Not to excuse her or reprimand her, but merely to understand her better

Noelle was a typical child: immature, naive, stubborn, well-meaning but brash and relatively thinking only of the present moment. Added to that, she was also sheltered and abused, and she only really wants to help the one person who was a major source of comfort and help to her.

She would sulk when scolded or denied, and somewhat refuses to see why people talked the way they do, or act, because barely anyone did that for her.

One thing I did appreciate with Noelle is her willingness to admit her faults when she does realize it. It was a great help that she was separated from Sion for a while, to allow her to grow and mature on her own, to calm her down a bit and make her look at things in retrospect. Her desire to improve and to see different perspectives are great markers of how much she's grown, and will be of great help to her when crisis arrives.
