Hmm... a heart attack might have done it. I still think that if Baldor had any concrete, living enemies around him, there would have been more signs of a struggle. Somehow, the idea of a man who was born and bred to fight, suddenly quailing and turning into a gibbering wreck at the sight of other living, breathing warriors, just doesn't make sense to me.
