    I think there's plenty of compelling reasons as to why a Scion could or should have permanently died. If the intention is to have a second coming of the apocalypse, then having not a single major character perish doesn't really make it much of an apocalypse as far as I'm concerned.

    It also gets rather tiresome to see the likes of Moenbryda paraded around as a tragic death. For those of us who have been playing all along, not only do we not necessarily care...it was an event that happened almost a decade ago.

    The message of 'moving on from the past' and 'you can't bring back what is lost' also falls flat when the major characters repeatedly evade death and in some cases come back from it.

    We also only knew Moenbryda for what seemed like 5 quests, at least that's what it felt like for me. Hardly time to develop any long standing feelings toward a character. Especially since her appearance was so sudden.
