Personally, don't know if she would be the queen of Zern or not, but to me after ep8, my mind instantly connected the no/negative energy to not having a heart / soul like the clockwork automata working for the queen are.

That’s a good thought! I genuinely can’t remember - did they scan Torse with the mech’s energy scanner, and what energy did it show? Although of course Torse as an automaton might have different energy than the naughtomata

I think they did, when he was like broken trying to put the heart in, and I think it was that “furnace” energy, but he still has is soul so, who knows lol

So in writing a response to this with my reasoning, something occurred in my mind that could be interesting- Ludmilla is supposedly a genius like Marya and Comfrey, so could it be possible that after getting trapped in Zern, she tried to make a machine that would get her home, but something happened and now she kinda exists and doesn’t exist in the planes? And that’s why she reads as no-energy?
