The Braunlichs were related by marriage/mating to the Markers at least twice. The first time was from the marriage between Calera Armash, the only daughter of Daniel Braunlich, and Henry, the only son of Elda. The second time was from the copulation between Henry's son Ren Maaka and Brigitte Braunlich, which resulted in a son named Rei.
