Rialas listened quietly to everyone as they spoke, trying to get a better sense of everything. He was grateful for the kindheartedness of everyone around him. They all seemed amiable, and hadn't demanded anything from him. In fact the Breton man even offered Rialas bread, which he gratefully accepted. He chuckled at Rolard's pun, silently hoping it would be his last brush with death for a time.
Meanwhile, White-Wolf sat at the fire, quietly watching the blue flames as they danced in front of him. Something had been bothering the dragon, and Rolard finally put a face to it. The situation was ridiculous. Sure, the Dark Brotherhood and the Thieves Guild had a long-standing agreement and helped each other from time to time, such was the case with the new Dawnstar Sanctuary, but physically working together was unheard of. The two groups were just too different, it just shouldn't work out.
To make matters even worse, there was a Companion amongst them. A legal organization dedicated to glorious combat should automatically find an enemy in those on the darker side of the law working from the shadows. But yet, everyone got along.
In addition to that, there were mortals working side-by-side with a dragon...well, sort of anyway. Vampires working with Werewolves, with familial lines separating the two. Bandits befriending scholars, and even blue fire.
By Akatosh, this meeting shouldn't have happened. Too many things opposed one another. Yet here he sat in front of blue fire in a cave of hybrids.
A new scent reached Wolf's nostrils, that of a newcomer. He spun to his feet and quickly walked to the mouth of the cave, readying himself for an attack.
