It depends...

Why was your master "dishonored"?

Who decided that something he or she did was "dishonorable" and why does this person have authorization to make such a judgment?

How is "dishonorable" defined within the context of your social group?

What did your master do?

Is your concept of "personal" honor an external or internal construct? In other words, whose opinion is most important to you, your own opinion or the opinions of others?

Maybe another way to approach this might be...

If you remain loyal to someone who is a good person, but who has been unfairly denigrated or unjustly accused, you are a good person.

If you remain loyal to someone who is evil and you obey his or her commands even though you believe you are doing bad things, you are a bad person.

What does it mean to "honorably" serve, anyway?
