Alex chuckled, wrapping an arm around Payton's shoulders and leading him out into the hall. "I don't think you need to worry about that much. Any conversation you'll be having with them is likely to be mostly answering questions like. 'How was your journey?' or 'Do you like the pate?' Their philosophy is that the less they know about their allies, the more likely they are to stay allied. The only politics they care for are the ones our kingdom is directly involved in, and I'm sure they feel the same way about their future daughter-in-law. Once they see they've finally found a suitor who holds my interest, they'll be so eager to keep you that any other questions the might ask to judge your character and worthiness are forgotten."
