Whhhhdhdgrgr. Obviously, the realization that Yvonne is a doppelganger in every ending is a huge thing, as it means that all the cruel deaths Penelope faces in the games might not have been the fault of the characters alone. But. Idk.
My last comment on this manhwa was how happy I am that Penelope has someone on her side, but idk now. Like we've only caught brief glances at what kind of person the real Penelope was, yet the fact that she is so destroyed that her soul crumbled into nothing is so sad to me. Usually, I don't really like it when villainess manhwas do the "the og villainess was always the good one secretly!" thing, but here it works, because it just drives further the point of how alone Penelope always was. Yvonne recognized her, said that Penelope tried to stop her before and I'm thinking about how many times she tried to save everyone and no one believed her.
I never hoped the original Penelope would come back, but I assumed her death was more like falling asleep, them being worn down until there's nothingeft. ARGDHEHHSHAHHHHHHH I LOVE YOU PENELOPE I LOVE THEM BOTH AAAAAAGGHHHHUHU
Anyway on a less sappy note, the reason why this scene works on an emotional level is because the author masterfully build up the relationship between our Penelope and the og Penelope (OgP) from the start. Penelope sympathized with how along OgP must've felt, she refused to accept any apologies that OgP was meant to get and she tried to get OgP's will across, when it mattered. If Penelope never gave a shit about her, if she forgave those who hurt OgP for the sake of building relationships with them and if she constantly thought of her as an idiot, this scene would've meant nothing.
To sum it up: Duchess 50 tea recipes or whatever the fuck could learn a thing or two from this about how to set up important plot points early on
