kid-az Undeniably Moswen given she was in complete complete control of her actions and crimes, (Also the fact it drove one of her sons to kill her) but Oggsa takes 2nd place due to the sheer scope of her actions affecting not just her kids but people outside of her village. Moswen was godawful but she atleast put out a charitable front. Moswen is the worst parent and Oggsa is the worst person.

Imagine being such a shitastic mother that your son chooses literal slavery over living with you. Then when he returns like 20 years later, it's only to put your ass in the ground lmao. #LukasDidNothingWrong

Now that would be one awkward situation!

Besides Lukas, Evan is the only one who knows what Moswen looks like. So if she suddenly showed up in the village, no one would realize who she was at first.

If Evan was the first to notice her, I think he'd try to get rid of her before she made contact with Lukas. Seeing her again would upset Lukas beyond belief, and Evan knows that nothing good can come of that. I don't know that Evan would kill her, but he might throw a bag over her head and take her somewhere far, far away from the Hollow.

He might need the crew's help to pull this off. I can imagine them trying frantically to intercept her while she searches for Lukas. And when they finally succeed, they agree to never mention anything about it to him.

You know what's really messed up about this? Sofia would like Moswen. Not because Moswen's a good person (because we know damn well that ain't true) but because she's really good at pretending she is. She would fool Sofia, just like she fooled everyone else.

Moswen put on a kind, caring facade around the public. The people of Uekoro loved her and thought of her as a benevolent down-to-earth queen because she personally visited sick citizens in the hospital, made a show of giving money to the poor, and gave a lot of speeches about the importance of kindness and humanity in Uekoro's culture.

Moswen was a woman who cared about her appearance more than anything. She was desperate to appear beautiful inside and out, perhaps because she knew how ugly her soul really was. The only people who knew her true nastiness were her slaves and her children. They were the most defenseless victims in her life, the only ones who couldn't fight back, so they received the brunt of her hideous cruelty.

Sofia is nothing like Moswen. She is a genuinely kind and caring person, she doesn't have to pretend. Yes she's bigoted and ignorant about the world, but that's the fault of her Evangelite culture, it's not the condition of her soul. She wouldn't feel that way if she just got a better education; unfortunately she did not have that privilege.

Sofia would be charmed by Moswen's fake, angelic personality. She would see her as an inspirational woman and probably never realize how horrible she really was. Meanwhile I think Moswen would feel jealous/threatened by Sofia's genuineness. It would really chap her ass that Sofia can be so pleasant without even trying, and she would secretly hate her for it.

Yes, Lukas definitely killed her via poisoning. Jelani wasn't involved at all and had no idea Lukas was planning to do that, but he wasn't surprised or upset by it. Jelani knows his brother very well, and he knew it couldn't have been a coincidence that Moswen suddenly dropped right after Lukas left the palace. He even cancelled the investigation so that nothing could be traced back to Lukas.

Moswen was awful to them both, but Lukas definitely got the worst of it. Jelani was well aware that he wasn't getting it as bad as his brother, so he had no hard feelings after Lukas put her down. Neither of her sons loved her at all, they felt nothing but bitter resentment towards her.
