Elena Mortinova

Wise and cunning, she knows how to deceive anyone and turn any situation to her advantage. She's strict, but not always fair. He understands style and always dresses chicly.

Mortinova had an unhappy childhood, but this didn't stop her from earning the highest degree and gaining knowledge even in ancient horology—a subject she's adept at mastering to perfection. She remained devoted to Norton Ognev Sr. to the end, so much so that she was willing to kill his daughter to save his life.

Each of the dolls in Elena's collection was once stolen from new students by the headmistress of the School of Bright Hours herself. Through them, she learned the secrets and pasts of the watchmaking families. Among them is a doll once given to Vasilisa by her mother, the White Queen. However, this doll never told Elena a word about the Ognev family or Lissa and remained severely mutilated at the hands of Mortinova. It's ironic that Elena was supposed to inhabit Vasilisa's body and take the throne of Time along with Astragor in Fash's body. Hates the fairy race. There is a scar on her left breast that was left by the White Queen. Elena, according to Rodion Hardius, is "completely obsessed" with clocks—in her castle, Ruby Spire, even the toilet lids are shaped like clocks. Mistress Mortinova is a dangerous opponent. Her collection includes the clockwork arrows of all those she has defeated in combat.
