I find this one more depressing than 877. Seeing Durkon like that is just wrong.

But I wonder if this will lead to some kind of character growth for Belkar. He's definitely shocked.

Classic Bond Villain mistake. Letting a hero live.

Heh ... Belkar ... hero ... in the same thought ...

Add "anti-" in that statement... I smell a "spaghetti-fantasy" arch forming ending with Belkar dying as he kills Durkon/Malack thus earning his redemption.

It has been a long time since I read it, but wasn't Belkar predicted to return home posthumously and that his return would be a disaster for his people?

 

[Relique du Madde]

No it was Durkon.

 

[Grumpy RPG Reviews]

Blast it. I meant Durkon.

Specifically, he was exiled because it was said that if he returned home, bad things would happen.

Later, when the Oracle was asked how/when he would return, he was told post humously.

This, then, would appear to be a twist to make that second one not so good...

Which is actually pretty stupid when you think about it.
When bad things happen when someone returns, simply do not let him leave.
