Things did not seem fine at all to Vondal in that moment. He had one woman pacing around her room like an agitated feline, and the other one had lured him there in the first place. At least there was no dragon to glare at him here so that was an improvement. "If... if you're sure." Though being told not to worry sounded very much like he should be worried. "You don't have to protect anyone from me, I promise. I'm just... just a sailor."
He shrank down in his chair as he tried to think through everything. Maybe he could just run. He could probably outrun them... though he wasn't sure about a dragon. No, he definitely wouldn't be able to outrun a dragon. At least they'd sent a message to Helyna, but he had no idea what they'd sent or what she would say. What if she didn't want to talk to him at all and then he never got any answers?
He waited until the angry one left to start brewing tea and softly asked, "How long do we have to wait to hear back? I'd need time to ride back to the Hold and I don't want to inconvenience anyone..." maybe if he worded it that way they'd be more inclined to have mercy and release him.
