## Synopsis

Having earned his place as a true hero, Naofumi faces threats that are as political as they are monstrous. This season sends assassins after Raphtalia, mistaken for a usurper, and pulls Naofumi into the turbulent affairs of distant lands where he’s hailed as a savior by some and hunted by others. It’s more of the party loyalty and hard-won vindication the series does well, set against escalating conflict and looming Waves.
