Hestia had been forced to live in a world where she had virtually no one except for Kaelus, and even then she couldn’t be with him and watched only from a far, and the moment they actually met she literally watched him die. On top of all of this she watched as the world around them both continued despite all of that, neither diana or the prince noticed or cared and even the temple turned her down and could care less for her, at that point she realized it wasn’t just a novel but a devastating world that only revolves around diana. Also i cannot understand why Kaelus would fucking want diana to stay in power, she is not just incompetent she is selfish in the sense that she wants her beliefs to be on a pedestal and disregards any and all consequences of her actions, honestly it has nothing to do with just the hate Hestia has for diana anymore, he is literally turning a blind eye on the fact that diana should think about the people but she doesn’t, she shouldn’t be the empress and she shouldn’t be someone who is responsible for the entire empires life’s. Yeah so i’m with Hestia on this, idc if old habits die hard this is literally him choosing diana over her.
