**Irma Fliech** (イルマ・フェリーチェ, *Iruma Ferīche*?) is a famous opera singer, seeking help to finish off her most recent concerto. All she is missing, is the main song called 'love letter', the writing of which is entrusted to Violet Evergarden.

She sings soprano and has a manager who hires Violet. Violet spends a lot of her time trying to think of a love letter, as she is not clear about "love".
Eustitia

**Eustitia** ( ユースティティア, *Yūsutitia*?) is a city renowned as the capital of astronomy. It is located in the southwestern part of the continent is the country of Astrea, which center is slightly pierced through by mountain ranges extending from the middle of the mainland to the southwest. The people live at about 1,500 meters above sea level. At the center of Eustitia is the Shaher Astronomical Headquarters, also known as the "Observatory".

## Overview

Since the country of Astrea was full of peace from north to south of its mountainfoot, there used to be nearly no residents going through the trouble of living in the inconvenient mountain range. As this fact had caught his attention, Shaher purchased a large portion of its land and made sure that light pollution would not reach it, even if an observatory were built there. For that reason, even at present, there are no other cities around the observatory. An exclusive railway extends from the capital to the surroundings of Eustitia, and from there to the observatory, people are transported by a ropeway that became the first to be generally operated in the history of the continent.

Eustitia is called the “capital of astronomy” due of its superiority in astronomical observation, but it could also be said that the most remarkable characteristic of the city was being home to one of the world’s leading astronomical research institutes.

## Plot

Violet continues to protect Dietfried, losing one of her arms in the process. However, as the train approaches a bridge, General Merkulov reveals that the bridge has been rigged to explode, as a backup plan, before proceeding to leap off the train and into the river below. Violet and Benedict go to remove the bombs, with Benedict is kicking one off, and Violet tearing the other off with great effort, losing her one remaining arm. With the envoy safe, the party continues on to the peace talks, where Leidenschaftlich and Gadariki officially sign a peace treaty to end the war. Upon returning to Leiden, a popular event called the Air Show, where planes are loaded with letters that are released into the sky to rain down all over the country, is revived due to the peace. While Violet's coworkers are writing letters to submit, Cattleya suggests she write a letter to Gilbert. However, Violet cannot find the words to say. She is then invited by Dietfried to visit him and Gilbert's mother. She assures Violet that she does not blame her for Gilbert's death and that he lives on inside her heart, even if the memories are painful. As Violet leaves, Dietfried notes that she's become fully independent thanks to Gilbert's teachings. Now inspired, Violet writes her first ever letter to Major Gilbert for the Air Show. In it, she tells Gilbert that she'll keep on waiting for him, that she's learned so much and found so many emotions as an Auto Memories Doll, that she plans to keep living in hopes that she'll meet him again, and finally that she understands the words "I love you" a bit more. Through this, she finally comes to terms with Gilbert's loss. The next day, Violet receives a new ghostwriting request and returns to work, introducing herself to her client.

Kazaly

**Kazaly** (カザリ, *Kazari*?) is a rural mountain village in the northeastern part of Leidenschaftlich. It is also an important production center of rice, so a railway is connected to it for its transportation.

Since Kazaly is located in a long and narrow tongue-shaped plateau whittled into a river, and is a prominent land of constant rain in the country, so abundant water supplying is done throughout the year, and there’s also the fact that changes in temperature are not so significant; Therefore, hydroponic farming is done vigorously, especially in rice cultivation, with rice paddies along the river.

   As there are also areas where triple-cropping is carried out rather than double, the productivity is overwhelmingly higher than that of wheat, because there are few obstacles to succession, and it became one of the reasons that rice noodle culture developed in Leidenschaftlich. In addition, it has an easier-to-live climate compared to the city of Leiden, which is hot and humid, and its rustic but scenic landscape is popular amongst wealthy people as a summer refuge.
Gilbert Bougainvillea and the Transient Dream

**Gilbert Bougainvillea and the Transient Dream** (ギルベルト・ブーゲンビリアと儚い夢, *Giruberuto Buugenviria to Hakanai Yume*?) is a short story given out to theatergoers for the screening of *Violet Evergarden the Movie*. It is also included in the story collection *Violet Evergarden ~Last Letter~.*

## Summary

The story takes place after Gilbert and Violet's wedding and is split between events from Gilbert's past and the current time. Gilbert dreams about an episode in his childhood where his brother Dietfried was beaten for attempting to run away from their strict household. Dietfried tells Gilbert not to be their family's slave. Gilbert wakes up and is initially surprised to find Violet in his arms. This is the first day that they are living together and both aren't used to it yet. Since it's a rainy day, the two of them spend the day indoors.

Gilbert flashes back to the day he visited his room at the military academy before school began. His parents didn't accompany him, and his brother had already run off to the naval academy. He sees other young men enjoying their lives and thinks about how if he complained about his responsibilities, he would be cut off from his family. In the present day, Gilbert and Violet go to a park to have a picnic. They talk about the lack of security in riding hot air balloons, as well as the time that they had to eat one of their military horses for survival.

In the past, Gilbert went on a date with his fiancée at a cafe, but it was clear that neither of them were interested in each other. Gilbert would rather hang out with his first ever friend, Hodgins. His fiancée asked him to convince his parents to cancel the engagement. In the present day, Gilbert buys a bouquet of roses and gives them to Violet.

Gilbert recalls buying Violet her emerald brooch and his anguish over only teaching her how to kill and nothing about beauty. In the present day, the two are buying rings at a jewelry store. Despite the happy occasion, Gilbert feels that something is off. He then realizes that Violet's arms are not prostheses. The jewelry store vanishes, and Gilbert is convinced that their happy memories never existed. He feels a complicated mix of emotions over his relationship with Violet and his lack of guilt for what he did to her, and then finally wakes up in the real world.

Gilbert wakes up alone, but recalls his terrible dream. He is almost resigned to following the path set out for him by his family when Violet knocks on his door, back from shopping for breakfast. Gilbert kisses her and tells her that he had a terrible dream. Violet confesses that she also has dreams where she is trying to find him but fails. Gilbert realizes that they are alike, and that he fears nothing now that he has his greatest love.

## Somewhere, Under a Starry Sky

**Somewhere, Under a Starry Sky** (どこかの星空の下で, *Doko ka no Hoshizora no Shita de*?) is the sixth episode of the *Violet Evergarden* anime adaptation. It aired on February 15, 2018.

## Summary

Violet travels to the country of Astrea to work with transcribers copying damaged manuscripts. Her partner Leon has a past not unlike hers.

## Plot

Violet, along with a number of other Dolls, arrives at the Shaher Astronomical Headquarters in order to help the scholars make copies of a number of rare books. Violet is paired with a young scholar named Leon, who initially dislikes her and Dolls in general. However, he is impressed with how quickly she works and begins to soften when he sees that she doesn't care about his background or upbringing as an orphan. He invites Violet to view Alley's Comet with him, which only appears once every two hundred years, and she accepts. While the two stargaze, Leon explains that his father was also a scholar at the Observatory but disappeared on an expedition. His mother then left home to search for him and never returned either, causing Leon to resent them and the concept of love. Violet then tells Leon that she has no known blood relatives, but is completely devoted to Gilbert. It's then that Leon realizes Violet is in love with Gilbert. The next morning, Violet is preparing to leave now that her job is complete. Leon sees her off and tells her that instead of waiting at the Observatory for his parents to return, he'll start traveling the world like Violet to go look for them. As Violet leaves, Leon wonders if he'll ever encounter her again.

Amy Bartlett

*Image Gallery ↓*

**Amy Bartlett** (エイミー・バートレット, *Eimii Bātoretto*?), also known as **Isabella York** (イサベラ・ヨーク, *Isabera Yōku*?), is the protagonist of the second chapter of *Violet Evergarden Gaiden*. She is the heiress of the prestigious York family who once attended an all-girls academy, and Violet is hired to be her private tutor while posing as her handmaiden. She is currently married to an unknown man.

## Appearance

Amy is a young woman with bright green eyes. She has long, wine-red hair tied into two braids. She usually wears glasses.

## Personality

Her personality changes a bit throught the movie. When she first sees Violet she seems a bit agressive and she doesn't seem to like her help very much. Later, we see she warmed up to Violet and seems more kind. The way she acts and behaves with others really depends on who they are and how long Amy has known them. Eventually, they become really close friends.

## Story

As the illegitimate daughter of a high-standing aristocrat, Amy is ordered by her father to attend an all-girls academy to groom her into a high society lady who will be married off someday. However, due to her rough early life, Amy needed more education than the other students. To help with that, Violet is hired for three months to catch her up secretly while posing as her handmaiden. She was recommended to Amy's father by a wet nurse of the Drossel royal family.

The two share a room together, with Violet playing the role of her handmaiden by doing things like braiding her hair and telling her her schedule, and attend classes together. It is twenty days before Violet's contract ends. At lunch, another student invites Amy to eat with her, which Amy thinks is due to the fact that the York family is distantly related to the Drossel family, but Violet turns her down on Amy's behalf, using the excuse that she is unaccustomed to speaking to strangers due to her childhood. Amy does not speak for herself, due to her belief that the crude part of herself would be revealed if she did so, so Violet does it for her so she can learn and do it for herself later on. While the two eat, Amy sees a girl about to trip while holding a tray, but Violet saves her and escorts to her table, much to the jealousy of Amy and the other students. Amy notes that Violet is idolized in the academy due to her beautiful looks and knight-like mannerisms, assisting people like her within a month of arriving at the academy. That gave her the nickname of "Lady Knight Princess".

Later in the day, the two girls practice their dancing for the upcoming ball. Violet is a strict teacher and Amy, frustrated by the differences between them, stops the practice.
Leon Stephanotis and the First Star

**Leon Stephanotis and the First Star** (リオン・ステファノティスと一番星, *Rio Sutefanotisu to Ichiban Hoshi*?) is a short story given out to theatergoers during the screening of *Violet Evergarden Gaiden: Eternity and the Auto Memories Doll*. It was included in the short story collection, *Violet Evergarden ~Last Letter~*.

## Summary

The story takes place years after Violet and Leon watched the comet together. Leon, now a member of the literature collecting department of the Shaher Astronomical Headquarters, is given a vacation after their latest expedition in the desert. A junior invites him to his family's villa, but Leon turns him down. The junior then tells him that if he ever wants to see him, he can visit a hotel in Leidenschaftlich that is owned by his uncle and he'll come pick him up. Leon's interest is piqued at the mention of that city, where the CH Postal Company is located. Leon thinks about Violet, but is afraid to go see her because he fears that she won't remember him.

Leon checks into a hotel and decides to go outside to see the night sky. Leon's telescope attracts attention and soon everyone wants to try using it. Leon lets everyone use it for free. He eventually catches sight of a veiled woman, who turns out to be Violet. Violet still remembered his name and the promise she made to him to memorize the names of a few stars. Leon realizes that Violet has found the one she loves, but suppressed the pain and asks her to spend some time with him. He confesses his love for her and asks her to forgive him.

Amy Bartlett and the Spring Sunshine Filtered Through Leaves

**Amy Bartlett and the Spring Sunshine Filtered Through Leaves** (エイミー・バートレットと春の木漏れ日, *Eimii Baatoretto to Haru no Komorebi*?) is a short story included with the *Violet Evergarden Gaiden: Eternity and the Auto Memories Doll* home video release. It is also included in the story collection *Violet Evergarden ~Last Letter~*.

## Summary

The story is written as Amy's diary entries. The diary was given to her as a birthday present from her husband, two months after her actual birthday. Amy writes about her suffocating and hopeless life after her marriage. Her husband locks her up within the mansion and brings his lover, who he had since before his marriage, home frequently. Both she and her husband had married each other for their own gain: a noble bloodline for her husband, and protection for Taylor for Amy. Amy hasn't written to Violet in a long time, because she has no idea what to write about.

A few days later, Amy's husband tried to force himself on her because he had an argument with his lover, but Amy violently rejects him. Amy desperately wants to see Taylor and even dreams about her. Some time later, Amy gets her period and thinks about the issue of bearing an heir for her family. Amy considers adopting a child and passing it off as her own but is immediately repulsed at the idea of using children as tools.

Amy's husband found the mansion's gardener and one of the maids having a tryst in his bedroom. He was furious and kicked the two out without even letting them take their belongings. Amy, taking pity on them, retrieves their belongings and returns them, as well as giving them her jewelry and even the buttons on her dress to sell for money. Amy privately admits that she's doing this because she wants to do for other people the things no one would do for her as part of her revenge against God. The young couple is planning on going back to the gardener's hometown, and Amy gives them some advice.

Amy is still receiving treatment for her weak lungs, and the doctor warns her not to take too much medicine or else she would become too dependent on it. He also advises her to go outside more and be more social or she wouldn't live long. Amy curses him out in her head. After seeing the doctor off, she sees someone with blond hair and mistakes them for Violet, but then realizes that they are a man. She grows more and more depressed as time goes on.

After some time, Amy receives a letter from Taylor, delivered by Benedict. Taylor writes about her escape from the orphanage and how she wants to see her. Some time after this, Benedict tells Amy that Taylor is now independent and is specially entrusted with the deliveries in her area. Amy waits outside and sees Taylor, now grown, deliver her mail. Amy decides to keep living for her.

## Summary

The story follows the development of Violet and Benedict's relationship from Benedict's point of view. At first, Violet would often get turned away by clients because they were repulsed by her prosthetic arms. Benedict, while feeling unnerved by her odd nature, couldn't help but feel worried about her. He spots her out in town one day, clearly lost but unwilling to ask for help. He calls out to her and gives her a ride back to the postal company. Violet tries to pay him back, but he refuses, so she asks if she could count on him to give her rides for her work. He agrees.

Another time, Benedict, while in a café, sees Violet walking outside in the rain. He silently invites her to take a break, but she declines. He waves her goodbye, and she waves back, which surprises him. He remarks on how neither of them would have waved at each other in the beginning. Some time later, Violet brings Taylor to Hodgins and Benedict and asks them to help find Isabella York. Benedict can't say no to her and agrees.

One day, Violet visits Benedict's apartment for the first time, reminding him that they promised to find a gift for Hodgins to give him on the anniversary of CH Postal Company's founding. The two of them had gone drinking the day before, and Benedict had drunkenly talked about his gratitude towards Hodgins for taking him in. Violet ended up bringing him back home. As time went on, the two grew closer and closer, to the point of even attending a wedding between two coworkers together. Looking at the two of them in a mirror, Benedict remarks that they truly did look like siblings. Benedict thinks about how Violet changed him and how precious she is to him. He makes Violet promise to tell him when she gets married. Violet agrees.

Ann points out that this whole area belongs to her, so he couldn't have had business nearby. The client admits that he came here specifically to see her. Ann, flustered, invites him in for tea, but he declines. He apologizes for not bringing a gift and says that he just wants to wish her happy birthday. Ann hears the voice of her mother telling her to not be afraid of love. She reaches out and grabs the client's jacket, asking if he would like to eat the sweets she baked with her outside. Her mother writes in this year's letter that she has the right to be loved and that she should be happy.

Intense

**Intense** (インテンス, *Intensu*?) is the city where Violet fought in the war. During the war, in the Leidenschaftlich Army, Gilbert's unit was assigned to stage an attack on the enemy's headquarters, the success of which could mean the end of the war. Gilbert's unit suffers heavy casualties in the assault, but they are able to seize headquarters and signal the main force to attack. Defeated, the enemy army bombs their own headquarters, resulting in the end of the war.

## Overview

   The mountain ranges that penetrate the continent at east and west and the ones extending from north to south cross one another in the central part of the mainland and become one. Since the place looked like the world’s spine as seen from anywhere in the surroundings, it was thought in the Old Genesis mythology to be the backbone of the Great Land’s Mother Goddess as she created the continent by lying down.

It is also the origin of many fountainheads of rivers that extend to all over the continent, and from that it was thought to be a source that brought fertility to the earth. Furthermore, as most of the central part consists of the continent’s highest mountain peaks, it is a land of faith since time immemorial and became a sacred ground the majority of the continent’s religions before anyone realized it.

## Background

On the land that resided in the highest mountain peak was built the pilgrimage city of Intense, which became one country by integrating neighboring lands, yet it was but a sacred ground open to the whole world, as well as a neutral place that did not belong to any power. However, a religious nation, the Salbert Holy State, was unable to tolerate Intense becoming a foreign country, attempting to raid it many times. For that reason, they conspired along the Galdarik Empire, which was running short on food and resources and aiming for opportunities to invade the South, forming an alliance with the involved neighboring countries and declaring war against the Southern Union.

The Galdarik Empire’s side detained Intense, which was a mountainous region, and claimed that it would rush into and occupy Leidenschaftlich in one strike, but as the Salbert Holy State had the occupation of Intense as its primary target to the very last, the military had no interest in moving out of the mountainous region, so the advancement of its attacks decreased, giving the Southern Union time to build a defense net. Additionally, although the main force of the Northern Alliance had occupied the intense, the Sarbelt Soviet Army had suspended any further attacks, so the front lines agglutinated even more.

Ctrigall

**Ctrigall** (クトリガル, *Kutorigaru*?) is a country in the northernmost nation of the Telsis Continent. Majority of the time, it is in the subarctic zone, which makes the entirety of it cold. However, during summer, the temperatures rise to the extent that agricultural production is possible, so there are people living in it as well. Furthermore, since the various countries of the Northern Alliance are blessed with underground resources, the living standards of the residents are kept relatively high by exporting them to neighboring countries. However, this gave place to discord amongst many surrounding nations, and there was no small amount of countries that do not think well of Ctrigall from behind the scenes.

## Overview

During the Continental War, Ctrigall continuously made profits as exporters of resources, so several domestic factions wished for the warfare to go on. As the war ended and abundant and inexpensive resources started being imported from the South, the profits of the other countries drastically declined, therefore, the pro-war-continuation factions remained active and set up a civil war against the government, which had accepted peace.

In opposition to this, neighboring countries dispatched troops together while claiming it to be for the sake of public order, and soldiers from the Republic of Sorbas stationed troops at the Menace Camp, located along a border at the southeast end of Ctrigall. There was a base belonging to the war advocacy faction in the proximities of the Menace Camp, and, as the current main purpose was the mission of surveilling it, the camp did not house not many units.

## Trivia

* This is the place where Aidan fought against anti-peace extremists.
* Ctrigall seems to take inspiration from Russia
	+ Ctrigall's environment parallels with Russia's Cold Northern Climate
	+ The Transcontinental Railroad could be an allusion to the Trans-Siberian Railway
	+ The recent civil war correlates with the Russian Civil War
	+ Many civilians appear to be wearing the traditional Ushanka caps and Shuba Coats

Lechernt

**Lechernt** (レッヘルント, *Rehherunto*?) is located in the southeast of Telsis Continent. It makes borders with Bociaccia and the Salbert Holy State in the north, Rallentando in the south and Vivace in the west, and along with Bociaccia and Rallentando, belongs to a group of nations that had declared neutrality. Moreover, the continent’s largest lake bases itself in the east of the country, and as the border with the Salbert Holy State was a mountain range and the latter’s main purpose was to invade Intense, unlike Bociaccia, Lechernt did not become a battlefield in the previous Great War. All it did was dispatch troops to Bociaccia, and casualties occurred.

## Overview

The climate is mild and the land is fertile and blessed with water resources owing to its lake, thus the agricultural productivity is high. However, the population is not too large in comparison to the amount of land that stretches along the leveled hilly territory, and a countryside-like bucolic landscape spreads throughout the whole nation. Additionally, it had eventually stood on the side of the Southern Union during the war, so trading with Leidenschaftlich had begun to become active, and various supplies came to flow in.

## Places

* **Anne's House** (アンの家, *Anne no Katei*?) is located approximately in the middle of the central part of Lechernt. Anne lived in a mansion owned by her mother, Clara, together with her. After her mother's death, Anne received custody of the house when she became an adult, and came to live in that mansion with her husband and daughter.

Bart Town

## History:

The hometown of Widowmaker and Gérard, Bart Town is the largest town in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Located on the banks of Lake Bart Town, Bart Town gives a vibe of timelessness, as if one has stepped back two centuries.

## Basic overview:

The object of Bart Town is to capture the opponent's base. in order to do this, one must first capture the middle point. The middle point is open at all times, and the team that loses the middle point cannot take the enemy's base, though they may attempt to retake the middle point. if the middle point is recaptured, the team that recaptures the point can attempt to take the other team's base, while their base becomes locked and safe from attack.

### The Middle Point:

The middle point of Bart Town is the town hall, flanked by a coffee shop on one side and a bank on the other. approaching from the red team's base, the coffee shop will be on the right. the red team must press through the front of the Town Hall and into the capture point, while the Blue Team may take the backdoor. each entrance has two hallways similar to those at Hanamura, with a overhead balcony on the right-hand side from the front door. Once the Middle Point is captured, the victorious team must press on to the opponent's base.

### Red Team's base:

The Red Team's base is a graveyard. in the center of the capture point is a Monument featuring a man with long hair. The capture point is surrounded with 2.5 meter high fences on top of 1-meter tall stone walls. an open gate allows access to the Graveyard leading from the town hall. The Red Team spawns in the mausoleum at the back of the Graveyard, outside the capture point.

### Blue Team's Base:

The Blue Team's Base is the entrance to a harbor on Lake Bart Town. A 4 meter high stone wall surrounds the entrance to the harbor, behind which is the capture point. People can fall off a ledge approximately 5 meters from the capture point on the opposite side from the entrance. The entrance is approximately 4 meters wide. The Blue team spawns at a Bait Shop about 15 meters back from the capture point on the left-hand side if looking out to Lake Bart Town.

## Easter Eggs:

* In The Red Team's capture point next to the monument, there are two graves. one says "Here lies Amélie Lacrox, a wonderful woman." and the other says "Here lies Gérard Lacrox, a devoted husband." the date of death for Amélie is two weeks before the date of death for Gérard.
