Perhaps the early hour was to blame for the small gathering.  What Celes really needed to mix things up was a function, a ball of some sort.  But as Jace wishes her a good day and gestures for a guard to escort her wherever she wishes, she realizes that this was a good meeting in many ways.  She officially introduced herself to the King, so no one could say she was slighting him.  Likewise she had two invitations to further potential allies.  Sadly one was a minor house and the other was a foreigner, but it was a good start none the less.<br/><br/>She knew that there was also a massive glass making foundry at the docks area of Londinium.  Her name would carry a lot of weight there.  Plus there was also the mercenaries guild, her platoon would be known by name at that location, plus, there was always a chance for work if she didn't mind getting her hands dirty.  Though that was a double edged sword, because one never knew who was watching and she might not want to tip her hand as such an able combatant just yet.   There was also the family Tudor home, she didn't know how she'd explain herself well enough to get in, but there had to be some clues in the queen's ancestral home.  Likewise, if the Church was backing  King James, the other faiths would make good allies, especially the Shonites, of which she counted herself.   The last thought she had was that the commoners might be suffering under this change in regime, but she wasn't quite sure how to start to tap into the commoners of Londinium as a resource.<br/><br/>Really, it was quite early in the day still, at least an hour or two before noon, and she had a lot of threads she could follow... she just had to decide what might bear the most fruit.
