Ani Fielinya

Ani Fielinya Olmero is the wife of Val, sister of Logui Fielinya-Olmero, and the former Chief Censor in Sylvania. With her earliest memories as a child being in a village named Ilothwii, Ani grew up without knowing her parents or much of the outside world. Through a few coincidences, she ended up in the position to which Ani now devotes her life to.

Early Life
Ani was most likely born in Ilothwii, a village located in Midjor. Her childhood was uneventful as Ani stays oblivious to the things going on overseas.

The Catgirl Cafe
Through coincidence, Ani found an advert for a Catgirl Cafe in the boardwalk. Deciding then that she had a better chance of finding her parents outside of Midjor and especially somewhere that might have cat people, she packed her bags.

Surprise Diplomacy
Right before her departure, Ani was approached by a few people from Midjor's government at the time. It was then that tales of Aristios and their cruel ways was revealed to her, with the person behind it all Otto at the center. Being naïve and impressionable, Ani started to harbor a great disdain towards anything related to the aforementioned nation. She became a spy for Midjor to Aristios.

Pompaelo
She started working for Lizzie's Catgirl Cafe, restocking drinks and foods in the back. Ani was happy as there are many of her feline kind in the Cafe. Frequent travel to Varn Torum also taught her more about things outside her little universe growing up.

Another coincidence occurred when Lizzie recruited Ani to her town in Aristios, and through Lizzie, Ani got herself a small home in Pompaelo, Aristios' Catgirl Capital. Slowly, the town grew, and with that came chaos. Blazing was a resident of Pompaelo, known initially as a ratist, which made Ani's first impression of the man quite negative. There she also met Logui, who grew up with a Kumiho mother in Ruma. Apparently he has suffered a curse that turn him into a birdman, he won't tell how or why, and she did not ask. They grew close quickly, bonding over various things, and little did both of them know at the time, that they were siblings. Logui at the time lived in Ani's basement as he was the person who was originally commissioned to build the house she lived in Pompaelo.

The Cat Massacre of October
Another gift from Lizzie was a calico cat Ani lovingly named Komiko, it followed her everywhere she went. One sudden day in October, Komiko along with the other cats in town suddenly went missing. Lizzie and Ani were devastated, they went searching all over town in vain. Ani started crying as Blazing reveals, that he had hidden all of them. Ani went in a frenzy to find her beloved Komiko to no avail. She then found out Wize_Nifty had told Blazing to kill Komiko. In a moment of anger, Ani decides to start a trial against Blazing after severely injuring him with the assistance of Logui.

The trial began with Logui as Ani's lawyer and Dracon, a man from the nearby town Loss as Blazing's Lawyer. It essentially went nowhere as the girl was mostly screaming at her opponent and them screaming back. At some point during the trial, everyone collectively realized that there are no actual laws in Pompaelo, and so the trial was held back.

Calm Before the Storm
Lizzie and Ani started writing the law book for Pompaelo, which reminded Ani about her true mission in Aristios, not to make friends or be a fisher, but to be a spy.

One day while walking down the streets, Ani saw a child looking lost. Her name was Alia and her father, Dracon had forgotten her in the city after the trial, Ani adopted the child. From then on, Alia lived with Ani and Logui.

Ani started paying more attention to the ongoings of Aristios outside of their little town. Along with dot and Lizzie, Ani became a senator for Pompaelo. With the fear of being discovered lingering in her mind, Ani rarely spoke about the affairs of the government and quietly observed things to report back to Midjor.

Aristios' Civil War
Ani was informed about the coup that was about to happen a few days before, as Dot and Lizzie had been involved in the planning and talks of said event. Crows had been used to exchange the letters sent by Commonwealth members. The exact dates and timing of the coup hadn't been communicated with her, and so the news of Otto being overthrown came to Ani on a sleepy afternoon she spent most of the time prior dozing off. After quickly packing her bags and being accompanied by Logui, she traveled to Noxwind, Sylvania.

The Commonwealth
A meeting took place in Sylvania, the situation was chaotic as expected. It was there that Ani met the colorful characters she would later on get to know quite well. This meeting in Sylvania was recorded by Ani in secret and sent back to Midjor. This began the struggle she had with herself on whether things should continue this way now that Otto is no longer in the picture.

Saphera
Returning Pompaelo, Lizzie suddenly announced a sudden move of the town to a place South of Noxwind. The culprit behind this was the influences of a man we now refer to as Cringefex. Being skeptical of the man, Ani was unhappy with the move. Luckily through a few incidents, the gang moved back to their home in Castellum.

Senatorship
After the turbulent times of the Civil War have passed, Ani became a senator with Logui joining. The two worked together on their first bill to try and keep the non serious matter out of government. The intent presented was that it was distracting, but really this bill was made with the objective of being able to bring information back to Midjor more easily. She also picked up a habit of calling people by Mr, this treatment was enforced upon Sir. Lad (Now Mr. Lad) and **𝓩 (Now Mr. Z), this is not done purely out of respect, but rather comedy.

The First Census
Attempting to weasel her way up in the government, Ani got a job from Inverse with the help of Logui, and so her first Census begins. She was employed to first ask every governor about the towns in the province, then check every citizen that lives there. A census form was then made to determine the number of citizens every town will get. This is when several observations were made by Ani, 1. Most governors totally sucked, 2. Most of Aristios was empty, and 3. She enjoys this job.

For some reasons unexplainable to herself, Ani was fretting over people in Aristios’ government losing their position and pushed everyone about getting their citizens to do the census harder. This was the second notable instance of her feelings for the people of Aristios and her inner turmoil growing more noticeable.

Chief Censor/Information
A misunderstanding happened around January when Echo, Aristios' Chancellor at the time pushed out a census without Ani's knowledge. After clearing it up, an official role was made for her to be in charge of census business in Aristios, called the Chief Censor.

Aristios’ Catgirl Capital
Pompaelo despite being famous (or infamous, depending on perspective) for being the catgirl capital was not relevant or an often touched upon topic until this point. Our story begins after a senate meeting in late November, along with Inverse, Logui, and Sir. Lad, Ani traveled back to Pompaelo. At this time, Ani was frightened of both Inverse and Sir. Lad, she saw them as cunning people, which means being near them could cause her to be discovered sooner.

Inverse originally came from the same town, a long time before Ani had been in Aristios, an infamous man like him had many tales to tell and they were content to learn more. In the middle of their conversation, the group saw two people wandering near the walls of Pompaelo, it seems words of a certain catgirl capital had traveled far, and the man had gone on a journey to seek it. With Lizzie not being present and maid dresses and drinks lying around, a maid catgirl cafe was impromptu on the spot by Logui and Ani while their fellow government members watched in amusement.

That day, drinks were sold, customers were entertained, and realizations were made. With Ani’s catgirl persona (that might have not been a persona) and Logui’s advertising skills, there was potential for the Catgirl Cafe. After getting permission from Lizzie and being introduced to her supplier, Holl0ster from Varn Torum, the cafe prospered.

Noxwind Party
This period in time is when Ani and Pafric first truly noticed each other. A night right after their weekly senate meeting, Pafric had noticed Ani humming a tune, they then began a conversation long into the night about their various common interests. The two would part the next day, but this is not the end of this story.

After the catgirl cafe event, Ani started to relax more about the Lad and traveled back to Noxwind for a few days, she got to hang out and talk more to him and the guilt about spying starts to hit harder. The Noxwind party happened a few days later in early December, Ani had too much fun and a dizzying amount of Alcohol was ingested, she decided to completely resign from being Midjor’s spy.

Meeting Pafric again in Sylvania, the story resumes as the two spent time together during Ani's stay at Sylvania. A proposal was made from Pafric, and in return, Ani accepted. The two were happily married a few days after at Kalisgrado Shop.

Confession
Right after Azad's fall, a night was spent together with Ani and Sir.Lad on the roof of a building in Isothonikos. Many conversations were exchanged under the moonlight, and somewhere along the way, Ani being a spy was mentioned. Mulling over the newly acquired information for a bit, Sir. Lad decided to trust her still.

Tours across Eldham
In the times they had spent together, Ani being curious about the world and history of things had ask Sir. Lad to tell the many tales he had about the empires and nations from past to present, along with these tales were journeys across the world to see the sights that could not be conveyed by words alone. Bustling cities, silent ruins, and subdued ocean waves, all were seen and journeyed together by the two.

Drunken Catgirl
Working at the Catgirl Cafe, Logui often advertised it to many travelers from afar, one of those was a woman who called herself the Drunken Catgirl. The first time they saw, she immediately recognized Ani as her daughter. In the times of her youth, Drunken had apparently seen a nobleman traveling the world at the time, and it was then Ani learned the identity of her father, Oliver Olmero.

Olmero
This description of a traveling nobleman seemed to stir something in Logui as well, and so they went to meet said man. At the time, Oliver was a government official in Aristios, and they had met several times before. He confirmed the relationship between them, Logui and Ani then found out they are siblings. The Fielinya branch of Olmero was established by Logui to include the two siblings, their spouses, and children.

Novapolis
Lizzie, the governor of Castellum at the time left for a journey far away to rid herself of burdens from Aristios, left the province in Ani's care. Logui at the time was also the governor of Novapolis, the two decided to trade places as Ani had a hard time handling business relating to being a governor. Did this not went well as Ani slacked off on her job, traveled to Noxwind, and spent a majority of her time hanging out around Sir.Lad, who she now refers to as Lacchan.

Hanging around Sir. Lad in his keep slowly leads to Ani making and decorating a small space within. This "small" place slowly leads to her decorating two floors of the keep, making the place drastically different from people's expectations walking into a dictator's living space.

Mugen
Ani's brother Logui was kidnapped by Mugen one day in Spring. This caused her great distress and sadness, and after a few days sitting around and writing to keep her mind off of things, she packed her bags and went on her ways to get him.

Arriving at the mines, Ani was thrown in a cell where she met Nim, a guard with lifeless and tired eyes. With nothing to do, she talked to him about many things, the two slowly fell in love, and planned an escape. On the way up and out, they passed through a room with Delta and Logui, Ani then witnessed things more disturbing than anything the mines had to offer.

Ani and Nim escaped back to Pompaelo and got married. They also discovered the fact that Logui had married Delta in the mines, she did not, and could not judged for they had both developed a love for their captors.

Zarissia
The idea of merging with Zamotz was initially brought up by Inverse, Ani was fully against it as her first impression of people from there was not the greatest. Strongly protesting the idea of getting bigger and the two nations being one. Her thoughts were changed quickly due to the persuasions of certain people involved. Zamotz then joined the Iris Confederation for a short period to gauge how the two nations would feel working closely with each other. This period was rushed, and the votes for Aristios - Zamotz merge were once again proposed by both nations. Several complications occurred as there were allegations of votes being manipulated between both anti and pro mergers. The final vote for Zamotz to decide was made by Ani, with the results being 82.4% In favor, Aristios - Zamotz merged.

Senators
A census was also made and managed by Ani to determine Zamotz's approximate population and their senator, presumably to appease the people in government, Zamotz's census was a lot less strict than Aristios' usual ones. With 43 people answering the census, Zamotz had half of Aristios' population at the time. Despite this, Aristios and Zamotz had an equal amount of senators.

National Census
When Aristios and Zamotz were merged, a census came soon after. The criteria for census submissions to count included a record existing at the immigration office, certain governors were unhappy with this as there were many people who lived in provinces without actual immigration records. Without the unregistered citizens, there are less people existing officially in government records, which means less senator seats, and less representation for certain provinces regarding voting on bills. As the tension already existed within the government, this event furthers the rift between the two sides.

Names
At the time, people thought having a name instead of Aristios - Zamotz will help with the government being practically on two opposing sides. During talks of the merge, Zarissia was proposed as a name and seemingly agreed upon, until it was not. Several names were proposed, and ultimately through a senate vote that was done incorrectly and messed up by Ani, Paradisnia was the nation's name for a week. A sizable amount of people were unhappy with the name, and things quickly got heated. A recount of the votes put Zarissia as the official name of Aristios - Zamotz.

The End of Zarissia
Seeing how any attempt to quell the tension with Zarissia's government was futile, Sir.Lad proposed a bill to officially end the union. "The End of Zarissia" passed within the senate on the 2nd of May with 63.6% In Favor. It was shown that all Zamotz Senators have voted for this bill.

The End of Aristios
Tension have been building up in the government once again, this time between the East and Western provinces of Aristios. Some people by now have noticed the effects of a bill passed during Zarissia times titled "Crown of the East". This bill made some of the more monarchical parts of Bel-Ismer (Already clashing with the other side of Aristios often for such reasons) equal and even a bit more powerful that the elected governor due to being able to do anything a governor can and not needing to be elected.

Funtime in Sylvania
The stress with dealing with constant bickering between members of Aristios' government led Ani to slowly spend more of her time in Sylvania. On one of those days, being dissatisfied with the festivities back home, she invited the Archduke of Riverheim Eddax and Sylvania's Supreme Judge Val for drinks after a Senate meeting. With the latter having to excuse himself for some business he had to attend to, this leads to the two later hanging out privately together at Pompaelo as to make up the time. They ended up in a basement closet together after a tour around Ani's place, and Val stayed the night. Sitting on the roof together with the sun rising in the distance, Ani's heart fluttered at the sight.

Aristios' Final Chancellor Election
With the Chancellor election coming up once again, Ani with her fellow Information Department member Michael was heavily stressed out planning and preparing. This caused Ani to spend much of her free time in Sylvania with her newfound lover. Bonding over various matters such as having to be the unbias party in the respective nations and having basically the same job descriptions. Drifting closer to Val and Sylvania, and drifting further from Aristios, Ani thought about various possibilities of what ifs regarding her position in the nation and Castellum. Talking to Logui and Lacchan, it seemed as though the possibility of Castellum being a part of Sylvania is not slim.

Beginning of the end
A few hours before the Chancellor debate begins, The Republic of Sanctus and The Dominion of Bel-Ismer declared independence from Aristios. A government meeting was summoned in a panic and everyone hurried towards the capital.
