Biography[]
Pendulum Wars[]
Raising her Family[]
After Carlos became friends with Marcus, Eva served as a second mother to him. Nine years before Emergence Day, while Marcus was at the Santiago's house, Eva received a call from Adam Fenix, informing her that his wife had gone missing and that he needed to speak to Marcus. After Marcus went home to speak to his father, she told her family about the situation.[2] Five years later, Dom told her that he had gotten his girlfriend, Maria Flores, pregnant, and that he was going to marry her.[3]
Aspho Fields[]
Two years later, Eva went with Eduardo, Maria, and Adam Fenix to see off Carlos and Marcus from Fesor Naval Base before the Battle of Aspho Fields.[4] Carlos was killed during the battle, and Eva and her husband spent most nights after this crying. After the ceremony where Carlos' Embry Star was given to Dom, he gave it to them. They ate dinner with Dom, Maria, Marcus, Adam, and Anya Stroud afterwards, but left early to relieve the babysitter taking care of Benedicto and Sylvia.[5]
Locust War[]
Emergence Day[]
Six weeks after the end of the Pendulum Wars, the subterranean race known as the Locust Horde emerged in what would be known as Emergence Day. In an effort to colonize the surface, the Locust began a genocidal war against the humans of Sera. During the attacks, Eva's grandchildren were killed along with Maria's parents. Eva and Eduardo went missing during the attacks.[6]
Death[]
As of 14 A.E., Eva and Eduardo were never found. Due to being in Ephyra, they would have had protection and access to contact Dominic despite the attacks. While it was never officially confirmed, they remained missing, presumed dead. It was likely they were killed the initial attacks.
