Oh hoho, I think it’s been a while since I’ve been there!

We’ve regrettably been without such a blessing. Upon our return there were many a lesson to be learned. And there is no rubric to the knowledge of a millennia’s passing.

I for one consider everyday to be a fantastic opportunity to learn!

Well, I have been tutored recently on how to properly receive a foreign dignitary.

Ah yes… The dreaded foreign dignitary. Advisory in a conflict with stakes too great to lose, but impossible to win.

I had no idea.

And I thought I was the only one stressing out over their visit!

Far be it, Cadance. There can be no “friendly visit” when it comes to foreign affairs. One must receive them warmly, and make every effort not to offend. But also demonstrate your might and inspire awe. Affirm your solidarity to allies, and establish your dominance to the ambitious. And all in tandem. For today’s comrade is tomorrow’s political rival. And if you’re lucky then… Are you transcribing our conversation?

Me? Oh, I’m taking notes! This is incredible information! A first-hoof account, no less!
