Recently though she has begun to realize she needs to take a step back and rethink this. Ling, Mushu, and Kurapika’s efforts have finally started to have their effect, and I already have tentative plans for how she will eventually come to realize the error in her thinking, and that if she wants things to ever change she has to be ready to take that risk and be herself. It’s going to be a long journey though.

I hope that clarifies a couple things? And hopefully, if it does, hopefully that’ll make Mulan’s decisions and reasoning make a little more sense. I don’t think I answered or addressed all your questions, sorry if I didn’t, but please don’t hesitate to ask or point out any flaws in all this.
