I think she made a great accounting of herself considering a mere two years ago she was pretty much just a spoiled princess who knew nothing of fighting. She had a chance at a perfect fairytale romance with Rassler but that wasn't fated to be. In addition she lost her father and her uncle soon after. (she lost the latter in a more figurative sense) Her entire world was turned upside down in no time but she came out of it strong and committed to fight to the end.
