Whose last vow ? Which vow ?
I hesitated before posting, I feel stupid, but I didn't understand the title -yes, I know, I will put it on a T-shirt, ok !!
Who is the condemned person ? Probably Sherlock (the east wind in the end), but could be Magnussen, someone else ?
Besides : what is the vow ? Naming the baby Sherlock ? Seriously...
Thanks for your help...

Re: Whose last vow ? Which vow ?
The title comes from Sherlock's second speech in TSOT, after he finishes playing the waltz:
More importantly, however, today we saw two people make vows. I’ve never made a vow in my life, and after tonight I never will again. So, here in front of you all, my first and last vow. Mary and John: whatever it takes, whatever happens, from now on I swear I will always be there, always, for all three of you.
So the last vow is Sherlock promising to take care of John and his family, no matter the cost.
Mary

John: That's clever. So you scratch their backs and...
Sherlock: Yes. And then disinfect myself.

And that's why Sherlock shot Magnussen.
