Oh man... So many possibilities. Also everyone seems to think Nat will kill them (and they're right).
As for Natalie being killed though, instead of people I will suggest routes.
Route 1: Corruption, Natalie progresses past her current dalliances with monetarists and begins to take orders from Lolorito. Eventually she goes too far, and is taken down either officially or unofficially by other law enforcement agents. (Possible people involved, Roen, Coat, Khan'a, Anelia, Osric, Askier.)
Route 2: Sacrifice, Natalie ends up losing her life in the defence of something. Perhaps in the call of duty, or trying to help one of her friends or lovers. (Most likely subjects, Kage, Franz, Crofte.)
Route 3: Jealousy. Natalie gets steamy with the wrong invidual, or with the wrong indivuals lover. They decide they must have their revenge. (most likely subjects, all of eorzea)
Route 4: Improper Safety procedures. "Let me just take a candle to the shed and check how much gunpowder we have." (most likely subject, Natalie)

Gods that shrill cry was getting on the Elezen's last nerve. She turned her head, placing her cheek against the cold stone as she fought to catch her breath. She wouldn't be able to outrun the primal forever, not only did the hell spawn have flight on her side, but Menelwen was quickly finding herself out of breath. She flexed her fingers, gripping her horas tightly. She had had to make it out of this alive. All she had to do was keep moving. Maybe if she was able to find better cover, she could---

"Heehee HAHA hahaha HEEHEE haha HEEEEEE!!!!"
A curse spilled past her lips as a torrent of air crashed overhead, destroying part of the pillar she was taking cover behind. Her arms moved over her head, shielding herself from the falling debris. She couldn't stay there, she was a sitting duck if she remained in such an open area. Quickly, she pulled herself up to her feet and pressed her back against the stone that remained. THINK woman! Her one eye danced over the field of soiled earth and crumbled stone. There was no other cover, not for a great distance, but where that was...Menelwen didn't know. The swirling vortex she was trapped in hindered her sight, making it near impossible to see just how far things were.

...Fuck. She was going to die if she didn't move, or worse. The Elezen broke into a run, making a straight bee line for a second set of pillars. She quickly found herself skidding to a halt however, as a small tornado struck the ground around the woman's hopeful cover. Within seconds, the heavy, thick slab of stones were reduced to fine grain.
"You think this but a game?!"
She turned her head, her gaze locked onto the giant primal, her claws and talons were stained with Adder blood.

"That foul stench...that...disgusting smell! You mock me with your mortality, landwalker!"
Her heart skipped once, twice. This was no time to have an empty head, yet no matter how much she thought, no strategy popped into the Elezen's mind. No plan, no escape route, nothing. Her fingers tightened around her horas as what was happening finally dawned on the woman.
She was going to die.
With a clenched jaw, she bolted forward. She would not go down without a fight, she would not have her body scattered across the land without at least trying to survive. Her brothers and sisters in arms had already fallen, their bows and spears broken on the destroyed land.
"NONE SHALL STAND AGAINST THE WIND!"
Screams rolled past her ears, causing an agonizing migraine to form as she struck out, striking a clawed hora against the primal. Garuda struck out with her own talon, catching the weapon and Menelwen's arm in her large claw. A cry parted the Elezen's lips as the hell spawn dug her sharp talons into her flesh, easily cutting through the thick leather and meeting flesh and bone.
"I would feast upon your aether.."
Menelwen struck out again, this time with her right leg. She met her mark, her leg smashing into Garuda's side. The primal snarled, choosing to only tighten her grip.
"You seek to stand against me?! AGAINST WIND ITSELF?!" The primal cried out, howling into Menelwen's face. Slowly, a sick and twisted grin split Garuda's lips. Her eyes, blacker than night, earned a sinister glint. Her lips parted again, but this time, she did not screech a threat, or howl a warning. "I...claim you, landwalker!"
Menelwen's heart stopped at the primals words. She...she would what?! No, no, no! Panic began to settle into the Elezen, causing her to try and rip her left arm out from the Primal's talons. This proved to be a poor decision, as sinew and muscle tore against the ever present claws.
"PRAY TO ME! PRAY TO YOUR GOD!" Garuda struck out with her other talon, grasping Menelwen by her neck. The Elezen gasped, the hora in her right hand falling to the ground, her now free hand going to clutch at Garuda's talon. She watched in fear as the Primal inhaled, and...for a moment, it was quiet. She turned her gaze away as much as she could, her eyes stretching across the land. As Dogberry's circlet shattered around her neck, she swore that she could see a group of people outside the vortex, their shapes and sizes very much humanoid, and seemingly...frantic. Perhaps it was her mind playing tricks on her as Garuda sang her song, throwing the Elezen back to the earth below.
....
"...Sing to me~♪."
Garuda's words came to Menelwen as she slowly stood, her arm and collar drenched in her own blood. "...My one true angel." The Elezen whispered, her gaze slowly lifting to meet Garuda's. She lowered herself to a knee, bowing to the feathered primal.
"I am yours to serve, my winged angel.

I think the most likely character to kill or get Crisiet killed at the moment is... Well... Crisiet.
If not? Any character loyal to Ishgard would have a reason to murder him, I guess. Or drag him back to Coerthas, which would also kill him.

"I'll do it," Dogberry said to those assembled, shooting a glance at Stormwind and Rhianna. He picked up the now unconscious Menelwen in his arms and walked solemnly away before any objections or suggestions could be made. With a moment's concentration, the aether swept them away to the Shroud.
"I don't know what you would have wanted," Dogberry said to her as he carried her into a glen in the woods. "But as far as last views go, I think you could do worse, aye?" She stirred in his arms.
"My angel..." she whispered weakly.
"Hardly," he said, holding back tears as he sat down, holding her closely to him. Her struggling was faint and managable.
"Shh," he shushed her. "I'll sing you a song, and all's gonna be fine. You'll be with your goddess." He began singing, and old song about the wind, and she relaxed against him. When the song was over, he placed his head against hers.
"So much time got stolen from us," he said. "I'd have liked to have known you better. Who knows where that would've taken us. I like t'think we could've shared somethin', at least fleeting but memorable."
"My goddess..." She whispered against him. He brought her head to his chest.
With a sudden moment of violence the deed was done. Her neck snapped, and she went limp.
Dogberry just sat there for a while, holding her, staring out into the forest.

Hmmm...there's a possible list.
(Anyone that it applies too) Lili could turn down the wrong admirer and they get the idea 'If I can't have you, no one will!'. Very unlikely but still!
(Enemies of C'kayah) Very much aware her future husband has less then legal dealings with various people in the underworld and beyond (as well as pokes his nose around where it some times shouldn't be!), it has occurred to Lili more then once that someone could get angry or vengeful and take it out on her. Could be a dramatic and tragic demise!
(Possible associates and the Society) While it hasn't been delved into for Lili story wise just yet, she has the chance to go insane later down the line. Perhaps not permanently, but enough to where if it happened some people may feel it's best to put her out of her misery.

A deal gone bad. There's a line from Neuromancer that describes how C normally operates: "He knew that at some point he'd started to play a game with himself, a very ancient one that has no name, a final solitaire. He no longer carried a weapon, no longer took the basic precautions. He ran the fastest, loosest deals on the street, and he had a reputation for being able to get whatever you wanted." He doesn't have a deathwish, and he's more careful these days, but he still tends to run fast and loose.

RE: Who Killed You?! - (Prompt) - cuideag - 09-21-2014
I... am having a heck of a time working up who might kill Jajara. She honestly has basically  no enemies whatsoever - there was one character who she did not like for a time but they sort of made up? And he doesn't seem the violent type. So in her case, it might be a matter of dying for someone rather than being killed by someone, and THAT list is a lot easier to imagine as she might have something of a savior complex that was made even worse by the death of someone very dear to her nary a year or so ago.
Delial, on the other hand, has a way of getting on the bad side of a lot of people.
Roen Deneith: It's almost happened ... twice? now. Delial almost expects it as she believes very much in cycles so either Roen or her brother Gharen being the one who finally puts her down is a fate she has contemplated often.
Gharen Wolfsong: See above! Though somehow this seems a little less likely than his sister, Roen.
Raelisanne Banurein: She has not heard much from this woman in a while and it worries her. The Empire does not forgive slights nor treachery and in leaving this woman's service, Delial may have branded herself a traitor.
Edgar Gandervalt: While she doesn't see him as much of a threat (more bark than bite in her mind), he has made a very open threat. Like with Gharen and Roen, she ended his parents, and so it would only be fitting that he kills her - and he might just be emotionally unstable enough to actually do it.
Natalie Mcbeef: She very much doubt that Natalie takes her seriously... Â but what does Natalie take seriously? Delial loathes this woman and would not shed a tear if she were to be taken from the world, a feeling which may very well be reciprocated. Perfect enemies, put together... What could possibly go wrong?
Askier Mergrey: Bitter, bitter enemies... maybe? Probably. They discovered that they could not kill one another directly, but both of these little monsters love to scheme and make messes of other peoples' lives. Delial would be INCREDIBLY embarrassed if he were the one to kill her but, well, stranger things have happened.
Qaeli Varily: She has no reason to doubt that this brash woman would kill her if she so much looked at either Roen or Gharen the wrong way. It's always the white haired ones that given her the most trouble, it would seem.
