Dramatic question

So.... is it better to kill off the completely inconvenient wife who is only evident in canon because her son wasn't hatched from an egg, or have her Go West, somewhat petulantly? Trying to not to entirely demonizing a non-character, while also not wanting to be overly sympathetic, and leave slashy husband some leeway for technical infidelity without making him a total cad.

Talk amongst yourselves.

I guess she can't cloister herself in a convent and take vows of silence...?

You can see how she ended up... here!

I actually have (sort of) gone the cloister route with one of my other "inconvenient wives." That's such a horrible thing to call them! I really don't bash female characters, even if it sounds like I do!
