I definitely think this is the beginning of her redemption path. This whole time Kendra has repeatedly stated how tinies are insects and don't deserve to live, but now after accidentally killing the MC she's immediately starts saving his life. What's happening to Kendra is the exact opposite of what's happening to Maryen so I'm looking forward to how her route will be from here on. Maybe the MC will start poking at Kendra as to why she saved him despite saying that tinies, including him, are worthless insects? Definitely could set up a tsundere-ish vibe for Kendra.
