I'll be honest, the total absence of periods and sentences makes it a bit hard to read and I may have missed the point entirely, but I don't see how effectively removing willful decisions from a person (Zahra in this case), and having her ask Z about everything can be considered "adding character depth".i must say i really disliked this scene and wished for an option to just bring ain back to her room and hang his wife there instead so she can have a taste from her own medicine (including some snarky comments from the raider girl cause she is damn right that doing this to her own daughter is fucked up...) didnt have a problem with the wife till that scene but seriously after that scene i try to avoid her whenever it is possible.
even only the option to say that it was over the top and just free her and maybe let her stay in the cell a few days would be a better way (good that at last the spanking can be declined). this punishment just dont add up with previous choices how you can behave towards ain (be a nice loving father, ok mybe a bit too much loving or an asshole that uses her only for his pleasure like in the dining room scene) maybe it is possible to insert just a few lines and another option to the scene wich dont even need new renders like an option when you enter the cell and see her to stop it and talk about the punishmet with his wife or just continue like it is (if stopping the scene could just skip to the part where he declines to spank/fuck her and she is released with a few new sentences and a little discussion that if the wife wants to punish their daughters she should discuss it with him beforehand) this way her place would not be questioned and it would even add some deep to the characters.
If anything else, it reduces her to a husk by making Z's partner of 20+ years having to ask about how to behave in their household (or assume they are not on the same wavelength already). In fact, I think we also imply so in some dialogues.
And Ain was not punished like that for breaking a vase or something. The misstep was slightly more grave (potentially for her in the end).
