When he learns that his family is safe, I expect that he will turn against the church and the Go4 and team up with Charis to end the war. In his heart of hearts he knows that the church is corrupt, and that the church of Charis is the better church. I believe he is ready to hear the truth. He has experienced the differences himself, both personally and professionally. It will pain him deeply, I am sure, but he will be outraged (IMO) to learn how he has been used.
TBird50,
I tend to agree and especially when we combine with the fact that the army that escaped the sausage grinder has a strong loyalty to their general (who has been having his doubts about the Inquisitor) we could see the bulk of Dohlar's armed forces switch alliances.
