"How many applications has the Council received since it's formation,
and how many of them have been approved?"
It was clear by the questioning that Marconis was very much interested
in the application and it's formal process.
It was a question that Caimlyn had expected, but not one that he had
been looking forward to answering. There was really no easy way to
respond. "Almost everyone currently on the Council are founding
members. As a result, the application process was being finalized.
The Ramesar are the first to go through the process."
"I see." From the way that Marconis answered made it clear that the
answer was disappointing. To make things worse it was the third
'surprise' that the new delegation was dealt. First, Watson and most
of the Council gone when they arrived. Second, the Venasians, and
lastly what was being taken as a hap-hazard approach to Council
membership.
"Will the applications process be delayed due to the unexpected
departure of the Plantoc, Ambassador Watson, and company?"
Levy spoke up, "Emissary it is only fair that the sitting members of
the Council have an opportunity to meet with you in Council. If there
is a delay I expect it to be minor and expect business to resume
quickly upon their return."
"Mr. Levy, unless I am wrong in my understanding of the Diplomatic
Council and the role of Ambassadors, all members are present and
accounted for. The member governments are represented on the Council
by qualified ambassadorial staff if not by a full ambassador."
"I can understand your concerns on the matter, Mr. Emissary," picked up
Dai'Cou. "As you can imagine, none of us take your application
lightly. We are all proper representatives of our government, but we
do not have the leeway to vote on matters that our superiors have. We
will have to speak with them or our homeworlds before we are able to
vote for acceptance. With that said, the Council is meant to be open
to those interested in participating. It should not take us long to go
over the information needed so we can make the appropriate decision."
Marconis bowed his head slightly to the Aqualish. The answer seemed to calm
any annoyance toward the situation.
{OOC: Pete withdrew his post. }
After some more chit chat, and sampling of the various cusisine, Marconis came
to the Venasian Ambassador.
"I wish I could say that it is a pleasure to see your people again, Ambassador."
