Probably not, considering they're all dead and the time frame of the game will most likely not be enough for the MC to look into their family tree.

That doesn't have to be the case, as of yet it is still a mystery how the MC has such a high magic affinity (for a human).
His family tree (obviously on the mothers site) is a mayor mystery of itself.
Combining both those facts it's nearly a given that this mystery will lead to a revelation as of why the MC is "the chosen one"

Crone speculation.

I think all the clues we have right now point to Crone being Lilith, and she's using the chameleon scales to look like she does. Her real form is the lady by the river. She and Selena had an incestuous relationship going on, and Selena pushed Lilith off the tower. Possibly because she was being controlled by a demon.
Had to comment, I thought from the beginning that the lady at the river was the Crone undisguised! Nice to see someone else thought the same thing. If I had to guess, I'd say that the Crone is Lilith and she's crazy, but the plot twist of her being Selene is equally as likely, since nothing points one way or the other there and Belle could literally decide which way that goes off a coin toss at this point.

Yeah but not every mystery gets to be, or has to be, wrapped up. So the MC has an affinity for magic, that could also be a case that he's highly receptive, given that his mentor was training him and then wiping his mind with ease for some time. Or somewhere in the past, one of his ancestors learned Truthsaying from the elves.

I'm not saying that he isn't the Chosen One for a reason, just that answering every question takes away...some of the magic.

Just to throw my 2cents in, what if the Crone is neither one Lilith or Selene but maybe one of their 'godmothers' and has been on the mission to find out what happened to Selene? ...that someone we know is actually a double agent for an evil presence not yet identified? ...that the threat to the Princess is right in front of us but we haven't the clue that indicates that yet?? How about that we've been given red herring clues so everything we think we know is leading us off in a wrong direction?? hmmm?

It's gotta be the sister, if nothing else, I'm 99% sure her Crone look is a fake, which explains the whole scene regarding seeing her silhouette and the scales.

This is pretty much exactly what I was going to say.

The family tree might be important to the story or it might not. Either way, I wouldn't be confirming or denying that right now since I like to keep secrets and surprises for the moment when they are the most effective (gotta cast Invade Mind to get patrons, you know).

Explaining every single mystery in a story like this would quickly become tedious. All the questions that matter will get explained, but some questions that a few people could possibly consider important might not. That doesn't mean the answers don't exist. It just means that explaining them serves no purpose within the confines of this particular story.

One thing's for sure: I can't wait to finally reveal the true nature of some of the mysteries that LLtP has contained since the beginning. Most of the first two years of this game's development were focused on buildup, but we're finally at the point where the stories are starting to conclude and pay off.

The biggest mysteries have always related to the nature of Princess Selena as well as the Crone. One of those mysteries will get fully answered in this update, while the other one will get new information to move us even closer towards the ending.
I feel the need to say that of all the adult games I've ever played, yours does the best job I've seen of make it feel like I'm really investigating and learning about the different characters and allowing that knowledge to kind of snowball on itself. I plan to try to use a similar system when I make my own game (assuming I get that far).

It's SO much more satisfying learning the innermost secrets of a character to unlock their content than picking semi-randomly between fairly arbitrary choices to advance like most games have you do. It may not appeal as much to people who want something really easy or just don't like puzzles but I love it.

- Evelyn could be a lover or gone.
- Primrose could be in prison.
- Nell could be the Fairy Queen.

Just three states that are different for everyone.
