I, as well, hope this ends up being a gray vs grey conflict and not a "dragons bad" kind of thing. Though I'm willing to give SE credit and assume it will be until given reason to believe otherwise. After all, Ishgard isn't exactly portrayed as open-minded or flexible in the main story, and I get the impression that, like Klingons in Star Trek: TNG, the sins of one person stain an entire family in their eyes. So it's easy to see how they could be half the problem. Though we've only really heard their half of the story. Part of me wonders if (at least briefly) we'll end up fighting *against* Ishgard in the main story, especially if there's some sympathetic Dravanian force that wants the war to end (though obviously both sides keep the war going in a larger sense).
