James froze in attention behind Kayle as Jarvan approached, feeling fairly diminished in stature besides all the elite troops. He didn't say anything, instead just standing at the ready for any orders his majesty may give him. On the inside, though, he felt like he was going to have a heart attack; this was very important.
I will meet one someday...and that day will either be the best or worst day of my life.

The prince dismissed his guards with a wave, still holding his helm in one hand while smoothing back his hair with the other. He glanced at Marker momentarily but decided to say nothing, simply nodding in acknowledgement. Kayle spoke, those wings hinting at their full span with a small stretch. The emotionless expression on her fair features left him clueless as to the nature of her visit, and that made him uncomfortable. Was this a political matter or a... personal favor?
"No you haven't.. intruded. You're simply unexpected. Please, tell me how I can be of service."

Kayle took a moment to look around the grounds once again, images of her home flashing before her eyes. Demacia had always reminded her of home, and thus she felt attached to it, she wished to protect it, to at least have some purpose outside of serving the summoners.
Kayle looked back to Jarvan, her eyes looking off to the side for a moment, as if she wasn't quite done with her thinking. "Demacia reminds me so much of my world." She said, looking back up to meet Jarvan's eyes. Her face was unreadable, but her eyes had sense of longing in them. "And it is for that reason that I wish to live in it's walls. If you will allow it." Kayle then said, pausing and waiting for an answer.

James blinked a bit, glancing at Kayle for a moment before turning back to Jarvan with a slightly proud smile. This was a development; Kayle would certainly be an honor to have in the city.

The sun shone down from directly above, reflecting off the armor and weapons of the guards. Jarvan IV felt its warmth as he watched Kayle, a being from another world, compare Demacia to her home. The light fell differently on her. Perhaps it was her wings, or the make of her armor, but she seemed to glow in the midday sun. The Prince's eyes went wide when she presented her question. Live in the city? Her sister had taken residence in Noxus almost immediately after arriving in Valoran. Kayle had agreed to serve the Institute of War, rarely visiting the city but for League required errands. Jarvan IV had always seen her as a kindred spirit. What he knew of her past echoed of his own worlds struggles. Grinning he stood straighter, taking a deep breath before he spoke.
"If it pleases you to live in my city, then you are welcome. So long as the Institute of War cannot intervene, we would have you gladly. Do you foresee any difficulty?"

The Judicatior inclined her head in thanks to the prince, a tiny smile playing at her lips. "So long as I am here, you have my word that the Institute will not interfere with Demacia without your consent." Kayle replied, brushing a few strands of her golden hair from her face. "There is one more thing I ask, I have read about and researched Demacia, but I have rarely walked within it. If someone would give me a tour, I would be grateful"

James blinked a bit as the Judicator mentioned her need of a guide. He swallowed hard and decided now was as good a time as any to take his leave, unless Jarvan had any further need of him. He backed up slowly, still in attention but hopefully not attracting his majesty's attention at that.

"A tour?" It was a request easily granted, and better that she see have a better sense of the city before she committed to living in it. "Perhaps afterwards we should speak about where you would like to live. I'll extend my help to you in finding a place where you feel comfortable." Jarvan IV fixed his eye's on the soldier who had begun to back away from their conversation. It was to be expected for him to shy away from where he might not be wanted, but this was a moment where he could be useful. The Prince was one to give those showing themselves attentive and hardworking every opportunity to prove their worth. It was a small task. "I could have someone, anyone, to show you the city. Has this soldier been helpful to you so far? Would you have him show you the city?" He spoke the words casually, but addressed her would be guide with a serious tone. "Your name and rank."

James froze and snapped to attention, saluting Jarvan precisely. "James Marker, sir, second lieutenant in the Fire Company." He put his arms at his side and stood still. He'd thought that Jarvan would have someone better to lead Kayle about, but now that he was thinking straight he realized even a common thug could do the job.

Kayle glanced back at James. "He has been acceptable." Kayle replied to Jarvan, looking back at the prince. "If he wishes to be my guide, then I have no qualms with it." Kayle then replied, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Then Lieutenant Marker you have your assignment. See that Champion Kayle has what she needs. The marketplaces, the college of magic grounds, wherever fancy takes you." He gave his attention to The Judicator, still surprised at her request but emboldened. "If you wish to see the Royal Palace at some point I will show it to you myself! Marker. See that you both return to the palace grounds and have yourself called to my attention this evening. That is all." The bow he gave Kayle was modest, but much more than most champions from other lands. With that he released them both to see the city as the lady wished.

James nodded to Jarvan formally. "Yes sir. I'll do my best to show ma'am around, sir." He turned to Kayle and began walking with her to the gates of the training grounds. Adjusting his collar, James adopted a less formal air about her and smiled a bit. "I suppose it's my honor to be your guide, Kayle. So..." He stood in front of her. "...is there anything that may interest you, or shall I guide you as I see fit?"

Kayle followed James when he walked away, raising a brow when he addressed him. "There is no where specific I would like to be, so you may show me as you see fit." Kayle replied.

He thought a moment before nodding with an idea. "I suppose you may enjoy the college library. I certainly do." He began to lead her there, stepping alongside her.

Kayle followed James around Demacia for most of the day, taking in every detail and things she might like to further experience on her own. For now, however, the two found themselves back on palace grounds. Kayle simply stood beside James and waited for Jarvan.
