"Well, you COULD also do this dumb, stupid choice that only horrible people do, I guess. If you wanna be an asshole...."
And, that is life sometimes, you don't get many choices. And sometimes there is only the choice that hurts you and the one that hurts someone(s) else. Yet is is shocking how some people in their real LIVES choose the dumb, stupid choice that hurts others.
As far as the ending goes, I think the story isn't about choices, it about finally accepting that the petty things we want that only make us happy for a short time, are not the best choices. We can make the selfish choices, but we cannot subvert what the pain those choices cause.
People fight me on this, but IN THIS game world, fate is active. FYI: You don't have to believe in fate in your real life; just like you don't have to believe in elves. However, in LiS fate (or teh grim reaper if you want) is real, just as in LotR elves are real. Sorry, you don't to choose what is real in stories you don't write.) Chloe will keep getting killed - until we accept it. Or, we let fate (the grim reaper) have a hissy fit over a town.
