I'd say Maria was our big candidate as well. Although that fact's never really sat too well with me; a grown woman, a queen no less, sang as if she was a child.

If it is Maria I'm hoping for an explanation regarding the apparent regression of her psyche (e.g. "Not knowing anything of the outside world is fine / If that's what you wish" isn't very "I am queen of this land now I'll lie to everyone to make mama and papa live again while being fully aware that this whole situation is effed up.") because it sure as heck doesn't seem as clean cut as a regular case of reincarnation amnesia (e.g. The Wonder Twins ) - I don't think magic dolls work quite the same as regular bodies in that regard; it took Eve  a self-hypnosis before she could consider herself "reincarnating" in that thing. Plus there'd be the matter of how Maria would even reincarnate to begin with - since she's likely not a god-kin (she could be though, I'm not ruling it out). If she really did just trip and her soul fell into the doll I don't think we can know how just yet.

So yeah I'd say Maria too as of right now, but I'm stull stuck on the how of things to be honest.
