Ashton would give Cecilia a small nod. “I was originally sent here to deal with you and yours. I am no longer your enemy, but I request I help you in any way I can... I am loyal to the nation, but of its current possible rulers, you are the one I respect the most.” Ashton realized this is a bit sudden, so he does his best to salute and nod. “May I join you, to help make our country a better place? I have officially surrendered to your company, I merely ask that I can help.”
