The boy continued to hide behind Ahnasha despite Fendros' words. Even if he wasn't too afraid to speak, he did not have a name to give Fendros, since he was not yet old enough for his naming ceremony. He continued to look at Fendros through frightened eyes until their silent standoff was broken by a voice sounding out from the doorway of a nearby building. 

"Come, hatchling." The Argonian woman said, to which the boy immediately darted off crying towards her. She shot Fendros a distrustful glare, then stepped back into the inn and closed the door behind her. 

"Well...I guess it is a good thing we won't be staying the night. Somehow, I doubt the boy's mother would give you a good deal on a room." Ahnasha commented. The entire situation was uncomfortable, and she certainly did not envy being Fendros right now. Distrust towards Dunmer was probably higher in Black Marsh than anywhere else in Tamriel. It had not really been bad at all in Thorn, but a town like this did not see visitors nearly as frequently. "I'm guessing the boy just heard stories about the past and thought it was all still true today. Children of that age can latch onto things like that, even if their parents don't mean for them to. I saw how the mother glared at you, but that's probably just because you made her son cry. Not the best first impression, really." She said, wanting to try and reassure Fendros that everyone around them probably didn't despise him. Of course, she didn't [i]know[/i] what any of them actually thought, but with how long it had been since the slave trade was active, not all of them would be resentful. Indeed, apart from a few glances, most of the town didn't seem to be paying Fendros or the rest of the group much attention. 

"Still, I am a bit curious about how things are going to be once we get to that village. From what Meesei has explained, the nomadic villages are the most traditional of Argonians. I guess it all depends on what kind of traditions they have. I think Meesei said they don't all follow the same customs. Maybe you should try learning more about the Hist to impress them or something? Like Ariel did in Thorn." She suggested.
