Free will is something that the seneschal wants you to have. It is required for the job(to help bring balance and other dumb crap to the world- haha) You could freely kill yourself five minutes in, though I doubt that is what savan had in mind.

You have fought to live from the start of the game(the main reason you chased the dragon- he has your heart) but then decide to kill yourself 5 minutes into your new job(out of boredom) that is not a good way to break the chain(which wasn't your goal in the first place) Capcom got a little lazy at the end(going for a wow factor- in an attempt to make you think outside the box) They don't want you to be seneschal(or they would have given us the godly powers) -- Paradox (great game but the story is unfinished or could be expanded on more)

These are my opinions- take take them as 100% truth- though feel free to borrow the pretty mental pictures I have painted for you =D
