Exactly. I agree.ankit252 wrote: ↑01 Oct 2020, 07:19 Alderman's death reminded me of Ned Stark's in "A Game of Thrones". Good men killed by politics they did not foresee. It was sad and unfair.
But realistically, it is possible for good men to perish under dangerous politics and wars. Meldorath's arrest had made Hillport weaker. Aldus thought Meldorath was the only threat. He did not know of Riva's advances. Maido neither warned, nor helped him. And Riva took advantage of that.
I don't have to like the fact that Alderman died, but it is understandable. This is also partly why I don't attach myself to the characters in movies or novels. So I don't get sad when the author kills my favourite characters.
In any case, since I can't get angry at the author, Maido is the a-hole.
It is all his fault.
