Tagali Federation
Victus and Remrayed listened to the description of the Selinian government with some interest. It was an interesting form of government, to say the least. The Crown Prince and the Viceroy both began speaking to each other such that their translators didn't tell the Selinians what they were saying. The private discussion only lasted a few moments, however, as after a moment, Victus smiled slightly as Remrayed decided to speak.
"I'm sure that whenever it is time for dinner or what have you at this gala, that we will be able to exchange more information with each other.", the Viceroy said, keeping his smile.

The Conglomerate
The Board was on holographic display before Ambassadorial Officer Grovak Thaorn. Well, not really; more like, he was in a live holo-screen chat with the Board's silhouettes. The Board of Directors for the Conglomerate, as a whole, were secretive and had secret identities. They were also CEOs of their corporations and subsidiaries as well as owners of any systems or planets that a specific corporation owned and used. The only people who knew the identities of the Board would likely be their corporation's CFO and COO, who both had permission to run things for the CEO in his absence; the CEO sometimes anonymously led his company. The Board was elected into power by their corporations' sub-boards. They did a double-blind voting system to ensure total anonymity of the Board. This kept the mysterious, absolute leadership of the Conglomerate a secret.
"Grovak Thaorn, AO to the United Nations of Sol as well as to the Cho'Dosan Covenant. We want you to invite our friends in those nations to Sayran. Yes, Sayran; our 'official' capital. We're going to be meeting with them, in a sense; with you present, of course, as well as other AOs and the Chief Ambassadorial Officer.", Director Six said. The Board was formed up of about eleven silhouettes by the looks of it. Representing the eleven most powerful corporations in the entire Conglomerate; lesser Corporations negotiated with the Board's corporations, as well as the Board, to get laws passed; but it was entirely up to the Board as a whole. Director Nine's head tilted slightly.
"Oh, and Thaorn? We need the Covenant more than the UNS. The Covenant gives us military protections ontop of the UCAB that we can't afford to lose. Negotiating a mutually beneficial trade and economic deal would benefit us greater, yes; but we cannot accept a dissolution of alliance. So, to make it perfectly clear; if anything goes wrong, your employment will be... terminated. Are we understood?", Nine said. Grovak gulped, nodding heavily. The Board, seemingly satisfied with this answer, shut off communications with the Ambassadorial Officer. Grovak sighed, and began preparing messages to be sent to the respective governments in question. Obviously, they would have separate meeting times close together, so as to not cause a conflict of interest. Once the messages were sent, Grovak found himself boarding a ship and headed to Sayran.
