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 woman, but she is truly kind, and appreciated as a virtuous and loving soul by even the most critical. She is the first person in the town to offer the Bachelor a place to stay. She is intrigued by death and does not seem to fear it. However, she does fear the plague, as well as the Ripper. She seems to be troubled by aging.

She has little modesty about her body, and doesn't mind striking up casual relationships. She admires the Bachelor and Yulia Lyuricheva; Yulia and Eva both speak of each other very highly. She gets along well with the Stamatins, and both of the twins say she has greatly supported their ideas from the beginning. She is in a romantic relationship with Andrey Stamatin, though if asked about it he says she loves whoever else she chooses, suggesting that their relationship is open.

Portrait 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
