Rest in Peace Lydia

She died fighting a bunch of bandits, apparently. Unfortunately it took me about three quests to realize she wasn't following me around anymore and by then it wasn't worth reloading my save. I actually feel a little bad, but at least I won't have to hear her say "I am sworn to carry your burdens" anymore.

I've used the elf in riverwood, any other good traveling companions?

Look on the bright side... You might have 99 problems but a bitch ain't one!

I just take Shadowmere from the Dark Brotherhood quests. The thing solo'd a couple trolls the other day.
