[Yuan probably draws the line at Zelos moving into the library. There are no beds there, and the books do not make excellent pillows. Further, he suspects that he would then never have peace, ever again.]

Hm. You might be interested to research when the Papal Knights began.

[That's a bit absent. Of more prevalence right now is the fact that Zelos is asking him for help.]

[And Yuan-- can't let him die. The Pope will try again.]

...for now, be exceptionally careful. Go nowhere without a guard. [Considers.] Or me, I suppose, but that will open you up to a different kind of danger.

Typically, you would either remove the threat -- currently impossible -- or find some benefit you can grant which will outweigh the relative trouble and repercussions of having you killed. However, given the great risks associated with assassinating you in the first place...

[Yuan frowns, heavily. His grasp of this kind of politics was initially limited to navigating the army; and later, Kratos always seemed to have the better hand for it.]

No. Right now, waiting is the only move you can make. Waiting, and taking extra precautions. We-- you will need to see what move he makes next.

I doubt, however, that an attempted assassination of the Chosen will go unnoticed by higher powers.

[Said without a trace of irony thanks to long, long practice.]
