Ayanna Anka

**Ayanna Anka** is a character from "Last Legacy" and Anisa's mother. Although she first appears on a poster in the prologue, she makes her first physical appearance in Chapter 2 of Anisa's route. In the first Last Legacy RPG, she is stated to be an Engineer and had a relationship with the Lord of Shadows. She is shown wielding guns. She is a protagonist of the game and one of the MC's favorite characters.

She first appears in Chapter 2 when she barges into Anisa's apartment while she's changing into her armor, upset that Anisa had come to Porrima but hadn't visited her. She immediately changes her tone when she sees you, assuming that the two of you are on a date. She takes the opportunity to embarrass Anisa by telling stories about her past relationships and makes several suggestive comments.

In Chapter 5, she is seen hanging out with Felix and Sage at a tavern after Anisa asked them to keep her company. When the others debate breaking through Rivath's wards, Ayanna expresses that this is foolish, as even if they manage to enter Rivath they will not be able to navigate the many rules that inhibit outsiders. She reveals that she raised Anisa in Rivath and that the pair of them have Rivathi citizenship, which will allow them through the wards. She declares she will join you in Rivath so that she can make sure you follow enough of its norms to not get in trouble.

At the start of Chapter 6, she has spent weeks traveling with you, Anisa, and Saaros to Rivath. She helps Saaros explain Rivathi norms to you and seems in good spirits at first. She leaves the group to visit her old house where she raised Anisa along with the Lord of Shadows. When you find her there, she seems unusually somber, but she tells lighthearted stories about Anisa's youth. When the topic turns to her former husband, she gets serious again. She says they met while competing to find the same treasure. Though Ayanna hates for people to be able to predict her behavior and feelings, she claims the Lord of Shadows was the one person who could read her. Though she loved him, she in turn was not surprised when he left her and Anisa.

Anisa confronts Ayanna about her husband's eventual identity as the Lord of Shadows. Ayanna reveals the bitterness and trust issues that his betrayal caused when she tells Anisa to break up with you. She compares you to the Lord of Shadows, as you are both dimension travelers who are exciting and give someone a sense of purpose. Therefore, like the Lord of Shadows, you can't be trusted to be what you appear. She says that Anisa shares her obsessive personality and would thus fall too in love to see you clearly. When you disagree with her perspective, she asks Anisa to speak with her outside, after which the Lord of Shadows appears in the house.

In Chapter 7, after the Lord of Shadows traps you and Anisa in an illusion, Ayanna goes to the Seers for help. She returns to her old house with Saaros and Azimuth to rescue you. She shows great distress that Anisa has been harmed and promises not to let the Lord of Shadows hurt her again. At Azimuth's command, she leaves to help Saaros fortify the wards so that the Lord of Shadows can't return.
