"So I heard the Dovahkiin rode you?" A green coloured dragon laughed, "how did that feel?" It pushed another who joined laughing.
The oranged scaled one sighed and shook his scales back, still feeling the warmth lingering around his neck "why don't you tell me, Kulaas? You've had the Dovahkiin ride you as well... But didnt they make you kill bandits for half of morndas?"
The other dragons 'oooh'ed in unison and backed away from the two.
"Yeah well--" the green scaled started before getting interrupted.
"That's enough!" A heavy voice rained down, "oh... Odahviing, we didn't see you there" Krilot bowed his head in respect.
"Don't forget, after Alduin; the Dovahkiin promised that if we didn't attack any cities or villages... We could continue to live. And as we've all seen, they can take us down easily."
His voice stung their ego, a few mumbled 'he's right', 'rather this than dead'.
"Good. Now after Alduin--"
"Didn't Dovahkiin ride you directly to Alduin?" The ogre green dragon boldly said with a snicker.
Odahviing turned around sharply, knocking a tree over with his tail. "Everyone have been ridden by Dovahkiin, and if they haven't, they will. Now you shut your little--!"
"Odahviing... There's no need for mun made curses." A warm voice settled over the tense atmosphere.
Krilot smiled and exhaled, Odahviing shook his head "Paarthurnax... What are you doing down from your mountain?"
"Well if you must know-" he settled into a more comfortable position, "The dragonborn have called upon my help with something on Solstheim."
"Look out for Vahlok" one of the dragons said, "his tomb--"
"That's what they need help with, some history lessons, maybe a little push in the right direction... Dragonborn may be just that, but smart isn't always found in their race." Paarthurnax warmly chuckled, Odahviing smiled with "that's true."
"I believe befriending the dragon- ah, Dovahkiin, is the best course of action. If you seek revenge for the world eater, you'll suffer the same fate as he. They're quite helpful, and they do not hate us. Rather our actions... should it interfere with mun and their-"
"Wars"
"Travels"
"Work"
The other dragons joined in with optimism.
The old wise dragon smiled weakly "yes all of those, well I must be off"
He flew off within a minute and left the others to speculate.
