LIST OF RESORTS:
Shankar International's Pataliputra hotel is undoubtedly one of the company's finest resorts. With a gorgeous ocean view and a nigh-entirely autonomous resort complex containing an entire city's worth of amenities, this resort is one of the Empire's best.

The nucleus of the Imperial City's rich, famous, and powerful, Pataliputra's M is simply the place to be. The hotel is packed with state-of-the-art technology everywhere one may look and guests are given highly personalized and genuine service.

Guests can enjoy utter tranquility and relaxation in this resort, which most certainly deserves the epithet of "Paradise". Rooms are expansive and spread out, technology is both simple and state-of-the-art, food and drink is at the cream of the crop, and the pristine, genuine tropical Syrixian experience is almost surreal.

Commonwealth Member?: NO
Delegate(s) Attending: Ambassador Kimberley Kardashian, Prince Richard.
Lodging of Choice: The M Pataliputra
Special Requests:
The Prince's protector, Anahita, will be required to remain in his presence at all times and will be armed. Following an assassination against Matilda II on foreign land, The Prince will only travel in his own motorcade and will arrive and depart from Syrixia by plane. Preparations will need to be made for the accommodation of the primary plane and the secondary plane. Supplementary security arrangements as offered by the host would be welcome.
Any additional comments The Prince would like to explore opportunities for the purchase of a residence within the capital of Syrixia. Assistance in this respect both with sourcing a suitable property and with soliciting the necessary approvals, would be most welcome.
 
Nation (Full name): The Monarchy of Guslantis
Commonwealth Member?: YES
Delegate(s) Attending: Chancellor Abigail Hutchinson, Dr. Hachiro Yamasaki, and Secretary-General Vimal Misra.
Lodging of Choice: M Pataliputra
Special Requests: The rooms will need to have a stable internet connection for the three to communicate back to the Jewel.
Any additional comments: His Majesty, King Marcus sends his congratulations to the Empire, and hopes that the delegation represents his generosity and goodwill toward one of the Jewel’s most long-standing and fruitful allies.
 
Nation (Full name): The United Kingdom of Sasten
Commonwealth Member?: NO
Delegate(s) Attending: King Renadt II Kaizunel, Prince-Elect Azaras VII Kaizunel, Foreign Minister Ayen Olvazir, Ambassador Anigen Maidev
Lodging of Choice: The King, Prince-Elect and ambassador will reside at the Sastennic Embassy, while the Foreign Minister will be staying at the M Pataliputra.
Special Requests: As an active-duty combat pilot, the Prince-Elect often flies her own aircraft as an escort alongside the royal transport; we ask that any security detail and airport ground crew be made aware of this to avoid any potential misunderstandings.
Any additional comments: Two thousand years ago, the Sastennic Empire watched as the Syrixian Empire was born. In all that time, the blue and gold banner has watched over your merchants selling wares from around the globe in Azarai, while our own ships plied the waters to return the favour, building trade links and friendships that enriched us both in more ways than one. While there have been difficulties, disagreements, and even wars along the way, the Syrixia we see today is a stalwart of the modern age, one of the great centers of commerce and diplomacy around which the last sixty years of peace and prosperity have been built, and one which we are more than happy to celebrate. The United Kingdom of Sasten offers a toast to another two thousand years, for you and for us all.

Inside her office, Chancellor Hutchinson worked frantically to finish up everything before her scheduled departure to Pataliputra.

"Ayuda, how many more emails do I have?" she asked the robotic assistant.

"54," replied Ayuda.

"I'll have to work on some more when I get on the aircraft. I'll never finish in time," she said, defeated.

"Chancellor, Dr. Yamasaki from Ren and Secretary-General Misra are on their way up," said Ayuda.

Hutchinson checked her watch, she was running out of time.

"Thank you, Ayuda," replied Hutchinson.

Minutes later, she heard a knock on her door, and the gentlemen walked in.

"A pleasure to have you both here, I'm sure His Majesty has already informed you of our itinerary. Nice to see you again, Doctor," said Hutchinson, shaking Yamasaki's hand.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Chancellor. Governor Leng has told me much about you," said Misra.

"She's a delightful lady. Very opinionated," said Hutchinson, trying to force a smile. Leng was too absorbed in her nature-loving to be a productive leader.

"Chancellor, you've received clearance for the King's personal fleet, you embark shortly," said Ayuda.

"Looks like we're taking the King's airplane," joked Yamasaki.

Hours passed, and they touched down in Syrixia. Upon arrival, Hutchinson tried to take everything in.

"First time in Pataliputra?" asked Yamasaki.

"Yes. I've read so much about this beautiful city, yet I've never gotten the chance to come and experience it for myself," said Hutchinson, looking around in awe.

"I've been to Syrixia a couple of times with Thomas. We've surprisingly got a few stores in the country. Alef is really giving them a run for their money," said Yamasaki.

"My grandmother always talked about Pataliputra. How influential this city was in the creation of Attarahanda. Every time I come it's like I'm...home," said Misra, reflecting.

"Let's make our way to the hotel. I hear it's gorgeous," said Hutchinson, leading the group with her itinerary.
 
Gaiseric stared out across the bay of Pataliputra,
a million glittering lights danced on the waters. it reminded Gaiseric of old tales his grandfather had told of marsh sirens, though those always ended with enticed travelers being lured to a watery death.

Is that what I am? a traveler lured to his doom?

Gaiseric wondered briefly, he had dragged his nation into a new world, a global one filled with greater wonders and worse horrors then the clans could have ever conceived of. The city of Pataliputra,
was one such example, a city that stretched across the horizon, glittering towers of glass and steel without end.

A soft hand on his arm surprised Gaiseric, Anegrette Kimbri, Demi-Chief of the Steppe, the Queen with a thousand ears and his closest confidant and deepest love stood next to him. Her steely grey eyes displayed a rare softness as she regarded him, her pale skin and blonde hair seemed to glow in the night air, Though that might have been the wine talking.

'You seem troubled' she said calmly but with a look of concern spreading across her face

Gaiseric sighed 'This city of lights and glass, our forefathers could not have built it if they had enjoyed peace for millennia' he said grimly

Anegrette frowned 'Beautiful yes, but transitory Gai, cities rise and fall and men and women live and die in their shadow...but virtue is something generational...our Ehrenseele, that sacred code gifted to us by the ancestors..is worth more then any gleaming city' she said a smile briefly appearing

Gaiseric Nodded, reassured by her words, that was why he was here, Not to marvel at gleaming cities or to lament the state of Essalanea but to demonstrate the Ehrenseele to the Syrixian's. He was here to ensure that his people would have friends in this new world and to cement their place in modern eras.

A munching sound filled the air as Alric Volkmann stepped onto the balcony 'You two make a fully catered villa with a lovely view feel more like a funeral' Alric said mouth still full

His military uniform was covered in crumbs and his dark beard was wet with grease and ale

'Why are you always eating!?' Gaiseric said in mock annoyance

Alric Shrugged and popped the last of the snack into his mouth ' You decided to bring me and these Syrixians can cook, wonder if we can get these pakora things back on the steppe' he said with a mischievous grin

Anegrette sighed and slid her palm down her face 'At least you are thinking about trade, even if it is with your stomach Alric' she said rolling her eyes as she did

'Wheres Helbrandt?' Gaiseric said with a raised eyebrow, the Kargs new chieftain had been invited in order to show the unity of the great clans, something that would have been impossible a year ago.

Helbrant was the last living cousin of Ulli Karg, the slain former ruler of the Kargs, He had been spared the traditional ritual suicide before he could drive a blade through his gut. Gaiseric did not need any more of his people throwing their lives away. Helbrandt shared some of his dead kinsman's traditional views, but he had also embraced some of Gaiseric's vision for modernity, specifically military hardware and steel manufacture, the Karg always loved the tools of war.

Helbrandt had not endured the journey to Pataliputra well, the Essalanean's were poor sailors at the best of times and the days spent on the sea had left even Gaiseric with shaky legs and a distinctly green complexion. Compared with the endless churning sea's Paliputra was a paradise.

Alric grin wolfishly 'Kargs don't seem good at sea voyages, that and I think the local food gave him the runs...the stray dog of the north is currently indisposed' he said with a chuckle

Gaiseric sighed ' Ziu's Mercy! And Wheres Magnar!? am I leading a delegation or a troupe of fools!' he said throwing up his hands in exasperation

'Magnar is resting, he's not all that young anymore and he wants to get the presentation speech right' Alric replied suddenly more serious

Magnar Hureg was probably the oldest clan chief in Essalanea, he even had Otto Rugen beat at his age of 70 Years, the Great Bear of the Hureg was a man who knew how to draw a crowds attention, his gravitas and booming voice making him an excellent herald. It had been Gaiseric's honor to invite him to the proceedings.

'Good' Gaiseric nodded 'And the blade?' he asked

Alric produced a fur wrap and opened it, the shortsword glittered in its scabbard, Essalanean steel from the Karg heartlands bearing rare ivory in its hilt and a scabbard of pure silver. across the length of both blade and sheathe ran masterful engravings depicting the Lions of Syrixia's crest and the waves of the great ocean that separated the two nations. at the bottom of the blade stood a single mounted Essalanean, arms outstretched.

Alric wrapped the blade once more in the furs 'Gift fit for an emperor brother' he said with a slight bow of his head

The sheathed blade, an ancient gesture of friendship and peace upon the steppe, it was a gesture both of hope and intention, Gaiseric hoped the emperor would understand the gravity of such a symbol, hoped the Syrixian people would be amenable to a partnership.

'One day kinsmen' he said raising a hand towards Pataliputra's cityscape

'One day we shall have glorious edifices of our own to awe guests and inspire wonder in our own people' he said his voice almost whisper as if he was scared Ziu might hear him and strike him down for arrogance

'But first we win the emperor's trust' Anegrette replied in a neutral tone, she was ever the grounding influence

'Indeed, first we win the emperors trust, but then my friends we take our place in their world with glories of our own' he replied with a flash of excitement in his voice

His demi-chief and brother nodded at that, Alric soon returned indoors to continue binging on Syrixian dishes and Anegrette retired soon after to review the diplomatic reports and prepare. Gaiseric was left alone on the balcony eyes fixed firmly on the distance, he could not see it but Essalanea was just beyond the Horizon.

I will make you glow also sweet motherland, I swear it upon My honor, Ziu and Essalan

"Oh Pataliputra" Giorgio muttered to himself as he looked outside the plane window "It's been too long."
The plane began to descend to the airport
"I hope to see my old friend Rajesh... I even brought him wine and cheese" he tells his wife, Alisha a relative of the Emperor "Giorgio, how is your Suchari? Out of interest." Alisha asks "Oh lord its isn't as good as it used to be. But I think I can still manage..." In Suchari "Right?" Alisha giggles a little "You are very rusty aren't you." The Airplane lands, and Giorgio steps off it wih his wife, and several others, including his Master of Horse, Alberto, who was one of his best friends through his childhood in exile, and one of the few other Prediceans abroad "Fetch me the wine and cheese, let's get it into the limo" The dignitaries pile into a convoy of limosuines "Villa Ganio was first bought by my father, you know? It has been Mavoia property since the 70s. Shame he couldn't come."Giorgio tells Duke Alberto "Yeah, that's truly a shame. I have heard the Villa is beautiful though." "Oh yes it is!" The motorcade reaches Villa Ganio. Giorgio upon entering the Villa "This is home for the next few days. Let's find everyone rooms now."
A Member of the Signoria goes to the attic "Your Serenity, you might want to see this!" Giorgio I had hidden a valuable Mavoia trausre here had Predice never returned from the dark spectre of Communism. It had long been thought to be lost, as it was forgotten about. This boded well for the rest of the trip. "Are we going shopping today?" Alberto Asks "Sure. Let's see what Pataliputra has to offer..."
 
Fenris and Nurendir sat out on the porch of their rented villa watching the waves. The endless sights and sounds of Pataliputra were in the distance and the two men needed to clear their minds a bit before heading out into the chaos. They had been in silence as they often were, until their peace was interrupted by light and sound of Nurendir lighting a cigar.

"That's a bad habit Nen." Said Fenris reaching for his glass of wine.

"Some would say drinking is bad habit father." Nurendir replied playfully.

"And yet here you are doing both." Said the High King.

"All things in moderation father." The Prince replied.

"I suppose we'll see about that." Laughed Fenris. "If I'm right we're in for quite the party these next few days."

"That's the hope." Nurendir said draining his glass.

"Nen..." His father began to scold, but the arrival of an attendant with Ambassador Manos Cirlinen in tow saved the Prince the scolding.

"Your Majesty, My Prince." Said Manos bowing. "I hope I am not interrupting."

"Not at all." Replied Nurendir shooting a smirk at his father. "Care for a drink? Have a seat"

"Certainly your Highness." Manos said sitting down.

"A healthy pour." Said Nurendir to the attendant.

"Thank you." Said Manos taking his glass.

"So Manos." Started the High King. "'What can we expect out of this Bimillennium? Intrigue, assassination, perhaps a coup or two?"

"Intrigue no doubt, I can pray we avoid the other two." He said with a laugh. "They've been planning this for a long time Your Majesty. I would expect it to go off without a hitch."

"That's good." Said Fenris. "Let's do try to avoid that intrigue as well. If I can go this trip without talking shop I'll be happy man."

"A pipe dream and you know it." Nurendir laughed. "You'll be the first one to start the conversation."

"Probably." Fenris shrugged. "But an old man can hope."

Nurendir rolled his eyes and finished his glass. "Well we'll never find out here. What say we set off father?"

Fenris nodded. "Indeed. The City awaits."

"Welcome to the Prydanian embassy to the Empire Your Majesty" Bjarne Dall, Prydania's ambassador to Syrixia, proclaimed as the King and Prime Minister stepped through the front door.

Tobias smiled, relieved. Pataliputra tended to gleam. The calm of the embassy was therefore a relief for his senses.
"Thank you Ambassador" he replied, before turning to his Prime Minister.
"Plans for the evening Magnus?"

"I'm afraid I no longer have the constitution for a late evening, Your Majesty. I'll be retiring early."
He observed the King, wondering what he'd do. The M hotel was abuzz with activity. Surely a scene would develop there before too long. It wouldn't shock him if his King decided to make an appearance the night before festivities were to start. He was shocked, then, when Tobias indicated he rather liked his own plans for the evening.

"That sounds perfect Magnus, I think my head is still a bit congested from the plane. A slow evening will do some good before things kick off tomorrow. So a quiet night in until Alycia arrives" he explained with a smile.

"I'm glad to hear it" Magnus replied.
"I think the next few days will be taxing. Best to get your rest when you can."

Tobias just chuckled.
"I don't think it'll be so bad...but...this place is kind of overwhelming isn't it?"

"Twenty-two million-plus in just this city, Your Majesty" Ambassador Dall replied.
"More than the entire Realm."

"No wonder I felt a bit claustrophobic" Magnus chuckled.

The Ambassador nodded as embassy staff carried the King and Prime Minister's luggage away.
"It takes some getting used to, but I hope you'll be able to appreciate Pataliputra's charms by the end of your visit."

Tobias grinned.
"Overwhelming to be sure, but still stunning..."

With that he said his farewells to the Ambassador and his Prime Minister, retreating to his quarters within the embassy.




The wood-panelled walls and hunting tapestries of the building made one think of home to be sure. It might even pass as a country cottage if one could ignore the sounds of the bustling street.

Tobias, for his part, relaxed in an old chair. The dignified air perhaps undercut by the pulp chivalry novel he was reading, its paperback covers and spine worn from constant use. It was one of the books that had been with him since the days of the Civil War.

"Pardon me Your Majesty" one of the embassy's attendants said clearly, announcing his presence.
"Yes?" the King replied, a bit startled as he hadn't noticed him come by.

"Pardon the interruption, Your Majesty, but this came for you."
The attendant approached, handing the King a gold and green-bordered envelope. He opened it, going over it quietly despite his lips moving as he read.

letter:
To the Delegation of Prydania:

We are delighted to inform you that His Majesty, King Tobias III, is cordially invited to a private meeting with HM the Emperor on Wednesday, April 17th, as mentioned in the Weekly Schedule provided with your letter of acceptance. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Department of State.

-Rajat Mirpuri Deputy Secretary of State

"Oh" Tobias said upon finishing, before looking up.
"Do you require anything else at the moment, Your Majesty?" the attendant asked.
"No, thank you" Tobias replied, sitting back in his chair as the attendant left him. He held the invitation up, looking over it.

Rajesh...he wanted to see him? The Syrixian Emperor had been a mysterious entity in a way. Not making himself known. Why would he want to see him? He set the invitation down on a small table to his side, his mind racing.
"Huh" he said to himself.
"That'll be...something."
 
“So here we are,” said Natalie as she was escorted down the steps of the airplane at Imperial Pataliputra International. Today was the day on which all of the guests for Syrixia’s bimillennial celebration would arrive, and the Pontais delegation was there nice and early. Walking down the steps she could see the city of Pataliputra in the distance, the city which would host this great celebration. She had come to Syrixia when she was eight when her father had been visiting the Emperor. On this visit, she would meet the Syrixian head of state for the first time since taking the throne. This would also be an opportunity to meet up with other heads of state from different nations. It was an important week for the future of Ponterre: a time for the new Queen to set the groundwork for the nation’s relationships with its counterparts from around the world.

The transport planes carrying the state cars had left saturday evening, so that when they arrived monday morning, everything would be ready to go. Anthony and his wife were whisked to the Norstad Airbase, where the state aircraft was waiting for them. Norberg was already waiting for them at the airbase.

A light dusting of snow covered the ground. It was April, but it was Goyanes, therefore winter ended when it felt like it. “Sure am in the mood for some warm air,” said Anthony to Claire. The thermostat on the car showed a solid -2 degrees centigrade, making them both wonder about the fact that it was April and snowing.

At last, the motorcade arrived at the airbase, and the airstairs were waiting for them. The porters had already taken the luggage and loaded it earlier in the morning. Norberg stood by the steps in his tweed jacket, and greeted the imperial couple with a warm smile.

“Well, let’s get to it,” said Norberg, as they stepped aboard the RR Mark 7 airliner.




Several hours later, the airliner touched down in sunny Pataliputra. They were to be official guests of the Syrixian Emperor and stay in his palace, a reward of their very close relationship. The airliner came to a halt, and the jetway and red carpet were positioned. The motorcade was waiting for them, and soon they were off to the palace on Elephant Island.

During the ride, the chauffeur's aide handed Anthony a note, which read:

To the Delegation of Goyanes:

Due to the large number of states attending this event and the fact that His Imperial Majesty, Grand Emperor Anthony and his wife will be staying directly in the Golden Palace by HM the Emperor's personal wishes, we have decided to offer our valued friends in the Imperial Goyanean Federation the distinct privilege of meeting with HM the Emperor at any time during the duration of the celebration week, as is appropriate. This privilege is extended to all members of the Goyanean delegation.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Department of State.
-Rajat Mirpuri
Deputy Secretary of State


Anthony was delighted, but expected such courtesy from his friend. “Norberg will need this more than me” he said to the aide, smirking.

The ride was over the moment they arrived at the drive of the Golden Palace, which was not gold, but rather a peachy-orange color. The chauffeur opened his door, and Anthony stepped out. Norberg stepped out of the limousine behind them.

“Well Claire, we’re here,” said Anthony. She looked at him and smiled before they went up the steps into the doorway.

Mid-to-Late Morning
April 15, 2000 SK - AD 2019


The Emperor sat alone at his desk in his private study. Every light in the room was on and the blinds were all shut. The Empress thought it was odd, but he liked it that way. He was pouring over a list of all the nations coming to the festival his Government had been organizing for months.

It was crazy enough, at least at first glance, that his birthday was an imperial holiday, but that much was Imperial tradition; and being 50, soon to be 51, he was used to it. But this- this was nothing like your usual Samrati Jayanti. The Government had pulled out all the stops, calling the Empire's allies and foreign partners, as well as other colleagues in the international community, to participate.

Iraelia. Goyanes. Prydania. Peuportile. Malor-Kanada. Highton. Ponterre. Predice. Aciera. Midir. Essalanea. Valland. Andrenne. Skanda. Merilia. Sil Dorsett. Sutherland. Norsia. The Zhen Empire. Alnaria. Ceretis. Xentherida. McMasterdonia. Guslantis. Sasten. Callise. Demescia. Austalgotha. The Federation of the Vestrugat. Haor Chall. Cimmeria. Ulstome. Counting the Empire itself, a total of 32 states would be in attendance.

He chuckled briefly when noticing Sutherland and McMasterdonia. Preparations had been made to ensure that neither state's delegates would see each other, and that if the subject of the Sutherland crisis were to be brought up, it'd be on the Empire's own terms. All the same, though, he still found their simultaneously attendance humorous.

Delegates had been arriving all of last night and this morning, and while Rajesh had been well-prepared, Empress Jodha was, as usual, frantically preparing herself to greet their guests last minute. As a courtesy to their close personal friends, Anthony and Claire Kjellse-Tages, the Grand Emperor and Grand Empress of Goyanes, the Palace would be accepting them as guests for the duration of the week.

She was, in fact, still focusing on what outfit to choose to wear today when the Palace staff informed her that the Goyanean limousine was literally making its way up the drive. Quickly, she took out a less ornate but more elegant dress- colored white and gold- to wear, put it on, and headed downstairs to personally greet the Goyaneans.

"Well Claire, we're here." she heard them say as the Palace doormen let Anthony and Claire in. Coming down the stairs, Jodha greeted them playfully. "Hello, hello to you both!" she said, smiling. "I hope your flight was well." She paused briefly, walking towards the couple. "Rajesh is still in his study. He's been there all morning. Hell, he probably doesn't know you're here yet." She rolled her eyes jokingly, so as to convey an impression of "You guys know how he is."

At this point, whilst his wife and the Goyanean imperial couple were talking and heading towards his study, Rajesh had since put down his list. Everything was in order, and he wanted to take a quick moment to read the book he was currently on, The Last Light. He had previously read A New God, an alternate history novel out of Valland describing a Dominion victory in the Fascist Wars, but this one was read by an Andrennian author, and used different literary techniques. To someone like Rajesh, these differing scenarios were fascinating.

His break was short lived, though, as the door to his study opened. Rajesh looked up from his book and smiled. "Anthony! Claire! Welcome to the Palace!"

As the group of visitors walked past the Imperial Palace, the tour guide droned on and on sending the guests to sleep. These were not just any tourists– it was a group of visitors at the Syrixian bimillennial celebration, and this grouping was mostly composed of the younger guests. Natalie, Reine de les Pontais, was among the group, but never having met any of the others on the tour before spent most of the tour dividing attention between the landmarks of Pataliputra and her smartphone. In addition, the tour was in Mercanti, which was nothing more than a second language for the Queen. Three weeks prior, the Queen’s mother had informed her that she would be continuing her mercanti tutoring, leaving little explanation save noting that it would be useful. The guide asked to be excused and ran inside a gift shop for a few minutes to take care of something, leaving a group of about a dozen uninterested young visitors, mostly royals. Natalie continued to look through her phone, unphased by the absence of the tour guide. From a bit to her left, she suddenly heard a greeting.

“Hello,” said the blonde figure to her left. “You dropped something,” he said, handing her the leather wallet she kept in her pocket.

“Thanks,” she said. Natalie took the wallet and placed it in her pocket again. She glanced at the boy and he took it as a cue to speak.

“My name is Kristian,” he said, reaching out for a handshake. “My older sister is crown princess of Andrenne,” he continued. Natalie shook his hand and introduced herself as Natalie, but didn’t mention her title. The Queen finally spoke more than one word, explaining to Kristian how she boring she thought the tour was. He nodded in approval. The guide returned and the group continued the tour. Now, Natalie had stopped staring at her phone and was now in a conversation with the Andennian prince. Later, as the tour concluded they said goodbye and went on their buses to their separate lodgings. Natalie had still never mentioned her title as Queen of Ponterre as the bus returned to the Shankar. Perhaps Gautier was right, she thought taking into consideration the conversation, perhaps this celebration would be important for forging friendships with leaders from other nations.
 
Gaiseric & Anegrette

The imperial library of Pataliputra was a vast ocean of shelves and books, an ancient island citadel of knowledge isolated from the sheer mass and heat of the city outside. Gaiseric and Anegrette had been given their own study room where they could examine the texts and parchment in privacy, the police escort waited outside, it was a veritable oasis compared with the immense spectacle occurring outside.

'Amazing!" Gaiseric exclaiming excitedly as he sat reviewing an ancient map of the home islands

'Indeed, the Syrixian's have an impressive amount of information stored here, its a little ostentatious but impressive all the same' she said with a wry smirk

Gaiseric pretended to be offended 'Be Nice Ana' he said with a wolfish grin

She pretended to smack her hand before moving to stand behind Gaiseric and rest her arms around his shoulders.

'Is this how I die?' Gaiseric said with a chuckle, not looking up from the map

Anegrette rolled her eyes 'you should be so lucky' she said before pausing to gaze upon the ancient parchment for herself

The colors were faded from age but within the green and red shapes ancient names could be made out, all in Suchari of course but she could see one that she recognized.

'That symbol... it's all over Kimbria...' she said pointing to the glyph

Gaiseric smiled and taking her hand in his own delicately guided it towards the glyph 'it is the Suchari symbol for the Kamarupi, the ancient empire whose ruins the port of Kimbria is built upon' Gaiseric said with a satisfied grin

'And why are you so interested in this old map?' Anegrette said, she instantly regretted asking as she knew a lecture was soon to follow

Gaiseric sighed and leaned back slightly ' This map dates from an age where the home islands were locked in a period of strife and warfare, states big and small all fighting over titles, territory, and resources' he said waving his hand across the map for emphasis

'Sounds a lot like Essalanea' Anegrette replied with a raised eyebrow

'Exactly!' Gaiseric said suddenly rising from his chair to pace the room, Anegrette was used to Gaiseric's sudden exciting bouts of animation, other people tended to get jumpier.

'This great empire, this gleaming city Ana, I was so seduced by its grandeur that I forgot the most important fact'

'which is?' Anegrette replied curious as to where this was going

'They were like us once, divided, endlessly feuding, it took unity to build all this!' he said pausing to let his words settle in

'And I take it you intend to be that unity?' Anegrette said her tone vaguely suspicious

'Not me Ana, US! you and I together can lead Essalanea into a new era...just as the Syrixian's did two thousand years ago! We shall rule over Vosgotis not as weak chieftains...but as High King and Queen! and in doing so we will unite the clans behind us!!!' Gaiseric sunk back into his chair at that, excitement suddenly dispersing back into silent contemplation

'Perhaps the crown will sit upon your brow son of Volkmann, but first you have to win it' Anegrette whispered in his ear, all warmth suddenly gone from her voice, she had a talent for reminding Gaiseric of earthly practicality when he became too focused upon his vision

Gaiseric took a deep breath and then kissed her hand gently 'You are correct, my queen, first we drink the emperors' wine...talk with his guests and make alliances...a king and queen need allies after all'

Anegrette smiled and kissed him on the cheek in a brief and gentle movement 'mhmm speaking of guests...what did you do with Alric and Helbrandt?'

'Oh I sent them with that insufferable droning tour guide, hmm they might have better use of the police escort then we do' Gaiseric said suddenly concerned as to what he had unleashed on Syrixia

Alric & Helbrandt

'BY ZIU WHY IS IT SO HOT!!!!' Helbrandt growled as they walked through the city streets, a small escort of police keeping the throngs of people at bay

'Have you considered the possibility that chainmail and dhole furs are a poor choice for this climate' Alric replied with a smirk

The karg chieftain and the volkmann general had been all but shooed away when Gaiseric announced his intention to visit the imperial library

'Go and get to know the people we are trying to win over' Gaiseric had said without looking up from his map

Alric had suspected that this had not been Gaiseric's real motive for sending them out, the tour guide was busy prattling on in Mercanti about architecture, history, and customs...Alric pretended not to understand but he was actually following the commentary with ease. Helbrandt was having no such luck and periodically uttered something in loud and guttural Sudengots.

'Well at least I'm not dressed like a Syrixian concubine!' he said pointing a giant hand at Alric's Sherwani and sandals

Alric liked to blend in, it was a habit he had cultivated over a decade of eliminating his brother's enemies, the Syrixian clothes were partially appeasement of that habit, but it didn't hurt that they also helped him bear the oppressive humidity and heat either.

'Look at this place!' Helbrandt continued 'Shops selling a thousand pointless things and all these people using little pieces of paper and metal to decide whether they can survive or not! Madness!!!' he yelled sweeping a halberd sized arm across the boulevard of shops and vendors

'I'll admit its different Helbrandt' Alric said honing in on a pakora stand 'but when in Pataliputra!' he said heading for the scent

Helbrandt was to busy soapboxing to listen to Alric 'And this is the future that your brother wants us to embrace!? I cann...' he was silenced as Alric passed him a bag of Pakora

'Try these' Alric simply said between munching his own

Helbrandt did feel hungry and he was soon devouring the packet like the very image of a Karg wild dog

'These are delicious! Tour Guide lead us to more food! Maybe the Volkmann is actually on to something!' he said with an excited roar

The tour guide was visibly shaking as he tried to understand the gigantic man yelling at him in indecipherable gotic.

'Skip the sights and take us straight to food my friend, he gets angry when he's hungry' Alric said to the guide in perfect Mercanti

Magnar

The great bear of the hureg confederacy could barely remember a time he had been so relaxed, the steam from the bath lulling him into a sense of complete relaxation. Magnar hureg was 70 years old, a venerable age few on the steppe could boast reaching, and whilst the young spent the day running across a vast and cramped cityscape, he had instead opted to spend the day at the local baths.

It almost reminded him of the hot springs of Heimstatte, the warmth easing the stiffness in his old bones, the gardens outside echoed with the sounds of peacocks and exotic birds. Magnar reached for a cup of steaming chai that a white-robed attendant offered on a silver tray.

'It's been too long Jatin, this city has changed a lot since I was last here, but the best bits are still the same' Magnar said sipping his assam with a contented smile

Jatin was almost the same age as magnar, though visibly shorter and his dark features a strong contrast to Magnar's wrinkled pink flesh. both them having met many years ago during Magnar's initial attempts to convince the confederacy of the need to open up to the world beyond the steppe. Those days had been a time of frustration, the clans unwilling to seek new markets, but not things were different.

'And you think this 'collective capitalism' could work?' Jatin asked in perfect scarcely accented Mercanti

Magnar nodded 'twenty years ago we tried to drag my clan out of the dark ages with limited success, but we didn't have Gaiseric'

Jatin sipped his tea his dignified features betrayed no emotion, he was a man with an air of instant gravitas, his perfectly combed beard and hair resting upon a narrow but warm face. Jatin's eyes were thoughtful, calculating and always analyzing his surroundings, he was like a hawk scanning for prey.

'And this Gaiseric, what makes him different from the other warlords on the steppe? business ventures require stable partners Magnar' Jatin said in a quizzical tone

'He has already crushed the rival clans, opened the country to outsiders and kept his grip on power without being murdered in a duel...he has a vision Jatin, our vision!' Magnar said leaning forward to emphasize his seriousness

Jatin grinned 'you never could contain your excitement old friend, hmmm maybe he is different, you've never been one to judge a person wrong'

'He is, you'll see when he meets your emperor' Magnar replied passing his empty cup to the attendant

Jatin rubbed his beard, the gesture had not changed in twenty years, back when Magnar had come to Syrixia seeking knowledge of modern economics it had been Jatin who had tutored him, the old man was always calculating probabilities and variables in his head if Jatin acquiesced then Syrixian support was possible.

'Hmmm I can speak with the imperial government, I hope you understand I have not tutored economics for a long time...however I have friends in the ministry who can aid Essalanea in setting up diplomatic and commercial missions here...if things have indeed changed our dream of a new age of wealth and openness can indeed become a reality' Jatin said leaning back so he could enjoy the steam

Magnar grinned, a new age indeed, he suddenly felt nostalgic for the times when he had sat in Jatin's then tiny apartment studying capitalist and syndicalist theories, lessons he would eventually impart to a young Volkmann chief seeking to rebuild his clan.

Gaiseric, my student, you can achieve what I never did, a seed planted is a garden soon grown
