>>18342217>stella specifically, yesBruh, they're fictional. They can't 'deserve' or 'not deserve' anything.
A villain can be a completely amoral psychopath but they still have to be entertaining to watch and a good driver of the plot to work.
Stella's place in the story however really needed her to be nuanced and human for her to work.
As of now, her place in the story being to absolve Stolas of guilt makes the story much flatter. It could have been
>Stolas is a flawed man who made a mistake due to the boredom of being locked in routine for possibly centuries, now he has to figure out how to fix his life without losing his daughter's loveNow its
>Stolas a damsel in distress who was tortured his whole life and practically FORCED to cheat, and his family was screwed up anyway so he didn't wreck anything or do anything wrongDo you really not see the issue with what it could have been and what we got? It's a fumble of potentially good drama.
