Cimmeria, post Crown Conflict

Amélia was listening to the statement from Ivan and thinking to herself, "I'm never going to hear of it now from Sofia since her little rant was spot on with the Cogorians sending a representative instead of a government leader." She shook her head and after acknowledging the statement from Senhor Gogorovich, Amélia motioned for everyone to sit around the conference room table where copies of the treaty had already been laid out by her second in command, one in Cogorian for Senhor Gogorovich, one in Mercanti for Senhor Staedtler and one for herself in Merilia. Amélia addressed everyone in Mercanti, the one language she knew both could understand, "now, what you have in front of you is a very short peace treaty in your nations language that will bring about an end to the hostilities of the Crown Conflict and revert everything to a state of status quo ante bellum. This will end the war in a stalemate with neither side claiming victory but it will allow you both to head home and begin the process of rebuilding your nation and looking towards a brighter future. Please read over the treaty and should you have no objections, go ahead and sign your copy and then pass them over so the others here can sign as well."

Staedtler read over the copy of the treaty, and knew just what had to be done. He sat there in silence for minute, before he pulled out his fountain pen and signed the treaty. He then passed the copy over for the others to sign.
 
Ivan looked at the treaty before him, it seemed identical to the one he had been shown in Oktobergrad prior to being sent. As such he could find no reason not to sign it. Without a hint of a flourish he scrawled his name onto the paper, before passing it over to the others and signing theirs in turn. Sitting back he awaited the next stage of the formalities so that the meeting could conclude, he wondered what was going on back in the homeland, the idea of peace coming again was already resulting in a surge of optimism before he left, perhaps there would be a parade to commemorate the event, at that thought he let a smile briefly flicker across his business like demeanour, as images of joyous people out on the streets celebrating flitted acroos his mids eye.
