Well I'd somewhat imagine in the timeline Finn probably broke off after the Thracia incident and rejoined later. Afterall theres never anything to say where he did go and not go, plus I would think it wouldn't have been unusual after it IS a army so theres bound to be smaller factions he could have been guarding Thracia.
You really think that when Hannibal joins all of a sudden his entire army would dissapear? Actually don't answer that...

No. It's explicitly stated that Finn went after Leaf's coronation ceremony. And it goes against FE4 canon to have Finn leave before Barhara...
And FE4 said nothing about Finn. Probably because there's almost nothing suggest FinLache in that game, and it's a free pairing system. Does he have other motives to go except that one? =P

I'm still willing to go with my original idea of Beo/Lach = Delmud and Finn/Lache = Nanna. Its the most probable and interesting one... On another note.....
Maybe Finn wasn't looking for Lachesis in the Yied Desert? Perhaps he was looking for Ethlin and Cuan's remains in hopes of giving them a proper burial? He is pretty persistant after all.

That thought had occurred to me, but you'd think Finn would've told LEAF if he's going to look for Cuan's and Ethlinn's bones instead of disappearing off alone.
I wouldn't be too surprised if it's BeoLache for Delmud. FE4 kinda intended him to be her main predestine, fangirl dreams or no.

Thats not completely necessary....Finn has completed everything has nothing to do...he could ahve just plain asked for a leave and dissapeared.
It isn't that unusual plus knowing Finn's sense of honor remember that Finn blames himself for everything that happened to Cuan and Ethlin so he could have decided as a last act since he had done everything to search for them alone. He may have felt he would be imposing on Leaf if he told him, cause I hardly think Leaf would allow Finn to go alone into the Yied desert and Finn also may have wanted to do this himself.
And on a completely random note... I love the Ch-17 theme tune in FE7 *_* Do you happen to know what it is listed as in the sound test?

If anything, there's one feeling Finn has that goes higher than his honor : His guilt. He does have honor to be sure, but when it boils down to it, the forces that motivate him are very simple. Imagine what he would feel if he comes back and Leaf finds out Finn's gone to look for the bones of the parents he'd always dreamed of? Leaf wanted to know about his parents too, and I don't think Finn-sama is so self-centered as to care so little for his prince=foster son's feelings.
And he didn't ask for leave. He just....went. And nobody knew til he's gone.
If he went looking for Lachesis....there's a very simple reason why he wouldn't tell anyone. Nanna.

And this is why we all love Finn so much, that sense of honor and guilt he has just makes him so much more interesting than all the other characters.....
We can speculate as much as we want but thats the whole point of why they never have a definite tie between games in FE its to leave room for improvisation.
EDIT: Nanna knows Lachesis is her mother and calls Finn 'father' in FE5 so why wouldn't he tell her? Excuse me if I'm being ignorant but I don't understand too much.

yes. That is why I love my Finn-sama. ^^ The other characters have their share of angst, but their feelings are never as intricate yet basic and down-to-earth as him. ^^
1) Nanna wants to know what happened between Finn and Lachesis. Finn obviously isn't too comfortable with the idea. 2) Whether she is his natural daughter or not, Finn doesn't look like he wants Nanna in the Yied Desert. At all. It could be a fruitless hunt, and she's better off making strong sons *ahem* in Lenster. 3) Nanna would mean Delmud, and Finn doesn't look like he's comfortable with that idea either.
My head told me I have more reasons, but I can't think them out at this moment. =P

Just wondering but did Finn and Delmud have any dialogue when Delmud joins?

No. And this is the subject of many a fangirl interpretation. I have mine (see Fanfiction.net), but I've seen some quite amusing ones. =P

Would you consider yourself on the level of fangirlism that'd you call yourself a 'otaku'?

An otaku would mean every inch of my room is covered with my dearest Finn-sama. Unfortunately, I don't have that luxury, so no.

Looking for Cuan and Ethlin's bones would be pointless 17 years later. There's nothing left of them by then. Plus just cause he finds some bones in the desert doesn't mean those are Cuan and Ethlin's bones. There's no DNA testing back then.

Howabout the crest of Lenster?
Or maybe perhaps the torn clothes? Or maybe a grave of horse and people and a dragon or two?
And Summer would you given the chance?
