The mother just started spending time with her daughter again as if nothing happened...honestly if i was pryde i would've given her the cold shoulder. I would 100% make the queen feel bad and make sure she knows she's a horrible mother. You can't come back and pretend that nothing happened. You neglected your daughter for years while loving the other one. Like ofc pryde was gonna grow up to be messed up. Idc that the queen had a difficult childhood if she could show love to tiana than why couldn't she do the same for pryde? Literal piece of crap
Huh? When did the Queen pretend that nothing happened and start spending time with Pryde again?
That doesn't happen. TEN YEARS LATER in the novel, she's still trying to make up for abandoning Pryde. It takes her five years before the Queen can even build up enough courage to talk to Pryde again without her husband (Pryde's dad) there to act as a buffer, to make sure that she doesn't mess up and hurt Pryde more.
Believe me, she's going to be atoning for her lack of trust for the entire rest of her life.
Yes, tbh I don't like her mother after hearing her reasons. She did admit that she is a bad mother, but I still don't like her. She already have foreseen her daughter's future, so why ignore it? And abandon her? It's so stupid. Obviously, Pryde is like that because no one guided her, no one teach her to be good and her father spoiled her too much. As a mother who saw her daughter's future behavior, she should make an effort to educate and carefully care and love Pryde.
She avoided her daughter for several reasons starting with she was an eighteen-year-old first-time mother raising her child with love, trying to give Pryde the happy childhood that she never had, only to have a vision about her beloved daughter being executed as an evil tyrant. Which she would have had while pregnant with Tiara, for an extra hormonal kick.
In short: She was traumatized (to the point that she couldn't even raise Tiara, whom she knew would grow up into a good girl, for fear of "ruining" her--Tiara was raised by a nanny), and then repeatedly assaulted several times a year for seven years by visions of her beloved eldest daughter gleefully torturing people.
I regret to say that you are completely uninformed regarding what you are talking about, as the manga has yet to cover the full details of how precognition works in this setting (as it has been explained in the novel). It doesn't even cover the details introduced in the FIRST CHAPTER of the novel.
To summarize, there are three types of visions in this setting: Vanishing, Alterable, and Unavoidable. The Queen is naturally inclined to foreseeing Unavoidable Futures. This DOES NOT mean that she has never made any attempt to avoid tragedies that she foresaw: in the novel during the aforementioned scene where she laments avoiding Pryde, she reminisces about trying to prevent assassinations and accidents she's foreseen before, where all she had to do was prevent a person from being in a particular place at a particular time to avoid their deaths. Unfortunately, all attempts failed, with the person dying within the hour of the foreseen time.
(Note that this was a SIMPLE FIX event, with concrete details on how to avoid disaster, and not some nebulous "raise my daughter right" directive when Pryde is currently receiving the EXACT SAME education and upbringing that the Queen received, with frequent lessons and moral lectures that just happen to be given by someone other than the Queen--but still family, like Pryde's father and uncle. The only difference being that Pryde was NOT being emotionally abused by an authority figure, and she receives constant assurance--which she believes and has never doubted--that her mother loves her, and is only too busy to visit. The only time game!Pryde doubts her mother's love is when the Queen wastes away after her husband's death. All of which is TEXT, not subtext.)
Pryde's condemnation event is an Unavoidable Future.
Literally the ONLY way left for the Queen to save Pryde was by denying her the throne, so that Pryde wouldn't be able to cause that much destruction (such as waging war with other countries, enslaving the populace, and other tyrant behavior). No crown = no tyrant Queen (just an egotistical princess). Unfortunately, Pryde's precognitive ability awakened before Tiara's, and as the law states that having precognition prioritizes your claim as the future monarch over your siblings (regardless of age, reputation, personality, ability or preference), Pryde was made heir apparent.
That said, I do not believe that NURTURE would have aided the Pryde from the game overly much. In the first 1-3 chapters of the novel, our Pryde realized that the real difference between her and the Pryde from the game was a matter of empathy. The original Pryde was a sociopath, without any sense of empathy whatsoever. People just weren't human to her. My belief in this is strengthened by an AU setting written by the author in an extra chapter, where receiving actual care and affection during her formative years (2-6) allowed Pryde to become a "functioning" sociopath (turning her into someone with a good reputation who would benefit the country rather than destroy it). It still doesn't end well, though, due to certain canon events. At six, Pryde became an emotionless doll one straw away from a psychotic break that may arguably have been more violent than the one in the game (especially if Tiara became involved with the hidden capture target in that timeline).
FINALLY A MALE LEAD THAT ACTUALLY TRIES TO UNDERSTAND THE FEMALE LEAD HALLELUJAH
