Ideology
If existence is hereditary suffering, mercy may mean preventing the future from being born.
Case File 02 / Psychological Report
A royal-blooded Warrior who turns childhood betrayal, parental indoctrination, and racial persecution into an ideology of extinction disguised as mercy. Zeke Yeager is compassion sterilized by despair.
Zeke's psychology is trauma intellectualized into policy. As a child, he is not loved as a son so much as used as proof, project, and revolutionary instrument. His betrayal of his parents is both survival and psychic rupture. Xavier gives him tenderness, but also a philosophy that lets Zeke reinterpret annihilation as kindness.
His euthanasia plan is not simple hatred. It is anti-natalism born from unbearable inheritance: if history only repeats persecution, then preventing birth feels like preventing suffering. That is what makes him dangerous. Zeke's empathy is real enough to feel pain and damaged enough to conclude that life itself is the cruelty. His final beauty is the late recognition that small experiences, play, weather, ordinary moments, may be enough to challenge the prison of his philosophy.
