Elena is a dominant Mistress. She is the Queen of her own profitable website.
So the analogy of an "evil" queen is an acceptable subjective opinion, but when you show up in her lands you're a guest, a peasant. The Queen selects her own society, then shuts the door. Game over.
I have imagined, if there is an afterlife--some sort of Hell or purgatory to which souls go, what sort of torment could await hypnotists who plant suggestions that compel many thousands of lonely souls to them.
Still. Verdict is clearly for Elena. Evidently someone needs a lot more training.
