== History ==
{{image|Sarene and Ashe by Séverine Dumagny.jpg|side=right|width=250px|With [[Ashe]]}}
 
Sarene became an ambassador for Teod at a very young age, serving most notably as the ambassador to [[Svorden]].
 
In an attempt to re-establish diplomatic relations with [[Arelon]], Sarene arranges a political marriage with [[Raoden|Prince Raoden]]. She meets and gets to know Raoden by communicating through letters, and later by [[Seonseon]]. When she arrives in Arelon, however, she finds out that Raoden has died of [[Shaod|"disease"]]. A clause in the marriage contract states that the death of either her or Raoden qualifies as a marriage, so she finds herself a widow, and legally the daughter of [[Iadon| King Iadon of Arelon]].{{book ref|Elantris|2}}
 
She spends the first three months of her "married" life working to block the efforts of a [[gyorn]] named [[Hrathen]] to convert the people to [[Shu-Dereth]] and thus add both Teod and Arelon to the massive [[Fjorden#Fjordell_Empire|Fjordell Empire]]. In addition, she works with Raoden's group of friends to attempt to change Iadon's system of government. She also brings food to the Elantrians and teaches a group of ArelishArelene noblewomen, including [[Eshen]] and [[Daora]], fencing, in an attempt to give them some agency in the court.{{book ref|Elantris| 17}}
 
Hrathen eventually gets to [[Telrii]], a rich nobleman, and promises to place him on the throne if he converts to Shu-Dereth. When Iadon commits suicide, Sarene realizes that the only way to keep Telrii off the throne is to combine her fortunes with [[Roial|Roial's]] through marriage.{{book ref|Elantris|35}} On the day of the wedding, however, Hrathen poisons her to make her look like she has undergone the Shaod, and she is thrown into Elantris.{{book ref| Elantris| 38}} After five days in Elantris, when the poison wears off, she and Raoden realize that she was not truly an Elantrian, and she returns to [[Kae]].{{book ref|Elantris|36}}
 
She convinces the people to accept Raoden as their king even though he is an Elantrian{{book ref|Elantris|56}}, but then the Derethi priests attack Arelon, capturing Sarene, along with the rest of her allies and family in [[Kae]]. She is taken to [[TeoinTeoras]] by [[Dilaf]], where he attempts to use her to make King Eventeo surrender to the Derethi.{{book ref|Elantris|59}} With the aid of Hrathen, Raoden, [[Galladon]], and other Elantrians, she fights off the Derethi invasion and saves both Kae and Teod from Dilaf's attack.{{book ref|Elantris|62}}
 
Afterward, she is married in a grand ceremony to Raoden, and becomes the Queen of Arelon.{{book ref|Elantris|63}} She becomes pregnant by him after.
 
▲== Attributes and Abilities ==
The [[Seon]] [[Ashe]] is bound to her, and she has a large amount of political skill. She is also a moderately skilled actor and a skilled fencer. Sarene is very good at reading people and manipulating them to her needs.
