Whilst teaching Anastasia discovered an enchanted mirror and believed she could use it to help her discover who her parents were. A dark mirror entity took advantage of the desperation and began to take over Goldfinch's body. Mirrorfinch (the Mirror entity) would occasionally take control of Anastasia where she would have no memory of what happened.
