On the Shores of the Golden Coast (Nevarran-Yaijian Thread)

[Faust]

Nevarra wasn't particularly known for its navy in any regard. Being a mostly landlocked nation they wouldn't have a force to go on the offensive in the seas but the reverse was also true as they would mostly be concerned with defending and attacking on land. The Nevarran 'Navy' consisted mainly of convoy and transport vessels to facilitate marine trade through their only waterway and to prevent any sort of harassment from any enterprising privateers either along the coasts or in the deep blue. Fording the great divide between the eastern and western continents would be a woman tasked with facilitating relations and determining the Yaiji Empire.

Naomi Calle stood on the deck of the transport and could make out the the growing landmass in the distance being the rumored Golden Coast, at least, thats what it was referred to back in the homeland. While the Yaiji have been known to the world before the many conflicts surrounding the eastern half of Ouhiri has left many occupied and insular in their focus. But now, in this ear where many are experiencing a breadth of peace many are looking outward to the world at large. Rumors have spread, the origin of the name 'Golden Coast' having passed the lips of businessmen who were said to have struck prior deals of minor trade. In reality these deals were rarely long-lasting but Senora Calle was looking to change that. Her mission was clear, to speak with a representative of the Empire of Yaiji and to hopefully recognize the sovereignty of another nation in Touli so long as their existence was not detrimental or harmful towards others of course.

These thoughts circled her head for quite awhile until the landmass became too large to ignore, blocking the horizon out and taking the whole of one's vision if facing directly towards it. The transport vessel would dock at the nearest port/harbor if available. Flanked by two Royal Guardsmen, Naomi Calle would step off and what she see would be...

(Let me know if im taking too much liberty with details.)

She would see a small port town. It was sparsely populated, as the major cities are in the interior. It might take a bit before she would find out that if she wanted to meet with the government she would have to head inland. She would also learn that the town was sending a caravan there leaving that day and if they wanted they could join it. It was highly recommended that they join the caravan as the local wildlife was not exactly kind to lone wanderers.

[Faust]

Ms. Calle would arrange along with her Guard to join up and follow with the caravan. Even though the journey was rather long she remained eager and full of resolve with a desire to see inland and one of the infamous cities of the Jaguar people. Whenever the caravan would embark so to would Ms. Calle and her Guard.

They would arrive at the capital city of Xōchimīlco. Here the caravan would point them towards the palace at the end of the main street. If they followed the road they would find themselves at the gates and have to identify themselves to the guards. The guards would look them over before they would be let in and eventually they would end up in a room inside the palace where a tlamacazqui was waiting for them. He would look them over before motioning them to sit and offering them a drink. It was a chili hot cocoa.

[Faust]

The guards would remain stoic but respectfully declined the beverage offered while Naomi would happily accept to be polite but also out of a sudden thirst that seem to arose during the trip towards the capital. Ms. Calle would sit and wait respectfully while the guards would remain posted on either side of her, keeping a straight face and their eyes only moving ever so slightly to take in the room of the palace they were in.

[Moshel-Generał]

The room had plenty of interesting things, including statues and jewels. The tlamacazqui would speak. "Welcome. I was informed that your nation wished to speak with us."

[Faust]

Naomi was caught off guard while her eyes were wondering about. "Oh! Yes forgive me its just that this place is very beautiful. Ahem. My name is Naomi Calle, I come from the Crowned Republic of Nevarra overseas. I was sent on behalf of His Majesty King Ernesto III of House Favela and the Nevarran Chamber. We were hoping to establish relations with the venerable nation and peoples of the Yaiji and perhaps establish a mutually rewarding trade. Yaiji is host to a lot of luxury goods and mineral resources and we were were wondering what it is in return you might want in exchange."
