Ishido wanted her taken alive and she wanted to die. So it was maybe partially to shield others from debris, but also to make sure they couldn't kidnap her.

I just don't understand how you go from writing such an amazing season, to that nonsensical scene.

Totally worth reading the book. I have liked the show, but the book is fantastic

It was on sale with several others in the Asian Saga. I bought them all for cheap on Audible

This is the challenge with the entire series. They don't make it easy, so it takes a while and probably repeated
