“While it is clear that this legend is connected to a real historical figure, it is unclear how much of it is accurate. From various sources[3], there seem to be 16 distinct incidents of Lorelei's deaths which are reasonably well conserved, starting with her assassination by Vermillion Ambrose, and continuing into the modern day. The only explanation for this extrordinary longevity would be for her to have spent the majority of the time in interstellar travel, although this seems unlikely given the stories surrounding her after around 684PE focus almost exclusively on the Prontaium system, reputed home of her Primrose Cult.

A more plausible explanation would be that several of the supposed assassins were attempting to take advantage of the legend's popularity to attain more personal fame. Needless to say, this has had considerably diminishing returns as the number of reported deaths has increased.”
