Penelope didn't know what she was doing but since the time he had spoken about his childhood where his heart had been corrupted, his mother being the cause who hadn't realized it, she wanted to help him. For someone like her, who had only heard about corruption by words and the only person she met being him, she wanted to be of some use.
One would question her intentions which were hard to explain right now. It was a sudden change of heart. In the beginning, Penny despised this man for making her starve and making her sit on the floor while the rest sat at the table. Threatening her that if she were ever to escape he would make sure to hunt her down. Putting her posters all around the lands until she was brought back to him. Now that she thought about it, there was no way he could do it. Those were empty threats as he had to get herself drawn and an artist could do only match up to an extent. It would be a different matter if Master Damien knew how to draw and paint.
