Itomi, Vurbentan Rim, Ryccian Empire

The Ryccian diplomats were annoyed. Are they to tolerate this insulting behaviour? It would appear so. But, for the country, for the Empire, they shall need to swallow their pride, hide their anger and tolerate the insult. After all, the Empire cannot afford to make enemies of outsiders so rapidly. They may be needed in the future, in one way or another.

Carl thought of the proposal. Utilizing his yacht for a historical visit? It would certainly be an honour. However, he feared for his prized possession. After all, it did cost a fortune. It was handcrafted by an expert artisan group, no less. If it got damaged, that would be most unpleasant. Moreover, it was his personal property, where he spent some of his private time. To allow foreigners and politicians to use his vessel for official state business would turn to be...strange, to say the least.

But, for the country, Carl would accept. And, who knows? Perhaps there is an opportunity to turn part of his ship in some profitable attraction...the idea may be far-fetched, but it is there...

"That is an acceptable proposal, Captain. The appropriate accomodations shall be done on this ship. If the King consents and I am not present, do tell from my part that I hope he enjoys his time in my personal vessel, and to take care of it as if it was his own, for it is certainly expensive"
