Add topicMutual Kill?
[edit]Can this actually be called a mutual kill? A mutual kill is where two characters kill each other by their own devices I'd say, as happened here. But Oilback died a good deal later. So maybe this is not a mutual kill? I couldn't say confidently myself. Taggerung Warrior of Redwall 14:50, August 2, 2011 (UTC)
We consider Cuthbert Blanedale Frunk and Slothunog's deaths a mutual kill, though the Slothunog did not kill Cuthbert intentionally; he mereley sank with the hare still riding on his back and the hare drowned. Therefore, I believe Oilback's death can be considered a mutual kill.
God Bless,

I question the Mutual Kill myself. While yes, Oilback did take the poisoned grog from the beast he just slew, the grog was originally poisoned by Badrang for Clogg. So can it truly be called a Mutual Kill? I see it as more of a case of multiple mistaken identities...-Segalia Riverstorm, Otter Warrior File:Segalia.png Living and writing adventures,1 Cor. 1:7-9 23:32, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
When Bragoon and Saro pushed Kharanjul's Horde off of the cliff on the log, they fell for a while. Bane's attacks on Argulor only caused a part of his death, as his heart gave way after. Urthstripe the Strong pulled Ferahgo the Assassin to their deaths. This is just the same, although it may be mentioned on the mutual kills page that Oilback died accidentally. Also, by this logic, Luke the Warrior and Vilu Daskar died a mutual death. I know this issue was addressed before, but it seems to be similar to the current debate.
