"I understand that very well, if it would please you you would be welcome to come and view our training to insure that the guard you choose is a fit for yourself. If it would provide a comfort to you as well, you are more than welcome to test our guards against any warrior in your pack." He was very sure of his ways of training, but he did not question her.

"We could also set up private meetings if you wish."

Really just simple things, anything that we may need. The favor would of course be discussed before the guard is let out, and will only be accepted with your approval."
