The Commoners' Marriage
It wasn't a wedding of grandiose, but a privately kept ceremony between the small houses of Darkwood and O'Rourke. Afterwards the couple was left on their own with little help from their families, it was what sparked the merchant spirit of the duo. Swiftly kicking off their business as traders, going from one end of the continent to the other. A few months passed when Maria had already been pregnant, being the first of her many pregnancies which were just to come. In approximately fifteen years, the pair had a bustling household of ten children. A year after the birth of the last children, the twins - Anne Cassia and Elizavetta Joanne, the parents had gone on usual trading journey from which they never came back, thus they were presumed dead.
