Anne Lucifen d'Autriche



"I want to make a country where kids laugh all day long."

Anne Lucifen d'Autriche, born Anne Sui and better known as Queen Anne, is a monarch of the Kingdom of Lucifenia who succeeded her husband, King Arth, after his death.

Early Life
Anne was born in the Kingdom of Lucifenia in the year EC 457 and raised as a noble of the House of Sui. She had been good friends with another noble, Prim Rogzé. When they were young, Anne and Prim had met and fell in love with the prince of Lucifenia, Arth Lucifen d'Autriche. Ultimately, Arth chose Anne to be his queen and the two married with Prim's blessing. After Arth's wineglass was nearly poisoned and Prim was believed to be one of the suspects, Anne's childhood friendship began falling apart.

Around EC 480, the 23 year-old Anne and her husband met Elluka Clockworker. The royal couple became friends with the sorceress, signing the "Sanosun Bridge Oath" and recruiting Elluka as their court mage and King Arth's subordinate. Around this time, Anne's marriage was not doing well and Prim visited them after becoming the Queen of Marlon. In EC 485, Anne gave birth to twins: Riliane and Alexiel. About EC 491 her husband died due to an illness known as the Goula Disease and Anne assumed the throne until Alexiel was old enough to be crowned king.

Queen Anne's Reign
Prime Minister Presi Rogzé contested Alexiel's right to the throne, claiming Riliane should be the rightful heir instead. During the political strife, Anne asked Elluka for advice over the issue and sent Mariam Futapie to investigate. After Presi's treasonous intentions were revealed and the minister was killed, the Queen entrusted Leonhart Avadonia with her son to protect him from future assassination attempts. Publically claiming her child was dead, Anne raised her daughter Riliane on her own.

Some time later, Anne and Prim made a promise that when Riliane turned fifteen, she would marry Prim's son, Kyle. During her reign, she focused on improving and expanding national power, securing the territories acquired during her husband's military campaigns. She was beloved during her reign. Anne fell ill and succumbed to the Goula Disease in EC 499.

Legacy
Queen Anne was remembered as a wonderful monarch who ruled the Kingdom of Lucifenia benovelently. Her daughter, Riliane, assumed the throne in her mother's place and refused to be called "Queen" until she came of age out of respect for her mother. During Riliane's tyrannical rule, the massive kingdom Anne and Arth made began to decline with starvation and crime becoming rampant. The Lucifenian Revolution in EC 500 overthrew the Lucifenian Royal Family's regime and led to a Marlon occupation by Prim's son, King Kyle.
