Something small I came up with...

(Cutscene: The Vanguard all are scattered around, in a very tense fashion. Dim lighting illuminates the room, with slight rainfall being heard outside. Cayde is at the desk, opposite of Ikora on the other side of the table. Zavala stands looking at the window, at the gloomy weather.)

Cayde: Soo...About his message-

Zavala: We can't condone the Hunter's acts. He is heading towards a dark path, making allies in Cabal and Fallen...I fear we may have another Dredgen Yor on our hands.

Cayde: (Moving towards Zavala) Now look, I know Cyrus. He's devout to the Light, just like the rest of us. Maybe he justs sees things differently?

Zavala: What would be the benefit of having followers of Darkness at our doorstep?!

Cayde: Well, remember the Taken War? Imagine if we'd somehow made a compact with the Skyburners...(Motioning) Imagine it, Cabal ordnance, along with Guardian manpower, we could've blown the Dreadnaught to bits!

Ikora: A little too optimistic, Cayde.

Cayde: Still, my point stands. It could've helped a lot, and it can help now.

Zavala: Ikora, please talk some sense into him...Surely you agree with me on this? They seek destruction of our life, to take the Traveler..We'd lose everything we've fought for!

(Long silence. Then..)

Ikora: The enemy is not going to be consoled, nor will they console us. We can't be sympathic towards them in any way, shape or form..

Cayde: (Sarcastically, mumbling) Greeeat...

Ikora: (Hushing Cayde) But.

Cayde: (Suddenly chipper again) I'm listening.

Ikora: Perhaps we're misreading this. The Fallen were once holders of the Traveler...Say the House of Scars simply wants to ensure their survival? Same for the Cabal, too. They need to make sure they'll survive, as Reu'ulan carrying out his plan could have disasterous consequences..

Zavala: You're still forgetting the matter that they are our enemy, Ikora. Cold, unfeeling warmongers, most of them are. And if Cyrus goes down that path-

Ikora: If there is one thing I know as a Warlock, it's that Light shines the brightest in the prescene of Darkness, Zavala.

(Long silence.)

Zavala: Be that as it may, we must not interfere yet. The Vanguard and the Frontier must fight separately, for now. We know not of the Hunter's true intentions, and we'll never help any enemy of Light rise to power. We are at war now...And trust is something to be earned.
