History
Early History
Sebastian and Mary Stuart lived in the castle as children, until Mary was sent to a convent for her protection.
Season 1
Trumpets sounds at the entire Fresh Court arrive to greet the Scottish Queen who will be arriving soon. Francis makes his way down to the courtyard with his older brother giving him a snide smile at the whole situation. Before Mary can greet the Royals she is stopped by his brother Francis who cuts across the grass to meet her where she stands. Francis and Mary soon after walk arm-in-arm down the line towards the King and Queen of France for a proper introduction.   I'll find your dog! Mary dog Stirling begins barking at the forest and heads off into it. Mary runs after him but is caught and stopped by Bash. Bash warns Mary not to go into he forest, as it is a dangerous place. Mary informs him her dog has run off, and Bash promises to find him, and bring Stirling back to her. Mary looks upset but is happy to see Bash who has found her dog Stirling for her. He asks if she is doing OK here at Court. She tells him she has her friends, and Bash tells her to be careful while here.  In the throne room Queen Catherine and King Henry are talking about their 2nd son future wife. Mary and her ladies-in-waiting have already arrived and are standing by Bash. his brother is ordered to go, to show respect to the young Lady Madeleine who will be traveling by ship to meet with her new fiancé. Prince Charles asks if Bash can come along too, and Catherine immediately shuts his request down.
Mary suggests she comes along too since she too was once sent far away from home as a young child. Catherine tries to them convince Henry that maybe Madeleine should just meet them all here since it's a several hour journey. Henry laughs and thinks Mary going is a fine idea and sends them all on their way. Hours later Bash rides up on his horse and orders everyone to stand down. Explaining that the English ship took on water and was helped by the French. They have sent their envoy Simon Westbrook ahead to court to explain the situation already.
 Once tensions die down Madeleine presents herself as a perfect lady, but the shy Charles stands back. Mary goes forward to introduce herself to the young girl and explain who she is. They walks over with her to Charles who gives her a flower he found on the ground and they both greet each other more proper. The next day at the picnic Sebation and Mary are talking, and Mary askes how could Colin MacPhail have escaped the dungeon and he informs her how. He assures her they will have trouble finding him as he’s had a big head start and the French fear the forest. He promises to go look on her behalf. Bash does and finds Colin strung up in the woods by his feet at sundown. He goes bck to get Francis's help and while they are there they find themselves surrounded by Pagan and Bash chant words to help them escape. Later Francis question if he's a heretic. Bash watches as Mary dances seductively with his brother, they are soon interrupted, and she now danced with Tomás of Portugal. Bash sees this upsets his brother so mockingly asks "Why he doesn't dance like that" and Francis barks at him.   I'm good to ride! Later that night at the Boating Party Bash is with Lady Kenna as they both drink about their troubles. Soon after Francis tells him to ride on to tell 6 companies of men to leave for Scotland. Bash is still a little drunk but does it anyways as he wants Mary to stay in France. The next day Mary Bash sees Mary as he is carried over to Nostradamus who is inspecting his wounds and puts him to sleep. He was attacked while on the road. Queen Catherine confronts Mary Stuart. Telling her she warned her of the unrest that would result from changing the line of succession. Once The Vatican legitimizes Sebastian, King Henry will take off her head, and her other sons, Prince Charles and Prince Henri will be orphans. Mary reminds her,t ey have a father. Catherine asks how much attention does she think they'll get from him as he cavorts with his new bride Diane? As for Bash, as soon as he takes power, he will face unrelenting pressure to do away with them, Mary promises to never let that happen. Mary and Sebastian walked together through the busy court hallways. Taking note of Catherin’s preparations for her own funeral. Catherine was quite annoyed with the flower preparations. Mary soon heard the royal trumpets. Sebastian told her it but it meant a Royal visitor had arrived. It was Mary's own mother, Marie de Guise. Mary made a beeline for Sebastian's working area, she then informed Bash they needed to get married immediately. For her mother, Marie would stop them. She knew when her mother was lying, or trying to manipulate her. And if they didn't get married right away, she would force Mary to wed Francis. In the hallway, Sebastian informed Mary of his plan to find a church. She wanted to go with him, but Bash didn't think it was a good idea. He promised her if he wasn't back by noon, it meant he had found a priest and she was to ride out and find him. With luck, they would be married by sundown. Miles outside the French court, Sebastian stood waiting from Mary in a graveyard. Mary rode up and separated the two brothers when she saw them fighting. Frances blurted out that Nostradamus's visions had changed, and they could now be together. Then Bash asked Mary to be with him. Mary stayed quiet not sure what to do. Later that day in The Throne Room, Henry informs everyone that the Queen of England is now dead. He demands Mary pick a husband, but she tells him to stop bullying her into making a choice. Mary has a very difficult task ahead of her. She enters Sebastian's room and tells him of her decision: she cannot marry him. Bash tries to reason with her, reminding her that while she was with him, she could be whoever she wanted to be, and was wild and free. He adds her that he would never put anyone, or anything before her and that he loves her. Mary begs him to stop, knowing how true his words are. But he demands she say why she is leaving him. Mary finally confesses that although she loves him, she loves his brother more. Bash skips the wedding ceremony, but before he can leave, he is caught by his father. He has his hands bound behind him and brings him to the bedroom, forcing him to watch Francis and Mary's consummation. Francis and Mary continue to make out during their bedding ceremony. Royals and nobles surround them, including Mary's Ladies-in-Waiting. Everyone stays quiet as Sebastian enters. Both Mary and Francis make eye-contact with him, but look away and continue kissing. Mary walks into her chamber to see Sebastian standing there. He claims that he was attacked by guards that were supposed to escort him to a ship to Spain. He believes that Francis ordered his assassination. Mary is quick to defend her husband, so Bash begs her to find out who she's married to, for her own sake. Before leaving, he tells her to meet him in a place where they first kissed. The next day, Mary asks Bash for help in getting to Lola in time, who is about to undergo a dangerous procedure. Mary needs to take a shortcut through The Blood Wood, and Bash is best able to navigate the woods. They get there in time and when Mary and Lola walk out of the barn, Mary warns Bash that he should be in Spain. He claims that he cannot, because he loves her, but Mary dismisses that. |
Season 2
Mary and Sebastian mostly keep away from each other, spending most of their time together in the company of Francis. However, in one particular episode, Bash comforts Mary as she realizes that her rank is poison and drives anyone who gets involved with her to their destruction, Bash being the first to walk that road.
Season 3
Mary Stuart, King Francis and Sebastian were all wondering why King Antoine is back at French Court. Worried he'd learned of Francis illness, as a Bourbon, he'd have the best claim to the throne after Prince Charles. If he rallied his Protestant supporters, he could replace Charles as king. Bash asked to handle him. Francis told his brother that he knows he blame him for what happened with Kenna, but he would not "handle" King Antoine.
Mary Stuart tells Sebastian how she remembers first coming to court. She recounts how when she was stepping out of the carriage, everyone lined up to welcome her. She was so nervous, but at least she had her friends, Kenna, Aylee, Greer and Lola.
Season 4
Sebastian sent a message to Mary Stuart through another man, David Rizzio who said he was guided by his spirit and he was sure Mary was in peril.
After Mary Stuart son, Prince James is returned to her, she is reminded of the prophecy Sebastian sent her through David Rizzio. That her heir would unite both Scotland and England in peace.
