    I would think that as doppelgangers would be name sworn and died in the cell she could deduce that Georgine is dead as there would be no service for her doppelgangers.

      Not necessarily. If Georgine had been beaten, but managed to escape, she’d most likely kill any name-sworn and contracted servant that were captured, to deny the enemy intelligence, to punish them for getting caught or just out of sheer spite. So the only thing Veronica would know for certain is that Georgine lost, but not necessarily that she died.

      With how deluded Veronica is, she probably convinced herself that her daughter escaped and will come back for another “rescue attempt” eventually…
