Why did people in Zealandia marry at an early age?

What was not reasonable was a king forcing people to marry each other. Between nobles a marriage alliance was quite common, especially for powerful ones like her family. However, a human and a dark one's marriage was just something that had never happened before.
Speaking of dark ones…
