HER seems to be based on the impulse to do evil, not necessarily the conscience decision. We see this in Blood-Stained Switch when MAYU characterizes this as "another HER" which may be something similar to what Kiril goes through. We never get any insight into Irina's psyche so who knows how it works.

Either way, we need to update Hereditary Evil Raiser Syndrome's article a bit too. I'm giving the pass on these changes.

This happens really close to the end of the light novel (Chapter 6). I want to say it's to give us more backstory to Elluka, since I don't think she gets a major appearance until this chapter but I may be wrong.
