Марі

A mysterious girl who appears in Ren's dreams. She is clearly not Japanese, but her background and true name are unknown. For all we know, she might be just a figment of the young man's imagination. A maiden of the twilight, she sings a loathed refrain with a pure, angelic smile. Could that scar across her neck have been left by a guillotine?

Margueritte Breuli was born in the 18th century at the height of France's Reign of Terror. On the day of her birth, a man was set to be publicly executed via the guillotine, however, the headsman did not arrive. While the crowd wished for the man to be executed, no one actually wanted to commit the deed themselves. At the urging of Marie's mother, who was beginning to go into labor, Marie's father eventually took up the task. At the moment he killed the man, Marie was born.

For the first ten year of her life, Marie was completely mute. Then, without seemingly any cause or warning, she began to relentlessly sing of filling the guillotines with blood. It was at this same time that her curse manifested, decapitating anyone who touched her. Her father abandoned her while her mother went insane. She was eventually deemed a witch and executed via the same guillotine she had been born under 17 years prior. Upon her death, her unnaturally powerful soul ascended to the level of a Transcendence God, residing alone on the Twilight Beach for eternity.

Some point after this, Mercurius, under the alias of Cagliostro, who was searching for a way to die, found Marie and instantly fell in love with her. He then began manipulating events in an attempt to die in her embrace and have her take his place on the throne.
