Supposedly Part II is not complete. I think Part I is stand-alone sort of outside of being completely in-universe.

I think the rest of Part II may be a bit more uplifting. That could put RLR Part II as being about ruby's reaction to a death that has already occurred. This being her initial 'emptiness and sadness' (possibly her "complete garbage" stage), followed by her overcoming it and becoming the cheery little person she is today.
