Friendship and Amity between the Federation and the Realm
Part of a series on Embassy Exchange Programme of Yohannes
Princess Elisabeth[1] still could not find her way around Parliament House. She was filled with awe at the intricacies of politicking and the intimidating pillars across the far side of its chamber, a place where the ruling class could impose their will on the oppressed masses. Being young did not embarrass Elisabeth at that moment, because she was an heir to the throne of the largest state in Yohannes; but as a very inexperienced diplomat, the princess whom her father had chosen to fill the seat of a purely ceremonial office, she now found it difficult to be taken seriously. The Beltway insiders could not acknowledge her and her experience in their analysis, and the foreign diplomats too looked at her with amusement and curiosity.
She would meet one of them today. The Government of Saarkon had established an embassy here.[2] The diplomatic mission of Ambassador Janek Kenske was located just three streets away, on the other side of Parliament Square. He would be here soon. The visit should begin with some small talk. Trade and capital flows between the Federation and the Realm next year would be welcome news to the governments of both countries.
Standing around the main entrance and visitor centre, Elisabeth waited for him to arrive.
