Anastasia

Question: During all the time Vlad and Dimitri spent with Anya teaching her about her past, family, etc., why is it they never told her what to say when asked how she escaped the palace during the Revolution since that would have been the most important answer to prove her identity?

Question: How is it that young Anastasia was never aware of the secret panel in her own bedroom, and Dimitri was?

Question: How was young Anastasia never aware of the secret door in her room? You would think her family would have told her about it since secret doors were often built into castles and palaces for the safety of royal families.

Answer: There may have been some concern that young Anastasia might try to leave the palace to go exploring, could carelessly reveal the secret to someone, or sneak someone into her room. There's any number of reasons. She probably would have been told about it when she was older and more trustworthy with information.
