As an royal escort dirrectly from Minas Tirith was approuching the city of dale they could see the dwarves walking around, occupying the village built by the lands of light long time ago. This was not a normal meeting but a meeting between two kings to form a some sort of peace and truce to stand together and not fight. Aragorn the king of Reunited Kingdom had come to talk and he held great hope that it would go well, as the escort now stood outside the walls of the city they stopped and he rode forth with 10 citadel guards around him on horse incase this was an ambush or a some sort of trick."Behold, I Elessar the king of Reunited Kingdom have come to speak with the ruler of these lands, to talk of peace and truce under safe protection."He said and yelled out to dwarves, wondering what their responce would be.

The gates to the great city of Dale suddenly began to open. It took about five minutes before they were fully opened and a great prossession of Dwarves came forth from the city. Around two-hundred in all as Gurth Ironclaw stood at the head looking up at King Elessar. " It is good that you have come. " He said gruffly looking at the king. " So i shall hear it from you. What is it that you want? " He asked calmly. " And why should i accept? "

King Aragorn of the Reunited Kingdom was not the only one that had come to have a meeting with this dwarves, Elphir ruler of Belfalas was with him and so stood steady on the horse next to him. When the dwarves suddenly started moving and yelled out to the king, he watched and wondered where this might lead. He was there only for protecting the king together with the citadel guards who had followed. As he sat upon his horse, he was wearing his think armour that had belonged to his father Imrahil long time ago in the war of the ring. He was also wearing a blue cloak with a white swan on behind, the symbol of his kind and also had a helmet formed differently then other Gondorian helmets. This one was more like the old numenorean helmets but with swan wings on the sides, also a symbol of his kind.

Aragorn watched as the doors of Dale opened before him and out came a troop of orc with their king and leader, when the dwarven king spoke he listened with an interesting look and answered in return."I hear and see that you have taken the city of Dale but why take it with force when you can negotiate peacefully without harm, I am just a protect for it as you know and I will give it back to you if we still can keep this alliance. I do not wish war with the race of dwarves but peace were we can stand side by side whatever may come upon us, rumours tells me you have spoken with the powers without our borders but tell me why? What do you want? Whats your perpose with all these?"

OOC: (( I don't have orcs. I have dwarves. It was probably just a typo. Lol))
Gurth looked at the king, and at his guards. The dwarves that had come forth from Dale with him formed a half circle around the king and his men and listened to the conversation and waited to see if anything would go wrong. " The ally's that i choose to have is bussiness of my own and therefore i do not need to explain myself to you. The alliance that was with the Dwarves and your Kingdom were also not under my rule. As you may have noticed, if i had so wished i could have slain all the people that were here in this city. However, i stayed my soldiers and the causualties on your side were not above 50. " He said calmly. " But the negotiation is simple. Dale is now a home of the Dwarves. There shall be no attempt on Gondor's part to reclaim the city for it is not theirs to have. " He said calmly and gruffly. " However, if your soldiers do come then we shall not show mercy to them. Finally....As for an alliance between our Nations, i see no need for such an alliance. What can Gondor offer that i can not gain from Countries closer to me, such as Rhun and Haradwaith, Angmar and Mordor? Why should my alliegance not be with those closests to me? " He asked calmly.

(Oh lol, oops my mistake XD. So many things going on that I easy write wrong these days hehe.)
"The men of the Reunited Kingdom and dwarves have always been friends threw out the ages, why not continue that tradition. We have always helped your land when needed and this is how you repay us, with attacking innocent people and regreting an alliance between our nations. Why should an alliance be any difference, why cant we live together as we used too? You speak of war if we decide to take your city dale back but what about dwarves on human soil, what garanty do I and my people have that you wont attack our borders as you did with Dale?" Aragorn said and asked proudly as he watched the dwarf king infront of him, seeing the guards surrounding them in a circle but did not do anything. He wondered what was going on inside this dwarven brain if he wanted to attack or not, why are these dwarves so stubborn when the rest arent.

He listened to Elessar speak and was silent for only a moment before he spoke. " Tell me then good King. Where was Gondor when Sauron attacked against our Borders? Where were the men of Numenour when the Great city of Moria was overrun by orcs and goblins? Where was Gondor when Smaug the Dragon came against us and assailed this very city and the home of my fathers? " He asked gruffly. " You speak as if you are better than those you war against but you are the same. The Dark forces fight for land and power do you not do the same? You claim that it is in defense that you strike against the Dark Realms but i do not believe that to be true. What is your purpose for your assailment upon Mordor? I am aware that at this moment your troops muster and prepare for battle? Tell me good King. Has there been an attack from that country that i have learned no news off? I do not believe it to be so. Both sides are as evil as each other i say, for none have given me any reason to assume otherwise...." He said calmly.

"If you think we are the same then your blind, orcs and other minions of evil fight for land and power while we other fight for freedom and peace. Do you really think the power of evil would rest even when they had taken your world, they would used you as slaves or meat as you and your kind might have exsperianced before. There is a great differnece between us, if you join me and the other lights of good to preserve that peace then we will help each other to take away the evil forever..but if you join the power of evil then you are my enemy and the others enemy and you will never find peace cause when they are done with us and you have had your victory they will come for you."Aragorn said eagerly and serious as he watched the dwarf, wondering what he would choose cause this was a moment of faith.
