Biography
In 259 CE, Aquilus left for Rome to avenge his father Lucius' death at the hands of their former ally Caïus Fulvus Vultur, a member of the Order of the Ancients. Upon his return to their villa in Lugdunum, Valeria was glad for her husband's safe arrival, and the two shared a moment of intimacy.
Afterwards, Aquilus led Valeria to their villa's basement, where he explained the functions of the Ankh, an ancient artifact previously stolen by Vultur. Upon Aquilus' touch, the Ankh started to play a message from Lucius, recorded moments before his death. However, the couple were then startled by a group of Roman soldiers, who had orders to arrest them for Aquilus' murder of Vultur.
Valeria and Aquilus were bound and escorted to Rodumna to face trial. As the escort was making its way through a forest, it was ambushed by Aquilus' cousin and fellow Hidden One Accipiter, in an attempt to rescue his family. In order to prevent Aquilus from escaping, one of the Roman soldiers swiftly slit his throat, and Valeria was forced to watch her husband bleed to death. Accipiter subsequently routed the soldiers, and rescued Valeria.
Taking Aquilus' body with them, Accipiter and Valeria traveled to safety, and set up camp later that night. Valeria took the Ankh and explained to Accipiter that she had forgotten how to use it. Accipiter denied Valeria's request to take the artifact with him, saying that he was too busy coordinating the Alamanni forces in battle against the Romans, and asked Valeria to take it instead and hide it in a safe place.
