Rania kept trying to sabotage Camilla. She would intentionally steal her seat at the table, she take Camilla's tea time with the Duke and she basically tried to win over everyone on Camilla's sideband failed. However, she is actually a fake Rania. She's someone who possessed Rania's body (real Rania is dead). Anyway, fake Rania's ploy didn't work so she first tried to poison the Duke, but he recovered because Camilla gave him the antidote that the previous patriarch gave to her next, she kidnapped Camilla and assumed her face, but real Camilla showed up and basically Fake Rania was exposed.
Ludville's mother and the duke’s first wife was a gypsy named Anna. She was part of the cult of Eva Gyo that swap people's souls and steals their bodies. The cult has been trying to infiltrate the dukedoms for many years, so they sent Anna to marry Duke Sorfel. The plan was to have a child and then trade his soul for a cult member, but Ludville as the first son had divine protection and they could not steal his body. In the end Anna fell in love with the duke and loved Ludville very much, so she had no intention of harming them or letting the cult steal their bodies.
