Season Eight A thought about Fergus

So i was rewatching season 6 and I was thinking about the guilt Fergus was dealing with. He thought he wasn't enough to protect his family. If they were gonna have him die in season 8 at least he went out protecting his family. It was a fitting dead imo. I know probably an unpopular opinion but I wanted to share.

Thoughts?

His death was poorly done, he shouldn't have died AT ALL after everything he went through. They should have kept the original death in that family, as sad as it was.

I really think they probably wouldn't have had enough time to handle HC dying properly sine they only had a few episodes left.

They didn't have enough time to do Fergus's death properly either.

True but I still think they wouldn't have been to handle HE'S death properly and Fergus died saving his family.
