History
In 1565, 315 years before Phantom Blood, Elizabeth and her first cousin once removed, Mary Stuart, start battling over the throne. One day, luck struck when there was a sudden explosion at Mary's home. Darnley died but the true cause of his death was unknown to history. Elizabeth took the opportunity to accuse Mary for his death, turning the population against Mary. Nobles from across the land rebelled against her.
Aside from Tarkus and Bruford's armies who won their battles, Elizabeth's army completely destroyed Mary's soldiers. Elizabeth captured Mary and took her prisoner, where she ordered an executioner to behead her. Elizabeth lied to the public promising not to kill Mary, so she used an impersonator who stayed confined to solitude in a tower. With her impersonator, Elizabeth managed to trick Tarkus and Bruford into turning themselves in to free Mary. Tarkus and Bruford obliged, but before their executioner killed them, he pointed to Mary's head on the ground, revealing that he had killed her already.
Angered from Elizabeth's betrayal, Tarkus and Bruford cursed Elizabeth as well as all her future descendants before their deaths.[1]
