!!Valrún sank the Margaid.
To Stanczia, Valrún is "just a wrecker," but the humans of Sønheim recoil at her name. A "wrecker" is one who deliberately lures ships into danger. To a centuries-old vampire, a shipwreck, even one so bad Ceannic citizens talk about it like 9/11, might not seem so terrible. Moreover, it would be perfect dramatic irony for Leif's mother to have killed one of Thorn's.

!!Olive Romarin and Kudzu are related.
Admittedly we don't know how common the last name Romarin is, and admittedly it is a long shot given that the author has so far painted Ceannis as being positive in terms of government compared to Sonheim. Still, two points make it highly probable.
* 1: Romarin is already a politically-involved long-runner who would probably have need of a troubleshooter and problem solver capable of acting as a deniable asset.
* 2: Kudzu notes that the people who raised him made him think what he was doing was justified. If he wasn't strung along by his parents, a long-runner sibling with goals of their own certainly would be capable.

Leif believes they did something so awful he doesn't even like to think about it. That could be Sønska propaganda to cover for the fact that they were freedom fighters. The debt he's paying off could be a punitively large fine laid on his parents or some kind of restitution to survivors.

He worries about Elisa's relationship with her father but never thinks about his own parents or wishes to be back with them.

It's somewhat difficult to tell, but Ivy and the WIB appear to have the same hairstyle and face shape. Additionally, Ivy's hyperactive nature is a perfect foil to the WIB's calm, calculating demeanor (meaning there's even fewer reasons for anybody to ever mentally associate them with each other), and her fangirlish obsession with Sonheic culture gives her a great excuse to be completely fluent in the language.
