Yes, you all are correct. Mare made her first appearance in Shakugan no Shana Game for PS2. Thus, her subsequent appearance in the first 2 episodes of Season 2 could be considered as an anime original material back then, before the Volume 19 was being published.

Now, that is no longer the case. The author has made effort in integrating her into novel material. The prologue and epilogue in Volume 19 of the Novel are solely about Sabrac and Mare. Like it or not, Mare is a part of the novel material now.
