## Early life

Aslíonn O'Connor was born on the 26th of January, 1832, growing up in modern-day Monsburgh, to Irish parents. She was born a bastard child, her parents having never married until her mother's untimely demise at the hands of her father. O'Connor was 6 years old at the time, yet seemed unaffected by these events, although reporting not having much memory of her early years. At the age of 11, O'Connor began growing more and more rebellious and rowdy, getting into street fights and wearing clothes not typically seen as feminine.

### Friend group

O'Connor's friend group consisted primarily of Oliver Hayes, Monty S. Marshall, Augustus Marshall, and Leon Hastings. Although later falling in love with Hastings, in her childhood days, they were not very close. Instead, O'Connor was closest with Augustus and Oliver.

#### Relationship with Oliver Hayes

O'Connor first met Hayes at a street fight near the fountain, and quickly became acquaintances after seeing Hayes pickpocket and commit acts of theft whilst fighting someone larger than him. She grew a liking to his risky foul play, and Hayes introduced her to Marshall's friend group. Over the years, Hayes and O'Connor's similar rambunctious lifestyles lead to them becoming closer friends, yet also getting them into more trouble. Hayes got carried away, robbing a camp, and felt as though his life was in danger, resulting in taking someone's life. This brought O'Connor memories of her mother's death, and she takes a couple minutes in hysteria, with Hayes attempting to console her, covered in blood. Eventually, she realised she was a bad influence on Hayes' fractured psyche, and decided that they should tone it down. This was not the case. Instead, Hayes influenced O'Connor to a point where neither of them had much sense of danger.

### Life in Avalon

After Hayes and Marshall left for Solague, all O'Connor had left was Hastings. This devastated her, having Hayes, who she depended on, leave for his home land, and Marshall, who she deeply respected, leave too. She described Hastings as a *'bumbling fool'* at first, but eventually began to find it charming.

### Education

In school, O'Connor was taught a multitude of subjects, such as woodworking, mathematics, architecture, design, and music. She was tutored by Oscar Marshall, father of future Avalonian Prime Minister Monty S. Marshall, until 1850, following his demise, after which, she was tutored by Seán Gilmore Sr., Father of Seán Gilmore She was taught in the University of Western Monsburgh and graduated in 1862, aged 30, with 2 PhDs in music and engineering.
