Early Life
Lady Anne Josephine d’Arkent was born on the 15th of Owyn's Flame, 1836, only minutes before her twin brother, Joseph Alexander, within the halls of Sunholdt during a peaceful time within the Holy Orenian Empire. Anne shared her namesake with her mother, Anne Adelheid of Provins, and maternal grandmother, Princess Anne Caroline of Oren, who was named after the first Empress of Oren, Anne I. Her middle name was from her paternal grandmother, The Princess Imperial, Josephine Augusta. The union of Anne’s parents and their subsequent children was a topic of many whispers as the married couple was first cousins, through a shared grandfather, Emperor Philip II. As such, Anne and her siblings held strong blood ties to the Imperial Family.
At the age of three, Anne’s father passed away from causes generally unknown to the public, leaving her brother, Peter Augustus, as heir to the Duchy of Sunholdt. Following the birth of Anne’s youngest sibling, Johanna Eleanor, her mother temporarily disappeared from her children’s lives, leaving the future of Sunholdt in the hands of distant relatives and tutors. As many tutors set to work at educating the children it was noted that Anne and Joseph were nearly impossible to wrangle into a lesson due to their rambunctious behavior, and when they were able to pull the young lady into a lesson she didn’t graph much. One tutor was even rumored of saying that “A piece of cookware could outperform the girl in academia.” Due to this general lack of intelligence, Anne was pushed to develop strong social skills to allow for her to build a future.
From a young age Anne was seen frequently in court, usually at the flank of her grandmother, Princess Anne, The Princess Imperial, or her paternal great-aunt, Lady Maisie. The young d’Arkent had quite a vibrant personality within court in her youth, often getting into all kinds of trouble with her twin, whether it be attacking other courtiers or shouting during balls. As the twins grew older, Joseph began to receive serious punishments for his actions while Anne remained generally unpunished, causing a rift between the two which seemingly remains to this day. As Anne grew she continued to flourish within the courts and Oren as a whole, becoming a member of the Society of Saint James II, a short-lived religious organization led by her great-grandfather, Emperor Philip II. As she entered her early teens, many classist habits of her childhood which many expected to fade, only grew.
Career
By the mere age of 12, Anne had clawed her way into the Augustine Council under Charlotte of Aldersberg, which quickly collapsed only years later. During the Aster revolution, the teenage d'Arkent quietly declared her loyalty to both sides, allowing her to easily hold onto her position when Emperor Philip III was declared victorious. During her time as Lady Revels, Anne quickly developed many friendships within the court, allowing her to hold the position with little opposition. Throughout her years within the Court, she was known to host many pompous events within Aster Hall, which were considered by many to be elitist events that excluded many of the nation's common folk. The young girl was considered by many too be far to young for the position, standing alongside many aged and trusted nobles during her mere teens.
Anne held the position of Lady Revels beneath Empress Anastasia I till 1856, when she expierenced an unsuccessful Astercalia. Having been so ashamed of not finding a match, the then 20-year-old Anne fled to the south to escape ridicule.
Marriage
Following nearly a decade spent in the south, Anne finally returned to the Empire. Within a few months of her return, her engagement to The Count of Aldersberg was announced. It was assumed by many to have been an arranged marriage as the two were rarely seen together during their youth and were both entering their older years of adulthood. Following their marriage, the two were rarely seen apart for many years, appearing as a pair or not at all at many events. Over the course of their marriage, the couple gave birth to three children, all of which had some sort of lifelong illness, many rumors spread about the cause of the children's ill health, though the cause was never known to the public.
