Review Detail of kasiopeia in Kingmaker's Revenge

Although I can't bring myself to exactly like or root for Lumielle, I have a finicky moral compass and she happened to get on its bad side. I don't feel as though my apathy towards her well-being detracts from the story since her character isn’t framed in a way that ignores that what she’s doing is wrong. The narrative treats what she’s doing as a bad thing without making you absolutely despise her outright which is a nice balance. Originally I was hoping she’d get some more redeeming qualities so I no longer have to, occasionally, push the desire to see her suffer horribly for her actions to the back of my mind but this situation is good too. Either way, I want Aristele to get what he wants, whatever that is, and be happy, so in the end I’m in a way rooting for her in a way. Can I also say that I adore Aristele? I haven’t seen a particular lot of him yet, from a character/personality perspective, but what I have seen makes me really like him. On another note, since the beginning of the novel I had wondered if Aristele had ever wanted any of this and what would happen if he knew what Lumielle was doing. Would he despise it? Would he make her stop but not resent her for it? Or would he make sure she got her rightful punishment and not forgive her? I’m a sucker for interpersonal conflict.
