"In the interest of time during this deeply urgent period, I have decided to skip out on formalities and protocols," Emperor Rael declared. "Let us begin the negotiations without further ado."
"Your Majesty, please deploy aid to the Kingdom of Namia!"
"Your Majesty, our country has been overrun with beasts and monsters. Please find it in your heart to spare us a few Martial Masters!"
"Emperor Rael, we seek your desperate help. You are the only one who can save the people of the Commonwealth Duchy of Vinfrana!"
The second the negotiations began, the various leaders immediately leaped out at the opportunity to beg for aid from the Emperor of Harmony. In that moment, he was the only one who could possibly help many of them.
Unfortunately for them, he was not in a mood to entertain their requests.
"Enough." He raised a hand. "I have already made a decision."
The air grew electric as each and every one of them grew nervous and anxious.
