Mrs Coulter may not have done right by Lyra, or known how to love her properly, but you can't deny that she loved her daughter with her entire being. You can see it just in the way she looks at Lyra. By Season 2, everything she ever did was to try and keep her daughter safe.
Lyra is all she lived for in the end, and Mrs Coulter made the ultimate sacrifice for her daughter, not only to keep her safe, but to give Lyra a better life where she could be free to live her life to the fullest.
I'm grateful they diverted from The Amber Spyglass so that Lyra got to have a final moment with her mother in some way, if only with her dæmon, but, as we know now, Monkey was the BEST of Mrs Coulter. Lyra came to fear and hate them after what happened in 1x02, but at the end of 3x07 Lyra's instincts told her that something major and very distressing was happening to them, especially when Monkey reached out for her with his face full of sadness and love.
**Remember that not even children touch their parent's dæmons and vice versa**
But Lyra reached out for Monkey. She reached out for her mother. She tried to comfort her and let her mother know that she was there with her despite everything she had put her through. None of that mattered to Lyra in that moment. She was just a daughter concerned for her mother.
That is something I think about every day.
This is only a small edit, but I hope it packs a punch. I'll have more Mrs Coulter & Lyra edits coming in the future.
