Annalisa
Annalisa is Zya's niece and the rightful Head of House. When Zya tells her to send you back to the library, Annalisa ignores her and retorts that she and Aunt Elise leech off her success and to not talk to either of you that way.

Elise
Elise is Zya's sister or sister-in-law. She is the more friendly and respectful of the two, and usually balances Zya's rude behavior.

Vasco
Vasco has been Annalisa and your House's steward for many years. It does not appear to cross his mind that Zya should become the temporary Head of House while Annalisa is indisposed.

Your Character
In Chapter 1, Zya looks down upon your entrance into their home, calling you the black sheep of the family and a stray that Annalisa's parents had the misfortune to adopt. In Chapter 3, Zya barges into your room, demanding to know what you are doing. She tells you that you are not Annalisa and you've entered into courtly politics that you have no experience with and have not been raised for. She also tells you that Annalisa's blind doting love for you has always been one of her weaknesses. She does not give you any kudos for having a successful Noble debut and getting your House recognized.

Trivia

 * Her character model resembles an older Sei Rhuka from The Crown & The Flame series.
