where is Constance from? what is her real name? why did she replaced her body parts?

Greetings Anon ^^

Ah Constance Jacquemart, her true first name is very similar to the one she currently uses, it is Constantia.

And where is she from? Well, Constance was born and grew up in the Byzantine Empire, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire, if I remember correctly, she was maybe, from royalty.

The reason why she began to replace her body with clockwork and metal, was because it slowly started to give up. I think, at one point Constance met Charly Doe, however, she realized that they were more, than what the eye saw and I think she did ask Charly, what the key to eternal life would be, with Contance saying that she wanted to see more of the world...because she believed that there is more to see.

And so Charly helped her, by, sharing a bit of his vast knowledge with her, and also by giving Constance the first mechanical piece, with Charly helping her to, to install it in her heart.

A clockwork heart, that would never stop beating.

After that, Constance (who was always fascinated how gears worked) began to slowly replace more of her body, when said body parts started to give up.

With the fall of the Byzantine Empire, Constance no longer had a place she could call home, and trough some of Charly's words she remembered from the many years ago (at this point they had left Constantinople) she traveled west. always west, first with a carriage, then on foot...and when there was no longer any earth under her feet, with a boat.

Constance arrived in North America, around 40 or 30 years before Columbus did.

There she continued her work and research on clockwork and the usage of steam as power for her inventions.

Later, when the first settlers arrived , Constance decided to travel further into the west, because she preferred to work alone, until the day came she settled down one last time, at the place, were in the future, Mayberry would be build.

What happened to Constance?

Greetings Anon ^^

Ehehehe, I guess, that requires a bit of an explanation.

So, Constance Jacquemart or as she is usually known "The Phantom of Mayberry" is a bumblebee who lives below the city of Mayberry, even further down than the sewer system, however sometimes she can be found there as well.

The thing is, Constance Jacquemart is not her real name, but rather, the most, recent name she had taken, and even that was a "few" years...ago.

For you see, the bumblebee has not really, her, biological body anymore, or at least, most of it is now metal.

A lot has over time, been replaced by different kinds of clockwork, at this point, she is more, automaton than, really flesh and blood, but she still has the appearance of a bumblebee.

Constance is older than Mayberry, way older, and has arrived in these lands were the city was built, long before there was even a thought or concept about the town.

And there she lived, alone, in solitude and peace, isolated from everyone else, working on her clockwork machines, as she always wanted, without any disturbance.

However, this changed, on multiple accounts...and well, one of the more prominent ones was when the first people arrived to establish the city that would be known as Mayberry.

What did Constance do? Instead of moving away, she relocated her home, her workshop her machines everything underground, and thought there she would have peace.

But the city grew larger, and they dug deeper for the pipes, cables, tunnels etc. etc. and so, Constance dug deeper.

Until finally, everything grew silent, and she no longer could hear any construction work, and there, built her home, deep into the underground has she built it, were from this moment on, she continues working on her clockwork creations, big and small, simple and complex etc and to live her life.

Of course, despite that, there have been moments were she had left her home, with her usually moving through the sever system, were she, her silhouette or shadow has been spotted by maintenance workers but she easily slipped away before they could see more of her.

This was, what led to the rumors and legends of "The Phantom of Mayberry" and the bumblebee is aware about them, but does not mind if another bit of mystery is added to her.

No one knows were Constance really is from, with her shrouding her past in secrets and not revealing it on purpose, saying, what matters now, is that she lives here.

Yours sincerely
