>palace rulers were people with desires so distorted they were incompatible with the collective desire to be imprisoned
>thus they escaped the prison of Mementos
>requests were people with desires that almost became distorted enough to turn into a palace
>therefore you encounter them outside of the prison of mementos, to represent how they were halfway to forming a palace and halfway from submitting to the collective unconscious
