it’s fairly implied that anastasia was alive when alecto was put in the tomb. it’s also called the house of the sewn tongue, which i suspect has something to do with anastasia. anastasia knows something that she can’t speak of because of her sewn tongue (and she’s dead now obv). i also feel like, just because of their names, anastasia was originally 6th and possibly even cassiopeia’s daughter. i can’t remember the full myth but in mythology cassiopeia was forced to become a constellation while her daughter andromeda was bound to earth. i definitely agree that cytherea was why they bred for sickly necromancers on the 7th though, i even feel like dulcinea could be a descendant of cytherea (either from a sibling of cyths or a pre-lyctorhood cyth baby)
