The Capture
Edit
Marella's egg hatched with a baby girl, who was given the name Eglantine. The family was very happy, except for Kludd, who didn't really care much for his little sister. Eglantine went through many ceremonies during her life without her parents, and Soren was the happiest one for her.
The Journey
Edit
Some time after The Capture, Marella and her mate, Noctus, were killed, presumably by their eldest son, Kludd. It is unknown when they were killed, but it is most likely after The Capture.
The Rescue
Edit
In The Rescue, Marella appeared along with Noctus as scrooms to Soren while he was in the spirit woods to warn him of Metal Beak.
The Burning
Edit
Marella and her mate came to see Soren and Eglantine, seeing that their unfinished business was finished. She and Noctus then departed to glaumora.
Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole
Edit
Marella's role in the movie is very similar in the novels, except that she is not murdered by the Pure Ones. Instead, she and Noctus (her mate) travel to the great tree to greet Soren and the victorious Guardians after the battle with the Pure Ones.

- In the movie, Marella is there at the tree with her mate, Noctus. In the books, she is dead.
