Before King Edmond met the late Queen, he fell in love with Anna. Anna barrelled right into Edmond while she was reading about the Monterran daisy, and sent him straight into the royal conservatory's fountain. According to him, she was just there to see the sights, while he was a young prince pretending to be a noble because he was desperate to escape his responsibilities. They spent many happy days together exploring the capital and sailing the rivers, before saying goodbye in Monterre's clocktower because Anna had to go back to America and Edmond had duties back at the palace. Afterwards, Edmond thought of trying to find her, but he believed that it would had never worked out because she didn't know who he truly was, and because he knew from a young age that he was destined to marry for politics.
