- Louise – “Lord Pent, I... I will protect you as well. Along with the child inside me... our child.”

Pentlouise is the het ship between Pent and Louise from the Fire Emblem fandom.
Canon[]
Pent is a sage in magic and successor of Athos, to the point that he was formerly called the "Mage General of Etruria", before Cecilia took the title. Louise is an expert archer on foot and fulfills the role of a Sniper. Before the events of the game, both were already married and engaged.
By joining Eliwood and Hector's army, Pent and Louise already start with A-support with each other, which ensures that both can only have B-support with other characters.
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade[]
Some time after assuming the mantle of Marquess of Reglay, Pent searched for a wife and gathered up to twenty women as possible candidates for marriage. Of these women, the one who won his hand was the then-fourteen-year-old Louise, whose pledge to use her skills with the bow to protect him earned the scorn of the other women in attendance, but won him over with her sheer honesty. The two were married soon after. Much later, Louise would tell this to Rebecca in one of their support conversations.
Roughly three years prior to his mission with Eliwood, Pent was appointed the Mage General of Etruria, and soon after took on the then-twelve-year-old Erk as his apprentice. However, the demands of his job frequently took him away from Castle Reglay, leaving Louise to take care of Erk.
During one of his visits to Nabata, Pent searched the desert to find an unidentified artifact buried in it, but after finding it he was accosted by the bandits Paul and Jasmine, who demanded he give it up. He refused and fought back against their band, with the assistance of Eliwood, Hector and Lyn, who had just arrived in Nabata themselves. After the battle, he took them to consult with Athos, the "living legend" they sought. When Athos gave the three the mission to find the Shrine of Seals, Pent and Louise volunteered to join them on this mission to Bern, with Pent being intrigued by the prospect of fighting Nergal.
Around the same time that they arrived in Bern, Pent and Louise also had a diplomatic obligation during their visit: to attend the festivities surrounding the coming of age of Bern's Prince Zephiel. Being that Louise was distantly related to Zephiel through his mother, Hellene, Pent and Louise paid a visit to Hellene and consoled her over the crisis facing her. Hellene offered to listen to the group's request, on the condition that they found the missing Fire Emblem. After a visit to Bern Keep led to Eliwood and his group being attacked by a Black Fang army led by Vaida, Pent and Louise volunteered to actively fight alongside Eliwood and gave him a Heaven Seal. He and Louise continued to serve under Eliwood, Hector and Lyn for the remainder of the conflict, even blowing off a need to return to Etruria and file a report on the Shrine of Seals. By the time of the final battle, Louise had become pregnant with their first child.
Athos died shortly after Nergal's defeat, and Pent chose to resign from his post as Mage General to allow himself time to focus on continuing Athos's research. Pent chose Cecilia as his successor in the role. Afterward, he and Louise largely retreated from public life in Etruria, and within a year of the battle with Nergal, Louise gave birth to their first child, Klein.
Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade[]
Although Pent and Louise do not appear directly, they are mentioned during the support conversation between Dieck and Klein.
When Klein was four years old, the Reglay family attended a gladiator match at the largest arena in Aquileia, during which Klein escaped into the arena pit and was attacked by a lion. He was saved by Dieck, then a young gladiator, who was severely scarred by the lion for his efforts. Out of gratitude, Pent and Louise hired Dieck into their service and began to treat him as a member of the family. Two years into his time with them, Dieck abandoned the Reglay household after rumors and gossip about their treatment of Dieck started to circulate around Etrurian nobility. During this time, Louise gave birth to their second child, Clarine, who was still very young when Dieck left.
While both of their children were actively involved in the Disturbance of Bern as soldiers fighting under Roy, Pent and Louise paid little attention to the conflict even as the rest of Etruria was embroiled in the Revolutionaries crisis.
Fire Emblem Heroes[]
Pent and Louise are two of the heroes that the player can summon separately via the Breidablik using orbs to help Alfonse and his sister Sharena defending their kingdom Askr from the Emblian Empire. As in their original game, Pent and Louise can develop a bond via support. They can raise their level of support in the following ranks: C, B, A and S if they stand together in the gameplay. Both have two variations at the moment.
There was a special event for both of them, named Bridal Belonging, in which Pent and Louise were depicted as lovebirds and wedding couple, on May 21, 2019, alongside its featured characters, and a number of related quests, which were available until June 21.
Fanon[]
This section is in need of major improvement. Please help improve this article by editing it.
This is one of the minor ships popular in the fandom of The Blazing Blade or simply Fire Emblem GBA. Their fans claim that the two had one of the best developments in their relationship and the fact that it is canon from the start of the games made it one of the popular pairings, albeit without much hype.
This is one of the few ships that has almost no criticism, because the game always keeps them together with their support for each other.
