A Black Ancestor?

Lotte Verbeek as Prosperine Black (nee Limette), daughter of Aymeric Limette II and Artèmise Limette (nee Gage), wife of Cetus Black I, mother to Nigellus Black I, Artemisia Black, and Hyperos Black III.

Prosperine was born into the prosperous Limette family in Languedoc, France. She was the only daughter of pure-blood nobles Aymeric and Artèmise. Two years after her entrance into Beauxbatons, they welcomed their son and heir, Armand Limette. While she was beloved by some, others criticized her, but she was growing into a lovely young woman, deemed suitable for marriage and blessed with the potential for motherhood. The Limettes were harsh and zealous in their blood-purity values and instilled the same onto their children. She was often distant from Armand for their age gap was too great for them (12 years) to ever actually bond properly, yet there was always a sense of protectiveness over him.

It was during this time that she met Cetus Black I, a pure-blood who was nearly six years her senior. The Noble and the Most Ancient House of Black's history was popular, even in France. And a marriage to their heir would deem good political connections in Wizarding Britain as well. The Limettes were influential, yes, but only to a certain region. Beyond Languedoc, they didn't have much influence like the Rosiers. So, if a Limette daughter were to marry a Black heir, that would not only boost the status quo of House Limette but also pull them out of the obscurity cliff and possibly give them more power.

Kind of like a jackpot if you are well established in your home region already and want to spread your influence.

She was married off to Cetus Black I in her seventh year, becoming pregnant with their heir Nigellus Cetus Black I (1783) during their honeymoon. They soon moved to England and settled in the Black family Estate inherited by Cetus.

Almost three years later, Lady Artèmise Limette would pass away from a riding accident, leaving Aymeric, Prosperine, and Armand devastated. In that same year, Cetus and Prosperine would have their daughter, who was named Artemisia after her late grandmother. Not after the ancestor who turned out to be a half-blood. Their youngest child and second son, Hyperos Gaius Black III, would be born five years later.

Her son, Nigellus Black - I would marry a Concordia Walkin and become the father of Licorus Black (1808), Phoebe Black (1810), Alexia Walkin Black (1812), since Concordia was an only girl and they needed someone to continue the line if possible, Hesper Black (1819 - 1820), and Eduardus Limette Black. Armand's heir, Aymeric III, had passed in stillbirth, and he only had five daughters, so Eduardus was soon taken in by House Limette to be their heir.

Her daughter Artemisia Black would be married off to a Verus Malfoy and bear his heirs. (names tbd)

Her youngest child, Hyperos, would be married to a Nott and they would move to Greece.
