Polish Prussian Commonwealth wrote:Two pale-skinned figures trudged through the city, their faces wrapped in scarves to protect against dust, and hands shading their eyes from the sun. One had a rifle slung over his back, the other a pistol holstered by his hip. Both, though, carried wz.34 sabres, marking them as Prussian-Polish natives.
As they neared the school, both took off their scarves. One had slightly Asiatic features, marking him as a Lipka tartar, while the other, while with typical european features, although it was difficult to tell whether he was Prussian or Polish, and even then, where exactly in those two states he came from.
The Lipka turned to the European. "Say, Abu, it's been quite a journey, eh?"
The European nodded. "I wholeheartedly agree, Mohammad. It's time to meet our new brothers in the faith."
They entered the school. Unknown to the Lipka, Abu wasn't the only European around.
A shadow streaked across the city. Darting from one place of cover to the next, a vaguely feminine figure wearing a cloak with a hood rushed through the city. Taking a left, the figure darted into an abandoned housing complex near the school and climbed up.
She opened the door to a long-abandoned apartment and unpacked her gear. A rifle was swiftly assembled-an Mk 11 mod 0, an American DMR famed for it's ability to engage enemies both at range and up close.
As she worked, setting up her base, a bit of sun caught her faded grey uniform, illuminating the patch.

A Rolls-Royce Ghost painted in subtle colors pulled up to the school, the darkly-uniformed driver opening the door with a gloved hand.
Saanvi Anand stepped out of the passenger door, solemnly and quietly, her colorful sari waving in the Middle Eastern wind. The driver handed her her two suitcases, to which she smiled and thanked him, before he sped off.
She greeted the Head of Security with a friendly, youthful smile, knowing the pistols and knife in her undergarments would be overlooked.

Keeping his Škorpion vz. 82 machine pistol close to his side, for all intents and purposes, he looked no different than an ordinary Dancerian tourist. Of course, no Dancerian tourist would linger near a school dedicated to insurgency, especially a Muslim oriented one. But alas, Indir Dimitriadis was left with very few options. Being both Christian and Dancerian, he fully bore a blue band on his right shoulder that told him he was ḏimmī al-injiil, a protected Christian. While less humiliating than a turban, he stealthily wolfed down the last strip of with his left hand, with surprising ease. While not ambidextrous, what little he read up on Muslim customs doubted that he would commit any faux pas. And if he did, then they could stick that complaint up where the sun don't shine.
Gulping down the pork, and his reluctance, he entered into the opulent palace that would be his home...he saw that two other people were waiting in the foyer, and decided to introduce himself. "Ya sas." he greeted in his native Greek. "I'm not late for anything, am I?"

Come to think of it, his smile seemed a little too relieved.
He responded in Middle High German-an old form of German, known to a handful in Prussia-Poland, but nigh-unheard in the rest of the world, besides perhaps Danceria.
"A Christian, eh? I envy you lot. Still miss pork. The name's Stanislaus Vyterski-or Abu-al Fariq, if you prefer. You?"

Mohammad raised an eyebrow. "...who? Never heard of a royal, or even a noble, named Erika. The closest person matching your description would be Princess Annemarie von Hohenzollern-Jagiellon, who is known both at home and abroad for her charity...very well, though."
He went off, leaving Abu with the Greek.
((OOC: Erika isn't well known outside of the Commonwealth, and even within the Commonwealth she's a mere postscript.))

Indir blinked once, twice, then three times, as he gradually translated his sentence into Polish. "I only recognize it from my old lit class." he explained. "Indir Dimitriadis is my name, but you may call me Florian. But I've found as long as you eat pork with your left hand, don't get caught, and don't swap spit with anyone here, you're good." he chuckled. "Good, I was wondering where the dorms were...or where to get a decent map of this place."

A wave of dust cleared as a taxi rolled over to the mansion, stopping.
Handing the driver his due payment and adjusting his gray-rimmed pair of aviator sunglasses, Fathallah Al-Balushi walked out of the car, retrieving his luggage from the trunk and greeting mansion security warmly and casually.
A tan-colored tunic with a leather belt was worn over a simple, blue cotton polo shirt and Rhodesian-style outdoor shorts. A pair of small holsters could be seen under the tunic on his waistband. A gray, featureless field cap was perched on the boy's head.
"How are you all doing?" He greeted a few of the other students, removing his sunglasses.

She bowed slightly. "Thank you, and peace be with you." She responded, both in Arabic and in English, the latter with a slight British accent and the former with a slight stutter.
"Forgive me- I would prefer English, Urdu, or Hindi, the latter my native tongues. I am learning more Arabic, and wish to learn more while I am here." Saanvi spoke, her face bright as she stepped inside.

"Fathallah Al-Balushi. Yemeni-born, but I've been living in Saranidia for some time and I'd say I quite like it." He smiled thinly, eyes drifting slowly over to the pretty Indian at the other side of the room, but kept his focus on Abu. "Interesting- I always thought the Prussian-Poles aren't the most friendly to those of our faith."Mohammad gave a small wave and a smile. "Ishallah, Sister. Are you British?

Saanvi gave a small wave of her own, turning to Mohammad with a friendly smile a bit on the shy side. "Greetings. No, I am Indian-Pakistani, but my own late father knew English well, working for diplomats who bridged Britain and India. The Exodians, however..." She wrinkled her nose a bit at this. "Not the best people, I'm afraid. They haven't been too kind to nations like Saranidia.
On a brighter topic, could you mind enlightening me on the nature of the Lipka Tartars?"
