The king strode purposefully to his place at the table's head and drew out his chair. Before he seated himself, he nodded to the assembly. "Thank you all for your attendance. It's no secret that dark days are upon us. So," he paused, seated himself, glanced to each of them in turn. "I wish for us to discuss and weigh the current threats to Demacia, and decide upon a course of action."
A leather-gloved hand stroked his mustache as he continued, "Firstly, let us address the unfortunate breaches of the Institute of War." A heavy frown settled over his features. "Long have we trusted that the Institute would enforce peace, but it seems that, increasingly, this task falls to us. We have yet to receive compensation for the Eternal Nightmare's slaughter of our countrymen--or word of his re-capture. We can only assume he is still at large. And how to combat him?" Jarvan III shook his head, glancing briefly to the table in sorrowful contemplation. "Without the mind-guarding magics of summoners, without a perimeter set about the city, it will be difficult to prevent further such infiltrations by a creature of shadow. I have the college in consideration. They can perhaps be called upon to erect a barrier of sorts around our territories--though, this is no small endeavor." The king paused a moment before continuing. "General Starr, I would like for you to oversee this project. Take my request to the college and obtain an estimate of costs, manpower and time."
"In our eternal forward march, we must stomp out evil all across Valoran wherever it may grow. Leave no stone unturned: the roots of one ignored weed will inevitably corrupt the whole of the garden.”

Tahlem listened to the king intently, almost like an owl perched on a branch. He gave a nod when addressed to consult the college, finding it a great idea. The defense against otherworldy beings is essential from what Nocturne had shown the city. " It will be done with haste." Next, he held his hand up to stop the king from speaking further.
" My lord, may i suggest we pull back a few of our summoners from the League? From what i know...they have postponed League matches until further notice on account of Noxus pulling their support. They would be invaluable in the defense of our city should it come to it and i find it a waste to have them just laze around at the Institute."
Jarvan grinned when he heard his father's plan. "Brilliant idea Father!" He hopes to one day be as quick-witted and cleaver as his father. Every man wants to surpass their father's greatness but, he had one huge legacy to live up to. "Yes, the summoners could provide that extra protection that could save this city. Every summoner who is from Demacia is to return immediately and to prepare for battle."
He then turns to the king. "Father, you may be the ultimate target for them. Who knows what they would do if you were to be captured! When the time comes for the battle, you need to take shelter. Let me defend the city." His face is solemn, he knows the king's life is the most important one to preserve.

A gentle smile spread across his features at his son's feverish insistence. He gave a nod to the general, clarifying for the assembly, "We do not have the jurisdiction to command them home--but I do agree Demacian summoners would be an invaluable addition to our defenses. I will seek audience with the High Councilor at once. I've no doubt she will spare us as many as she can." The king heaved a sign before continuing.
"Remember that the Institute is currently dealing with the breach in Freljord. I can scarcely believe it's happened, but the Void pours forth over the frozen north. That takes precedence over everything else." Then the benevolent twinkle of his eyes turned upon his only son. "My son, it is the duty of a king to lead his people to victory. You are valiant and brave, and when you are king, you will do the same. Such is the Demacian way."
Jarvan III turned his shining gaze upon Poppy. "Now, Ambassador, what word from Bandle City? Truth be told, my heart goes out to your people. They must be wary, to be so geographically near Noxus after the unfortunate secession."
"In our eternal forward march, we must stomp out evil all across Valoran wherever it may grow. Leave no stone unturned: the roots of one ignored weed will inevitably corrupt the whole of the garden.”
