Biography
Darian is the Prince of the three kingdoms in Ergenia, which is Greenfellt, Truscott and Cormel. Darian has 2 older sisters, Lea and Diana, and one younger brother, Barnabus. On the first week of his engagement with Aphrodite, he is suddenly abusive and suddenly makes her suffer. His mother assumes that it is because of his age, his father assumes that it is because of his lack of girlfriends. Since Darian didn't wan't to date anyone before, Aphrodite, being his fiance, makes him abusive and angry. But his mother is not sure of his father's theories. By the time Darian has been abusing his soon to be wife, his father decided to finally give him a title, which he never gained for his whole life, while his brother, and sisters gained them at the age of 5, which is the age where Ergenians recieve their titles. Prince Darian then recieves the title of 'Crow with unexpected behavior', for he was very nice before all this happened. He received the title of 'Crow' because his family's symbol is a crow on a white backround. His father soon dies in the book, making him king and having his mother, still, as the Queen, while he waits for his marriage with Aphrodite.
