Adrianna Castellano couldn't have been more surprised whenever she had been sent over to the Kingdom of Lundastal to conduct a diplomatic meeting over Lundastal offering friendship, not screaming over either crude oil or the human rights abuses of the nation. It was the first meeting she'd ever been at which didn't involve genocide or any of that particular shit .

"Landing in five minutes," said the pilot through the intercom of the business class aircraft.

Here we go, thought Adrianna.

She was 5 foot 8, dark brown hair, green eyes and beautiful in the Italian sort of way. Her parents had fled Fascist Italy along with her grandparents, back in the 30s. She herself and only been born 30 years ago, and her parents had told her about the horrors of Fascist Italy, and why they fled with hundreds more to Vernesia. Of course, back in those days, Vernesia was actually a nation which didn't commit mass genocides or any of the other shit which it had started under King Peter I.

Adrianna's daydreams and thoughts were cut short, however, as soon as the aircraft landed. Instantly, she made a move to get our first, instead of waiting for the middle-aged businessmen which were also aboard the flight. Luckily, she got off first, and as she walked the metal steps which would take her off the aircraft, she scanned for any sign of somebody looking to pick her up.

Tancred Calcos had been the Foreign Minister of Lundastal ever since the reign of the previous monarch before his heart had gave out on him. He was one of the most recognizable ministers in the Royal Court. A rugged man who stood at six foot two and was blessed with the muscles (and character) that could make women swoon, Tancred waited at the airport for the arrival of the Vernesian representative. It seemed better for him to greet the representative in person rather than wait for them to be brought to him.

When he noticed Adriana in the distance, Tancred couldn't help but be a bit aroused by her appearance as did other men in the airport who looked for a brief moment at this alluring Italian woman. Making sure that he wasn't looking like a lewd pervert but rather like his professional self, Tancred walked up to Adriana and smiled. "You must be the Vernesian representative. I am Tancred Calcos, Foreign Minister of Lundastal. Shall we head off to the site of our meeting?"

Tancred retained his smile as he led her to his limosuine: "We'll be meeting at a conference room I've ordered for the purpose. You need not worry about security or anything like that."

Bumped.
