Over time, she develops genuine care for Casca as the woman's caretaker, as well as a measure of selflessness in doing so.
Traveling alongside Guts, Farnese becomes self-conscious of her own useless and powerlessness relative to her companions in such self-reflection, she comes to understand why a "small" person such as herself would endeavor to appear majestic and oppress others as she has before. After witnessing Guts fight in the face of a seemingly hopeless situation during the Incarnation Ceremony, Farnese is compelled to secularize herself and follow Guts in pursuit of learning how to "survive in a world where the light of does not reach". Upon being kidnapped by the Black Swordsman and experiencing the terrors of his night, her faith is compromised, and she consequently develops of fear of him as the catalyst for her growing disillusionment. Meeting Guts serves as the impetus for a significant transformation of Farnese's worldview. Furthermore, upon meeting Mozgus, she takes heart in the inquisitor's affirmation that their acts are because of their faith in God. Though she does question the righteousness of her acts, she convinces herself that she is justified in them. Despite her sadistic tendencies, however, she feels empathy towards those whom she considers innocents and wishes for their well-being. She shows little affection for others and expresses even greater delight at burning heretics.
Indulging her pyrophilia as commander of the Holy Iron Chain Knights, Farnese began hunting down and burning supposed heretics at the stake, cultivating a sadistic pleasure which she comes to be in denial of.
One night, she mustered the courage to partake in the burning of a heretic, whereupon she felt a "marvelous burning in her underbelly" in enjoyment of the act.
As a child, Farnese was neglected by her parents and overwhelmed with fear of the heretic burnings of the time.
