Maria was born
in a time when her parents were both trying for the Embrace, and so she was
ignored. After they failed and became bitter, she was treated badly. After
she learned hedge magic all by herself and showed it to the clan elders,
she was set for life. After her parents found out they raised a stink, so
she was dropped off with the first available vampire cousin to await a proper
age to become a vampire.
That happened to be Lucian. Uncle Lucian seems to be a nice enough fellow, a little more eccentric than even the rest of the clan, but what can you expect from a Giovanni who lives in Transylvania?
