Can you do anything to calm this situation?
You don't dare step between them
You know trying to get in between the two men would achieve nothing. Even if you could wedge yourself between them there's no way you would be strong enough to force them apart. You are glad that Jon finally stands up and takes a couple steps towards them, realizing he is the only one who has a chance of breaking up a fight if one starts.
The shouting between Nell and Adi continues, with the argument quickly devolving into personal insults and threats. One of them, you can't tell exactly who, throws a shove and that immediately gets all three men mixed in to a frantic melee.
You take a few extra steps back when you see a flash of metal. Someone pulled out a dagger! Once they all realize that weapons have been drawn all limits are off. The conflict becomes a blur of leather and steel and you can't tell if anyone is getting the upper hand. You soon cover your face with your hands, not able to stomach the scene unfolding in front of you. Besides, you can always heal any wounds they inflict on each other after the fact.
You wait with your eyes shut while the sounds of struggle continue, hoping they will cease soon and without much trouble.
