Anna’s Discovery in Swan’s Grave Chapter 52 (Recap)
- Rothbart’s Deepening Obsession: The last chapter was actually quite a bit about how Marquis Rothbart Lorengreen tightened his grip on Anna’s absolute control. He continued to cast his shadow of Lianna, his lost wife, upon her, without heeding her desperate efforts to make a path back to her original world.
- The Black Wizard’s Scheme: We witnessed the black wizard, Rose, being a few steps behind Rothbart and playing some small games with him. To keep Anna isolated and totally reliant on the Marquis, she intentionally provided him with little information about the swan-summoning ritual.
- Svanhild’s Desperate Attachment: The chapter revolved around the emotions of young Svanhild who clings to Anna. Despite her mounting fear of Rothbart, Anna had to rethink her escape plans when his heart-felt, innocent request for a mother made the choice.
- The Locked Chamber: The chapter ended with Anna finding the secret rooms of the previous Marchioness. When she discovered her own modern Earth items nested inside, she couldn’t help but think that she had a terrible secret.
The Truth of the Lorengreen Estate in Swan’s Grave Chapter 53 (Spoilers)
- Anna’s Lost Memories: Swan’s Grave Chapter 53 will begin with Anna’s fragmented recollections being an intense flash. She will now finally start to understand the awful reality that she is not merely a “replacement” swan, but the same Lianna who left the Lorengreen estate years ago.
- Rothbart’s Cruel Confession: Rothbart will not comfort her, but confine her to the forbidden room. He will put aside his assumption of her identity and actually state that he knew her true identity since she was summoned back.
- The Threat of the Red Moon: With the eclipse fast approaching, Anna will frantically seek the clothes she originally wore to get out of the lake, but will find that Rothbart has destroyed all her way to get back to Earth.
- A Twisted Vow: Swan’s Grave Chapter 53 will conclude with Rothbart swearing an oath that never to let go of Svanhild or her again, definitely suggesting he’ll do anything to keep her in his grip, even if that means she’ll become permanently disabled.

Synopsis
In a dark Fantasy world, a traveller from the 21st century is inexplicably transported and becomes the house maid of the Lorengreen Marquisate, a sinister residence dubbed “The Swan’s Grave. Her life spirals out of control and the master of the house, Marquis Rothbart, assumes she’s his lost wife, and wants her to replace her. Anna reluctantly falls into a suffocating, twisted love affair, and slowly discovers the shocking truth: she may not be a replacement, after all.
Frequently Asked Questions
So, does Anna really happen to be Rothbart’s first wife, Lianna?
Yes, Anna and Lianna are one and the same. Anna gave birth to Svanhild, then left for Earth to tend to her mother’s needs but her memories of the Lorengreen Marquisate were erased. After she’d been gone a while, Rothbart summoned her back with a dark swan summoning ritual.
In the first timeline, why did Rothbart’s dad ask Anna to become pregnant?
Rothbart’s father hated him because he was a demon and, as all demons do, he would cause the death of his mother in childbirth. His father deceives Anna, pretending that she must leave the child who would inherit their power to go back to Earth, so that her son can feel her pain of saying goodbye to his Rothbart. His father fools Anna, telling her that the only stipulation for going back to Earth is that she must leave behind an heir, knowing she will eventually part with Rothbart.
