A Ship Approaches...
A ship, sporting the Jesian flag, travels through Trinity Bay. The bay is littered with Roylaiian and Minu naval ships, and the bay is heavily secured. A while later, the ship docks at Trinity's port, where a representative awaits the Jesian ambassadors. The city beyond the port is stunning. The cities buildings resemble spanish colonial architecture. Few modern buildings are in the city, and are rather scattered. Flowering trees can be seen everywhere, sprouting from everywhere one can grow. The Jesian ambassadors exit the ship, examining the city as they do. The representative introduces themself.
Burlap : Hello, I am Winston Burlap, and I will be accompanying you on your trip. We are glad to have you here in Trinity."
He smiles, and is dressed formally. He sports a nametag, with the Minuvano flag on it. Soldiers seem littered everywhere behind him. Why are there so many?
"Before we get started, do you have any questions?"

A Jesian ambassador, in a white kimono, asks "Why do you have so many guards with you? This to the eyes seems to be a peaceful place. Certainly no place for conflict yes?"

Burlap gulps. He still smiles, yet his eyes twitch.
Burlap : Well- things are definitely safe here. However, I am not supposed to tell you this, but..."
He scratches his head.
Burlap : "We are currently at civil war. Though I can assure you it won't affect your visit. We are perfectly safe here in Trinity."
He seems confident in his answer.

"Hmmm... a civil war? What is this civil war you speak of? Are you fighting against foreign barbarians?"

Burlap almost laughs, but it's muffled into a giggle.
Burlap : No, they arent foreign- domestic traitors.
Burlap still smiles, yet it seems more sinister.

"I see. Jesia does not have civil war. We only have large argument. To go against the Emperor is heresy.... but the government is different story haha! I fought against current state before during last big argument! I nearly lost arm!" he laughs
"Anyways.... show me what you have for me.... my name is Makoto." he says with a bow "excuse my rudeness"

Burlap laughd and bows aswell, trying to act nice.
Burlap : "It is a pleasure to meet you Makoto! We will be visiting the Sonne National Park end in the Kilibri Palace for discussions."
He turns behind him, guiding the Jesian ambassadors to a black car. Any Jesian guards (if attending) accompany them.

"This place is green," says Makoto "I am curious, how did you achieve such greenery in your nation?" he asks
One of the two guards is also looking outside, but tries to maintain focus

Burlap : We value nature. We made laws and regulations to keep our country green. I wish I could say the same for the east though.
Burlap turns to Makoto.
Burlap : Does your country have any greenery?
The car is currently traveling through Elch, reaching the Sonne National Park

"My grandfather used to tell me that Jesia was once covered in green mountains with pink trees... but that was long ago. Progress takes over nature in our case. It wasn't much of choice."
They arrive

Burlap frowns before leaving the car.
Burlap : Welcome to the Sonne National Park! Named after the rising sun. Our second most visited tourist spot, besides The Zaun.
The forest is dense with flowering trees, and seems almost untouched, other than the few benches, picnic tables, trails, and nearby parking lot. The road that leads to Ely has plenty of green bridges, allowing wild animals to pass over the road.
Burlap : Our nation focuses on progress as well, but we focus on more civil and environmental progress.

"Forest of the rising sun? I like the name of it, your people focus on the environment, which is unusual but noble I guess" he says with a confused look "Where shall we sit and discuss?"

Burlap : I suppose we shall discuss wherever seems best. Perhaps right over there.
Burlap heads towards a nearby tree, where a wooden picnic table lays.

"Now that we have found somewhere to sit, let us discuss this diplomacy. What should Jesia know about your nation?"

Burlap : Well, of course the main thing you should know is that our intentions are pure. We have no plans on using you for our benefit, rather to mutually benefit us both.
Burlap sighs.
Burlap : There are a lot of morally corrupt nations out there. Especially those in the Northwestern continent.
Burlap : Our nation is fixated on the purpose of peace and prosperity. We hum in hopes other will sing to our tune.
Burlap turns towards the road. Upset.
Burlap : Though- I wonder how much of an example we are with our current civil war. Would you rather me explain our current situation?
