- “I'm going to die! But...it's okay. If I can die for Lord Roy, it would be my only wish now. You, hiding over there! Come out! Our love is eternal, and can never be broken!”

Roylarum is the het ship between Roy and Larum from the Fire Emblem fandom.
Canon[]
In Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, Larum is a dancer, originally from Etruria and the adopted daughter of Douglas, one of the Three Etrurian Generals. She was on the run from the corrupt influence of the Etrurian rulers in the Western Isles on the continent of Elibe. There are two ways for Larum to meet Roy, depending on the player's choice when crossing the Western Isles.
If the player visits the right village in Chapter 9, Roy goes west toward Caldonia and in the next chapters and Elffin is recruited instead of Larum. However, she still plays an NPC role in the army by giving the player auguries, although this means she can't form any support with Roy from this point.
If the player visits the left village or none of the two northern villages in Chapter 9, Roy goes north toward Mount Eburacum. In the next chapter, after defeating Nord, Roy rescues Larum from a dungeon, where she was imprisoned. There, Larum asks Roy to free the Western Isles from Etruria's control. She joins the army and aids them with her dancing skills.
Larum is very eager to be close to Roy in their supports, much to Roy's discomfort and annoyance, and he tells her to leave him alone. But when she does, their A support has Roy realize he misses her. Larum returns to his side, coming on quite strong, but while Roy grumbles about it he doesn't seem to mind as much anymore.
At the end of the game, if both have support A, Larum marries Roy. The Pheraeans protest their future Marquess's marriage to a dancer of unknown origins, but Larum manages to win them over with her charisma and energy.
Fanon[]
Larum isn't one of Roy's most popular ships, but is well-liked by Larum fans who enjoy her outgoing personality and the way she interacts with Roy. Fans of lord/dancer pairings gravitate towards this one as well, and so do those who like lighthearted and comedic supports with some heartwarming moments.
However, the couple is also heavily criticized by people who find Larum's forwardness overbearing and pushy, given that Roy isn't fond of it and asks her to leave him alone. Even their A support where Roy admits to missing her presence doesn't change their minds. Not to mention that the ship is not liked by RoyLili fans due to them believing their ship is the true canon and that pairing Roy with anyone else is wrong.
