The mayor, yet again, picks up his radio.

"Freaking yes! it is about half a mile out of town, and has provisions to land any up to about 150 feet long." the mayor then, angrily turns off the radio.

A plane bearing the Duke's Seal lands in the air field. Several men climb out of it, bearing the sign of Lord's Guards. Buckled to their waist are long cutlasses and strapped to their shoulders are M-1's. They number about 10, making a row in which the ambassador can come through. Four more guards come out, this time armored with AK-47's, and dressed all in black. Finally the ambassador steps out. She is none other than Lady Melina Margaret Luxorn, the fourth daughter of His Excellency. She stares at the empty air field, void of any diplomatic officials. She turns to one of her companion guards, and says in a melodic tone:

"Is this the way of greetings of Clankerton?"

Lady Melina Margaret Luxorn turns to the Mayor, her face notably calm, and inquires if there is any other site in which the embassy can be founded. She explains to the Mayor that it is a custom of her nation that embassies are of a larger size in order to accomodate the full negotiations that one might hold between two nations. She puts forth the option of payment in free transportation by the Royal Air Force of goods both to and from Clankerton.

Seated in his office, Minister Kelm reads over a report that a new town/country has sprung up in the area...Clankerton...He frowns and thinks for a few moments, then sends a telegram to the capital of the country...

Shell McRoy,

I, Prime Minister of the People's Republic of Casselton, Dean Kelm, wish to offer a welcome to the area. Surely we will "work" together in the future and get to know our countries better. Perhaps trade networks can be established. Please reply with any ideas. Thank you.

Lady Melina Margaret Luxorn sighs. She inquires the Mayor if the rest of her entourage can depart from the plane in order to firmly establish the Embassy. She also asks permission for the plane to depart in 3 hours so that it may pick up the initial shipment of goods marked for Clankerton (300 pounds of fruits, wheat, grain, 200 modified AK-47's for guerilla warfare, and 20 SPX-22 Sniper Rifles)
