Kindred's a child killer

Dr Oshawott·10/9/2015, 9:27:09 PM·3 votes·8,312 views

In the recently released lore, 'Forest for the Trees' Kindred comes across a young squire with nothing but a sword. I don't know if he was injured or not but Kindred decides to kill him. And Lamb Laughs at what Wolf did.

Like... are they just?: "Hey Lamb, you see that guy over there" "Yes, what about him" "Lets kill him" "Okay"

Seems like they're bad spirits.

Kindred is an everything killer. They're the Runeterran version of the Grim Reaper.

"Accepting Lamb's arrow." is pretty much a fancy way of saying "dying peacefully".

That's why they hate the Shadow Isles so much, the undead are basically saying "lol nah" to Kindred's judgement of when life should end.

Death makes no exceptions. Death claims infants, children, young adults, adults, and elders all alike.

They said before that Kindred does't choose who to take, they just appear in the final moments of life. Meaning the squire was meant to die regardless. He simply chose to run from a quick death by fleeing the battle.

"But you’re Death," said Mort. "You go around killing people!" I? KILL? said Death, obviously offended. CERTAINLY NOT. PEOPLE GET KILLED, BUT THAT’S THEIR BUSINESS. I JUST TAKE OVER FROM THEN ON. AFTER ALL, IT’D BE A BLOODY STUPID WORLD IF PEOPLE GOT KILLED WITHOUT DYING, WOULDN’T IT?

It seems to me that Kindred is more like a misguided spirit that thinks it is the embodiment of death. Grim Reapers are spirits that takes spirits just when they die. Kindred seems to be killing a little too early for their victims fates is decided.

LoL story is getting more and more brutal, I love it. Tahm Kench is pretty sadistic demon ('' snapped her bones and crushed her limb, this meal? It let me satisfied ''), Kindred doesn't care what they're going to kill, child or innocent. I smell Warhammer atmosphere. Probably because of new w4k writer.

I agree.
