[edit] Etymology
Anastasia is a girl's name of Greek origin. It means "resurrection" or "she who shall rise up again", a reference to Velis's soul being reborn in the sword. Anastasia is best known as the name of Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova, daughter of Tsar Nicholas II. According to legend, she survived the murder of the Russian royal family by the Bolsheviks and continued to live on afterwards (though as of 2008, it has been determined that she was in fact killed along with the rest of her family). This plot has been the subject of numerous works of fiction, including a 1997 Fox Animation movie, Anastasia.
