And in the end, I have to go with what he believes himself - that he was, at that moment, ready to kill her.
I don't know, I still think he was after the boy first. It is just how that scene reads to me emotionally. Why would Niobe kill hersef otherwise? She had no way to protect her son after she died!!! I have to agree to disagree here!!!
For me, I have to approach this from THEIR mindset.
You see, if we approach entirely from their mindset, their mother was under the death sentence, so to speak. I know it was their MOTHER, but basically her killing by Vorenus could not be seen upon as some crime from their POV, right? And even cursing could have been viewed as something that is sort of applicable to the situation.
