Kaheshi Embassy to the Kha'ni

[Joe Joerson]

The Kha'ni eagerly await the Kaheshi embassy, several ships have been retasked from other duties to wait for the envoy. Among these are the small military fleet that the Kha'ni maintain. Three outdated corvettes and a single aging destroyer. As well two small retrofitted cargo freighters.

Elsewhere in the system there are some meager traffic between Kha'to and Kha'mi. As well as the most of the Kha'ni space efforts in their solar system, based around their asteroid belt and comets to increase the resources of their control and to provide much needed water to certain regions of Kha'to and Kha'mi.

[Mthis]

The Kaheshi diplomatic envoy ship arrives in the system, sending the hails from the crownship and request access to Kha'to. The ship is the size of a Corvette, but clearly not a military vessel.

[Joe Joerson]

A transmission is sent back to the envoy ship from the destroyer.

A Kha'ni appears on the Screen, she wears a golden robe and a bronze mask. There is no actual background, only a monocolor black. She speaks.

"Greetings Kaheshi Envoy. We will escort you to Kha'to. Once there your ship may precede to these coordinates."

The full video transmission cuts off and the destroyer sends the coordinates.

[Mthis]

The coordiantes are accepted, as they await to follow the escorts to the Kha'to.

[Joe Joerson]

The Four ships of the Kha'ni navy move in front and the freighters move after.

On the planet the coordinates seem to lead to a landing complex slightly into the ground. It is near by a large canyon which has large energy readings coming it. At the landing site there are ships of different empires including the R'lyeh and Kreazi. As well there are numerous Kha'ni guards stations around the site, they seemed primarily concerned with things getting into the site than people leaving. Most of the guards have weapons similar to Goedendags, though some have projectile rifles. Notably the only ones with Projectile rifles are wearing full sand colored robes and masks.

Once on the Ground the Kha'ni inform the Kaheshi of where to contact an official to arrange a meeting with the Protector, as well they inform Kaheshi the locations of provided quarters if they would prefer to use them.

[Mthis]

The Kaheshi envoy nods, and bows and follows the instructions and sends for a contact to an Official to arrange such a meeting straight away.

[Joe Joerson]

Such a date is arranged for a few days hence.

[Mthis]

The Kaheshi Diplomat and entourage would be excited for this meeting, the envoy for the meeting on the Kaheshi's part consists of a Noble-Aristocratic Diplomat, two soldiers, a scientist, and a navy-commander.

[Joe Joerson]

The provided Quarters are inside the nearby canyon, there are various levels each with crosswalks and holes breaching into the sides of the canyon appearing to be a massive city complex inside the canyon. One section almost devoid of Kha'ni is cordoned off by Guards and is the location of the Kaheshi Quarters provided by the Kha'ni. There are also many Black Robed Kha'ni checking electronic devices in the upper walls of the canyon near the connection to the surface. Though many more Kha'ni can be seen in the rest of the city, few Black Robed ones can be seen except in very tight bunches leading large groups of Kha'ni slowly through the streets, some sort of ceremony.

Some of the Kha'ni with sand colored robes and masks can be seen moving through the crowds below. Other Kha'ni appear to dart out of the path the Sand Robed Kha'ni take.

[Mthis]

The Kaheshi would for the msot part stay in their assigned quarters, talking amongst each other and relaxing, as well as going over the things the Kings the Government has given them to ask the Kha'ni about. Mainly as they wait to meet the leader of the Kha'ni. Only the Naval Commander wanders around if allowed to see things.

[Joe Joerson]

The Naval Commander is allowed to roam the cavern-city however is strongly cautioned about going out into the desert alone. If the Commander does go out in the city they would find that the Kha'ni workers move out the way creating a kind of bubble a meter from the Commander. The only ones who do get with this range are either masked and robed or priests.

[Mthis]

The Naval-Commander just moves around and studies everything slowly, takking in the sights, almost sight-seeing one could call it.

[Joe Joerson]

Aside from workers' homes there are only a few other types of establishments in the city. Several large distribution centers of some kind, various temples, and some governmental offices that don't seem to have any workers that don't work there in the area. There seem to be no shops, however some stands very simple boards and pieces of Tchick'ah, while some stands offer blessed trinkets and charms, and others offer a kind of small brick of unknown qualities. Similar bricks are distributed from the distribution centers.

[Mthis]

The Naval-Commander just observes it all before heading back to his assigned quarters to wait.

[Joe Joerson]

At the appointed day an Iridescently Robed Kha'ni and several Kha'ni with the Sand Robes, Masks as well as carrying rifles came. They would take the delegates via an underground rail to the Protector's palace. There they would have audience with the Protector. But first they are taken to a large waiting hall.

[Mthis]

The Kaheshi wait patiently in the hall, talking amonst each other casually.

[Joe Joerson]

They are granted admittance into the Protector's presence. Inside the room, very large more like a hall or Cathedral as there are various images of religious significance on the walls. A Golden Masked and White Robed Kha'ni sits upon a throne. Several Iridescently robed Kha'ni stand along the sides of a central a central aisle. Four Black Robed Kha'ni and Four Iridescently Robed Kha'ni stand by the throne. In addition there are many Sand Masked and Robed Kha'ni with rifles lined around the walls. The Kaheshi are given the signal to approach and present themselves to the Protector.

[Mthis]

The Kaheshi move up and bow before talking "Greetings Protector. I am Sra'Kri the Noble Ambassador of the Crownship of Sa, and this is my envoy, representing the largest factions within the court."

He gestures to them all in turn as he says their names "Tra'Ko of the Royal Science Division, Commander Hra'Sira of the Royal Navy, and Gra'Va and Kra'Si of the Royal army as my personal escort. We have been waiting eagerly to meet you, to help solidify the freindship between our Nations."

[Joe Joerson]

Two of the Iridescently Robed Kha'ni and Two of the Black robed Kha'ni step forward from their positions near the Protector's throne and speak in unison.

"The Protector Greets all of you, Sra'Kri, the Noble Ambassador of the Crownship of Sa, Tra'Ko, of the Royal Science Division, Commander Hra'Sira, of the Royal Navy, Gra'Va, of the Royal army, and Kra'Si, of the Royal army. For what reason have you come before the Protector?"

[Mthis]

Sra'ki nods and looks at the two Black Robed Kha'ni before talking.

"We wish to further solidify freindship between our nations. By encouraging trade between our peoples and free movement of civilians if you will allow it. The Crownship thinks highly of those it considers its freinds, whom they can stand side by side with against the dangers this universe might impose on all of us. Only through mutual cooperation and understanding, respect, and mutual progress, will we all prosper and ensure our lives are secure."

[Joe Joerson]

The Four Kha'ni, Two Black Robed and Two Iridescent Robed, step back to the Protector's Throne. He speaks very softly to them. They step forward again.

"The Protector Accepts your proposal. However there is one condition, that those who Break laws in Kha'ni or Kaheshi territory be subject to the local law rather than their mother country's law. Excepting of course those given diplomatic immunity. We can discuss this point."

[Mthis]

"A set of codified laws would be appreciated, we shall bring a translated form of ours to you if you so desire, for this to be better."

[Joe Joerson]

The four Kha'ni standing forward nod. They speak again.

"A copy of our laws will be provided. We would accept a copy of your laws. Is there anything more?"

[Mthis]

"We only ask for more open trade between our nations and exchange of resources, this will strenghten the ties between our peoples on a commercial level among the baseline citizens and consumers."

[Joe Joerson]

The Four Kha'ni speak again.

"The Protector will allow this, provided the previous conditions are met. Is there anything more?"
