So, I know Dungeons and Dragons isn't technically writing, but it is a form of collaborative storytelling and the advice I need is from a storyteller's perspective.
So, as you may know, in the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons, Warlocks get their power from making a Pact with a powerful being called a Patron. One of the people in my campaign is a warlock, and his Patron's goals mostly don't interfere with the party's goals. However, at some point in the story, her goals are going to be in direct opposition with the party's and so she's going to probably threaten the warlock. But I don't want his connection with his Patron to be permanently destroyed because of this. Any ideas on what I should do?
For background, the Patron is an old and powerful dragon whose soul was bound to a sword. She wants to be resurrected instead of an important NPC. I assume, because most of my party are good people, they'll resurrect the NPC who they need to stop the villain.
