Hy dun tink dot treaty of alliance betveen Tveedle und de monks effer actually got signed. Dey vos yust startink to read it out vhen all hell broke loose downstairs. I'm feeling the same way about that. I also would like to note that Agatha pointed out to Tweedle exactly what she thought of him and his threats.

I didn't take that as him saying he was going to escort her. It came off more as "I'm letting you go to Paris" with the most being him offering her an airship or something. His telling her to be sure to try this meal made it sound like he didn't think he would be there. I stand by him wanting her out of Europa, possibly distracting Gil, while he deals with regaining his lost power. Though their is another reason he might want her in Paris, isn't that where the Storm King came from, or somewhere near it. Might we get to see the castle of enlightenment (I think that's what it was called). It would explain the muses plotline being brought back in. Martellus' comments are a thinly veiled threat, delivered in a very polite tone ("When our enemy is defeated and you are surrounded by my troops - not to mention a properly cowed and grateful order of monks newly allied to my cause by their own pope?"). He points out that he is in control and she has no choice. He is still pursuing the legend - "The Storm King weds the Heterodyne Princess to bring peace to Europa" - to strengthen his position. It's a thinly veiled threat yes. He's making it very clear he is the one in power at the moment. but he is also using it show contrast with his "very generous" allowance to let her leave when all this is done. Something which Agatha really needs to think over, obviously Martellus is getting something from her going to Paris, the question is what. And as much as he is still pursuing the legend, i'm not sure it's his top priority at the moment. Shoving Agatha somewhere safe, and possibly where he has agents to keep an eye on her, Like Paris for instance, might be in his best interest until he has time to figure out the whole wedding thing, and deal with Gil. As for the Monks, no I don't think they have signed it yet. But considering who is Martellus' uncle, as soon as this is all over they likely will be forced to. So that might become a problem later on.

I just view Martellus' "politeness" to Agatha as "you can't escape me, so let's play nice." He's the slimy weasel, not Tarvek.
No, I don't see him "letting" her go to Paris. He is saying I'll "help" you get to Paris, with my troops "to safe guard you". Heh, heh, heh. Martellus has no intention of letting her slip away again. But Krosp is thwarting his plans.
Seriously, after that knee to the groin, he can't possibly think she would not hide from him again. He wants all the symbols of the Storm King and Agatha is one of the biggest.

If you're planning on a big wedding with high fashion and the eyes of the world upon you, there's no better place than Paris, especially with the Master officiating.
That's called making it official.
