Catedral de Hamunaptra (Cathedral of Hamunaptra) Hamunaptra, Dawinia “...nunc et in hóra mórtis nóstrae. Ámen.” Her Imperial Highness, Carmen Idoya, Infanta of Dawinia, crosses herself and arises from kneeling in front of the cathedral’s grand alter. She curtsies and turns, starting down the isle to the entrance of the cathedral. Before she exists, she dips her finger into one of the fonts and again crosses herself. Entering the awaiting car, her lady-in-waiting immediately starts up conversation. “I trust your prayers were good, Your Highness?” “Yes, thank you. I hope I didn’t keep you long enough,” responded Carmen. “No, of course not, Your Highness! You couldn’t inconvenience me at all!” “Driver, to the Palace, please. Anyway, don’t fret, dear, I’m the nice royal, remember?” They two women laugh, as the driver nods and complies, conducting the car forward down the street, in the mini convoy. They are whisked through the cities busy and winding roads, usually filled with traffic, which wasn’t a problem due to the escorts. In a journey that would usually take 15 minutes, they arrived at the entrance of the palace in about seven minutes. As they barely entered the building, a young man with a folded and partially sealed paper arrives in the path of the Infanta, bowing deeply. “Your Highness,” the man starts, “a letter from the Emperor.” Still bowing, he hands the letter forward to Carmen. She grabs the letter, responding. “Thank you, sir. You may go.” As the man scurries off, Carmen continues her walk, now opening the letter that was given to her, as her lady walked behind a few paces, as tradition dictates. It was a letter addressed to the Kensoian Emperor, penned by Carmen’s father, Emperor Antonío, inquiring to proceed with high-level diplomatic talks between the nations. At first glance, Carmen was confused. Why would she receive a completed letter that’s not addressed to her? In his own hand? She again read it, now sitting on a chair in the grand hall. Then she sees it. Immediately, she jumps up in excitement. “What is it, Your Highness‽” The lady rushes to the aide of Carmen. “The Emperor is allowing me to finally do on a diplomatic mission!” “That’s great news! Come, let’s celebrate with some desserts, but first, we transmit that letter, mkay?.” The lady hooks her arm around the Infanta’s arm and starts to drag her away to the dining room. Letter to Heavenly Emperor Aquila Cyneric Tenskwatawa Lygatto of Kenso

Consus blinks, slightly startled at the dismissal of her guards. After a moment, he waves his hand dismissively, relaxing back in his chair. "It's not a problem. Truthfully, I'm surprised you decided to let them go. Most foreign dignitaries will not go anywhere without their guards. Although I guess this is the second time you've done that since you've arrived." Flashing a brief smile, Consus steeples his hands as he watches Carmen. "From what I know, the Emperor has been quite interested in Dawinia as of late. Whether it's for some special reason or his wanderlust; I know for certain he is interested in your advances in flight. I for one, am simply glad to be able to foster relations with other nations, and especially one that sends such a fair member of the royalty here." Consus's aide coughs a bit, his one good eye shutting briefly as he resists the urge to slap his forehead. Nevertheless, Consus continues to pleasantly smile despite his companion's actions. |

"Well, unlike most other foreign dignitaries, I prefer to deal with important discussions and meetings without prying eyes...but of course my fa--the Emperor sees it differently. I get it, though. He just wants me to be safe." Carmen smiles, ensuring that her response wasn't taken in the negative. However, now blushing to the words of the Prince. "I--it is good that we all are on the same page then." She scrambles in her memory to remember what he had also said, trying to (and somewhat failing) reduce the redness that had gathered in her face; yet again, her body gives her emotions away. "And yes, our adoration of the skies have lead us to what we have today. The innovations that have come out of Dawinia in that field have, I don't mean to sound hubristic. changed the world. And though it benefits everyone, true friends of the Crown benefit even moreso." |

"I understand. Well rather, my younger siblings understand better than I do." The one-eyed officer steps forward, whispering in the Prince's ear. A look of consternation appears on the young man's face, before he nods, a slightly disappointed expression on his face. "I'm afraid that my aide insists we get on topic. So, your Highness, what can Kenso do for you? I'm sure you've noticed that we are highly interested in your space programme and aviation related industries." |

Just as Carmen was to respond, she withholds herself, listening again to his interjection and change of conversational topic. She nods when he finishes his last word. "Of course; hours would have passed before we got to the main items at hand." She laughs to herself before continuing. "Now...it's more of what can we do for one another. Like I mentioned, and so did the Emperor, earlier, we want to foster some good, healthy ties between our nations. If not with trade and/or militaristic agreements, dynastic bonds, as they represent one of the most strongest associations any monarchy can partake in, everso more powerful than a mere treaty." She thinks for a second, remembering what she wanted to respond to the Prince about. "Ah yes, our aerospace-related industry, to what does Kenso aspire to attain? As Aeruña is a Crown Corporation, what we do agree upon here today will be carried out with the Imperial Authority, upon my return to Dawinia." |

Consus nods his head, pursing his lips slightly. "Our desire is to make use of communication satellites. As you may have learned, the terrain in Kenso proves to be a constant challenge to remote areas outside of the largest cities. If possible, we would like Dawinia's assistance in not only sending satellites into space, but also possibly joint research stations. Of course, with Kenso's specialty being in oceanic technology and our desire to explore further into the deepest portions of the oceans, we believe we would have an advantage, and by extension Dawinia." Consus smiles, drumming his hands against the table. "Because of the similar natures of the deep ocean and space, I am sure that we would both benefit from this. that is of course, if Dawinia accepts." The scarred officer steps forward, tapping the Prince on the shoulder and whispers in his ear once again. After a moment, Consus eyes widen and he glances at the man who simply nods. "You speak of dynastic bonds, is that the purpose of your father sending you here?" |

Carmen begins to note along the margins of a paper of the open folder that sits in front of her. "A valid point you bring up, Your Highness. Terrain does present an issue in the field of telecommunications, even now. With that said, I'd be delighted to accept your inquiry. Along with our telecommunication satellites, we do have other variants that we'd be able to afford to Kenso, for it's own uses." She flips over the sheet, continuing to note, now staring away from her writing to the Prince. "However, like you'd probably expect, our designs entail a sort of security to them, and I am, again, elated that you suggest joint research facilities, to which I do agree upon as well. I think that it'll be a great way to share research and information that'll benefit both our nations and to see our both our Governments and people take to one another, although I know that it will be a success first hand. Well, the Emperor speaks of having bonds, other than dynastic, with Kenso, which is a part of why I am here, however, I would say that yes, above all, the Emperor would, at least, aspire to establish dynastic bonds. Like I've previously mentioned before, it is of the utmost understanding between the two sides. And as the reason to allow those of Imperial nobility to marry those within their same station." |

Consus offers a smile to the Infanta, making note of her comments on his datapad. "Fantastic." "I suppose then that you are meant to stay in Kenso if this talk goes well?" Consus fixes Carmen with a speculative, but steely expression. Glancing behind him at the one-eyed man, Consus runs a hand through his hair, a habit he shares with his brother and father. "I assume that is to be expected." |

Carmen was to respond in the negative, contradicting the Prince's question. However, as she thinks over his question, she starts to see a connection with it all. 'Sent here alone...told to forge dynastic ties...damn it; could have just told me! "You know," starts Carmen, slowly, "now that you ask...I think I am to. But..." She pauses, unsure on where to continue. "Please excuse me, but you must admit, this is a bit...different. I guess now, we can fully proceed since, well, we know what's going on now." She laughs, livening up the mood, and trying to dismiss her now-nervousness, with a smile. She can't help but think if she'd done anything 'wrong' while being here; that would spell disaster. |

The Prince offers a somewhat weak smile in return, somewhat uncomfortable with the situation himself. "I'm sure the Emperor knew what we going on when he pulled me away from my unit. It seems that both of us have been thrown Into unfamiliar territory, yes?" Running a hand through his hair again, Consus leans back in his chair. "How do we proceed? It seems we're negotiating our own ties to each other along with our nations." |

Carmen emits a somewhat nervous laugh, before responding to the Prince. "I guess just as before...you have to admit, it's an interesting concept. Untested but still interesting." She pushes her hair away from her face as she thinks. "Well, upon our union, if it is agreed upon, I'll bring the firm guarantee that what we've discussed here today shall be upheld, along with a, I would think, sizable dowry. You're next in line to the throne of Kenso, and I second, and with that, I would think that we would both want, pardon my directness, the offspring of this union to belong to our respective houses, and in the event of us both assuming our respective nation's thrones...these two things are most pertinent, at least now." |

"I see." Consus looks over Carmen for a moment, a look of contemplation on his face. "I suppose we don't get a choice in this do we? I agree to the terms you've set out, and as such so does Kenso." Letting out a sigh, Consus leans back. "What about you? Is there anything you request of Kenso and I in return?" |

"Well, we are not wanting people..." Carmen, successfully, holds back her elation from the Prince's assent to the terms. A few moments ago, she felt a slew of emotions, ranging from nervousness to fear. But now, she's more elated than ever, surprisingly, to herself. "However, I have a thought; will these preparations develop in the Kensoian or Dawinian fashion? And, while we bind our dynasty's, and our nations, together, we hope for a bright and prosperous future. Technological or economical, social or imperial, we only wish for increased cooperation with one another, affirmed with the most binding act a royal can do, with a inter-dynastic union. Blood is thicker than water, thicker than any piece of parchment that can ever come to be." |

"Preferably in Kenso. Not only do we gae facilities that could easily be repurposed for a specific use, we also have an over abundance of labour and a decent supply of materials availabile." The Prince declines to mention the means of obtaining said labour by allowing the refugees to work for a certain amount of time to become citizens in some semblance of a serfdom. "Of course if Dawinia objects we are completely willing to allow the proceedings to occur there. Due to our....partnership, Dawinia has unique access to Kenso manufacturing and research facilities, provided there is a promise that all that is given remains confidential between our two nations." Consus glances behind him at the scare man, who gives him a nod of approval. The Price smiles slightly, before refocusing on the Infanta. "I suppose this brings us to te preparations for your....stay here in Kenso." |

"Agreed, then. It will be interesting to move forward with a Kensoian ceremony. However, I'd be remiss if I did not say that we would have to perform a ceremony of my religion, as is required of me." She pauses for a moment before continuing. "But yes, just as you said Kenso will allow access to their facilities and other peripheries, so shall we. And, of course, before the official commencement of any inter-cooperation, you shall have an agreement signed by the necessary ministers and Emperor, agreeing to both secrecy and security clearance, and violators shall be held to account in their own nations, as is fair. Now, about me, er, us...I'm quite adaptable and skillful to any setting or action that I'm not--I'm fine with whatever we can together come up with. I'm not a high-maintenance royal, as some paint me out to be, truly." |

Consus looks befuddled for a moment at talking about his own wedding preparations, before he composes himself, clearing his throat with a light cough. "How about we have two ceremonies?" The young man's attempt to please his now soon to be wife is probably in vain. Te Prince let's out a sigh thinking of the situation. "Your Highness- excuse me, Carmen... Don't think of this as simply business, or even yourself as simply a bargaining chip. I hope in the future that we do feel as though we are meant for each other. I'm.....sorry you are forced to stay here." |
