The faerie granted Roxanne no visual attention, but for the barest flick of his ear -- listening as she offered her quiet words. A proposition; one that did not surprise him.
"I have little interest in risking the lives of my clanmates for those who have often done nothing but scorn them." Indeed, it often rarely mattered to anyone, when someone joined the Pitt -- whether they possessed any involvement to the Pitt's violent past or not.
Gael certainly possessed little concern, for the lives of those who would rather see his home burn, though he had seen such fire in the Tanglers more often than pirates as of late. Even there, existed exceptions, as more and more time past since the reigns of those before him.
"However," the Ardent's cool gaze rested on Kian as he quietly spoke, cautious of further outbursts. "I have no interest in becoming the next target for this ambitious conquest of his. He is clearly overreaching." A logistical nightmare. He had seen arrogance like Stryker's before; it never ended well.
"I believe my cousins possess the means to communicate across great distances," Gael would point out after a moment of consideration. Indeed he had no doubt of the bond between Kian and Séamus. Neither would he be surprised for either to possess further connections, perhaps to their children, such as Keona.
"We should be able to act with more discretion, through them." A promise for cooperation, but for a different time and place -- this gathering was rife with conflict.
As the Ardent shifted his gaze once more, he observed the Tanglewood luminary's plight with no trace of compassion. His defiance to the end could be respected however. As for Stryker, Gael could scoff. Pathetic. Turning leaders into hostages, only to kill them outright in some flamboyant 'show' -- destroying the leverage he had gathered and opening the gates to rebellion with no more threat of their loss.
As such, Gael possessed no surprise at Aurum's swift and cold-hearted retaliation. An eye for an eye. The Ardent only had disgust, for such blatant dismissal of their own clanmates' lives, in wanderers such as Brutei. Such a base lack of loyalty only spoke further to the inevitable failure of Stryker's ambitions.

The vulpine released a quiet breath, eyes flashing between the draconic creature he knew to be Trygve and the Typhoon Quartermaster. The only display of emotion crossing his face yet on the day; wary concern for his own.The faerie granted Roxanne no visual attention, but for the barest flick of his ear -- listening as she offered her quiet words.
