Broken Crescent 3 Diplomacy: Progress

**Ibn-Khaldun** · 08-08-2008, 23:55

Abbasid Emissary looks towards the Turkish Emissary ans says..

This shall not be forgotten! You really think that they will welcome among themselves? Soon you will be torn into peaces by those new 'friends' of yours! Watch my words! From this day on I can not call you a True Muslim and a follower of the Islam! This saddens the Caliph very much!

The Georgian diplomat announces:
"We are most pleased that the Turks wish to ally with us - and naturally agree. However, the Abbasid Caliphate obviously shows some close-mindedness. Free people are by nature free, and Kings of all denomination are more than us others. If the Turkish Sultan wishes to forgo his brothers of religion, such is his choice."

A new Roman ambassador is sent to these meetings

We welcome the Turks as one of our own. Surely if pagans are welcome, then an honourable Turkish nation is as well. I would consent to a defensive alliance at this time with our great neighbors.

Honoured Turk, we thank you for agreeing to join our defensive coalition. This will do wonders to ease the tensions between the Christians and the Golden Crescent Alliance.

With a peaceful settlement between Oman and Makuria, there need not be any conflict at all. Is that possible, honourable Caliph? I know the departure of the Turks so abruptly may be upsetting, but in your wisdom I know that you can see tensions beginning to cool.

Let us not begin this new era of progress together with petty bloodshed.

I would like to say, if the Omani diplomat does not learn to soften his tongue, I will be the final Roman emissary sent to these proceedings. As it stands, there is a council opening in Constantinople, and only out of RESPECT for the other delegates present here, does the Roman Emperor even summon the patience to send another dignitary on his behalf.

The Diplomacy building's doors would open very slowly, Seeing a VERY old man with a cane maybe moving at a turtles rate... The young Omani's diplomat stood up from the Host's chair and ran to the upper floors.. out of sight.. As the doors would open up, there would be at least ten Mamluk Guards would be watching him, with a Gaint chair in the back of sight, Obviously being caried to the Door... Perhaps a sign of respect, and even self respect.
The Old man would look up and smiled at every one at the court, Then continued at a turtles rate toward the grand chair that the Young diplomat that had sat on. No Mamluk guards come to even serve him, to show that He was just a man like every one else.

Dear... Friends.. I of the.. Oman trade empire.. I am the... Great Imam.. Marshed...

The Great Imam would start to have a serious cough, but as the Mamluks came to aid, he waved them off and tried his best to follow foward, He simply sipped on the wine that was obviously old from the Young diplomat.. and continued.

I am soo.. delighted to see that.. Most of the Empires that have.. seen through the darkness of... time.. have.. been able to survive so long.. through out history...... Every empire has a story.. Every empire has a leader... a Mortal Leader... I... am amungst them of Mortal Leaders... Yet.. Mortal Leaders are nothing more.. than you fine Diplomats.. that wish to speak for your proud.. empires.. It is the very fact that Diplomats.. have been come here.. is a blessing of Allah... or Christ... I have vowed to Allah to stay here until the end... Having to hear that.. that.. the meeting was not going as planned...

I.. am however very... sad that the.. Marukian Diplomats.. have not reached here... to this table of.. diplomacy.. Though... I did hear that.. the Empires of Christ... Declined our trade proposals.. to link the world's, trade... bringing far east to far west.. and Far west to far east...?

The Great Imam would look around for the Jerusalem Diplomat... not seeing one present he frowned, showing some obvious skin disorders from old age on his face.

**Warmaster Horus** · 08-09-2008, 10:56

Great Imam, I believe I speak on behalf of all here when I thank you for having made your way here. However, I - still speaking on behalf of all here, I hope - think it was both unecessary and maybe foolish to do this. Unecessary, because we are diplomats, and you have one such servant here... although he has left just as you entered... And foolish, on account of your old age. In T'Bilisi, a note would have sufficed.
But I respect you all the more for it. The Kingdom of Georgia has seen its esteem for Islamic nations go down recently, and you have brought it up - to new heights! I respect, and applaud you for that.

**Merlox** · 08-09-2008, 11:54

The Great Imam smiled at the Georgian.

I Thank.. you for the politeness... There was reports, that christian's seemed alittle.... too agressive..? though... you noble proud diplomat of the Kingdom... of Georgia show great respect... and for that, I think little.. of what news was sent.. to me... Who ever.. shows this much respect.. to any one... even if it is to some one that is very different.. in all spectrums.. I applaud you... or.. i'll try...
The great imam made a gurgling sound for laughing, then returned to a wicked cough, which caused the guards to jump up again, but they were met with the angry hand wave.
I am happy to hear this Georgian... I hope all of my wares.. goods.. services can suffice.. if you need any thing more... or personal diplomacy... please meet me.. in my chambers... I.. may be old... but it brings my heart much energy.. when I come into this room.. with so many.. facinating.. people..

The servents brought him and all of the guests water.

It is not wares, goods and services we require, but we wish the one item you cannot peddle in market stalls across cities: peace, and the assurance of peace.
It is not an item one man can normally promise, but you can keep your Golden Crescent Confederation on a tighter leash than you have until now. And of course, with that leash, you can assure the rest of the world peace.

Quttub rises to speak - he has what appears to be a scaly rash all over his hands, which he wrings together nervously as he addresses the gathering.

The Turks are most welcome to ally with whom ever they please - we well understand their desire for peace with their neighbours, a desire for security which is shared by the great Salahuddin.

There is no ill feeling from the Sultan of Egypt towards the Turkish Sultan for his decision to exit the Golden Crescent Confederation - he wishes only peace and prosperity for the Turkish people as a result of the decision.

It is fortunate for the Turks that their neighbours do not spurn their offers of peaceful alliance as the King in Jerusalem has done with Egypt's...or altogether ignore their entreaties as the Makurians have done...or, indeed, reject for no reason an offer of trading rights as has the Khan.
