Scenario:

There is one attacker and one defender. In the edge battle they both play fate cards. Lets say the first fate card to be resolved kills the other players character leaving him without characters in the battle. Does the characterless player still carry out the fate card that had already been laid down and turned over despite the fact that his character is destroyed?

Yes. (adding text because too short)

I also agree yes, but let's give a reason.

The ony thing that is restricted by having units participating in the engagement is placing cards into the edge stack. Once the edge stack is created all the units could go away and the fate cards would continue resolving.
