@NoireNowaru : How many flaws were there in her story?
[ul]
Almost everything did not have witnesses to back her up, you need witnesses so it is nor dukes daughter verses counts daughter
No one in their right mind would harass someone on the fiance's order without verifying that the prince was OK with it first. Because if he is no they get in just as much trouble. That and you can not trust these types of agents to say who they are working for. This has to be the most ridiculous reason used in the villainous noble girls stories.
The ladder had been reported as damaged, right after an event with a witness where they were not next to each other, so I doubt she even had a chance to fake that.
There are witnesses that she was not there when the pipe burst

It is like they had a set of schemes and when EVERYTHING failed she still kept the script and did not edit out anything, then proceeded ahead without thinking something might be wrong since things kept going wrong.
