## Lore

### The Oath of the "Traitors"

Anna and Lady Truth were best friends, as both shares similar experiences in the orphanage and was isolated from other kids. Later Anna was adopted from the orphanage by a wealthy art dealer, the father of "Hebe" (who would later become known as "Succubus"). She had a natural eye for aesthetics, and despite how talented Hebe was or how hard Hebe worked, Anna surpassed her with raw talent.

Their father later sent Anna and Hebe to Lone Moon Ladies' School on January 5th, XXXX, a renowned educational facility highly regarded for its ability to produce both the most outstanding artists in every medium and elegant members of high society. Anna was tasked to take care of Hebe, due to Hebe's disability.

After entering the facility, Anna's liking of the novel Knight of the Lone Moon increased due to its author being her literature teacher. Anna soon was spotted meeting in secret with the school's Art Assistant in private after curfew, breaching the school rules. She was pardoned as the assistant resigned from his position, but her behavior was noticeably different after that incident.

On March 25th, XXXX, Anna was reported to have gone mad, and the Schoolmistress locked her within the castle tower as a last resort. In distress, her sister Hebe wrote to Lady Truth asking for both a rescue operation and an investigation. Anna is shortly reported missing, however, by her blind classmate Clio who claimed that Anna had walked into a painting.

However, the truth was different: Anna had actually solved the story of the Legend of Crescent and found out the secret tunnel in the old castle from before. She pretended to be mad to be isolated by the Mistress so her plan of escaping from the school with Fine Arts Assistant would success. Her plan was carried out during the "The Moonbeam of Hope" event, an annual three-day festival that allowed more ships to pass by the dock. From here, she succeed and now her status is unknown.

### In Succubus's Story

"Succubus" (Hebe) later states that Anna had eloped with her lover and left her old life behind. Anna had become accustomed to the lavish life of a great artist but her creativity had dwindled, eventually causing her to die in both debt and poverty. Combined with the "Oath of the Traitor" event, it seemed that Succubus was referring to what happened to Anna back then, about her plan of escaping the school with her "lover" who was most likely Fine Arts Assistant. However, the rest of the story is yet to be unconfirmed as it was only Succubus's perspective of Anna's story. *The truth may be different from what she told.*

### Alternate Theories and Conclusions

* Because Anna is Lady Truth's childhood friend, it is highly possible that she is the girl who stood next to Truth and held her hand in the orphanage picture of the 5 kids (including Mr. Inference, Paranormal Detective and another anonymous girl).
	+ In Noir's PV, there's another closer look at her: She has long blonde hair, black button eyes and wears a hat, making her really look like Hebe.

## Trivia

* Anna's alias at the Lone Moon Girls' School - "Echo" is the name of an Oread who resided on Mount Cithaeron in Greek Mythology. In Narcissus' story, she was a Nymphe who was after Narcissus but got rejected because the man refused to be romantically involved with any woman. Coincidentally, Narcissus also made an appearance as a costume connected to the The Oath of the "Traitors" event as Edgar Valden.
* Anna's alternate translation of her alias - "Encore", had an entirely different meaning from Echo.
	+ Encore means a repeated or additional performance of an item at the end of a concert, as called for by an audience. This has more relation to stage, specifically Golden Rose Theater. However, because Anna had no relation to this event, this translation of her nickname may not be considered as official.
