What’s up with these D4 events where you can’t help the person begging for aid? (lemmy.world)

Dungeon adventurers lying injured who then die their last gasp… ghost of a lost child who asks you to stay with them, and if you do they still say YOU LEFT ME and turn into a demon… ghost whose soul is being fed on by monsters but after you kill the monsters they say “no! please!”

These are just weird and unsatisfying / pitiful endings to these little events. Am I doing the events wrong somehow, and there’s a better ending for them? Seems they end bleak no matter what I do.

I always interpreted the "you left me" line to be applicable to the soul requesting help. That they left the person they're still looking for in death.

Same-ish, I'm seeing it as a soul that's stuck behind in the loop of "where's mother/where's grandfather" and they don't fully see what's in our "real world". (ghosts being stuck in their death loop and not fully interacting with the physical world is a classic fiction trope 😆)
