SENNHEISER UNION INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE 224, FOREDIR CITY, The Sennheiser Union - NIGHT

| As nightfall began to spread over FOREDIR CITY, life began to become vibrant as normal citizens rushed home from work. OSSIAN KARI is not one of those citizens, however. OSSIAN works for the SUIC offices, and was scheduled to work the nightshift. Hundreds if not thousands of messages went through the SUIC every day, so communications officers like himself are forced to work overnight to answer and wire messages back and forth. |

| OSSIAN yawned in boredom quietly to himself and looked to his dual monitor office space. One monitor was filled with e-mails and e-telegrams, all waiting to be either wired or responded too. The secondary monitor displayed a chat room with the executive officer of the shift. OSSIAN watched the main display, as nothing new popped up- |

Ding!

New Mail (1) Recieved

| -until then. OSSIAN groaned as he leaned forward, double clicking the new message. The message appeared and he read it in full. |

NATION: Evrigenis

The PQ has finished her previous business and would like to meet with you soon. When and where would you like to meet?
We thank you for your hospitality,
Glaucon
The Queen's Hand
Office of the Philosopher Monarch

| _{OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer} | Evrigenis? What the hell is that?

| Though this question ran in his head for quite some time, he brushed it off and moved the cursor to the chat room and typed. |

Ossian Kari; CO-82

The nation of Evrigenis requests a meeting with the SU. They ask when and where the meeting will be held.

| OSSIAN waited for a bit, roughly for fifteen minutes, and he got his response. |

Jaakkima Kivimäki; XCO

copy and paste this message
"Hierarch Klaus Inha will be present to meet with your delegation. The meeting will be held at the Käila Delegations Office in the Senateer City-state. You may choose a time which fits you, however please notify us of your departure from Evrigenis."

| OSSIA drug the cursor across the text and copied it. He pulled the cursor over to the maim screen and pasted it into the textbox. He then added a few tweaks here and there, the he read over it. |

TO: Office of the Philosopher Monarch, Evrigenis

_{Serviced by CO-82}

| OSSIAN stared at the text, knowing well enough something was missing. His fingers ran across the low profile keyboard once again. |

_{Serviced by CO-82 +1}

| _{OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer} | There we go.

| He clicked the 'SEND' button below the textbox, and the response was sent back to Evrigenis, wherever that was. OSSIAN leaned back in his chair to see his friend, TOIVA, come down the hallway towards the stairs. |

| _{OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer} | "Where the hell do you think you're going?"

| _{TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer} | "Home, that's where. If you have a problem with it, you can shove it up your-"

| _{OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer} | "Okay, okay. Calm down there, man."

| They both exchange a laugh. |

| _{OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer} | "Hey, before you leave, can you get me a coffee? Haven't slept well before I came."

| _{TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer} | "You sly bastard."

| They exchange laughs again and TOIVA walks down the hall to the coffee machine. |

| _{TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer} | "Just for that I'll put sugar and creamer in it."

| _{OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer} | "If you do, I'll slaughter you for it!"

| _{TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer} | "Love you too, mate!"

| TOIVA turns the corner, leaving OSSIAN chuckling. He leans back in his chair and closes his eyes. And to think he'll get off at three in the morning, with a day off waiting for him as a reward. |
