They killed him and Yda cause they didn't fit the narrative tbh., no place anymore for the comedic duo in the story after 1.0. That's why they killed him and butchered Yda.
Neither of them were actually there if you think about it. Both were pretty forgettable, and barely had any personality.
Feel the same way. In fact I think Pala went to pave the way for Yda's exist. The scion went from a small support faction to an all important world power, and its member are shown to have an equal sitting as the leaders in discussing state matter. Maybe they felt the stereotype dumb blonde can't be a good fit anymore.
But I missed both of them. The current scion are all serious type, and most good set of characters need a one or two simple joker and muscle head to keep the balance. Also a simple muscle head like Yda can be a valuable outlet for extra exposition when the writer feels they need to explain something in more detail. All the current scion are also too much in synch which may be what make them boring to some, but that's why it helps to have a character in the group that may not be on the same wave length with the rest all the time.
Looking at the current pool of whom may become new Scion in the feature, they're still all serious characters (like Zero or Fordola). Regardless of what people may think about Yda as a character, her old "archetype" is something the Scion current composition is badly missing.
