EXACTLY! It’s this emotional impact that sucks you right in. And it also showed why Edith was able to fulfill the third condition. Here, she’s not even covering her face, there’s no sign of harm/injury. Like my girl went through so much during this arc only for this version to take that away. I’ll still read it because I like this story but the dissatisfaction’s gonna remain
Those who didn't read the novel wouldn't understand why we are pissed off with these changes and sugarcoating of the novel...The point is that in the novel it was pictured pretty well how Edith became desperate and hopeless through her sufferings, why she lost hope and couldn't leave Killian, eventually chosing death by giving up everything and the real catharsis was when all protagonists faced the truth at the same time - how her family treated her, how hard she fought, how much she suffered during the kidnapping and afterwards and how Killian was the only one who fought for her meanwhile everyone else wanted to execute her as a villian. We want to see the despair, the hopelessness, the impending death and how love and kindness overcame all of these.
