Meeting at the Castarcian Chancellery (Atmora and ACS only)

[Atmora]

Chancellor jkvr. Lysithea van Hresvelg
Castarcian Chancellery, Castarcia
27 May 2016

Lysithea had just arrived in Castarcia just an hour ago from her nearly six-hour flight from Alexandria to the Castarcian capital to meet with the Castarcian Chancellor Aurelia MacDonald. Two of the youngest sitting heads of government in Halkeginian history along with both sharing political views. The young Atmoran Chancellor wished to use their similarities in politics and perhaps even the closeness the High Queen has to the Castarcian royal family as leverage to strike a deal with the Golden Chancellor. After all Chancellor Hresvelg had greater political aspirations to unite the Halkeginian states into an economic and political union to stamp out Aravean influence into the west.

The Chancellor looked outside the window in her SUV to see the skyline of the Castarcian capital passing by as she neared the Castarcian Chancellery. When they reached their destination the driver had informed Chancellor Hresvelg, Lysithea acknowledge and thanked the driver. Before she stepped out of the SUV she took a good look at the Chancellery but was interrupted when one of her Marchaussee Secret Service agents had opened the door for her. Stepping out of her SUV she looked around to greet one of the Chancellor's staff sent to greet her.

Lysithea stepped forward to give the person a handshake "Greetings, thank you for your hospitality. I look forward to seeing Chancellor MacDonald I have had many great things about her."

The staff member enthusiastically shook the hand of the Atmoran Chancellor, doing their very best to act like they knew exactly what was going on. This most definitely was Chancellor Van Hresvelg, but the young member of staff had no recall of being informed about this planned visit. There must have been some form of miscommunication, unless their boss was deliberately trying to get them to look like an idiot. Nevertheless, whilst their typical daily life as a staff member at the Castarcian Chancellery involved rigorous planning and structured timetables, the art of improvisation was always an important part of any diplomat's arsenal.

"Of course Chancellor van Hresvelg, welcome to Castarcia." they said warmly, offering their hand but allowing their Atmoran superior the privilege of initiating the handshake. "Likewise, we here have been keeping an eye on your career with great excitement and expectations."

After the firm handshake was over and done with, the staff member was quick to invite her inside. Surely, someone by the front would see and know exactly what was going on, take charge and bail them out of this awkward scenario.

The Chancellor shook the hands of the Castarcian civil servants, Hresvelg noticed slightly that she had caught the civil servants off guard. Hresvelg gave a discreet look at her staff, trying to see who messed up with the scheduling for her meeting with Chancellor MacDonald. Hresvelg spoke cordially with a slight smile on her face "Well, in that case, my interest in Chancellor MacDonald has peaked once again."

While Hresvelg did attend university in Castarcia to get her Bachelor's of Economics, during her time she learned English. Hresvelg's English was not perfect for those who pay attention to when she speaks, could hear her slight Karthian accent. Hresvelg made her way into the front entrance of the Chancellery, waiting for the civil servant to show her to the Castarcian Chancellor.
