Umm...
Rashta's really done nothing to be hated so much. She's just been stupid, but that's not her fault, seeing as she is an illiterate slave likely suffering from cognitive impairment due to malnutrition.
The only person who has
[ol]1. Abused his authority as prince despite never adhering to the responsibilities of the position,
2. Disrespected the royal authority of the Empress who is meant to have the same standing as he,
3. Carried out a sentence without trial for an offense that didn't exist,
4. Expected tasks to be carried out by someone else without expressly delegating them or even expressing his will of said tasks to be carried out,
5. Broken his years-long friendship over a boner on the road,
6. Failed to provide Rashta with an adequate education before introducing her into polite society
7. Spread false rumours and made leaping assumptions about his childhood friend whom he's known for years acting passionately out of jealousy, a behaviour clearly misaligned with her cool and unemotional demeanor,
8. Demanded Navia be, punished her for not being, and rewarded Rashta for being, a quiet, obedient wife who does things as she is told and never argues or doubts her husband.[/ol]
