... but honestly she just comes off as very... Bland and empty. Its like ...
(First off apologies for pinging you back when your message was 4 months ago)
I think you're right about her seeming a bit bland, and from a story / reader perspective I can understand the frustration.
However one thing I would like to point out is that my interpretation is that the story is trying to point out that she's been raised a puppet, everything till now was all planned and carefully calculated so that she'd be an empty vessel for her mother to act through...
i.e. The story is about her horizons growing and seeing the world outside the palace.
Of course, this is just my interpretation of where the story is going / or what the story is trying to tell and regardless of that, the implementation of this idea in the story can still be poor. I just wanted to point out that I think she's bland intentionally at this point in time.
(Of course based on just how
incredibly bland she seems thus far I highly doubt it's gonna get much better anyway...)
