Travelling through space for several millennium, Anna Papij collected sound frequencies, stories, and photos, from across the galaxies. After crash landing on Earth, she salvaged these treasures, and now spends her time sprinkling them across the planet for other lost souls.
Misc:
On Earth, Anna likes coffee and cats. She can sometimes be seen gazing at the sky searching for home.
