Lyons was pleased with how Ann dressed him. Not a detail was forgotten, nor hair out of place. Lyons greeted the six families as if he had known them for years. No one said a word out of place toward Jasper. Is was not in the least unusual to have a cat as a bodyguard. Though most were curious to see Lyons with one. At the end of the line was the Royal Family. Lyons knelled before his sovereign though he was the Kings Advisor and closest friend. Both men about the same age and had a son and daughter. There was no queen. As Jasper knelt he caught the eye of Amanda who was about Kate's height with brown hair, brown eyes, and wore a white dress with real gens and a jeweled tiara. King Atrious was in full uniformed regalia with a yellow sash and chest full of medals. Atrious faced Jasper, "Evening Lad. Welcome to the Kingdom of Atria. Your master tells me you suffered hardship and not for Lady Mage Katherine you'd have died. You are one lucky fellow. Kate will be entering the college at my Summer home. I invite you to see me in the Fall. I will have use for your acquired training to help train my elite among elite. The palace guards could use your fighting skills. You could accompany Kate and I am sure arrangements would be made. Think upon this over the next months. I hope you know how lucky you are be in my Goddaughter's family. We will meet again later to discuss your possible future."
