The Bretonian ambassador was waiting in the lobby of the Ministry to be received. But to her, that was not a sure thing. Appointing a woman to serve as an ambassador in Kusari was already an intentional snub by Bretonia, an ironic jest on Kusarian patriarchal traditions. This was done when Kusari trespassed through Tau 31, but the ambassador was not actually meant to have much correspondence with the House. Bretonia never formally broke diplomatic relations in fear from invoking actual wrath and especially causing the retraction of humanitarian aid, but effectively, the two Houses hadn't spoken since the incident. But, left alone by a Liberty disinterested in the Taus, Bretonia had to rethink the degree of reliance on its ally and consider an alternative plan.
Her name was Henriette Blunt and she was appointed more for her feminist beliefs than a record of competence. But the task of mending the relations of the two Houses now lay on her back. If the Kusarians receive her at all, the Bretonians believed, that would be a sign that they have good will and that the negotiations can start per normal procedure.
