Queen Ligea is the regent, Neptune the consort. She’s the first ever queen of Mareia, as the split between kingdoms was done by her father. She’s Teredor’s twin and she does have magic capacities, being a Caster without a determined title. She’s a caring mother, but she has focused more on Tressa and Tritannus than in Nereus, as she felt he got enough with Neptune’s attention and to prepare him to be the next king. She feels she’s partially to blame for Tritannus’s attempts on her husband’s life, but Tritannus himself assures her she’s not at fault for anything.

Neptune was a former knight, and became very obsessed with raising a good royal after the birth of the twins, focusing exclusively on Nereus and ignoring Tritannus pretty hard. Tressa didn’t even blip in his radar at all. He was always harsh on Tritannus for distracting Nereus off his duties or just generally trying to liven up the castle, and admittedly slightly hated him for messing with his whole plan for the perfect King. He’s the only one to vouch for Tritannus being executed after the whole deal is over, with literally everyone else wanting to just send him to prison again.

Tressa on her part has been training as a warrior, and has a good handle on swords and axes. She was left to her own devices more often than not, and so she never got the full picture on why Tritannus wanted to kill her dad. She got along with her brothers well enough, sometimes sparring with Tritannus and talking with Nereus over stuff, but most of her time was spent traveling the kingdom and seeing what could be done to help, like a wandering knight deal.
