#2: Initial revision
If Saskia is his biological mother, presumably she was bisexual, not exactly gay. So although in the LGBTQ community, she was not lesbian or gay, you aren't following that trope. But that is nitpicking: The real morally corrupt element of that Trope is making LGBTQ _an evil punishable by death_, and since you have other LGBTQ characters in the novel (most of them), you won't be following that trope unless you find a way to kill all of them (or make them miserable) for their sin. If there are any happy endings for LGBTQ characters, you have proven that just _being_ LGBTQ is not a barrier to a fulfilling and happy life. If there are NO happy endings, I'd think you were perpetuating the _LGBTQ is a punishable sin_ trope.
