invades and occupies Crossbell within a single day without bloodshed. On January 14, 헨리 맥도웰 signs a treaty with Erebonia, resulting in the loss of Crossbell's autonomy. Then, in March of that year, Osborne instates Rufus as Governor General of Crossbell, who subsequently announces Crossbell's merger into Erebonia.

For his next plan Osborne turns north by submitting a liability claim to 노던브리아n authorities for the 북쪽의 엽병's arson at 켈딕 during the 10월 내전. The Northern Jaegers occupy the state's parliament and naturally reject the claim. In response, Osborne's government negotiations a deal with the last rebellious faction of the 귀족 연합, General 오렐리아 르귄, to invade the northern state in exchange for the provincial armies to maintain a certain degree of autonomy. Following a swift invasion, North Ambria attributes itself to Erebonia before Emperor 유겐트 라이제 아르노르 III announces its merger late S.1205.

During the Summer Festival Celebration at 카렐 별궁 on 17 July, S.1206, 하멜의 비극 survivor 애시 카바이드 invades the imperial parlour to wailingly ask who to kill for his curse to subside while holding Emperor 유겐트 라이제 아르노르 III and Osborne at gunpoint. Ash opens fire with a 베른 사-made gun at the emperor, fulfilling the Black Record prophecy both Emperor Eugent III and Osborne were intimately familiar with. The following day, Osborne holds a national address to state he interpreted the attack of a "칼바드 spy" as a declaration of war from their neighbouring republic and announces the National Mobilisation Law.

Osborne and 검은 알베리히 after summoning the 검은 성배. (영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III)

Later that day, in collaboration with 검은 알베리히 of the 검은 공방 and 우로보로스, which pledged its loyalty to him, he initiates the manifestation of the 검은 성배 at the location the Karel Imperial Villa used to be. Inside, it is their aim to sacrifice 알티나 오라이온 to sublimate into the Sword of the End to slay the defiled 성수, the 알그레스, and invoke the 거대한 황혼. When Prince 올리발트 라이제 아르노르 and his crew aboard the 커레이져스 attempt to stop them, Crown Prince Cedric and Osborne allow Alberich to set off the explosives that had been planted on the ship by Copper Georg.

Their procedures are interrupted by VII반, during which not Altina but Millium is sacrificed and turned into the Sword of the End, after which the 린 슈바르처 piloted 발리마르 goes berserk and unconsciously kills the defiled beast, initiating the Great Twilight. The other present 기동자s summon their 기신s to stop Rean from attacking Osborne, who then reveals himself as the Awakener of the Ebon Knight, 이슈멜가, the results of the pact he made 14 years prior to save Rean.

Osborne forcefully although temporarily forces Rean him regain his senses. Analogous to a father reading a child a bedtime story, Osborne tells Rean that they will write the end to "this wretched fairy tale, in ink, black as despair". He warps away with Rean and has him locked up in the 검은 공방, alongside Valimar and the Sword of the End.

영웅전설 섬의 궤적 IV

Following the National Mobilisation Law, Osborne instates his former superior, Marshal 반다이크, as supreme commander of the 제국군 who officially announced 요르문간드 작전 as the largest military force in history in preparation on the war with 칼바드. Throughout the preparation for the war, Osborne himself seldom appears in public and continues to manipulate 제무리아 from the shadows.

On 17 August, S.1206, VII반 manages to infiltrate the Black Workshop in an attempt to free Rean, but runs into Osborne, 검은 알베리히, 아리안로드, and other 우로보로스 agents on their way out. Wielding a sword similar to the Sword of the End, he battles Rean and his students before their reinforcements intervene and they still manage to find an opening to escape.

Two days later, just after the start of the 요르문간드 전역, Osborne meets Class VII for the last time at the core of Tuatha De Danann, which would serve as the setting for the last 상극. Re-introduced as the Ebon Awakener, Osborne the Ironblooded (鉄血のオズボーン), he summons Valimar as his previous Awakener, together with Millium as the Sword of the End.

He thanks Valimar for looking after Rean and is grateful that he is able to meet again thanks to the blessing she received from Arianrhod. He reassures Rean that both he and 테오 슈바르처 are his fathers, just as 루시아 슈바르처, 카샤 오스본 and, in a certain sense, 리안느 샌들롯 are his mothers.

After Rean and his friends manage to slay Ishmelga-Loge and subsequently its thought-form, Osborne appears one last time to have a brief but heartfelt talk with his son. Before exchanging farewells, Osborne reminds Rean of the letter he received from 윤 카파이 a couple of months prior:

In this time of turbulence, become that flashing blade which illuminates the darkness, even if for the briefest moment. I believe you and those comrades whose souls are intertwined with yours are capable of this.

영웅전설 시작의 궤적

A hollow copy of Osborne is fought by the 철혈의 아이들s in the 진 몽환회랑.

Emperor 유겐트 라이제 아르노르 III has an audience with Rean where he grants him what was left of Osborne's belongings. Osborne had burned most of his possessions before the war, but the Imperials were able to recover a photo that was stuck between the burned memoirs, which Eugent gave to Rean. It is revealed that his name is carved on the grave of his deceased wife by Rean.

The memoirs provide Osborne's personal insights into various events he was involved in, primarily the recruitment of the Ironbloods and the events that occur during the Cold Steel arc.
