That doesn't make her a victim; far from it. But that's part of what I like about KoA. Now, if there'd been a Persuasion option to let the Maid scamper off to Belize with her bikini and a barrelful of gold, I might let her do that.
The Persuaion trainer in HoB might make a good replacement Maid But there's not, so the Maid isn't making it to morning. Nalkor View Profile View Posts. Originally posted by ZeDango :.

I think this where the whole "fate" thing gets a little confusing.
Ostensibly, only the Fateless One can truly change things, and everyone else is stuck with "fate". In theory, the Maid's actions--even the more dangerous ones that occur during the quest line--are not truly her own, and the Fateless One is required to break her free of this cyclical torment.
All the same, I don't entirely understand why she couldn't simply leave. Are the high-ranking "good guys" just so insistent on reenacting the whole thing that the maid is targeted as the bad guy regardless? Personally, I spared her. Little or no death occured in my game because of her actions, thanks to a high dispell and some potions.
At the least, another death wasn't necessary to end the cycle, and would, in fact, continue it, much to the chagrin of a lot of the fae. And that's another reason why I spared her: I had the impression whole "ballads" thing was getting out of hand. Very few of the fae seemed happy as noted by their dialogues while under the Maid's spell, and some of the additional story that shows itself, like the king's own cowardice , and putting incredible importance on reenacting old stories while the members were miserable and the world is falling apart around them seemed both foolish and childlish.
I figured that my Fateless One could do a heck of a lot more good by putting the kibosh on the whole thing. At the very least, I had the impression they needed to accept and understand that it's necessary to be open to change, perhaps even for survival.
I just remembered another reason why I spared her: that garden of hers where the wild fae chill out and aren't hostile. That seemed like a "good guy" thing to do, and the Ballads' insistence that I invade that and wreck it made them the bad guys in my eyes.

I chose the third option. I also got the twist of fate card at the end. Sign up or log in Sign up using Google.

For killing in reckoning mode you get quite a lot of xp. User Info: sunfy User Info: feraldrgn. Minor minor spoilers I killed her, used the "ignore her" option, since I didn't want to be a hypocrit by saying that she's destined to die.
Also since there was evidence that she was affected by an enchanting crystal, I think the nicest thing to do was to kill her, there was a chance when she revived she wouldn't be under the crystals spell anymore. It's hard to tell if you've been brought to the world as a fateless to change things, or if you've been brought to stop the change brought on by the Tuatha which relates to the maid also.

Yeah I killed her a bunch of times at least 10 to see if it was a fluke, but she drops absolute crap.
