Back in Heavensward (and spoiler-tagging just to be safe)...
the real potency of Haurchefant's death wasn't its impact on our character, but on going back to Camp Dragonhead and talking to all the people around there that had something to say about it. And then their scripts update after finishing Heavensward and again after Dragonsong, as they start to come to terms with it. Francel has particularly lovely things to say, and I really hope he get some further plot involvement soon.
Oh wow, I didn't know about that dialogue around Haurchefant in Havensward, at the time I was so focused on completing the story fast that I didn't take that time to interact with any of the NPCs. Hopefully with new game + I'll go back and read everything. Thanks for sharing that!
