Takumi's dialogue about not trusting Kamui or Aqua, even though he's known her for years, could imply that the Hoshidans never treated her as family, just a hostage. In that case, she'd have plenty of reasons to go with Kamui to Nohr...though it does make the question of why she'd go back to Hoshido even more suspicious. I'm not certain she's the true antagonist, but she's definitely hiding something.
Aqua's singing powers are even mentioned to be great and mysterious. And since Kamui was strangling her underwater, maybe Kamui doesn't even trust her him/herself, and is trying to actually kill you, but then somehow Aqua convinces Kamui to apologize to her, (how they get out of the water its impossible to say for sure) she weasels her way out of danger. I feel like Aqua is a parasite whom likes to use those close to her for her own purposes. We can't be too far off. She must be hiding at least ONE thing.

Just to mix up the moral ambiguity of the game. Like how Garon is the Big Bad with sympathetic motives, she's the Big Good with a shady past. To me, her face looks way too calm and serene to be anything but a mask. Maybe she bred Kamui to be a war machine. Maybe she was a Mata Hari who seduced her way into her position. Or heck, the game mentions her husband's "unexpected death", maybe she had him murdered so she could take the throne.
These WMGs make me, Kotor happy. Not only is someone casting suspicion on Aqua, but on Mikoto as well.
I, Kotor will make my own prediction. Each path will have its own big bad with their own motives. The main antagonist of the Third Path will act like a "bigger bad" of sorts for Hoshido's and Nohr's bid bad. Influencing them to carry out their ambitions. There will be hints of the existence of the Third Path big bad on the Hoshido and Nohr campaigns, but that's as far as they will go. Only when Kamui decides to side with neither nation do we learn more on the Third Path big bad's identity. Once Kamui figures it out, he/she will force the two nations to put aside their differences and team up to take on this greater threat.
