I'm not convinced. I don't believe she'd want to subject herself to being sworn. lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 01/12/2009 09:54:40 PM
First, actually being BOUND by the oaths would be absolutely unacceptable to her.

Second, they half a person's lifetime. Which might not matter to her if she's truly been granted immortality, but we don't actually know the nature of the promised immortality, so it might still be a factor.

True, there is a reasonably good chance that she could get her hands on the oaths and unswear them - but it's far from certain. I don't think she'd risk it.

Not just that, but in the AoL, the Oath Rod was used to "bind criminals". *NM* Lord Haart - 02/12/2009 05:41:35 AM 335 Views

Well, that's just one oath. The other two are not as easy to circumvent. BlackAdder - 02/12/2009 01:19:53 AM 825 Views
But given free will, they can interpret "danger" to mean "clear and present" or "potential danger" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/12/2009 04:54:26 PM 671 Views
Last defense of life cannot mean potential danger. *NM* fionwe1987 - 02/12/2009 05:51:27 PM 281 Views
Yes it can. It all depends on interpretation. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/12/2009 12:22:47 AM 651 Views
