## History

Selene was abandoned as a baby at Steamfort’s orphanage by her mother, and had spent her entire childhood there where she met and befriended Luna. Due to the orphanage’s condition, she used to steal food frequently. After Luna left, Selene too ran away from the orphanage to Ravenwall and began a life of a pickpocket that eventually evolved into thievery. During a heist, she met Apollo who helped hide her when she almost got caught in an alley because one of the cops chasing her was his stepfather. Since then she started visiting him often to give him money and food as a thanks, and they became friends. Then she decided to stop stealing and go to Bluebell in search of a decent job to better their life, but the Midnight Express brought her to the buildings instead. While she managed to get through the first two, she unfortunately sprained her ankle in the third building and couldn’t make it to the train in time, so she was trapped there for 3 years straight and has met many other prisoners, including the person who betrayed Apollo in the second building.
