"I think its not a bad idea to start a kingdom of your own, but I think that'd require having a fair deal of resources at hand. Having a lot of competition doesn't help either. Too many people set out at once, any settlers that might follow will not be able to decide which way to go, and you might end up with a dozen ghost-towns with nobody wanting to live there." Speaking up seriously at the time Valen nod his head there then looking at Koko seriously.<br/><br/>"Though establishing a kingdom where nobody can try and abuse the law or claim to be immune to consequences would be a good thing to do, I think that trying to establish one at the wrong time would do more harm than good." He stretched his neck back and then let out a sigh. "Now, if I can be a bit cocky, if you permit me a single day off duty to study my book and work on the magic I've been learning about, I'd gladly then try and help out with anything I can." He looked at her and scratched his cheek.<br/><br/>"Now, I know I got a reward from the people of the settlement but might I abuse my position enough to ask one from you too? A peck on the cheek or a thank you?" He winked, trying to show to her to not be too serious. Besides, he wasn't planning on pushing the issue, just reminding her that he'd be willing to help but not if he'd get treated like a 'resource' himself.
