Apparently, she was the last member of a long noble dynasty, the roots of which went back to the Middle Ages; the last notorious member of that family was the former Duke in question.
The most elderly in town remembered plenty of stories about the Duke. Some were vouched by tenths of villagers who swore they were true and some were just wild speculations and legends that, still, everyone listened with a quiet reverence, like they feared that they might actually have happened.
