While her increased libido is the result of a Blood Skill obtained as a result of her marriage, Menisi still prefers her current station as a wealthy [Lady] with influence, claiming it to be "freedom" as opposed to being a [Princess] of Calanfer.

==Background ==
== Background ==
Though she was known to fight with her mother, her sharp mind meant she was considered for inheriting the throne over her older sister [[Shardele du Marquin|Shardele]]. Driven by her interest in divination and fortune-telling, Menisi sought out [[Rastandius]], the greatest [Soothsayer] in the world, in hopes of glimpsing the future. The [Soothsayer] offered her a way—through a potion known as the Faye’s Eyes. When the [Princess] drank half of it, she was overwhelmed by visions of countless futures in which her mother brought misery to every one of her children. After forcing Rastandius to flee, Menisi plotted [[Ielane du Marquin|Ielane's]] murder, but was caught by Dame [[Vensha]]. Within the month, she was forced to marry Grand Duke Naodin of Nomaudrel.<ref name=":1">{{VERef|Vernoue (Pt. 1)}}</ref>

===Volume 10 ===
[[Vernoue du Marquin|Vernoue]] pays a visit to her asking for her side of the truth, seeing that her asking was an honest request and not a ploy by their mother, Menisi decides to tell her story. Bringing Vernoue to her secret chambers she gives her the remaining half of the Faye's Eye potion that she once took, awaking from the potion Vernoue at last ask for help.<ref name=":1" />


After the skirmish between [[Ailendamus]] and [[Erribathe]] ended, the two [Princesses] enter [[Nuvityn|Nuvityn's]] court to ask permission of [[Tserre Ettertree|Tserre]] for tutelage for Vernoue with the [[Half-Elf]] refusing. On the last moments of Vernoue's test, Menisi strong-armed Ielane with the rest of the [[House Marquin]] members to help Vernoue in the way only Ielane can.<ref>{{chl|Vernoue (Pt. 2)}}</ref>
