The drama of this scene is greatly diminished compared to the novel where she didn’t know who the author was at this point, the duke still distrusted/didnt care about her, she has been greatly beaten, the guards found her on their own after like a week where she had dressed in shabby commoner clothes and had bought a hobo kit and used hit potatoes to stay warm. Like, she was so much more pathetic here and genuinely still trying to run away at this point in the novel, but I think they’re trying to give the duke, cliff, and the princess a bigger role in the WEBTOON, and allowing the duke and cliff to actually be redeemed I guess? I was okay with them being punished by the author finally using their own personality instead of acting like lize be the punishment as she greatly decreased their reputation
