## History

Mariana Rubenon was born on 6 December 1302, Mariana is the second child of Queen Goyara and King Margor II. Unlike her elder brother she didn't display any signs of mental illness during her early life. She had a highly active childhood and had a great musical talent. Mariana's parents would rarely see Mariana and if so it would be on a special occasion, this was because they were focused on the wars with Tiveria.

Originally Mariana was betrothed to the young prince Thomasus of Caloria, her parents intent was to use Calorian forces to launch a land invasion to Tiveria.

she spent at least a decade under house arrest in the Tower of Serva after her mother's plot against the Tremoras. She would be later moved to the Fort of Latria where she was released by her supporters after she had a claim to the Donish Isles, Mariana become Queen of Doneland but never returned to Corrupta.

When she was 8 years old, Tiverian's army appeared in the middle of the night knocking on the city gates demanding the attacks on Tiverian land to end. Her parents refuse and the Tiverians had planted explosives bellow the city causing an explosion destroying most of the structures. The Rubanons survived and locked themselves in the Hold of Dinamante. Her youngest brother passed away during this altercation as he wasn't mentally well and refused to eat or drink. Tiverians start to attempt on sieging the Hold but it was a very strong fortress. Mariana, her mother and her siblings were all hiding in the crypt and at some point Tiverian men managed to climb through the walls of the Hold and her father fought them along with his guards, he was wounded in battle and two day later passed away. Goyara becomes regent of Corrupta by justifying her daughter was still too young to become Queen.

At this point they started running out food and even their own people weren't happy and started joining the Tiverians, they all then escape through the city tunnels and Goyara takes the court with her. They flee south to the Glacia Islands.

They were accepted with open arms in the Glacia Islands since this was Rubenon’s ancestral home. However they were not prepared for the harsh conditions, they also weren’t prepared by how simply they lived and the harsh cold weather.

Her mother was still leading Corrupta from Glacia, however her mental state wasn’t well and she sent what was left of their military to invade Tiveria, it didn’t last too long because there was not enough food in Corrupta and people were fighting among themselves. Lucanio threatened to send forces to the Glacia if she didn’t stop it.

## Crown's Princess of Tiveria

When Mariana turns 16 King Lucanio I sends a letter demanding Princess Mariana marrying his son, Dioniosio. This was very controversial since Mariana’s faith was Drakonism and Dionisio’s was Vallarism. Goyara initially refused, but the Rubanons had put themselves in a very bad position since they were away in exile so they had no supporters in the foreign land. Goyara finally accepted when Mariana turned 17, Lucanio intentions are not completely know, some claim he wanted Mariana to marry Dionisio so his son would take the Corruptan throne and end all the wars without any more wars and some claim he was plotting to kill Mariana and Goyara but changed his mind.

Mariana and Dionisio met at the coast of Westria, Mariana was impressed with Dionisio knowledge for the arts and music, and he was impressed with her knowledge and her beauty, then they went to Dunmar by road.

Her mother was put in exile in an convent in Tremor and dismiss all her ministers. Lucanio did this to prevented her plotting against them. They married in Dunmar Cathedral and it was a very controversial wedding. Tiverians did not like Mariana since she was Rubanon and they have been hated since the early invasions. When they left the cathedral mariana got surrounded by a angry mob and she was forced to run back inside of the cathedral. They had to use the underground tunnel back to the tower. Mariana was kept in the tower most of the time and wasn’t allowed out since she was targeted.

Dionisio and Mariana spent a lot of time with eachother and really enjoyed eachothers company, but they did not love each-other, instead they agreed to carry on the bloodline and prevent any wars. Two years later when she was 18 she was pregnant, Lucanio threw a small banquet three days after and even invited Goyara.

## Bloody banquet

Behind her daughter’s back Goyara planned a assassination on the Tremora family and only told her daughter the day before to run away from the castle before the banquet starts but did not telling her why, Mariana flees the tower as her mother assassinated Lucanio and his daughter Catrina and even tries to assassinate Dionisio but was quickly stopped.

Mariana was found riding a horse in the early hours of the morning near the border of Silvestre, she is taken back to the Tower and sees her mom hanging from one of the tower gates covered in scars. This left traumatised Mariana for the rest of her life. Mariana was taken through the city and people started throwing objects at her, the guards rushed her as quick into the Tower.

She then came face to face with the Lords of Tiveria court in the Great Hall. Dionisio got claimed King of Tiveria and his mother was claimed Queen Regent, in court he pled his lords to let Mariana live and send her away to the Tower of Serva, where she would spend the rest of her life, majority of the Lords disagreed with Dionisio but his mother agreed with him and says she shouldn’t be executed for a crime she didn’t commit, against his own Lords, Dionisio sends her to house arrest, instead of executing her. This left his council very divided and left a lot of people angry around the Kingdom since Mariana’s mother had just assassinated his father, at some point people were wondering if had Dionisio plotted against his father.

## De-facto Queen of Corrupta (Exile)

Mariana was pregnant when she was sent to the Tower of Serve to be exiled, she gave birth to twins, Ashytyn, duchess of Corrupta and future King of Tiveria Lucanio II, during this time she spent four years educating them. Her children were sent away to the Royal Court when they were four years old. Mariana started developing weight problems at this time as she would be stuck in the tower for most of the days and also started developing mental health issues.

Many people in Corrupta still considered her to be the Queen however she never officially became one and never gave direct instructions to the kingdom. During this time Corrupta was under the Tremora rule and they annexed Corrupta into Tiveria, however Corrupta was quickly divided into four different states because the governing of Corrupta was very poor at this time since Dionisio on his own Kingdom’s rebellion and his mother mental health condition.

## Queen of the Donish Isles

After two assasination attempts on Dionisio, Mariana was sent to the coast of Westria to a underground dungeon where she would be twenty fours watched by multiple guards. Mariana became delirious and her mental health distorted massively, Mariana wanted revenge on her parents and wanted her Kingdom back, one of the Rectors at the fort felt back for Mariana and let her to wonder in the gardens of the chapel at least once a day, multiple of her spies were at the fort and they said the only way to do this was if she had a claim. Her half sister, Aldrea of Doneland, was Queen of the Donish Isles, Mariana sent a assassin to Doneland to kill Aldrea and was sucessefull. With Aldrea dead Mariana had a claim, she sent a letter to Dionisio demanding she would be given her title of Queen of Doneland, Dionisio declined and it wasn't until months later when a fleet of Glacian ships arrived and destroyed the fort where Mariana was, they took her to Doneland and proclaimed her Queen of the Donish Isles.

When Mariana arrived to Floton city she immediately altered Castle Hattron architecture accommodating her taste and changing it into a more Corruptian style.
