Nimona entered the room with the gathered leaders and their bodyguards. She smiled in greeting to Minister Wilson and President Verlhan, both of whom she’d met in Arcadia, and nodded to Chief Petrovavich, whom she’d met with many times. She took the hands of those she hadn’t met and said brief greetings, before pulling out her phone and laying it on the table. Above it, a document appeared, the meticulously prepared Treaty.
At Tretrid’s insistence, she’d kept Article 4. Now that she saw that their ambassador had a sword, she felt no more secure in that decision than when she had agreed to it.
