"I think you misunderstand me, Chancellor.  I am not trying to be difficult.  I do not know where my father is.  If I did, I would not tell you because it is my duty not to tell you.  Your responsibility is to seek out those authorized to inform you, not harass the son of the Emperor.  In such dire circumstances as these, when we find the Thalmor camped at our doorstep, the highest security should be observed.  I find it odd that you would come to me.  It suggests that your intentions might not be entirely honorable." (I should probably point out, then, that Volgus can be an ass, but knows what boundaries he can ignore as well as those he cannot. If he feels that he is being spoken down to or insulted, he's going to answer in an equally disrespectful manner. He respects Cathal as an intelligent individiual but he's not going to take what he perceives as an insult from anyone, even Mak or High Chancellor Isabelle.)

"To me, it is only as curious as you not knowing of what your father is up to," Volgus shrugged in answer. "Although I suppose it is not my place to judge, seeing as I do not know either, which is why I had asked you. But in any case, since neither of us know of what it is that he is doing at the top of the tower, I believe it might be best to simply wait until he comes down. No doubt he's speaking to Isabelle or Claudius about the Thalmor sitting outside of our walls."
