The love was mutual, so she renounced the trees and married him. Their coutship was said to be brief and passionate She quickly became Patton's favorite relative. Patton once said that it was through her guidance that he became fairystruck. Unfortunately, the relationship between Ephira and Marshal was short-lived. It unraveled within months. Ephira was crushed. She had given up immortality to be with him, and he betrayed her. The anguish and betrayal poisoned her reason Ephira abandoned Marshal and disappeared, in turn, becoming obsessed with gaining her status as a hamadryad.She visited many for help, including Muriel and the swamp hag, who directed her to Kurisock the demon. Kuristock told her to cut down her tree with her own hands, burn it, and bring the last seed to him. Ephira obeyed him. Despite that her connection to her tree was broken, it was mendable, like all broken magic. Kuristock bound himself to the seed, but Ephira did not turn into a Hamadryad. She became something else. She was dark and spectral, tainted by demonic power, a negative of her former self. Merging with Kuristock only magnified her vengeful feelings She then returned to the manor, destroying Marshall and the others that lived there. Patton only barely got away, managing to take the key pages to the treaty from the register before he fled since then, she has always inhabited the Manor, only leaving on Festival Nights.
