Despite all i said before, i guess it's legit that we are all angry about how Lexa died. First because she was an epic character (and the favourite of many people), that was always represented as this strong, ruthless but kind/fair badass commander, who survived a lot of stuff. The last one, was that very cool fight with Roan, she succeeded to beat him and survived. And then she died from a fucking stray bullet, it felt like dimishing for her character, 'cause i think that everyone was expecting that if she really had to die, it would be an heroic death, at war or at a fight, or something like that. I suspect the whole unheroic death was sort of the point. She had survived Pauna the gorilla (my fav line: "I need your spirit to stay where it is"), battles, duels, assassination attempts and she was close to achieving something truly remarkable in grounder culture, but she died --  in the most unfortunate of ways: a stray bullet, from her mentor and friend. Something she never anticipated. Death, the great equalizer.

I think the way she died will probably be a plot device and be revisited when the conclave takes place. Titus may not get away with this. What do you think?
