i imagine that she's like a homunculus or something since she got out of "the forest", also she's speaking about the forest as if she escaped from there and it's horrible there, and everything she knows about the duke is from her mother so her mother might be the duke's stalker and the mother's a witch.
the author intentionally left out important infos about her existence since she's not isekaid or reincarnated and yet her mind is already fully "matured" just to make it "interesting" and somewhat "mysterious" since this type of story already has successful series like who made me a princess and daughter of the emperor
