Larksong Grotto truth coming out of her well to shame mankind

Tavi hears the reply from Reek but doesn't trust it. They were both well aware of what kind of wolves the dragons were, and yet he had been ready to make a deal with them — and whatever fondness she still had for Reek was swiftly destroyed by the fact he had lied to her about this. Lying or simply not telling her, it didn't matter - it felt the same. 

And then the dark woman is talking again, and Tavi feels more on-edge than before. This wasn't a good situation and her own anger was making it worse; but how could she stay quiet? Thuringwethil goes on to threaten her unborn children and Tavi wants to intercept her, to bound forward and do something to thwart her before such threats can be realized. She ends up doing the opposite — slinking back next to Reek while the dragon and her lackey begin to depart.

She won't stop them, but she does snap hastily at Reek under her breath, Since you didn't include me in this, this is your problem to figure out. She thought he had made up his mind on what he desired, who he desired, and yet it looked to Tavi like her partner still wanted everything. Maybe this coalition was necessary now if only for the safety of her own brood, but Tavi wasn't about to forfeit herself and be ruled by a Dragon unless it was absolutely necessary.

Then again, If we don't do this, she might choose war against us next. I can't fight like this Reek. It all came down to him and his decisions. Once she'd thrown her hasty words in to his ear Tavi fell silent and began to walk alone towards the grotto, where she could rest herself in peace. She would be leaving Reek behind to struggle through this alone, being utterly done with him.
