Seren Dane

Seren was a surprise to both her parents, a Queen born into their family, one that hadn’t been born in generations to their family, not since Seren’s great great grandmother. She had been tortured and killed for not serving the regime at the time but her family had made to safety. Seren's family never belonged to the Hayllian Hundred Families. So there had been no protection for them. Despite that, there had been no protection for Seren--except for an unlikely source, from a dear of her father's, Lord Moretti, who was a patron of his parents work. He served as Seren's godfather, a second father to the girl as best he could.

Seren had a happy childhood with many friends and always someone her parents felt they could trust. Seren often drew the attention of people because of her Caste and her Birthright. After her first Moon’s Blood it became apparent she was a Black Widow as well. It also meant a sort of danger for young woman, there would be no safety for her--none at all. It had been Lord Moretti who begged Seren's father to send her away to a coven outside of Hayll. Far from the eye of the Queen of Hayll. To Dhemalan perhaps would be safer. He would like nothing better to keep her close to home but he feared the attention Seren was gaining. The only other option was to send her to a Coven. A Coven he knew to trust. They would train her for the next few years.

Seren's parents would be trained well and well taken care of and was lucky to finish her education before she was found by Lady Antigone's men. The Coven arranged for Seren's Virgin Night and following that to make her to appear to be Broken. That gave her very important instructions. Do not touch a Warlord Prince, for the Tangled Web is strong, a Warlord Prince darker than the Gray could break the web. It was for her good they did this.

She was imformed the following night--Her parents had been brutally murdered. Lord Moretti took Seren in--not as a daughter he wanted but as a servant, it wasn't safe for her. His own daughter was quite jealous.

The staff immediately took to the young woman, they understood instinct, seeing someone to protect. They loved her and maybe that's why they react badly to anyone new coming through, fearing they would hurt the balance that has formed.
