I forgot how Pippin died from the first time of me reading this, but now i've re-read it, and can confirm Pippin died like a true warrior. The fact he sacrificed himself for the lives of others is very honorary. Corkus, on the other hand....
eh, both deaths are very devastating. I really tried to get to know Corkus as a character this time around, too...
RIP Pippin & Corkus
