04Story

SPOILERS

At some point, Mary Stuart became the queen of Scotland and married Darnley. With great tolerance, she provided respite to the lonely dark knights, Tarkus and Bruford. Both knights pledged loyalty to Mary, promising to sacrifice their lives for her if necessary.↗↗

In 1565, Mary and her first cousin once removed, Elizabeth I, begin battling over the throne. One day, a sudden explosion at Mary's home kills her husband Darnley. Though the true cause of his death remains unknown to history, Elizabeth accuses Mary of killing him, successfully turning the population against her. Nobles from across the land rebel against her. While Mary's army believe her and feel the accusation was baseless, the people cannot stand their queen being a murder suspect.↗↗

Although Tarkus and Bruford's army wins their battle, Elizabeth's army destroys the rest of Mary's side. Elizabeth captures Mary and takes her prisoner, and at some point she orders an executioner to behead her. Having promised the public that she wouldn't kill Mary, Elizabeth employs an impersonator who remains confined to solitude in a tower. Elizabeth uses this impersonator to trick Tarkus and Bruford into turning themselves in to free Mary.↗↗

Over three hundred years later, Dio takes interest in the knights' story and revives them to exact their revenge against the world. After Jonathan Joestar defeats Bruford, he expresses his contentment with being reunited with his queen in the afterlife.↗↗
