Seeing Astana in that state makes me feel bad, he is arrogant and greedy to the core but his upbringing was the biggest factor for that so I can't entirely blame him alone (he's still a teenager after all).
Not me. He enjoyed all the privileges of being a Prince, terrorize all those that did not obey him, he was in on his mother's plan, he knew everything his mother did was to make sure he became king. What's completely okay with killing his brother as long as he becomes king. In his position he cannot be viewed with the lens of an average person.
Why? I mean yes, he was raised in that environment and I do know what kind of tucked up being he became because of that environment but why? He made his own decisions. He actively chose to kill and harm and torture people. Just because he is young doesn't mean he has a shot at redemption. He had and could've changed but he never did. He is willing to sacrifice everything and everyone to ensure his own self. That kind of person, is worse than lavini and Jovaness combined.
