yesssss, i thought about this same thing so many times. if she was the fl, we would all be like “queen shit, periodt take charge as a woman” but in this story we dislike her :(
I agree to an extent. Remember that she literally abuses her son for his entire life which makes him go crazy and kill the emperor? Yeah, maybe at one point she would’ve been a good fl, but considering her entanglements and her honestly shallow reason for revenge, she would eventually lose support. I can understand revenge for the loss of her family, but joining hands with satan himself and using your child for your own needs? Not an equivalent exchange right there. Additionally, black magic was outlawed because it’s inherently evil. She literally could’ve just chosen to take the more righteous path, regardless of her emotions.
I was thinking the same!
I honestly feel bad for the red-haired woman. I feel like we would have absolutely adored her if she was a fl of her own story. Perspective is everything huh? ╮(￣(ｴ)￣)╭
