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

Carmen only smiles, as she responds. "Please don't be; even if I wasn't forced, if I may be so blunt, I wouldn't have left, well so hastily, anyway." She sighs. "There's a saying from the north that seems to still hold truth to this day. Deure abans que el plaer. Per honrar a la primera, la segona, vindrà en el moment oportú, which means 'duty before pleasure. To honor the first, the second will come in due time.' I knew that this is how it would be for me-- your words are most comforting and I thank you. And two ceremonies...that's a completely acceptable solution; might as well get this off to a good start and not anger the families, well, family." |

Consus nods his head, before clearing his throat. Rising to his feet, he awkwardly extends his hand in front of him, before bowing at the waist in an odd combination of a handshake and a bow that only youth exposed to Western culture seem to be able to do. "Thank you for coming to Kenso. We agree to all the terms." Consus peeks up for a moment, before looking straight back down, his face slightly flushed. "I uh.....look forward to the union between our nations...and us...." Behind the Prince, the scarred man facepalms, despite him following his Prince's lead and bowing also. |

"And thank you for the opportunity.," responded Carmen, as she too rose from her seat and returns the handshake, curtsying. Returning to a normal stance, she fixes her dress, proceeding to respond. "Both I and, I know my father, the Emperor, will be most elated with this. Even with our now inevitable union, to which I too look forward." She flashes a warm smile. "But first, I must return to Dawinia, to elaborate on what's taken place here. Although it could wait, these things must be discussed in person with his person. It's more easier said than done, sadly." She makes her way to the door, turning around for only but a moment, before she exits to regroup with her awaiting guards, to escort her back to her plane. All smiles, she continues onward, back on her way to Dawinia for soon, she'll have another place to call home. |
