Conor believed that the queen deserved punishment because she was evil, but when the monster explained what had truly happened, it turned out the prince was the one to blame. In the story that the monster told, the queen corresponded with Conor’s grandmother and he was the prince. Conor was bitter, hated his grandmother, and refused to live with her, and in the prince’s case, he hated the queen and could not stand her.
