Lucius was handsomely stoic and a mighty hero. Meeting Lucius at a young age after he had saved your life induced you to be the next war hero. But you only brought shame to your family and the representation of femininity. It only gave you the strength you needed to become greater. To become as great as Lucius. At a young age, he was already fated to be the best knight.
