Opened...I can see possibly moving this to Bodyguard Betrayal.
I cannot tell from the image if the knight acted as a bodyguard or assassin.
Shouldn't that be obvious from the fact that he's a knight, and that by definition, his role is to serve the king?

Supporting the motion to move.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?I think it fits better on the current page. The knightly imagery with the holy-ish light fits better with the oath part to me.
Check out my fanfiction!For me, knights have stronger connotation with "royal service" than oath, so I disagree with
It's not bad for Bodyguard Betrayal with the caption. Without it, though, I don't have enough context. I wouldn't know that guy is a king (is that a crown in the bottom left? it's really hard to see, and I only noticed it when I went looking for proof the guy was a king). The feel I get more from the image is a character slaying everyone on his way up a tower to his real target.
Bump. Any other thoughts?

It looks like there were two previous threads on this, both of which decided to go with Keep Until Better Image Suggested after a motion to pull. My proposal is different: I think the current image would be a much better illustration for Bodyguard Betrayal (which is currenty unpictured) than this trope. The Oathbreaker is a character who is known for breaking whatever vow, not just one of protection. This also means that the quote, the picture, and possible the trope name aren't all from the same source anymore as well.
