Conflicting Loyalty	comment	Many people have more than one thing they consider worthy of Undying Loyalty: religion, country, family and friends, promises, perhaps a cause or whatever the author imagines. If a character is lucky, these differing claims can actually reinforce one another. But what happens if they conflict? Then we have Conflicting Loyalty. Whichever the character chooses, he may regard it as Dirty Business. Many characters try (and may or may not succeed) to Take a Third Option. If the character can use a technicality, loophole, metaphorical truth, or harmless lie to resolve the dilemma in a way that benefits (or at least avoids harm to) both sides, expect this to usually be a moral act from a moral character, regardless of whether or not it succeeds. Related to Sadistic Choice. Compare Rebellious Rebel, Anti-Mutiny. Sometimes invokes Honor Before Reason. Super-Trope to Even Mooks Have Loved Ones and To Be Lawful or Good. May be caused by Double Consciousness. Members of one or both sides may regard the person in question as a Category Traitor.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_19948e9a	comment	A major part of the second-season arc of The Story of Saiunkoku centers around Ran Shuuei being caught in a conflict of loyalty — between his loyalty to his Emperor (who has shown him absolute trust) and his Big Screwed Up Clan, the Rans, who dislike the emperor and only care about their own people and lands. Getting it resolved takes a lot of work (and, ultimately, intentionally getting himself disowned so that he can freely swear his unconditional loyalty to Ryuuki).

Conflicting Loyalty / int_1a64c756	comment	Athrun has this big time in Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny. On the one hand, Durandal sweet-talked him into rejoining ZAFT to protect his former nation PLANTs from EA attack. He also has loyalty to the crew of the Minerva as fellow soldiers who have tried to save a world that hates them. On the other hand, his adopted nation Orb was effectively blackmailed into joining the EA, and his best friend and his ex-fiancees were forced to flee with the Archangel. This all comes to a head when Orb is ordered to send a fleet out to fight ZAFT, and Athrun's ship the Minerva is sent out to fight it, and the Archangel ends up intervening against both ZAFT and the EA to protect the Orb fleet. Cue ten episodes of Athrun wrestling with his loyalties until he finally jumps ship (again) and joins Orb. He never even really gets to totally make the choice. After learning of this Durandal decides he doesn't need someone that isn't completely loyal to him and sends soldiers after Athrun branding him a traitor to Zaft before he really did anything and forcing him to flee back to Orb.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_1aacbbc9	comment	The entire world of Dragon Age is designed to create lots of conflicts of interest, which are the main reason for many of the plotlines. In Dragon Age II, this trope seems to be the primary theme of the whole story. Ser Thrask is a Templar, whose job it is to monitor mages and prevent them from falling to demons. But he also hates the inhumane treatment many mages see from other Templars. Depending on the player's choices, Aveline's duties as member of the city guard are sometimes at odds with Hawke's activities. Hawke can be a good friend to whom Aveline owes her life, but they can also be just a few degrees shy of a full-fledged criminal. Isabela asks Hawke to help her find an "artifact" that she was supposed to transport to a crime boss so he calls off the assassins waiting for her in her homeland, while at the same time Hawke is trying to negotiate with the Qunari army to leave the city without causing trouble before rioters start a fight with them. What Isabela neglects to tell Hawke is the artifact is a holy relic she stole from the Qunari and the army has been in the city causing problems for four years, because they are looking for her and the relic. This soon leads to a massive battle that destroys half the city. Anders had always had problems with his loyalties, but at the end of the game, his conviction that the mages can only be safe if the Templar order is destroyed leads him to ignore Hawke's attempts to find a diplomatic solution by killing the Grand Cleric, who had always been the only person who could stop both sides from attacking each other. He achieves this by blowing up the entire temple with a magic bomb. As a Keeper, Merrill regards it as her duty to restore ancient elven magic, even if the rest of her clan thinks it is madness to get help from demons to repair a cursed magic artifact. As tensions between the mages and Templars mount, Varric is fully aware that he will have problems with this, though in his case his loyalty is to individual people rather than overarching principles. Summed up perfectly in the following conversation: Cullen, as second-in-command to the increasingly paranoid Knight-Commander Meredith, ultimately has to choose To Be Lawful or Good. Despite making what he knows is the right choice, it continues to have psychological problems for him in the next game. The Dragon Age: Inquisition DLC Jaws of Hakkon poses this problem for Thane Sun-Hair of Stone-Bear Hold. She very much wants to assist the Inquisition in stopping the eponymous Jaws of Hakkon, which is another Avvar hold whose members keep attacking the Inquisition soldiers (and who are clearly up to something big and problematic). However, her hold has a peace agreement with the Hakkonites, and if she went back on that, other holds would see hers as being filled with oathbreakers. She therefore tasks the Inquisitor with finding her a really good reason for her to break the peace agreement without damaging her hold's reputation. They do, when it's revealed that the Hakkonites kidnapped Stone-Bear Hold's sacred animal.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_1b8faf92	comment	Nibelungenlied: Conflicts of loyalty play a huge part. To point out the more important ones: In the matter of the murder of Siegfried, Gunther is torn between his obligation to protect the honour of his wife Brunhilde and those towards his vassal and brother-in-law Siegfried. Later, after the deed is done, Gunther and his brothers are torn between their feudal obligation to protect their vassal Hagen and their fraternal loyalty towards their sister Kriemhild; they opt for Hagen. RÃ¼diger of Bechlarn is visibly torn between the oaths he swore to his queen Kriemhild and to the Burgundians, one of whom is betrothed to RÃ¼diger's daughter. Kriemhild has to choose between her sisterly affections to her brothers (especially Giselher, the youngest) and to her loyalty to her dead husband Siegfried. She eventually opts for the latter, allowing Gernot and Giselher to die in battle and ordering Gunther to be executed. This is an interesting switch from earlier versions of the story (preserved e. g. in the Icelandic Atli-saga), she killed her second husband Atli (Etzel) in order to avenge her dead brothers.

While he has no qualms with his orders to bring Roxas back, he starts to grow disgruntled with his superiors when he is tasked to eliminate Roxas. He eventually screws over the Organization, and starts working independently, leading to a Tear Jerker when he dies at Sora's side, lamenting the fact that he never got to revive Roxas. Fortunately, by the events of Kingdom Hearts III, Roxas is revived by Sora and Vexen, and reunites with Axel.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_2192aeb3	comment	Fire Emblem: This is often a recurring theme in the series; usually it's an enemy general struggling between his conscience and their loyalty to the nation they serve. Characters who choose their nation are called Camus archetypes by the fans, while characters who choose their conscience are called Lorenz archetypes. Ishtar in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War is torn between her love for her family and the big bad, the reincarnation of the evil god, and what's right. She chooses to basically suicide on your army. You also get to experience this decision for yourself in Fire Emblem Fates, where you must choose whether to side with the homeland you were born in or the country that raised you. You may also Take a Third Option. You get hit with this in Fire Emblem: Three Houses if you're a Black Eagle. Chapter 11 reveals Edelgard is the Flame Emperor who has been orchestrating attacks on the Church throughout Part 1; if you accompanied her to her coronation in Enbarr, you must choose whether to side with the student you've been teaching for the better part of a year or the Church who has been signing your paychecks for the same amount of time. If you didn't accompany her for whatever reason, you are automatically forced to side with the Church.

However, her hold has a peace agreement with the Hakkonites, and if she went back on that, other holds would see hers as being filled with oathbreakers. She therefore tasks the Inquisitor with finding her a really good reason for her to break the peace agreement without damaging her hold's reputation. They do, when it's revealed that the Hakkonites kidnapped Stone-Bear Hold's sacred animal.

It causes numerous major mistakes to be made, and more than one case of a Villainous BSoD. Reiner has it the worst, unable to reconcile his conflicting loyalties leads to Sanity Slippage and identity issues. Later in the series, Mikasa comes under suspicion while the Alliance plans to fight Eren and his genocidal ambitions. Although Mikasa consistently stood with the Scouts even as Eren grew detached, they are also long-time friends and adoptive siblings, with Mikasaâ€™s crush on Eren being apparent to everyone. Even after Eren declares that he always hated her, she still insists on stopping him without killing him, causing doubt that she would be able to do so if push came to shove. This is compounded by Erenâ€™s claim that Mikasa, as a member of the genetically-engineered Ackermann family, is bonded to him as a â€œhostâ€� and thus is little more than his slave. Because of all this, although Mikasa is one of the Allianceâ€™s best fighters, her comrades are reluctant to place their trust in her as they prepare to fight Eren.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_3f734c20	comment	Dark Matter (2015): Crewmember Six is hit with this bigtime in the last few episodes of Season 1. Aside from Five, the Mysterious Waif, the Raza crew are all criminal mercenaries with extensive rapsheets including everything from piracy to mass murder, but a mindwipe at the start of the series while they were in stasis for a long journey to their next target caused them all to lose their memories. Hence adopting numbers as names and rejecting their old ones after learning what kind of people they were. During "Episode 8", Six learns offscreen from a colleague that he actually wasn't a criminal at all, but an undercover cop with a mission to sabotage the Raza and deliver the crew to justice. Which their original selves arguably would have richly deserved. But now, thanks to the mindwipe, he genuinely thinks of them all as friends/Family of Choice, knows they're trying to be better people, and is very reluctant to fulfill his original mission. Finally in "Episode 13", the season finale, Six does incapacitate the rest of the crew and bring them into custody after their heist of what turned out to be a white hole bomb unintendedly led to the destruction of an inhabited planet a few episodes ago, deciding that they're too dangerous to go free. In the Season 2 premiere "Welcome to Your New Home", he begins to have doubts after learning the Galactic Authority had known in advance about the bombing of a space station by terrorists in one of his previous undercover missions but had wanted it to happen for propaganda purposes, and in the next episode "Kill Them All", he finally helps the crew escape prison after learning that One has been whacked and the rest of them are surely next.

All of his existence, he has been loyal to the orders sent by God through the higher ranks of the angels down to him. However, of late the orders have been increasingly strange and apparently contrary to God's wishes, and he finds himself slowly persuaded by Dean's insistence in the need to protect human life. Should he obey the higher angels, or listen to Dean and do what he was always taught God wanted? Near the end, he tries to discuss something with the angels, and is punished so badly he becomes totally loyal to them again. Until the finale, at least, when Dean finally gives him the impetus to Fall for good.

After witnessing many people suffering after the Gohma's recent attack, Yasha sided with Deus. It got worse for Yasha since his sister Durga (Asura's wife and Mithra's mother) was also killed though it's unclear whether Deus ordered it or Sergei did it on his own just to anger Asura. 12,000 years later, Yasha has to make the choice again when Asura returns, hell-bent on saving Mithra. He initially remains loyal to Deus since he still believes stopping the Gohma is more important than anything. Ultimately, Yasha turns against Deus after battling Wrath Asura helps Yasha realize that if there's even the slightest chance to stop the Gohma without resorting to Deus' horrific plan, then he has to take it.

In the end, she sides with Lennox, although there's a bit of Double Agent confusion before that's clear.

In Stormblood, Ala Mhigo is freed, which makes Raubahn happy since his homeland can now start anew. As much as he wants to return to his homeland, he feels that he has to stay behind in Ul'dah to serve and protect Nanamo like he had sworn to do. Nanamo can sense Raubahn's inner turmoil and she makes the decision for him by effectively firing him from his role, which would allow him to stay in Ala Mhigo. Vtra in the Endwalker story wants to find his sister who had sealed a void gate behind her so that the voidsent couldn't invade, but he refuses to do so because he feels his duty as ruler of Radz-at-Han is more important and he can't leave his people behind.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_49ad83ee	comment	A relatively minor example happens in World of Warcraft in patch 4.1 Rise of the Zandalari. Following the Cataclysm, the previously player friendly Zandalari trolls have decided that they will rebuild the troll civilization at any costs, to which end they start making alliances with all the various barbaric troll tribes scattered throughout Azeroth, including the Horde aligned Darkspear Trolls, whose leader refuses the offer in a very much awesome manner: One expansion later (in the tie-in book Vol'jin: Shadows of the Horde), Vol'jin's loyalty to the Horde is considerably weakened. The former Warchief, Thrall, had appointed an unfit replacement (even the replacement himself thought so), Garrosh, who had always been a reckless warmonger compared to his predecessor's calm, moderate personality. As the months pass, Garrosh becomes more and more unhinged, turning into a dictator with fewer and fewer qualms about executing noncombatants or even fellow Horde members. Thrall's response to this is... nonexistent; nothing is done about it. Vol'jin and Garrosh had never liked each other, and following Garrosh simply attempting to have Vol'jin killed in secret, Vol'jin is again approached by the Zandalari. The troll attempting to recruit him this time is doing so without direct orders to do so, because she admired the strength it took to defy the Zandalari last time, and she truly believes he's getting a raw deal from the Horde these days. She holds his friends hostage in order to make him listen to her pitch, but admits she's willing to defy orders and let them go if it helps sway him. With his loyalty to the Horde at its absolute lowest, Vol'jin is actually conflicted, and spends a long time wondering if taking the Darkspear and joining the Zandalari would be the right thing to do. Of course, when she brings him to her superiors and they spend the entire meeting treating him with scorn, he makes his mind up in a hurry and just engineers a midnight breakout instead. And in a straight subversion, despite the fact we would expect the mantid to be absolutely loyal to their Hive Queen by virtue of being a race of Bee People, the Klaxxi's main goal is to keep in check the Mantid Empress in the case she ever becomes a threat to the mantid civilization. In the game, the current Mantid Empress has become corrupted by the Sha of Fear, and has engaged in all sorts of morally questionable activities due to it, so it's of no surprise that the Klaxxi want her dead. A better example comes from the backstory of one of the Paragons, whom is noted to not be the first time he has to fight a rogue Empress, altough that particular situation seems to have been much greyer (by human standards, not mantid), he still seems to not have had much of a problem doing what had to be done:

She chooses the ministry, at what would have been the expense of Cho and a lot of other student's careers seeing as they would have all been expelled and unable to complete their NEWT exams, and for many of them their OWL exams as well if not for Dumbledore's intervention. It's implied that either she did not take Voldemort's return seriously or she believed the Ministry propaganda about him not being back, since she went willingly on her own to expose the DA to Umbridge. In her defence, Marietta has no actual loyalty to the Ministry herself- it's her mother who is employed there and she's presumably concerned about the possible effect on her career if her daughter was caught working against it.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_64776522	comment	In Yggdra Union, Nessiah's first prerogative may be to ensure the safety and growth of the Gran Centurio, but he's also implied to care fairly deeply for the Imperial Army. When forced to choose between protecting the Imperial Army by killing the player's army, thus ensuring that the sword's current wielder will die, or joining up with the player to rescue Yggdra and oversee the Gran Centurio's growth personally, he decides to Take a Third Option and kills himself to let things play out as naturally as possible. (Which isn't as extreme as it sounds, because Nessiah's pretty nonchalant about dying for obvious reasons.) This is probably also done to preserve the balance of the game, but Nessiah having conflicted loyalties is the most reasonable explanation in-plot.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_6673d40b	comment	Equestria Girls: Friendship Souls: When Celestia and Luna end up being tried as traitors, Soul Society is sent into an uproar as Soul Reapers from the lowest rank to even the other Captains have to decide whether to stand by the law of Central 46 or with the condemned Captains, both of which having records of being among the greatest members of their organization. Celestia's entire 13th Division pretty much gathers together in preparation to fight the 11th Division, and Luna's 2nd Division is noted to be split right down the middle in their loyalty. Zecora experiences this during the trial. Her Zanpakuto is said to be impossible to fool, so despite knowing that Celestia and Luna would never betray Soul Society, she still casts the deciding vote against them. Though considering she was really Chrysalis at the time, this was subverted since she was just playing a role and fully in on Starlight Glimmer's scheme. When evidence mounts that the "treason" has been a bunch of hogwash and nothing more than manipulation, both Blueblood and Troubleshoes falter, but their loyalty to Platinum (the only Captain who was completely in on Starlight's scheme) and Soul Society's laws respectively and lack of hard evidence lead them to siding with Hurricane (who himself honestly couldn't have cared if Celestia and Luna really were traitors and saw this as an opportunity to get Soul Society back on the offensive in the spirit war) against Sweet Cider, Cheese Sandwich, Daring Do, and Amore.

He's already defying the trope by the time his situation is made explicit; one group was consistently making use of Screw the Rules, I Have Connections! while the other was being consistently hard-working and loyal to Sylvester, making choosing a side relatively easy. Or so it first seems. The faction associated with the realtives he turns his back on also contained the most people who supported his rule, and many of those people are starting to like the idea of seeing his older sister in his seat. The faction associated with the relatives Sylvester sided with, meanwhile, is overall reluctant to support him until he makes clearer political moves in their favor, and many of those that the faction's members have in mind are some Sylvester has no plans to make.

Mai has to choose between her love of Zuko and her fear of Azula in "Boiling Rock," and chooses her love of Zuko. When Azula goes to kill her for this, Ty Lee makes a quick choice between her friendship-based love of Mai and her fear of Azula, and she also chooses the love. Either Azula isn't really that scary (which, let's be honest, isn't completely true), or both of her friends are much more loyal (to other people) than Azula previously thought. Zuko goes through this throughout the entire third season. He's finally got everything he's ever wanted, but he's betrayed the only family who cared for him. Team Avatar, his enemies, care more for him then his father and sister do. And then we find out that his grandfathers are not just Fire Lord Sozin but also Avatar Roku, splitting him even further. He finally chooses Team Avatar and his uncle - a decision which ultimately pays off in spectacular style.

He is ordered by his mother, the high priestess of Menzoberanzan, to accompany his aunt Quenthel on her quest and follow her orders without question. However, when Quenthel starts to eat herself up with doubt and loses her faith in the Spider Goddess, he is conflicted between his loyalty and his belief that Asskicking Leads to Leadership, which is the foundation for their race's entire society. Danifae however, who as a slave is nominally the groups lowest ranking member, proves herself to be a Manipulative Bitch who plays the game of lying, betraying, and instilling fear like no-one else. When Jegrred finally switches his loyalty, Quenthel helplessly resigns and doesn't try to stop them, but when she gets all her powers back, she sacrifices him for punishment.

He finds it quite easy to chose once he learns what his people are doing. He doesn't hate them or wishes them any harm, but that doesn't mean he is going to let them get away with their blatant disregard for Justice. Worf also has to choose between his loyalty to Starfleet or his loyalty to his people in "The Way of the Warrior." Unlike the previous time where he chose the Empire over the Federation, this time he remains loyal to the Federation on the grounds that if he joined Gowron in the invasion of Cardassia he would be going back on his word to the Federation. Later Garak and Damar are faced with similar choices. Very early in the series, after the episode opens with Bashir and Garak discussing literature and Garak stating he would choose loyalty to the state every time over his personal feelings, later in the same episode he does actually face that choice (he's ordered to kill some dissidents who are under orders of execution by the Cardassian government, but which he personally feels is the wrong decision for the government to have made). Eventually, he chooses his feelings over the state. His decision is helped by the Gul who is representing the government making the Too Dumb to Live decision to try Bullying a Dragon; Garak implies afterward that this convinced him these dissidents were actually the better choice for Cardassia in the long run.

In the process, she grows to like both the Earth and the Crystal Gems, but she never loses her loyalty to Homeworld or her leader, Yellow Diamond. This results in Peridot trying to convince Yellow Diamond to terminate the Cluster and spare the Earth without exposing the existence of the Crystal Gems. When Yellow Diamond fails to be swayed by the objective logic Peridot prizes and reveals that no potential benefit outweighs her desire to see Earth gone, Peridot's conflict resolves itself in the form of her calling Yellow Diamond a clod, Peridot's trademark insult.

Fortunately, he manages to Take a Third Option by working with Superman. During the New Krypton story arc, Supergirl was torn between loyalty to her cousin and her adopted planet and loyalty to her mother Allura -who hated and blamed humanity for her husband's death- and her Kryptonian kin. She tries to protect everyone, but eventually both sides go to war. In The Untold Story of Argo City, Kara feels divided between her birth parents who loved her and raised her until she was fifteen, when they were forcefully separated from her... and between her adoptive parents who took her in when nobody else did and raised her since she was sixteen.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_90c73dda	comment	Animorphs: Ax's entire character arc is built on this. He is an aristh, the Andalite equivalent of a cadet, and thus the only one of the Animorphs to have prior affiliations. Further, his culture places a very high value on loyalty and service, meaning that even when he learns the Andalite military is doing things that aren't entirely kosher, he is still obliged to support them. And yet, he comes to find himself caring for his human friends, who are at first simple allies of expedience but slowly grow into true companions. This is the main reason why David is referred to in-series as the Sixth Ranger rather than Ax - almost every book Ax has in the 54-book run is devoted to this conflict in some way, and it's not until he's given an ultimatum in the second-to-last book that he finally commits himself fully to the Animorphs.

Events really start unravelling around the topic of loyalty to an individual versus loyalty to a cause, or when loyalty to "king and country" ends up as two conflicting loyalties. The first event to really drive this home is when Durand - an unconditionally loyal secret agent - is ordered by his king to kill his friends to protect a state secret. This screws him up enough to nearly get him killed. In the end, he insists on protecting his friends while still trying to have it both ways. A villain later tries to persuade Durand to join him by calling him out on it, asking why Durand would serve a king who would give him such an order. Even then, Durand doesn't give in.

He spends the two-parter torn between his loyalty to Kirk and his loyalty to Pike — committing mutiny against the former to help the latter. In "Amok Time", Captain Kirk must choose between obeying Starfleet orders and going to Altair VI or taking Spock to Vulcan to save his life, which could result in Kirk being court-martialed.

Hagen first tries to talk Gunther out of his plan and advises him to accept a compromise; when Gunther in turn accuses him of cowardice, Hagen refuses all orders and stands by as his companions fight with Walther. Only after Walther has killed eleven Frankish champions including Hagen's own nephew Patavrid, Gunther apologizes and implores Hagen that the Franks will never recover from the shame if they let Walther get away unpunished. With the new state of affairs, Hagen is concerned that his own honor as a warrior could be compromised if he continues to do nothing, and finally agrees to fight Walther.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_9d47a2a2	comment	This is a common theme in A Song of Ice and Fire: Throughout the story, Ned always chooses Honor Before Reason, every time, no matter how much the other choice would help him. But at the end of the first book, he must choose between his honor and his family, the one thing that matters to him more. He finally decides against honor. It doesn't help. In order to gain the political support of the Freys, Robb vows to marry a daughter from the Frey family. However, when he sleeps with a girl while he is pledged to the Frey daughter, he must choose to either keep his vow to marry the Frey daughter or protect the honor of the girl. He chooses to protect the girl's honor and breaks his oath to the Freys — resulting in far-reaching consequences. Jaime Lannister is known across Westeros as the Kingslayer for killing the king he swore to protect. He provides the page quote when he points out that the oaths about honoring your family and honoring your King are forced to be helplessly contradictory sooner or later. But once the readers get to know him, they learn that Jaime can actually be very loyal, if his loyalty is earned (or if you sleep with him enough). When he killed the king, he chose between his duty to his king and to his father and family. Also, the fact that choosing his family meant saving thousands of innocent lives is what tipped the balance for him. He also debates with a fellow Kingsguard whether their vow to protect the royal family extends to protecting the Queen from the King. Notably, the reason that Jaime refused to explain his actions is because this would reveal the true level of the Mad King's sins. Protecting the King's secrets is the only oath Jaime can keep that doesn't conflict with any other. Brienne's level of Honor Before Reason would confound even the Starks. She takes quite a number of vows, and it's always for a good cause. Protect Renly. Protect Lady Catelyn. Protect Jaime. Bring Sansa home. Later, she is implied to take another vow: to kill Jaime. Not surprisingly, a few of her vows start to conflict after a while. Jon Snow gets this a few times. At first, it's always between the Watch and something else: his family he loves, the girl he loves, his home, his friends. In the first book, he has a conversation with Maester Aemon about this conflict, who once faced the very same situation Jon does. Later, once he becomes Lord Commander, it's between his commitment not to interfere in the affairs of the realm and his desire to protect innocents and right wrongs. Theon gets trapped between his adopted brother and his birth family. Stannis notes this early, describing the difficulty in choosing to side with his brother in the rebellion against the rightful king.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones: A recurring theme for Jaime Lannister all through the series: The HBO adaptation changes the page quote slightly, making the focus on Jaime's conflicting loyalties even sharper. If you've sworn to defend both the king and the innocent, what do you do when said king kills innocent people? As he revealed to Brienne, Jaime broke his oath and killed the Mad King when he decided to explode huge quantities of wildfire hidden beneath King's Landing. This action saved 500,000 lives but came at the price of his honor and universal contempt for soiling his office. He faces this dilemma again in Season 4 on his return to King's Landing when he must choose between his brother and the rest of his family when Joffrey dies and Tyrion is arrested and Sansa is suspected and also between protecting Sansa - an oath he swore to Catelyn Stark, which is complicated by her death and a changed political landscape - and pleasing Cersei. Jaime had also made the decision to honour his Kingsguard vows as best as possible, but this is no easy task. He eventually decides to go against his family in secret, giving Brienne help to rescue Sansa, and working with Varys to rescue Tyrion. Ned Stark consistently chooses Honor Before Reason no matter the cost until he must choose between his honour and his other core value: his family. Jon Snow is constantly caught between his duty to Night's Watch and family, justice, and love. First, he wants to go to war beside his family, but he doesn't want to leave the Watch after swearing to serve, then the needs of the Watch require he overlook the crimes of Craster, then he falls in love with a Wildling. He is also conflicted between the Watch's purpose and protecting the soft and unreliable Sam. Jon's very conflicted. Theon Greyjoy gets caught between the Starks who held him hostage but treat him somewhat kindly and the Greyjoys who despise him as a symbol of weakness and failure. Since he finds he cannot fully be a Stark, he tries to be a Greyjoy, only to realize too late that he chose wrong. In one of the Histories and Lore segments, Stannis describes the choice between his lawful king and his elder brother as the hardest choice he ever made. Since he is both of these to Renly, he views Renly's refusal to support him as doubly treacherous. Walder Frey parleys the question of loyalty to the king vs. loyalty to his lord into an advantageous deal with Robb Stark in "Baelor". After the invasion of Westeros doesn't go quite as planned, Daenerys accuses Tyrion of deliberately pulling his punches because he doesn't want to kill his family. The truth is more complicated. Tyrion wants Jaime to live (being the only Lannister left who ever actually loved Tyrion), but he doesn't give a damn about Cersei, who would kill him on the spot. However, in the Season 7 finale Cersei doesn't have him killed, and he instinctively gives her a goblet of wine to share.

The previous routes also involved this conflict, but the third route is where it finally comes to a head. No matter how hard he tries, he cannot have both.

She picks the latter, and Discord uses this as an excuse to declare the game over because someone cheated. Not that it mattered anyway, as regardless of which choice she made, she'd play into his hand by betraying something she cares about and going against her Element Of Harmony which was Discord's intention. Rainbow Falls has a decidedly less sadistic version where Rainbow Dash is forced to choose between her loyalty to her friends and the Ponyville Team (which, to not mince words, sucks), and her loyalty to the Wonderbolts and their team. This turns out to be her Secret Test of Character which in turn bestows her the Loyalty key to the Tree of Harmony chest. Another one that counts is Sugar Belle in the big finale episode. The pony races fall for Queen Chrysalis spreading rumors and hate and causing the pony races to hole up with their own kind. In Ponyville, we see unicorn Sugar Belle choosing her new husband Big Mac and his family, who are earth ponies, rather than holing up with the rest of the unicorns in Canterlot.

Gareth clearly states that it's not because of any objection to torture, as Madalena guesses, but because Gareth is loyal to Richard, not Madalena. After Madalena leaves however, Gareth begins angrily debating with himself about the whole thing, because while he's loyal to Richard he doesn't respect Richard. Gareth has known Richard since the two men were in their teens, and he knows better than anyone that Richard is a bumbling Manchild. He does respect Madalena's strength (and since he eventually falls in love with her in Season 2, perhaps there are already seeds of that growing), but she's a newcomer in his life and he hasn't developed any loyalty to her yet.

When Wanda begins "decrypting" people (think a creepy form of resurrection) using the divine Arkenpliers, this happens a lot. The decrypted are automatically loyal to her, but retain all their old memories. While they are compelled to serve her above all else, this can cause serious friction with their old Loyalty. Royals especially have trouble, since Wanda is part of a Side that has denied the Divine Right of Kings. Ossomer ends up turning back to his original Side over this. Lilith mentions that many of the decrypted archons still love Charlie, their old boss. Since he used the divine Arkendish to pop them, they were loyal to him in the same way that the decrypted are loyal to Wanda; the archons do serve her above all else, but they spend quite a bit of time whispering about what Charlie would have done differently. Lilith herself is both a subversion and a straight example; she has no Loyalty left for Charlie, which is why she is happy she is the one he managed to capture. Some of her decrypted sisters still loved him and would have begged to be let back into the fold, and he would have dissected them anyway. Later, Wanda does something very stupid by countermanding one of Parson's orders. When Parson asks Lilith what happened, Lilith thinks to herself that sometimes you don't know which way your Loyalty is going to fall until a choice actually appears in front of you. Then she tells Parson the truth, that it was Wanda's fault. Bonnie is another subversion. After she gets decrypted, she really hates her new Side, but not because she misses Charlie specifically. She just misses the organization he was able to bring to his Side. It certainly doesn't help that her new Ruler is an idiot, the entire leadership corp is a mess, and everyone keeps insisting that the most important unit is some low-level warlord who managed to get them into two impossible wars at the same time.

The main character, Jason, is a dutiful son who used to be a breadwinner to his family following his father's passing and vows to prioritize their well-beings above his, particularly his troubled younger brother, Joshua. However, when he found love in Lyric, he starts to feel torn between his family or his wish to be with Lyric. Upon learning Joshua has become insufferably unbearable, he eventually leaves his brother for good and chooses to be with Lyric.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_dfabfce5	comment	In Red Dead Redemption 2: Javier Escuella has this. While still blindly obedient to Dutch van der Linde, he's noticeably hesitant in drawing his gun on Arthur Morgan and John Marston, whereas the rest of Dutch's loyalists aimed at them without question. Dutch thinks this is happening to John. He is noticeably bitter and hostile to John Chapter 4 and onward when John is taking his role as a father and husband more seriously even though John continues to remain loyal to the gang. While others like Arthur and Hosea don't share these concerns, it's possible that Dutch sees John embracing his role as a family man as a threat to Dutch's power over John. It's worth noting that Dutch and John's relationship deteriorates the more John becomes a better husband and father.

Chapter 11 reveals Edelgard is the Flame Emperor who has been orchestrating attacks on the Church throughout Part 1; if you accompanied her to her coronation in Enbarr, you must choose whether to side with the student you've been teaching for the better part of a year or the Church who has been signing your paychecks for the same amount of time. If you didn't accompany her for whatever reason, you are automatically forced to side with the Church.

Conflicting Loyalty / int_e144ba19	comment	In Dragon Age II, this trope seems to be the primary theme of the whole story. Ser Thrask is a Templar, whose job it is to monitor mages and prevent them from falling to demons. But he also hates the inhumane treatment many mages see from other Templars. Depending on the player's choices, Aveline's duties as member of the city guard are sometimes at odds with Hawke's activities. Hawke can be a good friend to whom Aveline owes her life, but they can also be just a few degrees shy of a full-fledged criminal. Isabela asks Hawke to help her find an "artifact" that she was supposed to transport to a crime boss so he calls off the assassins waiting for her in her homeland, while at the same time Hawke is trying to negotiate with the Qunari army to leave the city without causing trouble before rioters start a fight with them. What Isabela neglects to tell Hawke is the artifact is a holy relic she stole from the Qunari and the army has been in the city causing problems for four years, because they are looking for her and the relic. This soon leads to a massive battle that destroys half the city. Anders had always had problems with his loyalties, but at the end of the game, his conviction that the mages can only be safe if the Templar order is destroyed leads him to ignore Hawke's attempts to find a diplomatic solution by killing the Grand Cleric, who had always been the only person who could stop both sides from attacking each other. He achieves this by blowing up the entire temple with a magic bomb. As a Keeper, Merrill regards it as her duty to restore ancient elven magic, even if the rest of her clan thinks it is madness to get help from demons to repair a cursed magic artifact. As tensions between the mages and Templars mount, Varric is fully aware that he will have problems with this, though in his case his loyalty is to individual people rather than overarching principles. Summed up perfectly in the following conversation: Cullen, as second-in-command to the increasingly paranoid Knight-Commander Meredith, ultimately has to choose To Be Lawful or Good. Despite making what he knows is the right choice, it continues to have psychological problems for him in the next game.

With Weather predicting an outstanding eucalyptus blossom display for the year's eucalyptus blossom festival, the village decides to hold an election for the queen of the festival. But as both Laura and Betty plan to enter the competition, Roobear is caught between promising to vote for his sister and wanting to vote for his would-be girlfriend. Luckily for Roobear, it becomes a moot point when the rules of the contest are changed to award the crown to whoever produces the most beautiful eucalyptus blossoms - which ends up being a joint award to literally every girl who enters the contest.

He also chose her over a calling he loved which may have been even harder. Also, in "War Stories", Mal admits that he was initially against Zoe's marriage to Wash, concerned that it would split loyalties amongst the crew. Strongly averted by Zoe in the same episode when given a choice between saving Mal or Wash from torture. She picks Wash because Mal can take the torture and Wash can't, while Wash's piloting skills will be needed for the team's Big Damn Heroes moment to rescue Mal.

Although he apparently suffers from Chronic Backstabbing Disorder and has no issues with being a Double Reverse Quadruple Agent when necessary, he's shown some capacity to be conflicted in which side to stick with: In Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, Axel's friendship with Roxas and Xion conflicts with his orders by the Organization to "let things run their natural course". Even his friendship with the pair suffers from this trope, as he comes to realize that only one of them can survive, and one of them has to perish to ensure the survival of the other. In Kingdom Hearts II, his friendship with Roxas is again the driving factor of his Conflicting Loyalty. While he has no qualms with his orders to bring Roxas back, he starts to grow disgruntled with his superiors when he is tasked to eliminate Roxas. He eventually screws over the Organization, and starts working independently, leading to a Tear Jerker when he dies at Sora's side, lamenting the fact that he never got to revive Roxas. Fortunately, by the events of Kingdom Hearts III, Roxas is revived by Sora and Vexen, and reunites with Axel.

But he sides with the former. Cap, who has been Cosmic Cubed into a Hydra agent, sent Deadpool on a mission to assassinate Phil Coulson and prevent him from warning everyone about what's happening with him and Hydra. Coulson was a very close friend of Preston's and Wade felt guilty after completing the task. He asks Cap how he will ever explain things to Preston. Later, Wade meets up with Preston to check on the family when a dark dome appears over Manhattan. She tells Deadpool to get in the car so they can find Coulson. Wade is completely torn. Preston wonders why Wade needed to see Coulson the other night, and Wade lies about the reason, and tells Preston he never found Coulson. When they get to his hide-out -which Wade burned down after killing Phil, he says it didn't look that way the other night he was there. He continues to play dumb while there, but Preston finds out the truth when she watches a surveillance video.

Goose was the youngest of the Troopers, and the only one who remained loyal to Earth's government after the disaster that ended the project. His loyalty was "rewarded" by BETA forcing him into becoming a Hunter of His Own Kind.

When the captain of the Klingon vessel, Kargan, suspects the Enterprise to have sabotaged his ship, he demands Riker tell him how best to attack the Enterprise. When Riker refuses, Kargan accuses him of being negligent in the oath of loyalty he took when joining his crew. Riker states emphatically that he will not break any oath he had taken, neither to Kargan nor to Starfleet: if so ordered, he would join Kargan in battle and go down swinging fighting the Enterprise, but he would not reveal any secrets that would endanger the Enterprise. Admiral Norah Satie and her aide Sabin Genestra accuse both crewman Simon Tarses and Lieutenant Worf of conflicting loyalties in "The Drumhead" as Tarses had a Romulan grandfather and Worf's father was (wrongly) accused by the Empire of betraying the Khitomer outpost to the Romulans. In "Redemption" Worf has to decide whether his duty as a Starfleet officer or his duties as a member of the House of Mogh take precedence. Feeling he owes a debt to Gowron for restoring his honor, Worf resigns his commission as a Starfleet officer in order to fight in the Klingon Civil War.
