Template:CharacterInfobox Sarene was the daughter of King Eventeo of Teod. A brilliant, outspoken woman, she had some difficulties fitting in to the court of Teod. She spent several years working as an ambassador for Teod, serving most notably as the ambassador to Svorden.

In an attempt to re-establish diplomatic relations with Arelon, Sarene set up an arranged marriage with Prince Raoden. One of the clauses in the engagement contract specified that should either Sarene or Raoden die before they were married the marriage would be considered to have been carried out and still binding, and since Raoden was considered legally dead after his transformation Sarene became "married" to a dead man.

She spent the first three months of her "married" life working to block the efforts of Hrathen to convert the people to Shu-Dereth. Once Raoden fixed the problems with the powers of Elantris, she was married in a grand ceremony to Raoden.
