===War===
Bella Mallard debuted in "Remnants of the People" at the age of ten in 713 during the War Plague. She was present at her great-grandmother, Emmeline of Capet's, bedside table when she died. 
The fate of Mallardia crumbled in 716 when Vulpus surrounded the capital and attacked. In "Lest We Forget," Bella and her family were forced to hastily flee Beakfield Manor. During the family's frantic escape, Bella witnessed Queen Vixen VII murder her father, King Swan XX. Despite this horrific event, Bella led her family out of Anatoidea. They fled to the northern countryside, where the Lord of Grasse aided them in crossing the border into Willie. The Mallards continued into Simeone and sought refuge at Vinesteeple. There, at only thirteen years of age, Bella was coronated as Queen Swan XXI. 
Queen Swan XXI attended the 719 Granite Bloc summit in "Two Moths Drawn to the Flame," hosted at Highland Castle. Though she attended with her mother, she independently represented fallen Mallardia at the meetings. Wise beyond her years, she impressed her counterparts with her passion and eloquence. 
Bella Mallard and her family were selected as passengers on the 725 expedition south in "The Good Must Associate." Because they were in Simeone at the time, the Mallards were shepherded across occupied Phantine along with hundreds of other passengers in order to reach Canis. 
Bella joined the passengers on the expedition south on November 3, 725, in "Bless My Homeland." They reached the Vulpus Dam on November 11, where Bella and her entire family managed to escape Cartonia despite the collapse of the Dam. 
After the passengers escaped in "Until I Die," Bella found the Vixen Queen's body floating in Lake Beyond. She alerted no one to the body's presence, and proceeded with the others on their long trek through the Expanse. They wandered for over a year until they reached the site that would become Toontown. Bella helped write the town's first constitution and insisted upon a democracy. She changed her surname to Becker to distance herself from her royal past. After Maximilian Walters was elected Mayor, Bella's uncle Bosworth was appointed as the first Councilmember from Sealand. The "Epilogue" revealed that Bella was elected as the second Mayor of Toontown, succeeding Max.
