With the possible threat of intruders being gone, Ada finally relaxed. Going back to where the rest of the guild members were, Ada watched curiously as Sir Reed and the others talked with each other. Everything seemed to be going fine, despite the many complicated words Ada didn't understand but out of nowhere, Bart suddenly made a rather disgusted expression as he looked at Sir Reed. The words he said, along with his reaction were enough to cause an immediate response from the other members. From what she understood, Bart was mad at Sir Reed for some reason and the rest of the guild members was mad at Bart for what he said.

Ada had no idea of what an 'Ortusian' was or why Bart had such a reaction to that word, but she knew that Sir Reed was definitely a good person. Bart, while sometimes a bit hard to understand, didn't seem to be a bad person either, judging on how he seemed to be perfectly fine in letting her stay on the guild and eat. Trying to defuse the situation, Ada approached Sir Reed, standing on her tail as she smiled at him and gently patted his head, doing exactly the same to Bart.

As Freyr listened to Haley's reply, he noticed that his question did sound a bit weird, almost as if he had some kind of prejudice or something.

[color=8dc73f]"Oh no! I didn't mean like that. I trust Sir Reed. Even if he was from Varjo, he would be above any suspicion at this point. He is a part of the guild. Besides, if I did judge other people by where they came from instead by who they are, I wouldn't have left the Vieran Forests."[/color] Freyr said to Haley, trying to clear the misunderstanding.

[color=8dc73f]"I just made this question due to the recent... political issues that we are dealing with, mainly with Varjo. Some of our actions might bring dangerous consequences not only to ourselves, but the entire guild. So in order to avoid that, it doesn't hurt to know which kingdoms we need to be careful with."[/color] he said, explaining himself.

While politics weren't exactly something Freyr was interested in, the story behind Ortus and the Order was still interesting, making him pay close attention as Sir Reed began talking about it. Surprisingly enough, Bart seemed to show quite a strange reaction after Sir Reed finished his explanation. His dislike towards Ortusians was clear in his tone of voice, even if the motives for such feelings weren't.

Seeing the situation quickly deterirate into a conflict, making even the innocent Ada, who probably didn't understand even half of what was being said act, Freyr gave a few steps forward after Nagare and Kira gave their replies.

[color=8dc73f]"Please, let's calm down, everyone. We can all vouch for Sir Reed here. He spent enough time in the guild for us to know and trust him."[/color] Freyr started, moving so he was standing between Sir Reed and Bartholomew.

[color=8dc73f]"I too, can't understand the reasons behind Bart's actions, but conflict is not the answer. We should all calm down, sit and talk before taking any action we might come to regret later."[/color] he finished as he tried to calm down not only Bartholomew, but the rest of the guild members as well.
