I honestly get where she's coming from.
Tho some people are pissed she's rejecting ML, she doesn't want to use him as a scapegoat and scumb to this hopeless situation where she has to rely on someone else for her freedom.
Some may call it pride, but i see it as dignity and that's all that matters and it's most likely the only thing you could protect as a women in that era.
I'm so proud she's already prepared to go independent (kinda satisfied with the reaction of ML as well) but that just shows her conviction frfr.
My gosh, just let her marry for love, not just because she's in trouble

Her achievements and powers are enough to elevate her family. Not to mention the favorable impression the other kingdoms and the fairy king has with her... it's enough to threaten the influence of the royals. She could even overthrown them if she likes.
Why is her family so bent on labelling her useless? She accomplished more than they ever could in their lifetime...
My girl suffered so much in the hand of these assholes. I need them to suffer the same fate
