She thought it was a great idea, that's why she suggested it. Still, it was better to be cautious. Riku needed to be spending more time with people, that is, Balambites, than he was. He spent all his time with his family, Trabians, or Sora. So much that people hardly knew who he was.
Lord Ryder was able to stand up a bit straighter, then. Alright. Well, wouldn't he be the first to know about the Prince's companion, then? The man that was rumored to be at his side always? Well, he would get to know the man, when no other Balambish Lord knew of him at all. "I can do that, most certainly, Lord Juliette. I...I am very pleased to do that." And in the upcoming battle, he had someone to be beside and protect, like the other boys would protect the Prince.
"Thank you, my Lord." He gave a bow and a kind of smile, feeling much better. "You can trust me, I want to do my best."
