One cannot always agree with the situations in exps, but it cannot be said that many of them are completely without merit. From a realism standpoint (since the goal of an exp is to live out your character's life), you may be an experienced mercenary, but you cannot simultaneously be stronger than an elite guardsman—one of the best warriors in the entire kingdom, equipped with the most expensive armor and weapons available, and trained to fight from infancy. Or you cannot insure yourself against assassins who set a trap for you one way or another. You might be a cool mercenary with 15 years of experience, but that other guy has 30 years, and it's only logical that he can outsmart you. Or, being just some random dude, you're unlikely to be able to insult the local empress to her face and survive. That is exactly why she is the empress—to simply have you hanged for your audacity.
