okay this is something very bizarre but it is still AU April so please hear me out

Aria canonically originates from an era referred to as the age of fairytales, which would imply it’s not actually real but its events are believed to have taken place, a very long time ago. One of the hallmarks of this age is a great war which was only survived by a select few individuals, who then had to escape the site of the war and make a new life for themselves in another faraway world.

In attempting to find a non-KH parallel to that, and also in considering how real-world timescales match up with the series of events,

why does that make it sound like she’s from the Iliad??? Or, more generally, the Trojan War???
