It's almost as if she constantly wants to be caught out.Īlmost every single other girl here was villainised. But considering her life depends on it, shouldn't she, you know, put a bit more effort into it? Try to blend in a little bit? Instead of casually doing things she KNOWS are going to blow her cover but just literally not caring. So Rybet is suddenly shoved into masquerading as a noblewoman.
