*Lifyre lifts the steak knife off the table and weighs it in his hand like a practiced thrower. Leans over and murmurs to the Kestrel rep, loud enough to be overheard by the Demarchia's Rep.*

Think that I could get this to stick out of Arthur's forehead? Or should I just aim for his voice box?

"The way he laughs I'd say your best bet would to aim at the throat."
The rep then takes a look around at the gathered leaders and shakes his head.
"Actually you would probably want to hold on to that.Save it for the bigger fish."

"Stop putting yourself down like that. I'm sure the government will benefit under your gentle hand." Cecily smiles, returning to Blue's shoulder. She then offers a slight wink, tilting her head to the side. "If your.. Council... ever needs to be... 'dissolved'... I suppose I could offer some assistance in the matter." Blue turns his head to look at her, blinking. "Milady?" He then nods, knowing her look of seriousness on the matter, and smiles a bit himself. "Yes. We could assist, sir." Blue touches his hand to Ez's forehead and unbows his head. "Come on now. Enough with that."

Cecily nods and folds her arms. "An alliance, you'd wish to speak of, I'm assuming? Know now that our borders would be open to yours, provided there is no damage to the territory or peoples. Free trade, and I suppose tourists..." She smiles, sitting down now. "And I'd assume we'd be given free reign on poachers and such sneaking across the nation lines. I believe the border guard have caught a few and have their heads on pikes as warnings."

Ezelek sighed, groaning to himself, covering the right side of his face with a gloved hand, he shook his head in disappointment.

"Yes... Of course. If my people step foot into your land, then your laws shall govern them, as is what is right. But, you must know, I expect the same... If any cross the border, looking for the simple pleasure of killing... I will protect my people. That is the only reason I accepted this position. To protect."

He paled slightly at the suggestion of assisinating the Council, taking a step back. "M'Lady... That would be... immoral. It is not upto me to decide that the Council should be removed as such... If I did so, would not that make me like the former ruler? Would I not eventually decide what is right without council, and become twisted like he did?"

Blue shrugs slightly, as does Cecily, though only she speaks now. "I am merely saying that this Council of yours thinks only of themselves. You wish to help the people, they wish to just benefit. Is it not them who are immoral? You could easily dispose of them and replace them with more like-minded individuals... or even if you wish, I could provide assitance either myself or with another of my kind." She sighs a little and then nods at his other statement. "Your lands will be safe. My people don't often tread onto other lands unless by my direction."

Ezelek sighed, nodding his head slightly, adjusting his gloves, the leather creaking under his grip.

"You're probably right... Things were much simpler in the old days. I mean, it was easy, with the old Dictator." Reaching into his coat, he pulled out an old silver revolver, the gun that currently was the symbol on the Elcadia flag. "Take out the guards, take out him. And it was right. Because they'd killed people, for pleasure. But the Council...? They've done it, legally... They're not black, or white... They're grey. How do I judge a grey situation? Is my own instinct enough for me to base a decision that will effect an entire nation on?" He smiled slightly at the suggestion by Cecily. "A Fairy counciler? That does sound like a good idea... No offense, M'Lady, but around you, I am not sure I could keep a clear head, as your great presence seems to bring back my childhood infatuation."

(the doors to the meeting room open and in walks a cloaked figure)

Greetings. I am His Excellency Sim. I represent the Holy Empire of Simalucrum.

(Sim approaches the table and takes his seat)

Now, where were we?

/A messenger knocks on the door of the dinning room./Stepping foward he unrolls a parchment.

M(essenger): Lord Actor Actornicus, herby sends his apologies. And regrets his unfortunate absense from these procedings. In his stead he sends the Foreign Minister Lady Martina Actornicus.

/The messenger then about faces, walking out of the room.
/Lady Martina Actornicus walks into the room and assumes the seat reserved for her cousin.

M(artina): My dear ministers, how are you all, its so very good to be here tonight, I apologise for my brothers failure to be here.

*Someone*: I thought you were cousins.

/Martina sends them a dirty look.
M: We are a close family good sir.

OT: Actornica is a despotic dictatorship run by several generations of the same family. They aren't inbred in fact they are mostly steril due to their work in nuclear research and the current ruling generation are all adopted.

(short description of Poena: Imposing woman of above average height, wears full leather armor and carries a large mallet with her (Held in her left hand). Any half-assed mage would notice an aura of magic about her... Direct and powerful. Pleasant...unless you offend her. Somewhat unassuming and not haughty at all. Must stop now before description gets longer.)

Poena, delegate for the Federation of P51mus, rises from her seat and walks over to Alice.

She bows to Alice: "I am afraid the Grand Magi has declined to attend the meeting personally. He rarely attends such functions because he feels he lacks the diplomatic skill necessary, and has instead instilled me with full diplomatic powers. I will sign your treaty, as my signature holds the same strength as his in these situations."

She takes the quill and parchment, makes a small slice into her finger just enough to sign the parchment and does so.

Next to the bloody, yet unrunning, signature a key symbol with a 1 above it appears with a very faint sideways 8 (infinity symbol) under it.

Oddly enough, after signing the parchment Poena turns to her shoulder as if she's listening to something sitting there.

She hands the parchment back to Alice, and anyone who for some odd reason happens to be looking at Poena's cut finger notices a slight glow as the cut heals over, leaving the finger looking as if it had never been cut in the first place.

"I look forward to the relations between our countries. Our astral embassy has been established in your kingdom and the doorway permanently installed in the castle of the Federation High Council. I think our nations could learn much from each other."


Edit: very very slight correction, hardly noticeable

Slowly re-animating as Poena draws nearer, Alice finally lets go of the tea cup. Smiling to the tall (Alice <b>is</b> sitting, after all) woman, and taking the parchment in one hand, she touches Poena's hand with her other. "Well met, Poena. I have already been conversing with your Embassador and the Grand Magi... is an interesting man." Chuckling, "With quite the sense of humor. Thank you."

Alice places the parchment on the center of the table in front of her, but as she retracts her hand, she once again freezes.

Cecily seems to blush lightly, smiling and chuckling quietly. "Nay, if such bothers you, I would be able to provide different advisors. One such as Blue here, perhaps. Or another fairy? Whichever you would prefer. An Orcish advisor could be arranged, but such an idea could be disastrous. Its been tried, and failed..." she says with a sigh. "But if I would disturb your thinking, and you would accept such an offer, other advisors could be arranged." Blue nods and smiles, speaking now. "Verily. Your country would benefit by your hand, if you deal with your people as well as you deal with those such as Lady Cecily and I."

Grinning, Ezelek took a slight step back, before sweeping his coat out, bowing again.

"I am honoured by your kindness, M'Lord, M'Lady. No favours has my country ever done for yours... In fact, it seems to bring nothing but trouble, and you offer help, so. I am eternally in your debt." He said smoothly, again brushing some hair out of his eyes. "And verily, I would truly consider your offer as yourself, M'lady, as an advisor... But I would not to take any of your time from ruling your own nation. Surely you'd have many more important matters to attend to, then to help me with my trivial problems."

Warsmith Ironsfist sits at his place at the table, few daring to approach the massive warrior due to the dark energys that he is emitting. He plots what he shall do in th future and how to achive it. One thing that keeps reoccurring is the need for others to support him with his plans, and that means he will need to alliances with some of the other nations present. Few are here that he could trust or use, but one has made itself known to him, and he shall make the most of it. He rasies from his seat and goes over to the young ruler of Wunderland.

Old friend, I fear for our nations, I fear for the safety of our people. As we speak others could be gathering strengh against other nations, and though this may not affect us directly, indirectly it could cause great damage to our relativly small nations. Therefore I propose that we unite as allies. I will gladly offer the support of my armies and anything else that could help you in a time of need I only ask that in a time of need of my own you would do the same to me as I would to you...

As he is saying this he's 3 limbs are being used to help make his point with large gestures.

So, what do you think?

Alice jerks awake just after Ironsfist stops talking. With a straight face herself, Alice quicky rambles, "Pardon? Could repeat you please that straight with a face?" She shakes her head, "Sorry bout her." Leaning her head to the side, in a style very remanicient of the Treatymaker signers, she nods before continuing, "Eb here says you want an alliance? I do not believe I would require your help if I was to be invaded, but security is nice."

Expression changing once more, an entirely new tone and inflection raising in her voice, "Good sir, they would quickly loose their heads! However, if thou ever require our help, in any matter..." Alice leans over and whispers into Warsmith's ear, and finally leans back in her chair comfortably. Her eyes remain quite focused, glancing around at the various conversations. Smoothing out creases in her dress, for the first time the people nearest her can notice blood splatters on the once white apron, and strange runes sewen into the pockets.

(OoC Ed: stupid freaking signature... won't go away! Ooh... PM.)

*Fungus the lizard has been slumbering, but awakes suddenly. Standing still for a few seconds, it appears to be concentrating. It turns towards its master, who is looking at it. Immanio then rises, and starts speaking.

"Honored representatives. I have just received a message that the Dominion of Lacerta Mycopa has been accepted as a member of the United Nations. It is our hope that peace and cooperation will reign between the nations of Expataria, enabling trade and enlightenment."

Sitting down, Immanio leans back into his chair. Seconds later, his eyes seem to unfocus, as he stares at a candle on the table in front of him.*

Kim positions himself near Brian, who seems displeased by the economic status of his country. He gestures with his head at the Wunderlan emisiary and the old warrior from the Empire.

"This does not bode well... It seems the coorporate slavepits of Valenzuela are the least of our worries. Your people make their own choices, but we will not sign ANY contract of that sort, especially not when we have our names next to the empire of Warsmith Ironfist. And the girl... as far as we know, there IS noone in her country that can be surpressed, but I'm suspicious of her.""

Slightly uncomforatable- though he genuinely likes the representative of Demarchia (to a point,) he has business- Santiago takes a temporarily vacant seat next to Demarchia for a moment.

"Friend...more terrorists originating in your country have been caught trying to free commies. Though we have ideological differences, I am sure you can respect any democratic nation's rights. We are still waiting for some sort of payment from the last attack. Already public opinion is swaying twords the notion that some of this is encouraged by your government.

I need to request you arrange some sort of compensation...soon. Anything not labor credits will suffice- materials, Grats, whatever. But our good faith in Demarchia is waning. If we do not recieve payment- now at 15,000 Santis- within 2 weeks, we will be forced to take action to ensure the safety of the Valenzeulian economy."

To Rand, he speaks as well,

"Nothing to worry about, my red friend. Any who deal with dictators will be revealed for what they are soon enough. I am not worried about trouble in this area- for hell's sakes you've got the two biggest armies in the region keeping the peace around here!"

He moves back to his seat, talking with the emissary for Goldland for a while, chit-chatting about nothing.

(His Excellency Sim is seated, watching the happenings unfold, and furiously scribbling in a leather bound book. Suddnely, he raises his head. His eyes turn a shimmering blue hue. After a few minutes of mummbling, his eyes return to their normal state. He stands and closes his book)

The Holy Empire of Simalucrum, as part of it's on-going quest for knowledge, has decided that this treaty proposed by Alice of Wunderland is worthy of further investigation. Therefore it is my duty to plege our nation to its tenets.

(Sim walks towards the parchement and grabs the quill. He then reaches into his robes and produces a dagger. No simple dagger, but rather its handle is crafted from gold and is adorned with an odd spherical polyhedron, and the letters "R.B.F" engraved in the blade. He slices a small cut into his left palm and dips the quill into it.)

With this act I pledge our allegiance and abilties to this treaty.

(Sim scrawls "His Excellency and Fifth Incarnation of Sim" upon the parchement. As he returns the quill to Alice, the observant will notice a small key appear by his name with the number 9 above it. Sim pauses and glance over his shoulder, then looks forward off into some distant place. He shudders, shrugs, and then returns to his seat)

Now to see where this shall lead...

(Sim's eyes turn blue again as he begins to mummble once more. This time he holds his left hand up and the wound seems to heal.)

A few random announcements are circulating through the table- progress of the joint military training of Goldland and Valenzeula, talk of a foreign exchange program between Demarchian and Valenzeulan schools, and news of another terrorist attack on Valenzeula, costing another 3,000 Santis.

"Demarchia is currently voting on a proposal to create a foreign exchange program on all levels for the students of Valenzeula. We at the Valenzeulan government are very exited about this, and will be happy to particpate.

The joint exercises between Goldland and Valenzeula are progressing in scheduel. If it continues like this, the exercises should be over within a month. That is all."

Kim answers Santiago's remark with a coldness that is borderline venomous.

"That is as reassuring...'friend' as telling that your chickens are well protected from the wolves by two foxes." he throws a glance at the representative of Goldland. "Warsmith Ironfist is a brutal tyrant, and one can only hope his rule will soon fall, and all that support him will fall with him"

The last was said in a loud tone of voice. Kim had carefully chosen the remark as NOT to suggest Plebiana would be the one to administer that fall in the near future, but to properly express the general tone of voice among Plebiana's many council tables. The last remark included a glare at the mysterious girl.
