The second kind of goes with my theory of history repeating itself. I basically theorized that Alice the 8th and 16th both had a trauma that made their tolerance of humans quite unstable. And it was the action of one human that could cause both to go full-blown tyrant. In Alice's case, after her Mother's death, one slip-up could've made her worse than Black Alice. In Black Alice's case, it must've happened later into her life. As in when she had the power to go tyrannical and conquer the world.

She obviously had a mate. But if it was a full-blown romance was hard to say. The rule of the husband being strong meant the lover she lost had to have been quite powerful alone. So a basic hero storming the gates, killing her husband, only to get killed by Black Alice and triggering her reign of terror would be a difficult feat. It's stated a Hero, similar to Luka, destroyed her love and compassion and left a dangerous and merciless being. So Heinrich had to have been part of the trigger. Or at least Heinrich's father was also a hero and the situation was similar to Marcellus killing Alice 15th. Only instead of a young Monster Lord who's power is weak and still has a motherly figure afterwards and can regain any emotional stability, it's a full-grown Monster Lord at the peak of her power and no one or nothing to help her regain her composure and emotions.

Unlike our other main antagonists, Black Alice was never really touched upon for back-story and motives too well. She's less of a tragic villain so we never saw what made her that way unlike Ilias or Promestein. So everything is subject to speculation or if it will finally be talked about in the story of Paradox. (As Ilias mentioned knowing Black Alice and Promestein in a similar scenario to Chapter 3 during Paradox's demo.)
