I’m not sure she ‘copied’ those ‘stories’ from this world and brought them to that world, so maybe?
I mean if we talk fan fiction she could, but the stories have to be different right?but what is ‘different’
Maybe she’s trying to get her to realize stories can be ‘more’ than ‘good vs. evil’ besides if good always wins in stories then where’s the drama? The growth?
The king of Dagenhelm was not ja king, or simply a monster. That guy is more a force of nature, one that is never tamed, nor is predictable. Just as Sylph has gotten his interest, it might also be fairly easy for that interest to be snuffed out like a candle.
Considering Sylph, don't think it's likely, but it's always been hinted to be the case.
If Sylph had given a conventional answer, the king would not fault her. He'd likely even oblige her -
But the choice she picked and the path she's chosen is one that definitely interested him, and likely contributed to his entertainment for that day, and possibly the following days. If she spared Kanna, she'd be a heroine. If she killed Kanna, she'd be a villainess. But since she picked a different path - one remarkably almost like that of a spectator like the king, she has cemented herself as Sylph - but in the grand scheme of things, it might be as she says - two villainesses and a monster.
There is no path of redemption, so she's always going to pose danger - if we think about it the choice Sylph was going to make regarding Kanna's punishment was already hinted - (Kanna said the heroine will never truly be happy so long as the villainess is not vanquished because of potential danger, whereas Sylph said she'd prefer a happy ending wherein both sides are living just fine.) But what she chose as Kanna's punishment was definitely something I did not expect.
I wonder if the King would stick around and listen to Kanna's tales, if Sylph would frequent the dungeon to hear those tales, or if there's some other audience to verify if she does indeed spin those tales.
And considering Kanna's desperation, she's likely to be able to spin 365 tales - would she spin them like she had spun them in Luxborg? Does she really have special powers? What would she do if she's set free after succeeding - would she go and try ruining Sylph again? Now, she's the villainess who poses a threat to Sylph's ending - but this is Sylph's version of a "happy ending", so one can't complain. I'd rather this than have her turn back on the words she proclaimed with such conviction. It makes her, her.
