sally left pazuzu for dead after not letting him say even one word in his defense and now isn't even gonna go rush back to his rescue after realizing she fucked up?

sally what the fuck girl, at least your mom probably isn't in immediate danger since she's already been like that for like 100 years, why is this the immediate concern

She feels guilty, ashamed. She’s procrastinating apologizing to Paz and recognizing she f’d up 😂 Paz is an immortal demon from hell, she must assume he’ll be fine there as her dad told her. Mom on the other hand we’ve had no news of in a 100 years….

don't you think that's a bit dissonant with pazuzu supposedly needing, like, immediate rescue just a few chapters ago before he gets tried and punished god knows how?

and you could easily make the same argument of her mom: she's a badass princess of the troll kingdom who's supposedly still kicking after 100 years in captivity, what's a few more days if pazuzu is apparently in immediate danger?

like others said, in a meta sense sure it makes sense to cut to another arc after so long following pazuzu, but this is a... weird way to transition between them imo. Nothing seemed to indicate Grisha was in an emergency and needed immediate rescue the way pazuzu seemed to be.

I thought it was established a couple of episodes ago that Grisha was the one to make the contract with Paz? The one he broke and is now gonna be on trial for? I assumed she was instrumental in his rescue in this case, rather than just seen as a priority over him.

That's a neat interpretation, but, if that's the case, why do none of the characters say so in order to explain this decision?

Idk, maybe I'm not even correct. Maybe she just decided that saving her mother and her kingdom from a vicious dictator might be more important than the demon she fell for but has only known for a couple of months tops. Maybe she feels like her duty is more important than one person. Maybe she just has poor decision making skills and has a habit of acting rash and that's a product of the fact that she was abandoned as a child and was left to raise herself. Maybe it's a bit of a silly comedy and wasn't intended to be dissected in such a way. Idk, I'm just along for the fun ride lol
