[ She nods. The Cwyld is something that still keeps anyone in this world hidden behind their walls. They've made defensive advancements to treat the threat – but not proactive. No assault directly to end the scourge of the lands.
Dany fears unless they provide that, they may be of no use to this world. ]
Mmm. I see. Was this Chamber a representative directly to the people? [ It was a difficult to try to envision anything but a monarchy, but this world seems to be thriving in their own way. There were so many things to consider that it was difficult not to be swept up into it. ] That is my view as well. With the topics given to us with adjusting to their world, it would still be viewed dubiously in my eyes to throw us bones instead of a full meal. Any debts we have accrued fills me with a fear – it leaves us blindly open for them to collect. With blood or otherwise.
[ It is almost always with blood. ]
Say we plant ourselves in their civil discussions – we put ourselves as true allies. [ However, Dany lowers her gaze a bit. ] Their matters become our own if they so call upon us. Will we have grounds to deny something that does not sit well with us, I wonder?
As much as any ally of the city may speak against an ill turn. Their matters are our own, but our matters become theirs in turn.
[he pauses for a moment.]
Our debts would be a matter to address sooner rather than later - if we were the ones to bring it up, it leaves them less room to blindside us with whatever cost they want to extract. And if they try to deny it, say it comes from good will alone - then they should be able to swear to that effect, and be held to it.
Agreed. Many of us wish to return home but not all. However, all of us did not make a choice to come to this world. Regardless of how others may view it, I do believe a debt is exchanged. Transparency is crucial and through my time here, I'm discovering little by little a poor leadership. If they will not help us find a way home, perhaps we should turn our attention somewhere that could.
[ She is stern in that, almost immovable. ]
I wish to not start war or shed blood, I wish for allies moving forward, not wardens.
Good. There has been some push back to the idea that we should all be allies in this view. [ Is she bitter? Absolutely. The girl was dealt a harsh reality check when people did not follow her like they would the revered Mother of Dragons in Essos. ] I believe we must start now, with or without everyone's approval. As much as I crucially would like to gather us all at one, someone needs to ask questions – begin the discussions of where we stand and how to prepare for any... complications.
[ Messy, messy affairs they are. ]
Asking questions will not silence the voices of those defiant to this, but inform them that our way is the right way.

[he closes his eyes briefly, and then refixes them on hers with a light in them.]
Such tasks cannot be completed alone. You might consider me among your allies on this side of things.
