No, I haven't seen a "her" or "him" crop up so it may not have been mentioned. Not sure what Elluka did with the baby either. The only thing I couldn't extract from this is how exactly Carlos got captured by AB-CIR. Based on how to the point this is, I am sure there are more scenes and elaboration that we are missing.

Another interesting thing is Arte's remark about Joseph being similar to the man who abandoned her and the twins apparent not aging in this story. This and their connection to Gluttony and Irina makes me wish we had Act 3 already. Oh well...

The name I keep dropping for the VAOctopus is apparently the creature's real name, from what I gather. Creepy crawlies eaten by Conchita include worms, spiders, and caterpillars. Arte was the servant eaten first, followed by Pollo ("Stupid Butler" seems to have been a creativity with the translation, as the term is "servant" and both are referred together as such in other material). Pollo has a "surprising" reaction to his sister getting eaten, which I honestly can't tell if that's supposed to mean he was shocked or indifferent to it.

The purpose of AB's arm being shrouded also doesnt' seem to be explained so either it wasn't something notable from the novel or wasn't even revealed there.
