Why wasn't there a way to throw Isabela and Merril off a bridge?

I know I can but that make Merril hate me and I can't stand it. And I know Merril knows there is a price but she doesn't know how far it could go which is what happened with the keeper. Yes she was willing to deal with the demon and have me strike her down if anything goes wrong but she didn't know how far the keeper would have gone to keep her safe from it
It's not Merrill's responsibility to look out for the Keeper. She can't decide things for Marethari. All she can do is keep the risk on her, which is what she did. That Marethari swooped down and snatched that risk away is on her and her alone.

It's important to remember that Merrill's blood magic or her eluvian project never actually kills a single person(*); everybody that dies around Merrill dies as a result of their own panicking over the idea of Merrill doing blood magic. Her actual blood magic lab accident rate is zero.
And to spend six years fiddling around in the guts of very powerful and unknown magic, with only the half-truths and booby-trapped bull**** of a demon as your instruction manual, and not have anything blow up in your face even once? That's a lot of skill.
(*) Although her regular magic probably kills a couple hundred people or so over the course of three acts... but its not like Hawke's anybody to talk, given that 'Death by Hawke' is probably its own entire statistical category on Kirkwall's annual mortality reports.
ha ha agree 100%

That speaks of her own arrogance, she thought she could solve and shut down Merril's problem and paid for it.

From what we are told, the demon is an exceptionally powerful one. While Merrill did not force the Keeper to absorb the demon, we do know that the Keeper did so to protect Merrill. The Keeper knew that Merrill would eventually need to use the demon to finish the mirror, and that Merrill was not strong enough to resist the demon. Thus, because of her love for Merrill, the Keeper took the demon into herself to save Merrill. So, indirectly it's Merrill's fault because she insisted on taking the course of action she did. The Keeper chose her own course of action, like a mother would to protect her child from a harmful situation.

Indeed the Keeper went in unescorted without informing anyone and got her ass possessed. No, really?

Did she? My interpretation was that she sacrificed herself so Merril wouldn't have to. You could say that maybe she didn't have enough faith in Merril's skills or whatever, but I don't think her decision stemmed from arrogance but instead love.

Woman, if you know that Merrill is going to have to kill you, because you're deliberately setting it up that way... the least you could do is write Merrill an excuse note before you go, so that the rest of the clan doesn't, y'know, do what they did?
If you want someone to help you with your assisted suicide, its really bad form to leave them holding the bag for your apparent murder. This is why the Keeper should have told the clan 'I'm going to die.'
