(Organic RP)Bold Beginnings(Attention Chernigov)

[Frankia]

Samarkand

 

Leroy Marlek had been on the Aral Fellowship Board from the beginning of Frankian settlement on Orbis; his investment had played a large part in constructing the much needed infrastructure to meet Imperial regulations for a chartered colony. Now, he would serve the colony in another way; by being selected by the Assembly with the Governor's approval to serve as an envoy to the Chernigovian holding in the Ukraine. True enough, relations between the two powers had not always been peachy; a war had nearly begun sometime before which would have likely found Frankia alone against the great powers of this world. Fortunately, Governor Wylanna's had called for the stand down order which save the colony from obliteration. 

Peaceful cooperation and exchange with her neighbors was the order of the day in the Governor's council, and no greater project had been thought possible than the establishment of a canal that might link the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea. Such a project would require the Chernigovian government's cooperation as well as the allowance of Royal Engineers the right to enter their territory. Investment capital for the project had been approved by the Grand Aralian Assembly of Guildiers that saw such in the canal the chance for a public works program that would boost the economic might of both Frankia and her neighbors through peaceful cooperation. 

Before Marlek's arrival the Frankian government would of course announce its intentions, as well as a request to establish an embassy in Kiev to discuss matters relating to economic or regional issues that might arise in the future. The Chernigovians, despite their partaking in certain heresies that certain Fleetlords might not approve of, would find an offer for them to establish an embassy in Samarkand at the Aralian Fellowship's expense.

Hmm... We accept this offer for an embassy.

Samarkand

The news that Chernigov had accepted the offer was met with sublime satisfaction by the Aralian Fellowship which proceeded to spend lavishly on the embassy's construction. Guildiers from Guild 2910 were contracted for the project after clearance had been granted by the Samarkand Construction Commission. Such a contract was bound to make or break a Guild's reputation to future contractors, and thus, the skilled workmen went about their business to guarantee that Guild 2910's might not be sullied by shoddy work. The Chernigovian embassy rose quickly within the Wissgarr Quarter without disturbing nearby commuters who might inundate city hall with complaints about traffic delays or excessive noise. The embassy was built by the book; with a focus on requisite guaranteeing space and plush accommodations for those Chernivogivians assigned to staff the embassy.

The Chernigovians would find themselves wanting for nothing in regards to entertainment; a recreation center, access to a vast digital library, and a great hall stocked with the finest liquors that might be required for visits by Frankian officials if they should choose to stop in for official business. Though little was known of Chernigovian religious practices, a wing of the embassy had been designated for religious purposes in the event that the Chernigovian ambassador should prove affectionate to whatever gods that he might fancy. With all this would come diplomatic immunity and the right for the Chernigovians to partake in certain activities that were excluded to the non-privileged orders of the city. 

Kiev

The shuttle trip to Kiev had been proven to be a dull affair to Marlek as he looked over the Foreign Affairs' report on Chernigov with a key eye on the details. Their political institutions seemed tolerable by his standards, though Marlek, like most Frankians, had a certain bias for monarchy. Over the intercom he could hear the pilot radio the Chernigovian civil authority to notify them of their arrival.
