Piety = Vinia?!?!?!

So, I noticed that Overgrown Shrine now drops Vinia's Token.

I haven't seen it drop in Temple anymore.

The common thread between the two? Piety lightning form. What could it mean?

"You can change your name, but you cannot change your history."

-Vinia's Token flavour text

To me that's a pretty big hint that Piety used to be named Vinia, and there is some degree of Regret (Vinia's Token reward: 10x Orb of Regret) in her decision to explore the darker corners of thaumaturgy.

Thoughts??? Am I late to the party (has this already been discovered)?

Before the events of Path of Exile, Piety was known by the name Vinia in Oriath, where she funded her practise of thaumaturgy through prostitution. Due to her crimes she was condemned to burn in a pyre, but before her execution took place she supped with High Templar Dominus, who had come to hear her confession. However, Vinia was able to convince Dominus to let her live. It is possible, though never directly stated, that she achieved this by sharing her knowledge of the powers lying dormant in Wraeclast. The fact that the banishment of criminals to the continent began after Vinia was pardoned by Dominus supports the theory. After Vinia was granted her amnesty she enjoyed the patronage of Dominus, who made her his right-hand woman and gave her the name "Piety" to reflect her new loyalties.
Oops. Looks like I wouldn't pass a Wraeclast History Test.

Oh well, the more you know.

Oh, hi Charan. :D

I'm interested in how many more names they come up with that end in the letter "a" :3

When you enter The Lunaris Concourse with a Duelist, he says "The blood has washed away, but i will never forget what you became, Vinia."

So i presume Yes, he's talking about Piety.
Lady Dialla, The Gemling Queen says:

Dominus exiled you, naked and alone, unto the palm of Death. But you would not die, would you?

No, no... you cuddled Death, promised it the world, made it your consort and so generously shared it with all your fleeting friends here is Wraeclast.
Those additional voice lines for the duelist came out well after this thread's original comments.

Yeah well in Act III Clarissa is saying it straight forward. Just listen dialogues.
Since this thread is already necro'ed, might ask my question aswell (regarding Adghar):
