With Mal's crew in Auradon, Ivy is protecting their territory with Morrigan as her second. They've created a temporary crew because two people aren't enough to protect the territory. Uma, Harriet, Diego, and Mordred have lent them some of their crew members, and then Morrigan and Ivy recruited some drifters and several civilian kids. This new crew knows where some of the Dragon safehouses and stash spots are, and Morrigan and Ivy created a few more, but only Morrigan and Ivy know where all of Mal's safehouses are in case Mal decides to disband the extended gang. She won't, but she does want to personally vet everyone before letting them in completely. She knew this was a possibility when she left Ivy in charge and she gave Ivy permission to make decisions like this because Ivy has an excellent head on her shoulders, the vetting is just for Mal's peace of mind
