I haven't been debating much lately eventhough I was one of the original advocates for posting strong arguments for positions. Apologies to my bros.
I think our next step is easy:
Once we clean up the Sabbat problem, we have to get back to Rannigan (Rannigan begin again). Rannigan is important for two reasons:
Whatever knowledge it is he has (and perhaps why he was seeking us out- does he want to kill Sommers, or seek his aid? We need to find out.)
His position in the war. The war began because du Marchais said Rannigan had been killed by Sabbat. If we find Rannigan, the Prince will lose face, but if we don't, we'll have failed our mission.
Our mission from the Prince has never been mooted. We are still supposed to find him or his remains and alert the Prince to them. Thu that's what we should be doing next. Whether or not we decide to take him to the Prince discreetly once we figure this shit out will be up to a vote, but right now our power depends on striking a fine balance between the Prince and Earnes.
At the crucial moment I believe we should not betray Earnes, but not the Prince either. What we want to do is negotiate. du Marchais will take the fall for leading the Prince into the war. The Prince retains his position and power, but Earnes gains some power and we play kingmaker. That should be our goal and that should be why we lied. We must convince Earnes of the necessity of not moving against the Prince in her magna carta scheme too early. Despite the war, he's still important.
