The alignment is listed as neutral evil and we're told it's a tool of evil, but read the text - it cares about nothing except completing the task it is given, doing nothing but attempting to fulfill its duties until its existence ends.
That's the most lawful neutral thing I've ever heard of. How are they trying to justify neutral evil?

It's a hag's mind slave. That condition of slavery does not reflect upon its alignment. If it were somehow set free, it would behave in a neutral evil way.
It's not hard to understand. Dominated people don't suddenly change alignment either.

They were invented by hags. And like everything hags make they are pure evil.
Hags are cool, but my group never uses them. The one time we fought them we accidently tricked a kraken into killing them for us.

Hags are so fucking cool.
Even yugoloths, beings made of pure neutral evil, don't seem to be as evil as hags. Yugoloths may be completely self-interested mercenaries, but they don't have that touch of creativity or that bottomless spite. A night hag will devote her life to elaborately fucking with people, getting their hopes up and then dropping them into the depths of despair. Not because it benefits herself in any way, just for the lulz.

It's less for the lulz, and more for the psychotic condition they have that takes all of their personal feminine insecurities to the extreme.
Ugly? They must destroy all beauty.
Barren? They must kidnap kids and create proxy children.
Shunned? They must rage and hate the world.

Sounds like 4chan, minus the barren part.

Because it will obsessively employ evil means to achieve its goals.

One of the ingredients for the ritual is Evil(tm)

Not like it matters anyway.
Because if a hag ordered it to break local law in a lawful evil hamlet, it would fucking do it.
