I would imagine. [Because there has been... a lot. A lot of stuff.]
Well, first of all, she and Arthur seemed fairly determined to make each other's lives hell the entire time he was here. Merlin tried to alleviate some of the tension, but it wasn't exactly successful, particularly once they both returned from after Morgana had killed Arthur and Merlin killed her. Her first warden - Mozenrath - honestly wasn't a good fit at all. He didn't seem to understand how to help her, and actually helped set her back quite a bit after a few incidents.
Specifically, [And he has to take a deep breath here, focus on the general scope of the story and not the details because they're still painful, it's still easy to feel the dread creeping back in even if it's been a long time.] There was a port where the ship had crashed, and while we were waiting for it to be repaired, several of us were kidnapped by hostile aliens. Some were forced to work for them, others had to fight in gladiatorial contests, and others were tortured and experimented on. Morgana and I were taken, and we were tortured. On the second day we were their, our captors left her in my cell. They'd broken her arm, beaten her, and there wasn't anything I could do to help her besides talk to her until she fell asleep. They took her away a few hours later, and I couldn't- [He sighs, tries to rally because this is by no means his favorite memory.] It was before I'd been able to fix the damage to my spine, so I literally couldn't do anything but watch them drag her away.
I don't know exactly what happened to her next, but she was dying by the time the Admiral brought us back to the Barge. Merlin was able to heal her, but the whole experience did a fair amount of psychological damage. She couldn't sleep, which I tried to help her with, but she started questioning the reality of the Barge and organized an escape attempt with a man called Jefferson - the Mad Hatter. They somehow escaped to Wonderland and remained there for three months before we caught up with them. It drove her insane, and when she got back on board, she killed someone and Mozenrath thought it was appropriate to keep her locked up in Zero and tried to refuse her visitors instead of actually trying to find a way to help her. [There's no mistaking the bitterness he feels there, but it's more disappointment than rage, like it used to be.]
Not long after that was the Overlook. Mozenrath was completely corrupted by the hotel's influence and tried to kill me. She tried to look after me after I was hurt and we basically waited out the final hours of the port together.
That's effectively everything that happened before you arrived here. There was the Mandrake incident of course, and she was assigned to Lara for a short time before she disappeared, but for the last several months, she's just seemed very... depressed. And very resigned to staying here until the Admiral gets bored of her.
