Captured by Vane's forces after guiding the party to Reital to rescue Delgarde.She was notably absent during the process of setting up the Suryan Council, possibly still aggrieved over her tardy release from Reital's dungeons after the fall of Vane.
This was confirmed when she surfaced in 1621 raising a rebellion against the throne. A few disaffected nobles - mostly those powerful under Vane - sided with her, but they were counting on a plot to assassinate the royal family which failed miserably, and were crushed at the battle of Valbet in 1622. In the absence of King Surya, the loyalist forces were led by his son Prince Cuitech, General Harker, and Delgarde, Ariella's brother. Ariella was killed in the battle.
