Xath runs out of the door where the circle had been meeting and spots Archonus ahead of her. She tries to catch up, shouting ahead "Archonus, please wait!"
Archonus does not turn to face Xath. "How could you even ask that? I have fought and i have bled and i have died in their honor. I have never, nor will i ever betray them or you. Things are just....more complicated now."
Archonus sighs.
"When we all swore our lives to each other i never thought i'd find happiness. The Circle was my life but now i am about to have a child and she will become my life. The others don't understand and i don't expect them to."
Under his breath Archon whispers,
"...Arfin would."

"And things will always be complicated."
He turns to face her finally.
"Do not fear my love, my loyalties may be many, but i remain loyal to all still the same. To queen, to country, to circle, to cause and to you. I just have one more on the way."

After a few moments of quiet sobbing, she begins to speak again. "Can you not tell them that? They fear that you have betrayed the cause in favor of one life."
If the kid and the circle are EVEN, the oath has maybe not been broken. But if the kid really does have unconditional priority, then the oath is broken.

That will work.

((OOC - I do think that the Oath breaking is a really cool story point... and... just felt the need to share how cool that is in the movie in my head))
"You tell them. You are better with words then I am. I will see later this evening."
OOC, I still don't have any real indication that the child is any different in priority than she was when this problem started. Can someone give me a signal here? Lay it out for me?

ooc- i don't think an oath breaking Archonus would be cool, but if that's what you guys want, whatever. It was never his or my intention. It's been an emotional day for Archonus. First you bring in the first woman he ever loved as the woman he currently loves stands in the same room, then you tell him to his face that his child is just another expendable, and now you're acusing him of betraying the cause and the circle.
Give the guy a second to breath the dude's got a lot on his plate.

As of now he holds all of his loyalties as equal. IF and i'm only saying "IF", he has to choose later on down the road between his child's life or the Circle's then that will be a most interesting day, because you can count on him choosing his child.

I don't think that they're accusing you - the oathbreaking would just *happen* if the right conditions were met.
Anyway, keep it going. Good stuff.

If you know this to be certain, then Archon does too. The Oath would be broken.
Does that make sense?
