Bah, just give her back her memory and let her make the decisions. And make her less namby-pamby. And then send her to jail forever.
That's more or less what I plan to have happen, ultimately. Except the jail time - it'll be more of a banishment deal.
But to get to that point, I have to wade through a lot of explanation and angst.
At least the other character is pretty fun to write, when I'm not in boom-induced crash-and-burn mode.
