Jasper stepped inside following the family, this was the part where they went separate ways, he knew she would be alright, the people here are kind and the guards are well trained and equipped, nothing bad should happen to her. "Jasper, please come this way, I want to speak to you and my advisers about a couple things before dinner," The King spoke to the Golden Prince. The King is a very opened minded man, with a curly black beard and a large stomach, he was kind in every way, but his war strategies were of the most violent, a man of many faces. Jasper nodded in response to the King before looking at his sister and smiling, hoping it reassured her safety to be away from him. The King started to talk after awhile of walking down the hall, this seemed more like a small short walk that would provide privacy and enough time to discuss immediate matters. "My Prince, I am glad that you are taking responsibility in such matters now, you have grown with your age and I am honored and pleased to work with you."

Jasper smiled and looked back towards the King, "Thank you, I'll admit I have changed a lot since I was younger, I have my sister to thank for that, I wouldn't be here if it weren't for her, so I too am pleased to be working with you.

The King laughed a little, "Women always have a way of changing men," he grabbed the Princes shoulder and shook like they were best friends before letting go and continuing on with business, "But now is not the time for chit chat, we have things to discuss, I hope you have been informed of what me and your father have discussed in the past?"

"Yes, he has, I am fully aware of our current trade agreement and alliance."

"Good Good, that saves a lot of time, my city is currently running roughly, we have more bandit occurrences in the past couple months, lowering our stock and supplies, our food levels are acceptable but not great, we'll live but we can't take another hit from the bandits. Now I understand your father, I mean, EverGlenn has requested some soldiers for a constant defense against Zanonia, I want to help, but losing men gives us a higher risk at losing our supplies. If you have something to offer now is the time to give, this is, as you know, an urgent issue." The King walked silently allowing the Golden Prince to think before speaking.

Jasper narrowed his eyebrows, tucking an arm around his chest and resting his other elbow on it so his chin was on his hand as they walked, "I must say that is very unfortunate and I'm sorry for your loses, we do have an outpost near our borders, we've made for instances where our neighbors have lost supplies, though since it is new, there isn't much but it may suffice for a couple days, that may not seem like enough but I am willing to offer one more thing that you would be interested in," he strictly remembers how Iglasians love titles, "I will play handicap against any of your sons during the Dueling Championship this year, you of all people should know I'm a high threatening duelist along with the Calorean, this would give your sons an extreme advantage against me, giving them a stronger chance at the title for Champion, if they can manage that is," The Prince held a greedy but friendly smile, a little gamble and for fun as well, the city still gets their supplies but to put the cherry on top, he sweetened the deal with a handicap.

The King stopped in his tracks and thought about it for a bit, seeing the ups and downs, if it would be worth or not, and if his sons would be able to manage for such a title...

Fiyori smiled at the Princess before lifting his arm in the direction that they would be walking, away from the small meeting, "Not a problem." He walked with her side by side down the halls, the walls were of a basic but durable stone, similar to a clay like material but it was also fancier than basic houses in the area. There were paintings hung up almost everywhere, pots and plants decorated the floors and low ceilings, their colors were vibrant and relaxing, made anybody feel like they were home. "So Princess, tell me, where have you been all those years, tell me of your adventures, I heard about your disappearance and then your return, I was rather happy to hear that, and curious about what your did. He continued to escort her around, showing her each room and telling her some history while still continuing to ask her personal questions.
