I always thought of her more like the Fayth from FFX. She's a ghost that exists as a body for someone dreaming.

Started Legend of the Galactic Heroes (14/07/23), pray for me.
On several occasions I've seen people talk about how Chaldea summoned Anastasia canonically before Lostbelt 1. Can anyone confirm that?
I know she's showed up in events that seem to take place before the events of Part 2, but there's a bunch of other factors that make placing those in the timeline difficult. I've seen some speculation that it's an alternate timeline situation where those events occur instead of the lostbelts, but I'm not sure about the veracity of those claims either. I think her interlude might also contribute to that idea?
The fact that nobody in Chaldea recognizes her during the Part 2 prologue and LB1 would contradict this, but that could also just be a main story/event divide or just sloppy writing.

BB fucks around with time
I know she's in the Sparrow's Inn event, but that takes place well into Part 2, so it's not relevant to this topic.
Hmm. I guess I can't really think of any others off the top of my head. Seems like I remembered her being in more than she actually has been.
Drake is there too according to Extra.

Something like, both Arthur and Drake will return (from Avalon and from the sea) to promise victory to Britain
Oh god, Extra Rider will turn out to be Queen Elizabeth and the real Francis Drake who replaced her as queen is Arthuria returned.
The Virgin Queen is a lie
Some thoughts to add. There are several accounts that give Fionn a definitive end. Most of them involve someone named Aiclech mac Dubdrenn beheading him in battle, but one account has Fionn killing himself. In that account, Fionn tried jumping across the River Boyne, but failed and ended up banging his head on a rock, after which he fell into the river and drowned. There's a slightly different version where Fionn hitting his head on the rock is what killed him and his body was washed away by the river. Either way, Aiclech later found his body and beheaded him. There are people and creatures that can survive in Irish mythology (and other Celtic mythologies) after their heads have been cut off, but Fionn wasn't one of them. And, at least from what I can tell, there don't appear to be any 'going away to Avalon' equivalents for Fionn among these accounts.
All that said, the myth of Fionn and his Fianna waiting to return is pretty popular, so it's really bizarre for Type-Moon to not use it.
