The writers nailed it, don't take that experience away. Make it an inevitable choice everyone has to live through, this content is too rich and fits the tragedy I believe the writers were going for, last minute or not. The reason so many people have grown attached to Karlach is yes, the journey along the way, but the reality of her condition takes it to another level, don't reject this! This is critical.

Absolutely agree with all this. I don't want the current story changed, I just want it expanded and to have a chance to fight for her.

Rake my soul over the damn coals with the sheer terror of my friend or lover dying with no salvation in sight just the same, just give me an option to dig my heels in like I did for others.
