Marie is the only child of the Duponts, which is part of the reason she was able to get away with learning everything she did. She started to learn horseback riding at a young age, although at first she only learned sidesaddle. As she grew older, she convinced the horse-master to teach her to ride astride. Before he died, her grandfather taught her the basics of swordsmanship and archery, and she has continued in these practices since he died, getting help when and if she can. She has to keep these "hobbies" hidden, since they are not considered proper for a woman of her age and station to learn. Her parents arranged with Richard's aunt to have Marie marry Richard, even though Marie has absolutely no interest in Richard, or in men at all in general. She will, however, submit to the marriage if she must. She doesn't think she has much of a choice.

All the education a noblewoman should have, and then some, since she would sneak around the grounds of the family home and get lessons in things that a "noblewoman shouldn't learn", like swords and archery
