Goodreads asked M.C. Planck:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

M.C. Planck Perion and Melicent, from James Branch Cabell's "Domnei." They are even more tragic than Jack Vance's Suldrun and Aillas from "Lyonesse," which is really saying something.

As Joseph Campbell noted, true love is inevitably tragic.
