Alex turned to the Queen and said "well a alliance would benefit both our kingdoms greatly, not just in the war but in trade as well." Alex then smiled and said "After all your kingdom is between us and the biggest port village in the land" Alex's smile then disappeared as he said "though there is another matter that I wish to speak to you about when we have some privacy." Alex had the plan in the back of his head, he needed to get those magic users out of that small village and into the kingdom to help in the war, the only problem, they are in the Queens Kingdom but they swear loyalty to Kaer, which makes them traitors to the Queen.
