"Haha no officer, I'm not the criminal! I'm the the criminal's SISTER! Twin Sister in fact! No ones ever heard of me before, even though I have magic strong enough to stand toe to toe with her. I defeated her and for some reason decided to just... take her house and live her life. I mean have you seen these rent prices? That's the real crime I tell you..."

Tbf this isn’t modern times and I would be a whole lot of more believable than saying she had been body swapped

Is it more believable than bodyswapping? probably.

a lot of things are though

this one has more holes than swiss cheese

Like just say you lost your memory and have been spending this time re learning skills like magic and house chores. Because loosing your memory made look at things from a different perspective you're now trying to turn over a leave yada yada yada

Naw that still wouldn’t be a better explanation the main reason why I think just saying she’s the twin is because she can legally absolve herself of the crimes of the witch of the night fog by being a twin. As stating that you merely regained memories caused to change means you’re still the same person who committed the crimes and people will continue to hate you. Whereas stating your the twin at first people will be suspicious of you lying by just being a completely different consistently and also being good will make them believe you.

"she can legally absolve herself of the crimes of the witch of the night fog by being a twin" -> implies that there is a specific legal system we can quote here, which there isn't. Since that is the case i'm calling bullshit and say that not having the memories of being the witch of the night also absolves her legally of all the crimes.

After all how can you be sure that you're aren't being made a scapegoat if you were to actually loose your memory? For all intents and purposes you are a different person rn.


Also the point of my argument was that randomly pulling a twin out of you ass isn't believable

seeing as she is to a degree recognizable from her appearance, how come no one ever saw this theoretical twin?
Was she locked up somewhere? If so how did she get strong enough to break free, kill her captor and take her place? Actually why stay at place that must have horrid memories for ones self?

Was she just roaming the planet? If so, why did no one ever see her? Somebody must have mistaken her as the witch at some point.

If you're strong enough to kill/defeat the witch why now? Why take her home? If you're strong enough to defeat the witch one would not lack the recources to buy themselve a home. No need to fight a witch over hers

How come there is coincidentally no body of the witch? You, her twin, happen to mysteriously pop into existence and defeat the witch take her property and claim to be innocent of all her crimes, yet there is no proof that the witch is actually dead and you are a seperate person.

Also tbf neither of our options seem to fit her personality.
She is a good person who wants to give people closure for the crimes the witch pulled.
claiming "I don't have my memory/not me bro, good luck though" is not something that helps people with getting closure
Claiming the sins of the witch is at large a narrative decision to show us the mc's kind and upright personality
Is she being clumsy and naive about the whole thing? duh, girlypop grew up in a tower completely removed from society.

So yeah we could probably argue to timbuktu and back about what would have been the smarter move to avoid blame, but that is irrelevant because it's not the kindest move.

or the narrative is going to backtrack on the whole "Taking responsibility for someones elses crimes because their life is now your life" thing, in which case I will laugh because that would be a ridiculous writing decision

 

[VladDracul2]

She is actually the witch's twin though

Spoilers!

 

[KuzumaKazuma]

She literally failed all of the speech checks 🤣

 

[Jatopian]

I mean like is she showing all of her body off to them because her normal attire covers almost all of her body aside from the face which doesn’t have any visible scars form what we’ve seen.

It does though.

 

[beway]

I wonder what the real witch is doing, being in the body of someone who is royalty but can't use magic

She's probably fine, she has her dragon familiar still. It's a holy beast. That's gotta be worth something, right?
