“	What have I gotten myself into this time?	”	— Klein, on the siblings' "challenge"

Sibling Bonds (Japanese: 兄妹の絆 Siblings' Bonds) is the second paralogue chapter of Fire Emblem Heroes. This chapter takes the Order of Heroes to another unknown realm, where a number of characters from across the series have been brought in order to determine which sibling pair is the strongest.

This chapter was added to the game as part of an update released on February 27th, 2017, alongside its featured characters, and a number of related quests, which were available until the Blazing Shadows update was released on March 14th.

Plot

Main article: Sibling Bonds/Script

Klein of Etruria and Empress Sanaki of Begnion find themselves in an unknown realm, where they have been ordered to fight against the Order of Heroes, among whose ranks are the Askran royal siblings Alfonse and Sharena, in order to prove which sibling pair is strongest—despite Klein and Sanaki not actually being each other's siblings. The Askrans prove to be the victors of the first sibling contest.

The next challenge is against Reinhardt and Olwen, the sibling Mage Knights of Friege. Reinhardt, concerned for his sister's safety, tries to convince her to withdraw from the battle, but Olwen refuses, determined to fight alongside her brother. They too are defeated by the Order, and depart for their home world, the contract binding them now broken. Before leaving, they express their admiration for the battle strategy employed by the Order, and express their hope that they should never be parted.

The final challenge pits the Order against Eldigan, king of Nordion, and his adoring sister Lachesis. Lachesis, full of praise for her brother, considers him the winner of the contest by virtue of his appearance alone, but agrees to settle the matter in battle. The Order's bonds carry the day, however. Eldigan and Lachesis both thank the Order for freeing them from the contract that had bound them, despite Eldigan's knightly honor souring the moment slightly for him, and return home to their own world, as Eldigan had once promised his sister.
