"Oh? Well, well, I do wonder when my earliest convenience will be. Who knows when I'll even be available? I may work myself to the bone and... fall asleep~" Cador teased, offering a small inside joke between Merlyn and himself. With that strange form of flirting aside, he listened to the others chiming in with their own talents. All things considered, this group possessed more than enough collective ability to start and maintain a nation. The only potential hiccup was Arthur himself, and he now seemed to have a better look on his face. Well, that part clearly had nothing to do with Cador. The Spirit Knight himself offered his skillset, as did Hector and Emilia. Guinevere did the same, but added an interesting and solid piece of advice afterwards.
Arthur was stunned to silence by those final words. Nevertheless, he took in all information given. This group wanted to be made useful? The more he thought about it, the more he could equate things to his own methodology. A position with no work was meaningless. If his boss had given him a random day off, he would at least go through a brief period of questioning his own usefulness. If such a thing had occurred in his earlier days, he'd have all but put in his resignation within a week. "Huh. I actually feel a bit dumb for not thinking of it that way," he said when words finally came to him. Stopping in the middle of the town's primary road, he turned to the others and bowed apologetically. "I didn't mean to make anyone feel unwanted. You've all been through so much, I thought I would be helping you recover. Guinevere is right, though; I'm not even sure how long it would take me to deal with this alone," Arthur explained. He wasn't quite done, but Hector took a moment to interrupt his thought pattern─ albeit for the better. "If I may, I think we would all rather work for our own home. I would personally take it as relief from the virtual slavery that was working in Zuria. A king willing to do any amount of actual work himself is a massive improvement."
That made sense to Arthur. After what they'd all been through prior to his and Merlyn's arrival in Zuria, perhaps working for something useful to all of them would be seen in a positive light. With that potentiality in mind, the blonde 'king' smiled, and even chuckled. "Well, if you insist. In that case... Sir Hector and Sir Dagonet, I'd like the two of you to scout the village. If there are any dangers, mark them, or get rid of them if it isn't too much trouble at the time. There could be people as well, maybe? If there are, please lift their moods and send them to the castle; we should try getting them fed and cared for. Sir Elyan and Sir Cador, if you could accompany Emilia through the castle while she finds out what's needed to make it a decent living space, that would be appreciated. Guinevere, I'm sure you're better at inventory of this scale than I am. You and I can find resources throughout the castle, and if it's fine with you, I'd like to learn how to better consolidate it. Merlyn..." He paused when matters came to the sorceress, looking at the hooded woman and seeming quite... at a loss, as it were. "Merlyn, you... are good for something normal, right?"
