The 1st Lady of the New World

History

Alphonsine and Marc met each in the spring of 1985 at the Titan Summit, a Private Military-Industrial Conference in Manhattan, New York City.   By 1987, Marcellus McIntyre Dior-Butler was a rising political and military figure, serving as Deputy National Security Advisor. He had been one of the key architects of superhuman defense policy and was actively overseeing the next generation of U.S. super-soldier programs.   Meanwhile, Alphonsine Dior was ascending to power within Diorman Technologies, the massive corporate empire with contracts in advanced military technology, superhuman augmentation, and high-tier aerospace innovations. She was on track to inherit the company from her aging father, but corporate rivals and military skepticism about her leadership posed a challenge.   The Titan Summit was a private, highly exclusive military-industrial conference attended by the U.S. government, top defense contractors, military generals, and corporate CEOs—where classified defense budgets were quietly negotiated, and the next decade of warfare was mapped out.   Their relationship started out professional but grew into something resembling romance and by 1990, they were married, and by 1992, their first child, Marcellus Dior II, was born. When Marc and Alphonsine began their All-American Conquests, they leveraged the full might of the US empire and Diorman Technologies to great effect.   While Marc was imprisoned by the UN on the moon around 2007, the US imprisoned Alphonsine at ADX Florence, Colorado. She would be released in 2021 by Washington and returned to her family and her children, the Argonauts. By 2023, after the Argonauts failed coup at the UN on Sept. 21st, Alphonsine would be returned to ADX for helping her children plan the attack.   When news outlets sought comments from the still imprisoned Marc on the incident, he remarked that the attack was unremarkable and ill-advised, proving his children to still be inferior to himself. These comments would later result in Alphonsine filing for divorce from Marc.
