Odette

> "*Build on this. Feel your anger and your pain and your sorrow and your joy, and put it all into your dance. Live the music, feel it. Every note, every sound, every harmony needs to have your body vibrating from the end of your hair to the tips of your toes. And then, and only then, will you take her down.*"

Odette was considered to be the best dancer of her generation before an accident caused her to become disabled. She would become a cleaner to the Opera house for the next ten years, at the same time she would work under Regine Le Haut.

One night when she was cleaning the Opera house she came across a young orphan girl named Félicie, who the janitor accused of being a thief. Odette told the janitor to let her go, but when Félicie tried to thank her Odette told her to leave, stating that she hated children, especially orphans.
