If Eve's still around by then, sure, but it'd kind of ambiguous atm.

Got a look at two different scenes, A bit of Chapter 7, Scene 1 and Chapter 6, Scene 5.

First the Chapter 7 scene (well, what I could get out of it).


 * Elluka was apparently taken to a hospital in Aceid and recovered. They're on their way back to town, it would seem. She doesn't seem to be fully healed, as her side still hurts.


 * Toragay's a ghost town, in quarantine, and the world police are trying to keep everything contained. If any survivor leaks out, the sixth Gift could spread until every human in the world is "asleep/dead".


 * This is where a lot of the Gift PV quotes take place. Elluka comments about how awful Toragay looks. During the carriage ride, Gumillia reports what she learned while Elluka was out of it.


 * Margarita's corpse had disappeared and she thoroughly searched "Shadow's" mansion, only to find no Doll. Elluka figures that Venom may have cleaned up the scene.


 * Elluka's also made the connection that Bruno is in league with Pere Noel (idk why). For obvious reasons, the world police would be unable to get to him because of his Freesis Foundation connections.


 * Gumillia also found that there's another Julia Abelard living in Lucifenia, an aristocrat, apparently.

Now, I was a bit confused by some of the statements here so I went back to look over the parts of Chapter 6 I didn't get. This is what I could mine:


 * Elluka concludes that Julia isn't the mage with the red cat, as they haven't seen a red cat anywhere around the mansion during their conversation through it.


 * Four the Shadow reintroduces herself (picks up her skirt and bows too) and states she is a disciple of the real I. the Santa.

She's the one that's been meeting with Caspar/Margarita. She's the one who caused the Lioness Burning Incident (though she was a "novice" then). She's the one that's been the mayor of Calgaround. She's the one posing as "Elluka". She's the one who put Hanne on her quest. All under Julia's orders.


 * Four the Shadow then faces Gumillia's magic-enhanced revolver and they fight before her death as a plateau flower.

That explains why Four is named Mayrana. It's another MEIKO pun, though I still can't find anything clarifying whether Shadow had disguised herself as Julia, or if she actually happens to share Julia's appearance. Still, interesting to see Irina training another person in magical arts.
