Idk why people think she’s weak. Not every mc is going to be extremely powerful from the very beginning. Her actions make a lot of sense in the context of the story. At the beginning, she wanted to kill herself but didn’t bc of the promise to her brother. The ml is the second most powerful person in the other empire and he’s also respectful/kind to her, so trying to convince him to save her is the best bet. The most powerful person, the emperor, wants him to have a child and since she knows that, the obvious solution is to either actually get pregnant or have other people think she’s pregnant.
The ml seems to be very orderly and follows the emperors commands pretty much to the letter. So when the emperors letter comes saying to either let her khs or bring her UNHARMED to the empire to be publicly executed, the ml is going to follow that. The fl stabs herself bc the ml can’t travel with her if she’s harmed and sick bc of that. This buys her another month of time to get closer to the ml before they set out and has the added benefit of looking suspicious to the other knights. When they set out at the lake scene, she realizes how the knights are looking at them and decides to take advantage of that plus attempt to get pregnant to save herself.
This brings us to the current point where they agreed on the contract. The ml has always been attracted to the fl, but doesn’t want anyone to share the same fate as his mother.
I think season 1 will be focused on the 6 months of contract marriage and end with the opening scene where she running away.
Season 2 will probably be her running away to fulfill her promise, his tracking her down, and the pregnancy.
I’m not sure if she will go through magic lessons during the 6 months or if it will be a season 2 thing when she’s in Argan.
