Speaking of Dilly, though, will he come along to Teressien? Getting him into the Ball will be impossible, but maybe he would like the walkies in the Gardens?
EDIT: And what about Lucas? Might he come along?

Nah it's fine. Indeed it would have been something desvastating for everyone and touch that would be nonsense so Cel can be sure that the only thing she will see with Lise is her title. Which will caught her off guard since she never mentioned her status at Mervay.
Speaking of Dilly and Lucas, Dilly is clear he will be present there and surely the gardens are wonderful for him; Lucas on the other hand... He cannot be present but I will give it a try through since I think I can try to bring him but it would require more people in case.


That would certainly surprise Cel quite a bit. "So... you are like... Royalty?", she would ask. Selkie have a notoriously difficult relationship with that...
As said, the little vulpine can not join the ball itself, but he should be able to frolick a bit. He will not be confined to Lise's quarters, that's for sure! As for Lucas, it's not that simple with him, eh? A shame, that he can't be there... well, it was a good (?) idea.

Issue is that Lucas is... A commoner (Not that the word is used in Modern Day Mervay but that could be the best I could do to define his status in general). His father is the Director-General of the National Crime Agency, like our version of the FBI. Even if that does allow him to enter it would have to be with his father I believe.
Now going with Lise, yeah, she is like Royalty, she is part of the Devienne Family; their title as Dukes is because their history and because the region they are Dukes was their Kingdom, The Kingdom of Ardens. They keep their noble status because the Royal Family allowed them to when Ardens was annexed into Mervay.
Also if Cel finds out about Lise she would still see her as her friend no matter her status right??

Yes, that would be something to prevent him being there, although the Teressians are not that strict with that segregation - see, as examples, Enya and her sisters. Granted, Enya is all but the Fürst's Girlfriend, but we also have common actors and actresses, sportspeople and artists present. Then again, a state ball isn't exactly the best opportunity for a date, so...
That's quite a bit of a backstory. I would love to read it once you've figured it out.
Cel would be a bit miffed about Lise at least not hinting at her being a bit more then a simple girl from Mervay, but that would go away quickly - especially once she sees, that Lise is still the same Lise.

That is quite an interesting question I must say. It depends, but if you ask to me as a tourist I recommend it. I know that our Fascist ideals are not very popular these days and that our Beloved Motherland Krospovia is not a very common tourist destination, but that does not mean that it is not a nice country! If you are coming for the first time I would suggest you start in Krospograd, the capital city. Although during the last years we have been making some extensive urban works in order to construct new government buildings, widen the main avenues, etc, there is still a really interesting historical centre. That is the place where the Krospograd Cathedral (one of our main tourist attractions) is located and where you also can find aristocratic palaces mainly from the 16th to the 19th centuries, typical Krospovian houses from the Medieval Ages, and a wide range of important historical buildings. Once you have visited the capital, you can go through other important cities such as Bracklova (the place where I was born and spent my first 17 years of life), Noruevoky and Groboitchen among others. But if what you are looking for is to relax and be in a quite and calm environment I would propose the countryside, specially the one of the northernmost province of Chernenko where you will find calm small towns and lakes, or the provinces of Kroskov and Darekovik, the regions in where the typical Krospovian forests are found.

I would also like to add that I would be delighted if you came to Krospovia in an official visit in order to consolidate the diplomatic ties between our two nations.

I must admit, that I was confused for a moment, but then I realized: "Oh, you're writing from an IC-perspective!" And to be honest, it sounds interesting... and like your people would feel quite at home, at least from the sights and sounds.
Politically, not so much, but Teressien is, speaking in political ideologies, currently a bit over the place. I'll have to make up my mind and write it all down, what Alrich is and what his Dukes are and what the mainstreams in the population are.

As for a state visit, let's see, if we can organize something.

Is Rule 5 non-negotiable? This is a recently made account and I don't see why RP samples from other accounts can't be applicable, especially when the given sample is quite recent.

Yes, I am aware.

Alright then, forget it. Unreasonable and stringent OP's don't make for enjoyable RP's anyways.

Good day, everyone!
Only four days to go until the party starts and I must admit, that I am already a bit giddy for when it really starts!
I added a few names from Teressien, of young gentlemen, who might be of interested to some of the single ladies in attendance. ; )

However, let's talk music. This is a ball, after all, so dancing is to be expected - ladies, keep your dance cards ready! ; )
The music will mostly be classical, I yet have to look for good pieces (I don't want to use classics like An der schönen, blauen Donau), so if you have any good recommendations, feel free to post them. If you want, we could even turn it into a bit of a cultural joint venture, the orchestra playing dances from the countries of origin of the guests as a small tribute, diplomacy, yadda-yadda-yadda.
The opening dance, danced by Fürst Alrich and his date, as well as other young couples, will be a Polonaise. If you have a young couple, emphasis on young and couple, they can participate, but I would prefer prior notice.

Debutantee:
    [ ] Yes.
    [X] No.

Culinary Concerns: None.

Medical Concerns: None.

Notes:

Jolene is a billionaire business tycoon who is attending this ball with the hopes of making even more potentially powerfull friends and business acquaintances.

EDIT

(OOC: Sorry for the late edit, just felt I should give a slight more background as to why she would end up at such a prestigious event)

Jolene is the owner of Gudfrey's Trading Company, an international inport/export giant who has established offices in 34 foreign nations. Many of these offices has a direct link with the local government, allowing Jolene to rub shoulders with nation leaders. Furthermore her company owns several subsidaries - including the largest Oil Refinery in Port Ember and a massive shipping company, with her ships running most major shipping lanes on the planet.

Socially, Jolene runs in the upper echelom circles of society, as she is the daughter of the current Port Emberian Minister of Trade & Industry and personal friends with the President. She is also on first-name basis with many of the country leaders in which her companies holds offices. Lastly she is a well known antique collector and rare animal conservationalist.

Four days left ... it's starting to get exciting already, eh? And as for single ladies - there might be enough food for all sorts of gossip you can imagine for the ever-busy Shikonjimanese Yellow Press! ;)
Now for music - would this one be a solid option, or is it still too classical/too well-known/too Czech? ^^
For a cultural joint venture/tribute/diplomacy/yadda-yadda, there might be something faster and something more smooth as two options for Shikonjimanese traditional music so far, but I'm gonna look for further options.

Oh, not only for the yellow press of Shikonjima, I would presume - while the corresponding reporters are not invited, a guest list is available and there will be three photographers of the Prince's Court, who will make pictures, so... ; )

The first one is interesting, I'll definitely give it a thought.
The other two are certainly interesting as well. One of the two will be played by the orchestra, in one form or the other. I did stumble across an interesting recording of another song, though, which I am not sure, if it will be fitting. ; )

Of course, the photos taken by the photographers will appear in foreign press as well, both print and digital, so even if foreign reporters won't be present, material for speculations will be up, more than enough - not to mention the opportunity of simply checking the guest list and adding two and two. ^^

Wonderful!
Hm, that one surely sounds interesting, too! While not 'purely' classical, it might be sufficient to find its way to orchestras at similar occasions in Shikonjima, so even if the attribute 'classical' must be amended by the good old phrase 'for a given definition of the term', Shikonjimanese Royals would be very likely to recognize it. ^^

Exactly! Who dances with whom, who laughs about who's jokes, who takes a relaxing stroll through the gardens in the moonlight together... with or without holding hands... it'll certainly be important!

I would not doubt it.
Though if the Palace of Zyng's orchestra (it's actually the philharmonic orchestra of Zyng, the city) will do the dance number is another question! ; )

Of course! After all, this can easily result in future state visits, and I'm sure, that this may be good to know for many people - not only for commuters in Nashinya having to plan alternative routes in order to get to work and school. ;)

I'm sure, they will at least find something to play that Shikonjimanese would easily recognize, and know how to dance to. ^^

I have yet to plan the protocol for State Visits to Teressien and the grand entrance, that goes along with it, but I already know, that these things will happen on free days, at least for high-ranked guests, who are likely to have the population's affection, so that people of all ages can line the streets and wave little/medium-sized/big flags.

When in doubt, standard dances. ; )

Yeah, I vaguely remember to have planned something along those lines a while ago for a 'mysterious other place', but I somewhat never got beyond the planning phase. Might as well resume those plannings, for you never know what happens ... at least, Fun With Flags sounds like a solid plan to begin with ...

Indeed, like in dancing school ages ago, but trying to look a tiny bit less ridiculous than back then! ^^

Always the little starts are those, which matter - for those are the ones, which lead to greatness!

Oh, please don't remind me of my dancing lessons...

This, and therefore, logically, the other way round - the first impression is the easiest one to mess up, hence why it requires extra accuracy in planning.

Yeah, it's an era that should be forgotten about, so ... this is going to work fine. For sure!
(And if not, we all have something to laugh. Might not be bad, either.)

Exactly. Hence why this ball is carefully planned.

Indeed... let's change the topic. Planned for the evening, in the ways of dances, are:
    1. The Opening Polonaise.
    2. A Polka.
    3. Another Polka.
    4. A Waltz.
    -----Intermission: Teressian Premiere of Bedřich Smetana, Moldau.-----
    5. Quadrille-Française.
    6. Polka.
    7. A Selkie-Polka: Most likely something along these lines.
    8. A Waltz.
    -----Intermission-----
    9. Quadrille-Lanciers.
    10. Dance of the Housemaids: This one is a dance brought forth by the Hausmädchen of Schloss Zyng, the guests being invited to dance along. However, the main focus rests on the House Maids.
    11. Waltz.
With a few exceptions, I am still open for suggestions.

Thank you. I must admit, though, that most articles are more like basic frameworks, so... I have much to do.
