User blog comment:Emily Windsnap/Why Elyan's death wasn't sad at all..../@comment-5515850-20121114075230

I agree, Elyan was not as good a character as the other knights. I'm glad it wasn't Gwaine who died in The Dark Tower. That would have been really sad. The knights wouldn't be the same without him, in my opinion, and anyway, someone needed to die. It can't just be that the knights keep getting away with just a few minor injuries. But Elyan's death was also in a way sad.
