- — Face Nemesis
Face Nemesis (Japanese: フェイス・ネメシス, Feisu Nemeshisu), also known as Silver Face, is a Faced Mechon in Xenoblade Chronicles. She is the Mechon controlled by Meyneth after Fiora is killed by Metal Face. She wields twin swords and, like other Faced Mechon, has the ability to fly.
Story[]
The first clear sighting of Nemesis
Face Nemesis is seen several times before the party encounters her. She is seen having a Homs implanted into her, and different portions of her creation in the Central Factory are also seen. These are very dark and mysterious scenes raising the question of who exactly pilots this Mechon, and when will Shulk meet her.
Nemesis attempts to reason with Zanza
Nemesis is sent out alongside Metal Face and other Mechon to Eryth Sea to attack Prison Island, and although she does not talk to them Metal Face mocks her. When the Mechon arrive at the top of Prison Island, Metal Face impales Zanza and attacks the party. Meyneth, from within Nemesis, speaks to Zanza, questioning how many more lives he will allow to die - but he does not recognise her. Shulk attacks her before a conclusion is reached and, as the Monado has been released, he is successful in slicing off Metal Face's right arm and breaking off Face Nemesis' torso plating. This reveals the pilot to be Fiora - or at least Fiora's body - and the Faces retreat for repair.
Fiora speaks to the party from Nemesis
She meets the party next on Valak Mountain after feeling a strange urge to see Shulk again, only to be knocked out by Metal Face and then collected by Egil after the party battle with Metal Face, who is revealed to be Mumkhar; a traitor and ex-friend of Dunban and Dickson.
The next time the party sees her is in Galahad Fortress, at the Face Maintenance Bay. After they defeat the four Mechon guarding Face Nemesis, they retreat, only to be knocked down to where Egil controlling the Gold Face is waiting in the Fortress Depths. It is shown that Egil has the ability to control any Mechon that try to disobey him. After he and Face Nemesis are fought, Meyneth asks Fiora to lend her strength so she can break free of Egil's control. After an intense battle between her and Egil, Face Nemesis falls off Galahad Fortress after destroying most of it. Shulk jumps after her, and the rest of the party are scattered onto the Fallen Arm.
The wreckage
When Shulk wakes up on the Fallen Arm after having a dream, he finds the Face Nemesis wrecked in the water nearby, with Fiora inside it. He wakes her up with some fresh water, and after a touching reunion, Fiora regains her memories of her life as a Homs and becomes a member of the party.
The ruins of Nemesis remain as the Silver Wreckage.
