Yeah, about that core... it's sapient. She's trapped, confused, not sure if she's dreaming or not, and very, very sad.

I couldn't really do a deeper perspective read on her because the nature of the restraints being used on her make it hard for her to think - and she is being restrained; that much is clear - but I will note that she's dreaming of flowers, fire, and "a girl she loved a lifetime ago."
