Answer: Briony begins to see reality.

Explanation:

Briony wants to say she was introduced to real life. That the wrong "understanding" was an idea aimed at a deluded vision, nobody lives in a fairy tale and she had this "weak" idea because she was being awakened to reality through the observation of her own daily life and the people around her.
