[ Duo scratches at the base of his braid, a bit confounded with the amount of time it's taking him to figure out where the hell ll this animosity is coming from. It's all a bit.. weird, if he's honest. But he supposes it might be best to tell her even the weird details just in case - ]

It's.. hard to figure out. Both sides are, naturally, pretty proud of their history and whatever but on the same coin... When I ask villagers about their ancient history, about things I've found out in the woods that are ancient and worn down it's like they don't.. remember? [ He flicks a hand out in frustration, a grimace flicking over his features. ] It sounds stupid but I don't get the vibe that they're just hiding things from me because I'm a refugee.

It's like they just don't know. Which is pretty damn weird at the base of it all and concerning as hell on the upper end.
