The epilogue is more completely fanservicey. Even if something not sweet happens we aren't shown. Spawn Astarion, for example, says he'll put spawns on spikes if they get naughty. Not the most merciful punishment in the world for uncontrolled (?) hunger. But for Astarion to stay in the party if Cazador isn't defeated and denied help in the epilogue. He'd be sent to hell and gone, overturning the table wouldn't he?
What stresses me out the most is the 7k story, as if it's a good(?) thing to let them go. "It's okay, everybody's OK". As stated in the letter. Even if they say it's good in big letters, I won't believe it. It's just trading mortals for undead though. Because zero chance that 7k undead won't bring death, and they're already. In the developers notes it says "pure evil" when one of the spawns is overcome by hunger. Also killing them is called "mercy killing". Just kill. Kill for Power. Leave it in the cages. Let it go.
Anyway... knees on randoms, anywhere, with a frightened face when the player clicks, character comes closer and can break up (tadpole), since so afraid and doesn't like dark side Astarion (although last night - loved it). ...
