So does Vayne represent the dark-side of Demacia?

So Vayne's lore was pretty interesting in her old lore she seemed to skirt the line between hero and anti-hero but here it seems she's deep in the anti-hero or probably villain category. That's not a bad thing, I think it's a good change to show Demacia isn't always the heroes.

In her new lore she hunts magic wielding people and monsters for sport and apparently torments them, kills her only friend and mother figure without any hesitation immediately after Frey tried to save her life because she used magic to do so.

Kind of reminds me of Miss Fortune's new lore except Miss Fortune despite having her family killed by Gangplank and growing pure hate for him afterwards and plunging her entire city into a civil war to kill him, she still seems to know who her friends are and who isn't, even tries to make new friends like with her and Lucian, and in the end seems to grow a genuine concern for the people of Bilgewater.

I would say Fiora's lore better represents the dark side of Demacia's ideals. Vayne seems pretty fringe to Demacian society, she takes their anti magic zeal to a new level but other than that her story isn't showing you a negative side of Demacia's culture.

Fiora's lore on the other hand, really shows how Demacia's honor code can ruin a lot of people's lives.

And then Lux and Garen's interactions in the new stories do a better job of showing Demacia's backwards attitudes towards magic too, with some more nuance.
