SPOILER (kind of)
Since the beginning the mother (The queen) has been neglecting Pryde even before she was born because she had a "vision" or she saw the future of whatever about how terrible of a person and queen Pryde will become. Due to this entire vision that she saw the queen she ended up never talking to Pryde not trying to make any sort of bond with her. Her excuse was the she didn't want to become "attached" to Pryde and will continue to see Pryde grow up as an awful human being. After this banquet thing that is an event in the future she meets with the king (I forgot his name) and she breaks down in tears because she talks about how bad of a mother she is. (Which I wholeheartedly agree with tbh.)
I just hate how she uses the visions that she sees as an excuse to not give Pryde any love or guidance which leads of course, Pryde with a malicious personality. Just because you saw a future of your daughter doesnt mean that you can't change your daughter for a better future. I think that motherly love that Pryde was missing when growing up played a huge part about her being an awful person. Ugh I just get so frustrated at the mom and daughter sometimes.
Honestly I get frustrated at the sister because yes, she's naive and doesn't know any better, however, if you're born into royalty you should be taught the darkness of being royals. (another spoiler) I don't like how she ends up being huge buddy buddies with the kid adviser and Pryde when they grow up. The Pryde now is just a huge sweetheart and the sister steals the spotlight often, gets the love of their mother, and isn't badmouthed like Pryde is.
BRUHHH!!!THE KING DESERVE SOMEONE BETTER!!!
Actually,I usually hope characters like Pryde's sister to suffer and the MC don't give a slight damn about it.She need to learn the dark side of the world.The world won't give you sugar all the time dear.They will give you salt,cinnamon and all those spices you need to survive.
The mother could just be like Pryde.She knew her faith is a very ugly one but she choose to change the future unlike the mother that goes "OMG my daughter will be a horrible person.I can't give her love so I won't get attached and slowly see her becoming the horrible person she should be.I will only love and protect my naive cute useless to the kingdom daughter."
wow

so basically even thought the mother saw that future it probably wouldn't have come about if she tries to change it and raise her daughter well so she wouldn't turn out like that. But since it honestly had happened that the mc was originally that way I bet the mother avoiding her is what caused the og mc to become a villainess, because if the sister is truly a naive innocent then the mc would've ended up exactly like her or close to her if her mother had also raised her like she did the other daughter. She caused that future she wanted to avoid. Instead of avoiding it, if she actively tried to change it like how our mc saved her father from the carriage accident, the original villainess mc would've never came to be. But shes a coward and chose that path herself.
I already hate the sister.I don't like the cute, naive and couldn't protect herself kind of girl.The mother is worse.Neglecting her other daughter.....burn in hell
