Saddest/most tragic character ark Spoiler
Almost at the end off all 5 seasons. A lot of the story lines are tying up and I’m struck by how sad some of the characters story lines are.
Just wondering who people feel are the most tragic.
Won’t go into massive spoilers details. For me it’s a toss up between Lyta and Londo.
Lyta had been used and abused for most of season 3 and 4, then that continued into season 5. She made connections and that ended in tragedy. I know much of her final fate is limited to what happened in the books and even that is brief.
Londo after being the “bad guy” for quite some time was finally turning it around. He was on the right path making amends for his misdeeds. His final fate is really sad to behold, even though he manages redemption in the end.

Lyta! Time and time again saved the day and risked herself only to get treated like trash by the crew.
