If anyone were to begin such a campaign, any sane person would consider us comprimised and keep us well away from their plans.Īs for the possibility for Kryta going rogue… well, sometimes you have to sacrifice long term liberates for short term gains. It’s pretty clear at this point that our character would likely fight against any kill-em-all campaign, especially since we currently participate in powerful multi-racial groups like the Pact, DE and DW. The 'reveal our secrets and die' part is straightforward enough, but there's also a point where Anise mentions that part of our job description is "not working against Kryta." Does the Oath bind us to that, too? What counts as working against Kryta, and who gets to decide? If it means not making war against hapless villagers, that's easy for non-charr, but does it include not opposing the Queen's agendas, whatever those may be? These are important points to clear up, but Anise doesn't offer any clarification, and our character doesn't ask for it. Our character rushed into the thing without fully understanding what it is they were swearing. At the end of the day, it's supernaturally binding you to a (probably foreign) spy service, and that inherently carries the risk of shadiness.
Arguments can and have been made about whether those concerns are valid, but when you get right down to it, the norn were said in early documents not to trust Jennah (although that's never been played into in-game), the asura think the Krytan government is a primitive mess, the charr have obvious reasons to object, human street rats were close friends with an anarchist, and any player character might have reservations over how Jennah/Anise are perceived to have manipulated Logan/Canach/Kasmeer. There are many reasons, for the character and for the player, not to trust Jennah, Anise, the Shining Blade, or Kryta. If the Blood Imperator does go rogue to continue the war- something quite likely, from all we know of the man- or if in the distant future, once the dragons are dealt with, all the legions decide to go into expansion mode again, the Oath might compromise one of their foremost heroes. A ceasefire is in place, but the truce talks were still in progress last we heard, let alone an actual treaty. The Queen's interests might be cooperation (not unification), but her successor might take a different tack, and charr players, particularly Blood Legion, have a loyalty to an organization that's technically still at war with Kryta. I think there are three big sticking points: Why does everyone see this oath as a bad thing? Based on what we know, all we've done is made friends with the human special forces (which is something I don't think Jory/Kas can provide). Said:The Shining Blade act in the interests of the Queen, and the interests of the Queen requires the unification of the races.
