I love how supportive the duke is. Choke a knight? Buy six hundred training swords? Shoot people that annoy you? No problem. Here's a magical tazer for you to freely take out your frustration on people, just don't get caught.
If only the brother hadn't ruined her relationship with everyone with his lies. I'd love to see a Penelope that grew up being spoiled by the duke. It would be glorious.
