1) Abandoning her daughter for no real reason for more than a decade, never making herself known. Even though she has a Portal Semblance that would've let her visit Yang at any moment in just a second and go back to the tribe just as quickly.

2) Being perfectly willing to sacrifice said daughter along with her own brother for the sake of getting the relic for herself with nothing that even implies that she would've decided to help them out once she got the relic.

3) Trying to turn a scared, lonely and likely traumatized child AKA the previous Spring Maiden into a sociopathic killer. And when that failed because Raven sucks at empathy and sympathy, she decided to kill her, under the excuse that "it was mercy".

4) Considering she's the current Spring Maiden, that also means she killed Spring in a way that was not inmediate and made sure she thought of Raven last.

Which makes the excuse bullshit: If Raven wanted to give Spring a merciful death, she would've killed her in a way that was swift and painless, maybe in her sleep. Alas, she clearly didn't, and it cannot be because she messed up the hit, she's too skilled and too used to killing people for that.

I seriously question your morals if you would simply call all that "being proactive" and sweep it under the rug.
