Ok, let's talk about Kiriona Gaia.
I think her trauma and isolation demons have come home to roost and she's acting entirely in character. She's traumatized, stuck without the only person she truly cares about while simultaneously hating said person for spitting her sacrifice back in her face, has been handed her wildest childhood fantasy and realized it's totally...pyrrhic (whether it's joining the cohort, having a powerful parent, or getting revenge on Crux).
She wanted to get off 9th and join the cohort so she could have a life and stop being Harrow's metaphorical puppet, and now she's there but with absolutely no real future in any way that matters since she is literally a corpse puppet. She couldn't even control her own death and now has even been stripped of her very name. She has no hope, no agency, and is utterly alone in every way that matters.
She was always at least a little bit of an asshole, though a loveable one (and GtN was her own pov). My assholery would be turned up to 15 too under the same circumstances. Harrow isn't the only one undone without the other.
