Actually I don't play Kyle as having a direct grudge, it's all more on a
professional level than that. The players feel he's just wating for the
right moment for paybacks...whenever that will be. Besides, there are
advantages to having a best friend that's a dragon that could wait
decades if need be... <grin>
