Lyons gave him an approving non and winked at him. King Atrious extended his hand, "Arise Jasper, your master has kept me aware of your progress. I wish you the very best and Happy Winterfest." Atrius looked over to Lord Lyons, "Arise Gillian, see that he is ready to be knighted by next fall.  His skill precedes him."<br/>Lyons placed his arm on Jasper's shoulder. "I am proud of the lad. Thank you Sire. Please come and have supper before you return to Seville." Lyons leaned toward Jasper. "Bow, back 3 steps and turn. Well done."<br/>Jon knelled to his Sovereign, they spoke briefly, and joined the Jasper and Lyons, "Hey, Jasp, whoa to be asked to train his elite, personal guards, that is unheard of. You must be a good fighter. You would be if Lord Draco trained you."<br/>Kate passed last she gave her Godfather a hug and kiss on the cheek. She semi-curtsied then handed him a pouch of her healing supplies and rare herbs. "It has been too long since we saw each other. I miss you. Godfather have a wonderful Winterfest. Do visit before you leave."<br/>Atrius smiled at Kate and placed his left hand on hers, "You have the best greeting my sweet. Thank you for the gifts. You made them yourself. My your look like your mother and just as talented." He whispered to her, "Master mage Allen says your top of your class. Katherine, I could not be prouder." He looked at Amanda, "If only you studied as Kate."<br/>Kate looked over to Princess Amanda and grinned, "No worries your Majesty. She thinks she is queen of the mage school." Kate saw Amanda huff and roll her eyes.<br/>King Atrious held her hands and he stood her up, "I will visit you Katie. I never can refuse an invite from you. By the way, that is a handsome lad you have taken in. Do you like him?"<br/>Kate nodded and whispered, "I love him. We keep that quiet for now." She squeezed his hands and stepped back two paces and quickly took Jasper by the hand. He looked a bit peeked. "Oh gosh. You're sick."<br/>Kate rushed him outside behind the hotel and beside a bush.
