Abest
 Abest is the het ship between Abel and Est.

Canon
Abel and Est met the War of Shadows and fell in love. The day after the war ended, Est moved from Macedon to Altea to live with Abel, and both retired from their military positions and started a weapon shop. However, the Archanean Empire kidnapped Est and used her as a hostage to force Abel into fighting his allies for them, including his former liege Marth. Fortunately, Est can be rescued, and the two reunite to put an end to the War of Heroes. After the war concludes, though, Est makes the decision to leave him in her ending should he survive, and a devastated Abel leaves in search of her. Alternatively, if one of them are killed, the survivor will still leave their homeland unable to bear the loss.

AlmBerkut
"It’s over, Duma! Berkut, Fernand, Mila… Even my father. They and countless others, lost to us— tainted by your precious power. But that chain of tragedies ends here."

- Alm, Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia

AlmBerkut is the Family ship between Alm and Berkut.

Canon
Berkut is a major antagonist in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. He is Emperor Rudolf's nephew and heir apparent to the throne. As news of the Deliverance resistance movement spreads across Zofia, Berkut announces his plan to squash the rebellion before they can take the castle. Much to his humiliation, he is defeated by Alm. Believing his loss against whom he regarded as a mere farm boy to be a fluke, Berkut retreats to the Rigelian Palace to request troops from Rudolf to defend the sluice gate. Before Berkut leaves, he is given a magic mirror by the witch Nuibaba. He accepts it despite being disgusted by the Duma Faithful. After the Deliverance defeats him a second time, Berkut breaks the mirror in his desperation to defeat Alm. The spell in the mirror causes the undead to start pulling Alm's soldiers down with them. It is only thanks to the pendant Celica gave Alm before they were separated that they survive. Berkut retreats once more and curses out Alm in the palace.

As the Deliverance encroaches Castle Riegel, Berkut requests to battle Alm again. The emperor dismisses Berkut's request, citing that he has already failed twice. Berkut breaks down, and is helpless to witness Alm murder his uncle. It is at this point that Rudolf reveals to Alm that he is his father, thus making Alm and Berkut cousins, and Alm the true heir to the throne.

A distraught Berkut wanders into an altar for the god Duma, dwelling in his despair over Alm seemingly taking everything with him and having lived a lie this whole time. Berkut's fiancé Rinea, tries to cheer him up by saying that Alm is a kind and generous man who will surely forgive him. This seemingly innocuous comment pushes Berkut over the edge. He states that his dream was to dispatch Alm and become the hero and emperor of the entire continent of Valentia, and falsely accuses Rinea of knowingly keeping this from him in a sick conspiracy against him along with Rudolf, Massena, and all the rest. In a blind rage, he sacrifices Rinea to the mad god Duma for the power he believed Alm had stolen from him.

Shortly after this, Alm and his comrades venture down into the Tower of Duma themselves to fulfil Rudolf's dying wish of slaying Duma. They encounter a mortally wounded Fernand (Berkut's second-in-command), who warns them that Berkut has changed. Despite this, Alm is initially happy to see Berkut alive and well at the altar. He offers to bury the hatchet and work together. Berkut, however, dismisses Alm's feelings as pity, and reveals that he has done the unthinkable by sacrificing the woman he loved for power. Alm is horrified at Berkut's actions that reveal his cousin is beyond the point of return. Berkut even proposes to the witch Rinea that they will hold their wedding atop Alm's funeral. Alm and his army defeat the corrupted Berkut and Rinea, freeing them both of Duma's curse. Knowing that he is on death's door, Berkut begs Alm to put him out of his misery and accept his title. Alm declines, saying that he never desired conquest and only wanted companionship. With the help of Rinea's purified spirit, Berkut realizes that his pride had blinded him to a happy life and apologizes to her. Afterwards, Berkut's last words are a promise to Alm that he will put an end to the gods so that no one will ever again become corrupted by divine power like he did. Berkut gives Alm a Prayer Ring from his mother before passing away. Alm begs for Berkut to stay alive and mourns his death.

Later, when preparing to finish Duma off once and for all, Alm lists Berkut among those he is fighting for.

AlmRudolf
"You’ve…done well… I’m proud of you…my son."

- Rudolf, Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia

AlmRudolf is the Family ship between Alm and Rudolf.

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia
When Alm was born and bore the Brand, Emperor Rudolf sent Mycen to run away with the child to raise him as his own. Once Alm comes of age, the Deliverance resistance movement invites him when they can't convince Mycen to join their quest to take back their country of Zofia from the Rigelian Empire. Alm eventually commands the army all the way to Rigel Castle himself. While the other members are eager to topple who they believe to be a tyrannical emperor, Alm admits that he can't bring himself to hate Rudolf. Once the army defeats him and Alm lands the finishing blow, the dying Rudolf reveals that he is Alm's true father, that he became the continent's scapegoat to unite the people and so that his son could become a hero, and that Alm must slay Duma in his tower. Alm expresses guilt that he just killed his father, but after some counseling and explanations from Massena and Mycen, he pulls himself together and descends into Duma Tower to fulfil his father's wish and save all of Valentia.

Almthilda
 Almthilda is the het ship between Alm and Mathilda.

FAN FICTION

Alphonica
 Alphonica is the het ship between Alphonse and Veronica.

Canon
Alfonse is the prince of the kingdom of Askr, the leader of the Order of Heroes, and alongside his younger sister Sharena and Anna, an Askr commander. Veronica is the heir apparent to the Emblian Empire who is afflicted by the blood curse of the dragon Embla, which compels her to destroy Askr and its royal family under Embla's control.

Originally an antagonist, Veronica's relationship with Alfonse and the Order of Heroes has since become far more amicable, with Veronica appearing more often as an ally from Book III onward when they first form an alliance to defeat Hel, the Queen of the Realm of the Dead, after saving her from being sacrificed to the Flame God Múspell in Book II. They later also team up to find her older brother Bruno--who is also a friend of Alfonse and Sharena's--and stop an invasion from Fáfnir in Books IV and V respectively. In Book VI, Veronica begins to succumb to the aforementioned blood curse. When she senses this happening, she tells Alfonse and the others to flee while they still can. In return, the Order of Heroes and Bruno come up with a plan to save her from the curse and the sinister Letizia.

Supplementary media such as the Chibi Playhouse shorts strongly imply that Veronica has feelings for Alfonse, though no hints have been given as to whether or not Alfonse reciprocates these feelings. In a crossover event with the Dragalia Lost game, they set their differences aside to work together to return to their world after finding themselves in the world of Dragalia Lost.

Fanon
Alphonica originally began as a "crack pairing," where fans would only ship them ironically, due to the fact they were enemies. This changed after Book III revealed that Lif and Thrasir, two of the book's antagonists, were revealed to actually future versions of Alfonse and Veronica, respectively. The book also implied that Lif and Thrasir have a romantic relationship, or at least a very close platonic one, as evidenced by the two teaming up as a Duo Hero in the game's 2021 Valentine's banner, where their present selves also appear, albeit as separate Heroes alongside Alphonse's parents. The ship thus became an extension of Lifsir (Lif/Thrasir) and vice versa to many fans, with support of Alphonica gradually increasing with the release of Book VI, which focused on Veronica's blood curse with Embla.
