Now the Fate point is not A Get Out of Jail Free card and failing the roll would still mean that something bad happens. Alric could have suffered a maiming or a crippling wound, or in this case as it was a roll for Malevus, she could have died. There would have been consequences.
If you didn't have the Fate point and Alric died, I would have continued the quest, but it would have been from the point of view of someone else and most likely had went into completely different direction.
Answering these questions is fun so keep them coming.
