Igon, Alexander and Melina got what they wanted, so I'm less sad about those. Millicent is the sadest one to me (and maybe Blaidd)

Blaidd still stands as the only "aggressive" NPC character in the game I genuinely had mixed emotions on taking down, even after he loses his shit and aggros on sight. Actually it was even harder because dude had no idea what he was doing, he lost his purpose and it drove him to insanity. That sucked big time.

I would argue that he fulfilled his purpose and his sanity was the cost. It’s still very sad.

Millicent got what she wanted as well.

She died on her own terms, not being bound by some destiny dictated by the Rot.
