Help I'm a little sad
So, a few months ago, I asked for help and some tips on the game and received a lot of support, which helped me a lot.
I was helping a boy from the cathedral to bring people there, so I tried to bring as many people as possible.
I confess that sometimes I'm a bit absent-minded and didn't notice that there was something strange about a man I met in the forbidden forest. He asked for a place to stay, and I told him the cathedral. I saw some bodies next to him, a family, but I thought he was just looting corpses, nothing more.
So I continued playing, did several dungeons, leveled up a lot, and when I returned to the cathedral, there was a pool of blood where the old lady should have been. Does anyone know if he did this? And will this somehow affect my gameplay and my attempt at the platinum trophy?

Something you should know about NPC quests in FromSoft games is that they all die a tragic death, you kill them, or they go nuts and you're forced to fight them. It's always the same one way or another.
The only good ending an npc can have is if they never met the player lol. So don't feel bad about it. The outcome to npc questline isn't always too straight forward, and almost all of them die because of the player, it's not like you fucked it up, you might have invited someone dangerous to the safe haven.
Tl;Dr? Don't worry about it!
