Even with her dreams shattered right before her, Athelina quietly accepted her father's decision and married René.She knew that this countryside noble was a far better choice than the man her sister was forced to marry.At least by marrying him she could finally leave behind her father's second wife and her manoeuvres.She could finally enjoy a few years of tranquility.
So she married Baron René de Lorraine, who was 18 years older than her and left her father's realms to live in Poitou, relinquishing all her colorful dreams about the Royal Court and the life she could live there.
After 13 years of marriage folowed by her husband's tragic death, Athelina abandoned the quiet life in the back concessions and accepted the invitation to the Royal Court, despite the recent finding that she was pregnant.
At the Royal Court, her elegance and sad, melancholic figure attracted the young Prince's attention.
