Reina was born as Reina Lupu, born to a small noble family that was on the brink of bankruptcy and destitution... brought low by their enemies despite having capable people within it. Their capabilities however, primarily lay in military and administrative exploits, and not so much in diplomacy. Before they could be stripped of their rank, Reina met Jeremy, and apparently stole his heart. He ended up proposing to her some time after they met, he bailed out her families debt and brought them ALL to his domain. Now the Lupu family has found their new prosperity as a prominent knight family under the Lanoire Earldom. They had the opportunity for a higher position, but preferred Knighthood, as it play into their strengths better.
