They even tried to justify that with one of those short stories published on the Lodestone. Apparently she sneaked out of the palace during the hunting festival and almost got eaten, but Zoraal Ja saved her in time. From then on, she was forbidden from leaving the city. But this makes even less sense: why not train her so she can defend herself, then? Or at least teach her what lies beyond the city walls, who the people her father rules over are.
And don't get me started on the bird people forgetting what their own ritual is for, while a scholar who knows every single detail about it lives in their village and watches them die of starvation without intervening. Absolutely baffling. Hiroi is a hack and Kate's localization makes his writing feel even worse.
