The Hai Emperor looks up from his pile of papers.
"Some tea would surely not harm me. I have been working very hard to achieve the restoration of the empire and I feel some rest and relaxation is in order."

The Second Princess seemed very happy with the response. It had been a while since she had seen her brother in person. Leading a country came before family, certainly when your brother was the most elevated and powerful person in Jingdao.
"Thank You, Blessed Brother of mine."
An hour later, they sat in front of each other, sipping of their tea.
"Brother, I know this should be a time of relaxation, but I have some worries and want to address them to you personally."

Re: Let's have some tea
"Dear brother, it came to my attention that the little coup against king Noah has led to severe unrest and chaos in Benacia. Batavians are fleeing the countryside and are attempting to reach Badawei. Reports about mass murders by firing shells towards our border (and killing hundreds of innocent refugees while doing so) are not unheard of. The situation is grave, and I would like to have approval to lead a humanitarian action to rescue those poor Batavians and let them in."

"Let them in!?" exclaimed the Hai Emperor. "I assume you mean that they are moving towards Tianhoucheng. I doubt the city could hold so many people, what do you propose, we resettle them on Nandao?"

"Blessed brother, I understand Your doubts, and as usual You are right. But no, not Nandao. I hoped to send them to lands which once belonged to them... that would include the few isles and territory in south Benacia. And, with a bit of luck, the Brettish will welcome some refugees themselves. The country once was Batavian and is in dire need of more people to settle. We could at least ask them."

Re: Let's have some tea
The Hai Emperor knew that there was little point in arguing with his sister. She had taken the plight of the Batavian people to her heart. He only hoped she would survive the ideal as the maniac who now ruled Shireroth seemed so intent to escalate the already precarious situation into a full-blown war.
"I will tell my clerks to prepare your diplomatic papers and a submarine for you. You have my full confidence and can speak with the Brettish lords as my representative. Good luck dear sister and please make it back in one piece."
