How old is Penance in comparison to Vigil? We finished reading the Il Siracusano event, and was wondering if she's more of an older sister type or mother type to him. In the story, she is seen telling him to eat his vegetables.
Age doesn't seem to be really defined for either of them, but in Vigil's Archive File 3 states: "In order to avoid complicated rumors, after Penance joined Rhodes Island, Vigil would introduce her to the other operators as a big sister figure. While Penance has not really admitted to this point, she has also not gone out of her way to deny it."
In addition to that, it also says: ""In any case, Doctor, I see Penance as a superbly upstanding person. For her to be able to hold onto her ideals in a place like Siracusa is an incredibly rare and precious thing. Plus, my mother passed away at a young age, and my father... though we didn't have a bad relationship by any means, there were certain things that I could not easily share with him, so..." He suddenly showed some hesitation and paused for a while when he got to this point, before finally continuing: "When I was still relatively young, she played both an older sister role, as well as...""
Penance's file doesn't seem to state anything about their relationship, but from what I can gather, she seems to be more of a big sister type to him.
In terms of their ages, this is just a little assumption here, since Vigil's combat experience is listed as 8 years, I'm assuming that due to his mafia upbringing, his "experience" started in his early-mid teens, putting him around 22-24. For Penance, if we go by how long it takes to become a lawyer in Italy (Google says 5 years), and how old Italians are when they enter college (Google says 19), I think it's safe to say she was at least 24 when she actually became a lawyer, however, I'm not Italian so I can't really tell you if those numbers accurate. Considering that Penance is seemingly established as a lawyer, I'm making the assumption that she's in her late 20s to early 30s.
Fun fact: in the time it took me to research and type this all out, my Cloudflare verification or whatever expired lmao.
