<div align="center">Tiagar</div><br/>Looking at Bryn with a slightly puzzled expression Tiagar replies, “I am sorry, Bryn, I was not trying to be formal with my speech. I guess I simply have a different understanding of casual conversation then you do. Spending most of my time out in the wilderness and away from high courts, I have actually been accused of being rather uncouth for formal court situations. I admit that I may have embellished a little simply due to the fact that I find you to be a very attractive and interesting woman, for the most part though you have gotten my most casual conversation. I will indev … do my best to copy your speech patterns in the future, if that is what you pref… that’s how you’d like it. It will take some getting used to and you’ll probably have to remind me or even correct me from time to time.”<br/><br/><div align="center">Kyle</div><br/>Remaining silent for a short time Kyle ponders what both of the elves had said.  “I’m not sure what you mean sounds worse then what you have in this world, whether you mean what Bryn does or her targets. She has saved a lot of civilians from death and suffering.” Sparing a quick glance at Giselle as he drives he says, “Of course there are good things about my world. For starters most of the people in my world have never held a gun and have had no need to. Giselle, you met my mother, she is a good example of what people can be like. Yeah there are those that aren’t that nice and welcoming, but I’m sure you have that here in this world too. Even in the country torn apart by war I have many of the citizens there that are friendly and some that I even consider friends. This other country has never had the same luxuries that we in my country have come to expect and it is a true pleasure to see how their faces light up when we give them some simple sweet treats that we take for granted here. I know you wouldn’t try ice cream, but you need to try a chocolate bar, I’ll get you one as soon as I can.”<br/><br/>Pulling in behind a line of vehicles being stopped a couple blocks from by a uniformed police officer, Kyle watches as the officer directs cars into parking spots. “It looks like the whole is showing up for this meeting and we are going to have a bit of a walk to the school.” However when they reach the officer, he takes one look at Kyle and his passengers and waves them on towards the school. Seeing Bryn and Tiagar he waves them through as well. Pulling into the school parking lot another officer directs them into a VIP parking area and are given spots alongside official city vehicles.<br/><br/>Before the jeep even comes to a complete stop, a woman in her mid twenties dressed a nice skirt suit, which Kyle recognizes as one of the mayor’s aids, approaches him. “Good evening Mr. Flanagin? That is who you are correct? Please follow me you and your companions will be given seats on the stage.” Looking over at Bryn and Tiagar she adds in louder voice, “Anybody that represents our new neighbors will also be seated on the stage, please follow me.”<br/><br/>After shutting the engine off and applying the hand break, Kyle steps out of the jeep saying, “That is correct, but Mr. Flanagin is my father. I’m Sergeant Flanagin, but I prefer just Kyle. My companions are the Princess Viviana Valerian, Giselle and David Do’Urden. In the other Jeep is Phaerbryn Gowan and Tiagar Strytaimos.” He follows her into the stadium and up to the stage set up in the center of one of the end zones. The entire field is filled with folding chairs which are mostly filled as is the rest of the stadium seating.<br/><br/>The aid walks up to the mayor and speaks quietly with him quickly. The mayor gets a bright smile on his face and practically runs to Kyle. “I am so glad you decided to join us Sergeant and bring your knew friends. Please all of you set in the front row, the council members can set in the back. We will be getting this meeting started shortly.”<br/><br/>Moving over to the chairs set up the aid says, “Here, Kyle you can set next to me,” as she indicates a seat.<br/><br/>Kyle smiles and replies, “I appreciate the gesture, but I think the Princess should have that seat, as she is an official representative of the nation we now find ourselves within the borders of.” He then positions himself to set between Giselle and David. He leans in close to Giselle to make sure she can hear him over the noise of so many people in such close quarters. “Is David going to be able to understand English?” Switching his attention to Viviana he asks, “Your Highness, are you still able to understand our language?”
