I do think that Borlock's death jarred something in Delvin and probably that would not have happened otherwise. Him trying to understand his friend's death was most likely his psyche coming to terms with what possibly lay ahead.

Yes. I'm of the opinion that Borlock had to die. This is so because I feel Delvin wouldn't have reached his optimum level if this didn't happen.

I believe Delvin is deeply mourning the loss of Borlock, who was not only his friend but also his mentor. Borlock's passing has made Delvin realize the profound impact he had on his life. Had it not been for Borlock's demise, Delvin might not have comprehended the true significance of his teacher's role. Indeed, it is through Borlock's death that Delvin inherited the stone, setting in motion the captivating tale of his adventures. The loss of his dear friend has become the catalyst for a transformative journey, shaping Delvin's destiny in unexpected ways.
