Early Life
Lady Raquel was born Princess Zorlinda Raquel Terrobihn-Remulp, and is one of five siblings from Lady Lin and King <*>. She was the second eldest daughter and the middle child. She grew up in Castle Lightpool alongside her siblings. During this time a feud began with her eldest sister, Lady Joeanne. Raquel's jealousy tore the siblings' bond apart and their eldest brother's murder was the complete end.

Prior to the events of the Bookworld Series, Raquel and Joeanne were put through a test by their mother in the form of a maze. The prize was the Heart of the Dragon. They arrived at the same time, bickered over the Heart and during the ensuing struggle, its chain broke. The Heart fell into a sewer and was lost to history for many years.

After that, Raquel retreated into the northern part of Trias and claimed the Black Mountains and everything north of it as her kingdom. She built Castle Raja and raised an army.

During this time, she assisted the newly reforged, Blacklion (now The Fractured One), in the murder of their youngest siblings - Lady Cherryblossom and Sir Swiftwind.
