Talk:Clarke and Finn/@comment-92.10.59.49-20150204072324/@comment-26500342-20150911032946

I'm not going to comment on the other points but I have to disagree with @TheOmegaWerewolf when you say that only Finn's death messed her up in the head. Sure, it screwed her up, but it was only the first major event in many that eventually caused her decision to leave her people. She didn't leave because of Finn. If that was the only thing weighing on her, I'm sure she would have stayed because it didn't really involve her people as much. She left because of TonDc and the people in Mount Weather and she left because she didn't believe that she was suitable to lead her people any more. It had very little to do with Finn; that affected her in a different way, but deep down I think she knew that killing him was the right thing to do.

Her death count is 876. Only one of those was Finn's death which definitely probably seemed like a whole lot more than one life to her, but when it came down to it it was the other 875 people she was responsible for their deaths that drove her away.
