Remember That I Love You

She has no known or mentioned family in the series, but works closely alongside Kane Bell in their hunt for his daughter, Elara Bell. Though not family, and certainly unrequited, Rhea feels a duty to Elara.

**Season 3**

Rhea is introduced to the Sovereigns of Basilisk when she shows up in their territory with the presumed-dead Kane Bell, father of Ares, Wynn, Quill and Elara. When her and Kane's initial plan to take Elara back to The City of Targo with them is disputed by Elara's brothers, she quickly establishes an alliance with Basilisk's enemy clan, Blood Riders to form an advantage and gain some leverage over the situation. They use Riders' labs to send out a virus to Basilisk using one of their hostages that Blood Riders have kept alive and subsequently manage to wipe out over 100 of Basilisk's people. At the same time the Noah-led Blood Riders announce a war on Basilisk leaving the Sovereigns with a heavy set of challenges to face: the virus killing their people, the approaching war, and The City of Targo trying to capture Elara. When Rhea and Kane manage to ambush Ares and Fenn on their way to safely reach Elara and Kodiak, they threaten Ares' life as a tactic for getting Elara to surrender to them. Elara is taken into Rhea's capture along with Sovereign Kodiak who they use for their advantage over Basilisk, and are transported to Blood Riders' labs where Rhea and Kane begin to put Elara through the phases of The Alteration. As Blood Riders are set out to massacre Basilisk in the war, Rhea and Kane put all their focus into Elara and getting her to survive the process. However, in an unforeseeable change of events, Noah Rule - the king of Blood Riders - forms his own alliance with Nobel Sovereign Riverly and assists Kodiak on his escape with Elara from the labs. Unable to secure Elara in their possession after the majority of their guards have been killed, Sol, Wynn, Ares and Quill arrive at the labs and manage to pull Elara out of The Alteration and take her and Kodiak back to Basilisk, once again leaving Rhea without her Heir.

**Season 4**

After having lost possession of Elara, Rhea grows frustrated and willing to reach new depths to recapture her. When Rogue Rule - King again of Blood Riders - is taken hostage by Basilisk, Rhea knows that Basilisk have unfortunately levelled the playing field. However, following Elara being pulled out of The Alteration too soon, she begins to face the dangerous consequences her brothers were warned about. At camp, Elara experiences visions - some of which violent; some of which mean she can't distinguish between reality and hallucinations, and this eventually leads to Basilisk becoming dependant of The City of Targo's resources. When Rhea, her people, and Blood Riders arrive at Basilisk under the threat of launching an attack to get Elara, Noble Sovereign Sol Riverly meets Rhea outside of Basilisk's gates and unveils her hostage. To counter Rhea's warnings, Sol calls *checkmate* and kills Rogue Rule - king of Blood Riders - in front of his people *and* Rhea's, knowing that Rhea's inability to stop Sol from killing him would sever Blood Riders' alliance with The City of Targo.
