"Well your majesty, my father used to say that the Palace is just a battlefield where the soldiers where robes and dresses instead of armor. But you handle yourself well, and I am honored to have your trust." He said as they continued their way towards the kitchen. He chuckled at her comment about chocolate. "I must agree your majesty. I do very much enjoy our chocolate. And my trip was wonderful your majesty, thank you for asking. Marseille is a beautiful place. The state of their court is... well let's say it is fairly hectic. I am a bit concerned for their stability but ultimately I do not believe they are a threat to us, they have far too many internal troubles to deal with at the moment. I also managed to visit a new museum that opened in the city recently. I must say, the artists of Marseille are creative souls."
Edward joined the Empress at her behest at her table as the staff began to serve breakfast, including the tea Edward had provided. "If I may your majesty, there is something I wish to discuss. I'm concerned with the growing instability across the continent. Termain is killing itself in a civil war, Maresille is in an internal power struggle, and I worry the chaos may expand to the other countries as well. Others clearly think more weapons and soldiers are the response. But I think we can take a different route. With the larger kingdoms in turmoil I believe we can step forward as a new leader among the kingdoms, not only for our own interests but to promote peace and stability."
Karl
He smiled in return at Dea's remark. "Well, I am knight after all, I live to serve, especially when its a beautiful noble lady." He quipped back with a smile before she turned to the question of how things were in the palace. He took a seat in a nearby chair "It's fine, well fine as it can be these days. Some bastards in our army burned down a village on the front lines. Tali saw them punished and village compensated, but... this war is wearing on her Dea. It's wearing on us all." He said sighing as he rubbed his face tiredly. "I'm sorry, I don't mean to come here and be gloomy. What have you been working on? It looks interesting and... complicated."

"What if, we brought leaders from all different countries together. Some kind of council? or maybe a fellowship? Regardless, we can be out in front of making connections with a whole generations of new leaders. If you take initiative, involve yourself with the rest of the world, we can not only assure peace but secure a critical role in that peace. Perhaps we start with Termain? This civil war of theirs is nasty business and it threatens to destabilize the world. If we ingratiate ourselves with one side and ensure their victory, we could have a stable partner for generations to come in building new global alliances." Edward said, pausing to take a sip of tea.
Karl
"Wow, turn the tide of the war?" Karl said, certainly interested in something that would end the war faster. "Well it sounds very complicated. But if anyone can figure it out its you Dea. But you're right, selling Tali on it might be more difficult." He said, rising from his chair. "Speaking of that, part of why I came up here is because I had a favor I wanted to ask of you. When I left Tali, she was in one of moods you know. The stare out the window no talking mood. She clearly didn't want me around, but I wanted to see if you could check on her. I think she could use the company." He asked her, pulling her into a soft embrace from behind. "And then... maybe I could come back later tonight?"

"It is messy your majesty, but it will be messier still if this chaos is allowed to spill over into other countries. If the war drags on and sides are taken, the world would be plunged into war. But the conflict is still young, and from my understanding Tali has the upper hand at the moment. The rebels are disorganized and lacking resources. I understand your hesitancy to commit our troops to battle. But if we could offer enough support to end the war quickly, we not only would stop a great deal of bloodshed, but have one of the most powerful leaders in the world in our debt. There are risks your majesty, I cannot deny it. But these are risky times, and I would rather control our own fate than be under the control of others. But, I have spoken my mind your majesty, I will belabor the point no further." He said, taking a bite of toast and a sip of tea.
Tali
Tali got up from her seat and opened the door, seeing Dea outside her chamber. Dea was a close friend of hers, one of her few friends really. Dea spoke her mind to her and Tali found that refreshing. The court was filled with people who wanted to impress and placate her. Dea told Tali the truth and was even able to make her laugh occasionally.
"Come in Dea" She said simply as she opened the door and let her in before closing the door behind her. "Karl sent you I'm guessing. I could tell he was worried about me. I'm fine though Dea, really. You said you have an idea? What is it?"
