sara was born into an established and prominent family - her grandmother had been a favourite distant cousin of the queen and the hyde’s have been in good standing ever since
she grew up, as the oldest child, expecting to inherit the family estate and title. the responsibility rested heavily but capably on her shoulders
her father was a harsh man around everyone but his daughter, she melted him from the day she was born, his illness over the last few years has been hard for her
very few would know that outside her family, and her wife katerina, she is often perceived as stoic and slightly intimidating in public - always keeping to the strictest societal standards
with her wife and their wards it’s a different story, as soon as she steps through their front door on narcissus person she is a woman transformed
on top of the fears for his health, her father’s illness has caused further heartbreak for sara - when it became clear he was looking his ability to manage the estate they let the lawyers tell her there was another claim to the title - a son born out of wedlock before her parents were married
though sara has a title through katerina, losing what she has grown up believing to be hers is unconscionable. there is also a point of pride she hasn’t admitted to anyone, of wanting to provide as much for her family as her wife has
