Eva Yan

Eva Yan (Ева Ян) is the owner of the "Stillwater"—the house that the Bachelor boards in after first arriving in the town.

Description
Eva is an odd, ethereal woman, but she is truly kind, and appreciated as a virtuous and loving soul by even the most critical. She is intrigued by death and does not seem to fear it. However, she does fear the plague, as well as the Ripper.

She has little modesty about her body, and doesn't mind striking up casual relationships. She greatly admires the Bachelor and Yulia Lyuricheva, and gets along well with the Stamatins and the lady aristocrats of the Town.

Quotes
"She came to love my creation when it was but a sketch. People are often astonished by it, but rarely is it met with love. Even the children merely tolerate it. Loving an edifice like this demands vivid and outstanding imagination..."

- Peter Stamatin's take on her "Eva possesses some virtues that my daughter, unfortunately, does not. She is gentle. She is trustworthy. She wouldn't ever stoop to betrayal. She could be the Soul of a Focus, were she not enamored of death so bizarrely and persistently."

- Victor Kain's take on her
