Neoma certainly needs more of Ruto's influence because someone needs to call her out when she is doing things recklessly because of her overconfidence or belief in memories of the past life. From what I can see, her memories have either being tempered with or there is another lifetime she does not remember because there is obviously a lifetime she was close to Ruto who was the leader of guards, but that does not seem to correlate with what happened in the lifetime she was engaged to that silly Duke's heir, so either memory has has being tempered with or a different lifetime she herself is not aware of.
