Sky Above,Voice Within wrote: Astrid, the wh***. She can be compared to Mathieu Bellamont, and everytime i remember him, i remember LaChance's mutilated body and how the DB was murdered off, by me. Astrid never followed the Tenets, and Lucien's line about not killing Cicero contributed to this decision. Keep in mind though that Mathieu Bellamont was wanting to destroy the Dark Brotherhood from the very beginning; it was something he was determined to do.

Astrid was thinking on the part of her "family" in the Dark Brotherhood. She made the call to sell off the Listener to save the others (even though it really didn't work). She never planned on it from the get-go.
