D'Angeline Nobility - The Great Houses - House Courcel

Sidonie de la Courcel

(Reference key found here.)

*Spoilers for Avatar, Scion, Justice, and Mercy*
Sidonie de la Courcel is Ysandre and Drustan's older daughter, the Dauphine of Terre d'Ange. She resembles her mother, save that her hair is somewhat darker (a burnished gold) and her eyes are Cruithne black. Sidonie is nearly two years younger than Imriel; her birthday is in the spring. Imriel's birthday is later in the same season (KS 313). For her first assignation in the Night Court, Sidonie goes to Jasmine House. Her closest confidante is Amarante of Namarre, the daughter of the Head Priestess of Naamah's order.

Sidonie at first dislikes Imriel, but after he saves Alais's dog, Celeste, and dives atop Sidonie thinking to protect her from a boar, her feelings begin to change. When Imriel returns from Tiberium, they embark on a passionate, utterly secret affair, which remains hidden (except to Mavros and Amarante) until Imriel returns from Alba after Dorelei's death. At that point, the affair is revealed, and Ysandre pitches the hissy fit of doom. Imriel then leaves yet again, this time for Vralia and justice, and Sidonie stays at home to win the support of the priesthood and generally win at every confrontation with everyone. Sidonie and Imriel have a brief respite together, but Carthage's magics come between them, separating them for the last time. In the end, Sidonie's utter trust in Imriel allows them to break Carthage's spell, and Ysandre allows them to wed, because they did in fact just save the country.

*Spoilers for Naamah's Kiss*
Sidonie and Imriel have three children. The oldest is Anielle (a girl), and she inherits the throne of Terre d'Ange. From her, the rulers of Terre d'Ange are: Queen Josephine and King Gautier, then Daniel de la Courcel and his first wife, then Daniel de la Courcel and Jehanne nó Cereus. Daniel's heir in Naamah's Kiss is Thierry de la Courcel.
