Theory time: does the father habe the same name as the dead uncle? Or... Unless he took the brother he took the brother identity for succession reason. Which mean hes not the rightful heir right?
And if it's true, it would mean the child is the rightful successor right?
Medea is the real victim of this story. The god in the comic is simply using her to keep Psyche alive. She doesn't matter, as long as Psyche is happy. That's really sad
