I agree 100%.
Oblivion didn't offer too many "Oh my god!" shock moments -- most of the quests were quite predictable.
The DB quests though were full of mystery, back-stabbing and coniving and Lucien's death was an utter, draw-dropping shock.
Lucien was a friend for me -- he picked me up out of the gutter and showed me a warm loving home.
Then when we worked side-by-sided in Fort Farragut, we bonded terrifically. :hugs:
So then way he was killed and butchered was just horrible, and left me half-wondering if i should kill every last son-of-a-daedra Black Hand, in the hope of getting the Informant.
So, yes, I would quite have liked to give him a proper burial, a little tombstone outside Applewatch maybe, where he can watch the sunrise over Cyrodiil. :violin:
R.I.P. Lucien.
