( Boy, you ought to read up some history. Corruption has only existed since Democracy appeared. )

Aval laughed heartedly at Zue's reply, witnessing pure innocence and naiveté. All men, regardless of their philosophy or background, at least once perceived their government as corrupted and painted all others with a singular brush. Long did Zue's road present itself before he understood more about the world and its countles complex political schèmes.

"Your people, Zue? So naive. I see my youthful self in you at this very moment. Did the Nords fight their people during Ulfric's uprising? No. They fought a common enemy. Did Imperials fight their people during the numerous times Cyrodiil's Ruby Throne sat empty? No. They fought a common enemy, as well. The concept of you fighting your people only exists within your mind, Serjo. We Dunmer lived centuries if a milenia of constant warring and scheming between Morrowind' Great Houses. Who are we to beleive Argonians are any better in this regard?


 * If you are so innocent as to beleive we would strike at our enemy directly, perhaps you should return to Helgen and learn a lesson from Saren's actions. While certainly barbaric, Saren's acts freed many people and sparked a rebellion far grander than what our mere mortal eyes can perceive. These Argonians are no doubt traveling towards Soltheim, now, to report to their master in Raven Rock. Even though it was not our initial plan, Saren bolstered Black Marsh in more ways than one. As you can see, we only stoke a fire that others are free to ignore or nourish. We forced no one's hands."

Aval continued, enjoying one last sip of wine. Now standing directly in front of Zue in a proud, confident manner with Saren admiring his best friend's spectacle.

"Upon a finishing note, we do not force you here against your will. We did not restrain, gag or blind you. You are free to go at any moment. You may even spread word of this sanctuary -- we will abandon it by night. Even were anyone to search it down to the fondation, they would find naught but fresh food and aged wine." Aval finished as he stepped aside, clearing the way for Zue to leave should he wish to.
