The Abbyusid Sultan sends word that since the emissaries of the great nations have not seen fit to meet in his own lands, he will consent to send a man to Rome.

Minswar dully looked at the dancers as they swirled around the floor, sitting in the hot halls all day dealing with dignitaries and officials of the Caliphate was the part of ruling he did not care much for. He wanted to be out in the field, fighting for God and the people. It should be HE and not the old relic of a father out there fighting, Iberia was in turmoil and all he was doing was eat, drink and "rule" what was self sustaining.
To the Northeast the Aragon King have fallen to our forces, a javelin basically having torn his head off mid-charge, His army left to rot in the sun.
To the West the Lazy king of Portugal was killed in his bed as our forces stormed the city, the main Portuguese army having been eluded.
Sighing once again, he withdrew to his harem letting the feast continue without him. A ship would take him to Iberia on the morrow, to then sail to Rome with an emissary.

I will continue my story post tomorrow, It's already 12 am now...
The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
(4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.

Abu Fadi El-Amin paces into the courtroom in Rome, a distinct frown evident upon his face. He looks around at the room, paying particular attention to the guards.
Hgh, Alexandria would have been better. Ghulams are far better disciplined than this lot. He mutters
Likely to stab us in the back, don't you think? He says, turning to face the second man that has entered the room.
This man is dressed in military attire, but the emerald studded leather under-layers of his armor, and the gold trimmed silks he wears show he is no mere soldier. He walks with an easy gait, and unlike Fadi he seems quite at ease as he paces over to take a seat at the table.
Hardly a fitting way to enter another man's court Fadi. Come, let us sit and we shall see what is to come to pass.
Fadi still looks troubled, but he takes a seat by the second man's side, still eying the guards. The second man turns from his comrade and gives a friendly smile to the gathered diplomats.
Please excuse him, he has been quite grumpy ever since we left Alexandria, I think the ship didn't agree with him.
Fadi give an indistinct grunt at this
In any case, allow me to introduce myself, I am Hamil al Azir, military advisory and friend of the Sultan, my sea sick friend is Abu Fadi El-Amin. The Sultan has sent us here to ensure that the Abuyyids are not forgotten in world affairs. I hope you will introduce...
Fadi interrupts Hamil at this
I intend to do more than that, and just in case our host gets any idea, a full guard of Ghulams waits outside. If you try anything...
Hami rolls his eyes at this, but remains silent.
