Gosh, all of these responses are great.
Xavarian doesn't actually have any very close friends. Â But assuming he did for this question, unlike many here, he would react in a completely situational matter.Â
Â
* If he knew why they were fighting, he may potentially take sides if he felt strongly for one of their reasons over the other. Â If he actually got involved or not, depends on how the fight started, and if the result would effect him.
* If it was more of a personal dispute between them (and didn't effect him directly, or his goals), he would keep out of the way; what right has he, afterall, to intervene in something they both deem fit to take part in? Â If it did effect his goals or desires to more than a minor degree, he'd get involved.
* Insofar as his involvement, or if they seemed like they wanted a solution, however, instead of just an 'honor duel', brawl, or what have you, Xavarian would attempt to speak up and be diplomatic about it; see all sides, look for a logical solution that leaves all of them with something they want. Â Possibly separating the lot of them via ice barrier if it seemed necessary.
* If they tried to drag him into the actual physical fight (should he not be willing), it would be chaos. Â There would be things on fire, shards of ice everywhere, some people would probably end up asleep on the ground, Xavarian would be beat up. Â ... Good times.
On the one hand, Xavarian is pretty relativist in view, and isn't about the get in the way of something that he might think is of cultural or personal significance to those involved. Â If they all want to do it, let them do it (so long as it doesn't conflict with his desires). Â On the other hand, once it conflicts, he'd want it dealt with, and would take what seems to be the 'most logical route' to doing that at the time. Â
In reality, though, Xavarian would likely be fairly nervous about this; all sorts of Aether would be happening around him. Â He is likely to pick some friends over others, (if he had them) to side with more frequently, and may defend them abruptly if it looks like a killing blow might be struck, but it's pretty hard to say currently, as he's lacking those friends, and thus, can't speak for if they'd even want to be 'helped' or not. Â Importance level to him here would be: Â Xavarian's ultimate desires > All friends' involved ultimate desires (with a few likely superseding others) > if a solution is wanted > the wish for conflict itself > being harmed somehow (> 'what's morally right'; this is the least important and in parentheses because to be quite honest, it doesn't even factor in, really, other than an afterthought for appearances, if need be.)
TLDR: Xavarian's an analytical, relativist butt who wants things, and will react accordingly.
