The Empress of Ice
Shitpost Overlord
Ignorant brat...
Arthur gave Mika a slight glare before continuing with his breakfast, he was not pleased with the Queen's decision of bring Mika around yet he had not enough power to engage with her decisions. Frustrated, he ignored the girl and instead he would add bits and pieces to the conversation between the nobles. They seemed more calm then before, anticipating the meeting ahead. Especially Ser Joshua as he would exchange excited glances with the Queen.
She, herself, found Tannis to be too nice and somehow it made her smile genuinely. How long ago was it that she met such a selfless man? She could not remember... Well she could but it would only bring her to tears. And so she tried to distract herself by adding to the conversation. "Is that so. Then I'd enjoy to ride along that course then... Do your children tend to be there a lot? The garden..."
Caroline shook her head with a light smile on. "Not much, recently they tend to stay inside since winter is coming. Though usually they tend to come along there during their workouts." She couldn't help but get a slight twinge of affection in her eyes as her children were mentioned but hid it quickly when it was time to go. Amelia took Tannis hand to once again be lead by him.
She had looked away when the two siblings talked privately. Instead she found herself addressing her own entourage with a serious face. "Now, I suppose you have enjoyed my kindness as I haven't addressed your gossiping at all but for now I want you to show that indeed; you aren't some old hags in an inn, drinking tea. I want you to show why I picked you as my entourage, because if I'm not delusional; you are the best politics of the royal kingdom of Elador, no?" Her voice was low yet strong enough to make the ladies of the kingdom smirk. This is why they loved working with Amelia and they all replied with a serious yes. The women which had been merely seconds ago nobles were now opinionated ladies with a mind of their own, listening to their Queen. The men turned from spoiled lords to confident politicians, their gaze set on the doors which would lead them to work.
And so Amelia followed the King to the meeting room, taking her seat while Caroline muttered about how she always was on her best behavior but she herself gained a smirk as she listened to Ray. She had promised to let the kids listen through their bond and they had rolled their eyes multiple times at their mother.
I bet the hag doesn't know half of what was said. What you think, kids?
Sheesh Mother, you do know that this hag of yours is a queen right?
Pfft, a queen my arse.

"I find the treaty suitable yet the three month visit may be to long. But this is to be discussed later on in private between me and King Tannis, I insist. I have already decide on who to leave behind to take care of things while I'm away. Lady Kierra Heine from the noble family of Haynn. She is young but perhaps the best in the field of economics." Amelia uttered before she waved Mika over, quietly telling her to note down the meeting so she can review it for herself later on. Her tone let noone object to the point where she would discuss privately with the King but indeed her words made Lester, one of the more strategic politicians in her entourage, frown.
"My Queen, I would recommend Ileana for that instead; she has countless years of experience and her view point of the Arcanum Families affairs have proven that point. But then again, it is your choice, My Majesty." He objected slightly but the respect for his queen in his voice was not easy to miss. It shocked Caroline a bit but made her frown, who was this Arcanum Families? Some idiotic nobles perhaps. Yet she didn't have to much time to ponder on that as the same blonde man spoke again. "On the other hand we'd also have to discuss the Royal Kingdom of Lotham. I think they will come from the west since they conquered the Republic of Orxcanila and if my resources are correct then they will head for Elador next before striking Florencia; they would obviously need more power before they would strike such a heavy armored land. This also gives them access to Florencia's flanks from the Kingdom of Elador's protection." He had asked one of the servants to bring him a map and ink. Drawing on the map after asking for permission, he showed what he meant as he spoke.
"I know that Ileana has done not only well but exceptionally in the cases of the Arcanum Families but we need a fresh mind, especially since the Arcanum Families were more organized in their economics. Kierra was chosen due to her argument in the change of the tax-system which quite honestly was groundbreaking." Amelia responded to Lester and Caroline felt more confused about the whole ordeal but the rest of Amelia's entourage nodded in understanding. The Queen took a deep breath as she continued with her speech. "The king would expect us to take action but instead I think we should move our knights steadily over to the places where we deem necessary while not causing suspicion? But then again, I had come for help so what do you think; King Tannis?"
