Joan said her mother lost a daughter and wanted revenge Then Joan died Did 001 lose two children?
Alison Yes. Joan's mother had lost her son, and Joan, as mentioned during the therapy sessions with Camille, forever lived in the shadow of her grief. Joan's…moreYes. Joan's mother had lost her son, and Joan, as mentioned during the therapy sessions with Camille, forever lived in the shadow of her grief. Joan's mother started The Collective after losing her son, then turned The Collective against Camille after Joan died. Though Camille didn't murder Joan, her mother was at that point so consumed with grief and drunk with power, that she used The Collective to exact revenge on the person she decided was responsible for her one remaining child's death.(less)
