I was also surprised by it, though it does fit Annie's character. She's happy to hurt people, pleads for her life, fights when she must, hides when she can, and is often putting herself in danger. Seems like a conservative, predatory mindset in development.
Typed up my intro for the cursed and it erased....now to start over and hopefully remember everything that I put in it. Azi and Duncan, you can also go ahead and intro. Just start with how the curse appeared and where they are now. I’ll try and get mine up soon.
