Notes: Part one of the earliest origins of Luba and her mother Maria, her father Eduardo and her cousin Ofelia.

The opening five pages are wordless, making it somewhat ambiguous on why Maria was kicked out of the mansion. In the reprint collections for this story, additional dialogue is added making it explicitly clear why she was kicked out.
