And, the body count grows. (Ha ha. One of them IS a count.)
I don’t kill for shock value. I don’t think that’s a good reason to do much of anything. I kill characters because of consequences in the plotting. Eondel, unfortunately, was doomed the moment he decided to exact revenge on Telrii. He didn’t have enough men to both get in and out of the king’s chambers.
I think this is a legitimate reaction for Eondel, however, based on how his character. He was honest, straightforward, and he respected Roial a great deal. He knew that Raoden would never condone an attack like this, but he also thought that it would be best for the country if he killed Telrii. So, he went and preformed his ‘assassination.’ This is supposed to be a little ironic, considering the events and decisions of the last chapter.
