Isle of Val also was never done as a fakeout, we met Krile after that happened so it is a part of her backstory, somebody going "Oh yeah I almost died that one time" isn't a "death fake out"...

And Thancred "bodied by Ran'jit"? Thancred won that fight, it's Ran'jit who's inexcusable that he survived, he was explicitly Thancred's foil in ShB and he should've died by fighting Thancred.
