What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

[Teraq]

Don't mind me, just passing by to dunk on literally everyone who thought Lahabrea

would be a bad, bad man, a terrible heartless father and totally pro-necromancy, as it turns out even the Bad™ part of him that attempted to raise Athena really was irremediably corrupted by her being a conniving schemer in the first place.

And can I mention how even worse this all makes Venat look in retrospect? As we all suspected here, Ancients could routinely show each other their memories and past events. So much for the hypothesis of people not believing her, or whatever those convoluted concerns of hers were about. Not only could she have shown what happened, but Themis speaking highly of her just reinforces that at least he would have taken her completely seriously, and he in turn is shown to be taken very seriously by Lahabrea and Azem. What she truly cared about was maintaining the fairness of Hermes's unfair sadistic little test.

Oh I am eating so good tonight.
