"A word Alanna" Jon called his Champion back who rolled her startling eyes and turned to bow to him.
"My Liege? " She asked, knowing what was coming, it wasn't like Jon to simply accept new comers when rebellion was always a possibility in such a big kingdom.
"You may have wondered why I had such acceptance in letting such...well strange people into my kingdom" Jon said acutely as Alanna smiled.
"I have a faint idea but I want it clarified" She murmured and looked at him.
"Basically, it's obvious these people are strange and have their own brand of magic that I'd like to keep an eye on. They don't know us and we don't know them and if we merely tossed them out of our kingdom or attempted to imprison then we would have our dungeons destroyed or another regent snapping them up for their own uses." Jon finished and waited for her reaction.
"It's a case of keep your friends close and your enemies closer?" Alanna asked and looked at him with a smile.
"More of Keep your friends close and people you're suspicious of closer" Jon nodded and looked at her with his startling eyes.
"Very astute, what do you wish to be done?" Alanna asked, a grin on her face.
"Keep Georges people on them. Maybe your daughter to befriend that one that over used the term "Like", Kitty I think her name was" Jon said with a smile and Alanna nodded.
"She'll be thrilled" At that Alanna turned and strolled out.

"But Kel!" Owen protested as he looked at his friend.
"No Owen, you can't look after them" Kel said tiredly, she had stopped off at her rooms to collect some more blankets for the X men and some candles from the quarter masters. "I mean it, I'll be sleeping near them tonight and you have duties"
"No I don't, I have this quarter free" Owen said and smiled at her.
"Still no" Kel said and walked out as her younger friend dogged her.
"Why do you want to" She murmured, her best Yamani Lump face on as she whirled at his irritating presence.
"Because I want to help and after the jolly war there's not all that much to do for a green knight" Owen said truthfully and then Kel sighed.
"I guess I need someone to stop Neal from killing the blue one" She murmured and nodded as Owen whooped.
(Di chappy-ness! I loved it.. but it was too short and you took too long. -glare- I'll have my chap up soon.. as for why there's only one chapter on EE we can't figure out how to post Di's chappies... they won't take it for some reason.)
