#after all why wouldnt he vaguely respect someone who escaped enslavement to a devil?

[kawareo]

Idk if this is a hot take but the way I see him, Gortash never gave the slightest shit about Karlach. I think he might have found her useful and capable for a while but then he didn't need her anymore and just wrote her off like nothing.

I think he sold her to a devil and felt nothing and then wandered if that was what his parents felt like after they've sold him.

I think he genuinely never thought about her again until she showed up at his coronation and I think that only after that, he would've even consider respecting her; she escaped Hells now? She takes what she wants now? She isn't blind to how evil he is anymore? Now we're talking!

She was far from the only one he treated this way, he had trouble keeping track
