This is guess-work based on observations of Miqo'te culture because there is just really nothing I've seen that gives us info on how they perceive same-sex couples.

You probably know Keeper males wander. While I don't see it as outside the realm of possibility that they visit their family on occasion, they are very independent, and live by their own individual creed. Because the Lorebook also states that family/sept (for Keepers) and tribe (for Seekers) customs vary a bit from group to group, I doubt Keeper males choose to abide by any one set of customs. As they visit other Keeper septs, they would encounter new customs they would have to adapt to for the short-term.

Emphasis on "be adaptable" means I doubt there would be any feeling of betraying a code or custom. However, a feeling that he might be discarding his role for the survival of his race might be there. But I think that depends on the character more than anything, and I would advise you do what you think is more fun to play around with.

Now, as for the man he's fallen for being a Seeker, we are also dealing with a lack of info. We know there are several half-Seeker half-Keeper NPCs in the game. I just still don't know how it's perceived. I assume there will be those who want to abide by Clan purity; otherwise, Seekers and Keepers would have merged long ago. But your character can't have biological children with this man he loves, so there is literally no "harm" aside from what I stated above.

Also, keep in mind the Goddess the Keepers worship the most is Menphina the Lover. There is argument that can be made for Keepers being accepting of love regardless of who that love is for.

In the end, the lack of specific info means you can do anything you want with this. Again, I'd say do what you think will be more fun to play out.
