I’ve finally started playing ESO and while questing around Vvardenfell, one of the Ashlanders, Yanabi-Asa, referred to Almalexia as the Mad Wife.

I tried looking it up online, but I’ve only found the same passing metion on the Wikis and nothing else, and I feel I’m lacking some major context having not played Morrowind as in-depth as I did Oblivion or Skyrim (played it last, my attention span had degraded to the point where I didn’t have the patience to read all of the in-game lore books I managed to find…)

Is there any specific bit of lore which justifies the moniker? I know Vicec is a bit of a douche and Sotha Sil is fixated, but other than being a helicopter mom and a coward in terms of respecting her principles, I’ve never thought of Almalexia as mad or particularly off her rocker in any significant way.

Edit: or do they mean mad as in angry? This would also require some clarification, as I’ve not found her particularly wrathful, either.

Edit 2: did more reading around this and, yeah, still couldn’t find anything from around 2E or earlier which would explain it. It seems to be related more to her actions in 3E, but that wouldn’t explain the moniker being used in 2E.

Unless hand-wavey Daedra stuff having to do with Azura/Mephala/Boethiah chronicling future events?
