Yay, more lore to make me more confused about the timeliness, unless they add dates(which I hope they will).

Looking back on this trailer with more attention and thanks to the first chapter of AoM, I think we can make guesses about her story. Aside from the fact that she is obviously grown up Alice, the video suggests that something happened to her parents (and presumably Orpheus) when they were living in the manor together. Alice is probably the daughter of the baron and baroness while Orpheus was adopted by them, but that's just my idea based on some other lore informations. After this incident which apparently killed their parents, Alice was left deeply scarred due to witnessing their deaths or the horrors that unfolded that day. The trauma led to her being sent to an orphanage/asylum for children. This asylum disguised as an orphanage seems to be the same one Gardener (Emma Woods) was sent to as a child, and where she endured mistreatment and brutal experimentations. The scenes where you see "Little Girl" being bullied and sitting on a chair with a helmet suggest this. Orpheus, her adoptive older brother, apparently tried to get her back but the hospital refused to let Alice leave nor even let him visit her. They explained through letter that Alice was still suffering and in a catatonic state, but Orpheus knew these were all lies. We learn this in Novelist's birthday letter. We know that after leaving the orphanage, Alice became a reporter. One of her first investigations was the accident from the Golden Cave (linked to Norton's backstory) and she managed to interview Norton (she might actually be the unknown journalist questioning him in one of his birthday letters). This same letter confirms that she participated in the final game as an adult along with Melly, Orpheus and Norton.

0:34 how I feel about random little girl players

[MsMeals]

I think that the journalist was once a girl who lost her family in a tragedy, however she was painted as the one responsible through lies and rumors. She became a journalist in order to help those like her and hopefully uncover the truth behind her parents’ death.

Silly, isn't the incident she's investigating at the mines in the beginning the one Norton went through?

[veebehamfil]

Been an Alice enjoyer since Day 1, I'm gatekeeping her from the people who simp for her but hate Memory, like they're the same person and a package deal so you can't cherry pick on them /hj. ;)

[nightdog]

I'm so excited to finally play as her and know more lore, holy clues.
