The matchmaking system is described as a kind of soulmate finding ritual, nobody knows it's actually just the leaders' decision. The reason they paired the two was because Angel (Helia formerly) was the most faithful and hardworking member of her age at the time, and Selene was the most troublesome one.

So it was basically like assigning the seats to the suckup and the rebellious kid in the class next to each other.

Even after escaping, Angel keeps this mindset, feeling responsible for the behaviour of others, specially those she cares about, and has this need to help with other's problems to prove herself a good person/friend. It's both a self image and self worth issue.

I renamed Dahlia Juno and made her the leader of the cult. She's not their mother anymore but acts like one to the girls + all the other girls there. She treats Angel like the golden child to make her do what she wants. She's not as kind to Selene.

Marcel is no longer her dad, but one of the many kind townspeople Angel makes friends with along her journey with Isaac. He's still a tailor and he's the one to make her green dress :]

Edward is the human brothers' father and he's scary and abusive as he's always been. He's a general making his oldest son (or in his eyes, only son) follow his footsteps in the military

This is Stanley, he's new. You've already seen him in a previous comic. He's the dad/general's petty advisor that no one takes seriously. Appreciate my friend drawing him as Cuphead Stickler
