I know they may or may not have meant this but the depiction WAS AMAZING!
We get to see a quick second of the princess where she holds her hand out and says “I’ll lift the curse if you give me the grand duchess” then it cuts back to the Duke throwing the ring into the fire.
If you think about it, it’s similar to saying “hell no, not over my dead body”. I think that at the same time he doesn’t want Pereshati to wear the ring anymore, it’s also a way to show his nonchalance to the princess.
M-my heart can’t take this any longer, I feel LEGITIMATELY EDGED RN I am pleading so bad for all obstacles to be out of the way, so I can see their beauty in full shine PLEASE NSCIJEJCJWKX
