My answer is, I don't think even YOU actually believe it would be the norm, if you think about it objectively for a few minutes. What I'm saying is, you probably wouldn't declare the brother pointlessly dead. I think you demonstrate a very significant amount of experience and understanding of how people want games to play out, and if this was literally happening on your table, you would be very unlikely to just present the situation as a dead end like this. I think you'd come up with something, just like you'd probably come up with something if the PCs decided to just head west off the edge of your sandbox map, right? It is really basically the same sort of thing, you would not (most likely) erect a 10 mile high wooden barrier at the west edge of your map! So is it really the norm for anyone to play that way? (well, sure, it is probably for someone somewhere, but IMHO they have a short career as a GM ahead of them).</blockquote>
