It took only a short walk down a hall to arrive at the Aqualish
Embassy. The ballroom was large and fully decorated in the style of the
Aqualish, but there was some Romulan music currently being played as
the group entered. There were a number of tables set up in scattered
areas around the room allowing for the sampling of various foods.
Bedru took it upon herself to stay at the Ramesar emissary's side. She
saw her role as peacekeeper.
Levy stayed close to Bedru to keep an eye on things.
"The Council most definately does know how to welcome an applicant,"
Marconis said allowing a bit of levity into his voice for the first
time.
As Bedru nursed a glass of juice, she said to Marconis, "Emissary, I
must admit my surprise at your government's decision to request
admission to the Council."
"I understand your surprise, Admiral. We are, for all intents and
purposes, a new race to this part of the galaxy. However, the best way
to learn about our neighbors, and the current challenges facing this
part of space, is to actively seek out and become aquainted with ones
neighbors. The Council seemed like the perfect opportunity to do just
that. If fortunate enough to be admitted to the Council, it is our
hope to have our official representative serve as the official point of
contact between all peoples. Thus eliminating the need to estabilish
so many embassies abroad."
Dai'Cou had been standing with the main group and was sipping a glass
of Romulan ale. "Most of us double as the official representatives for
our government here on Earth, but you may find that you will still have
to open embassies elsewhere at some point. The members of the Council
may be important to their governments but they cannot be the sole voice
of their government since they are not the ruling body."
