Rabanastre - Royal Palace 703 Alto Valendiano

* A few days before the official announcement of Ashe's Engagement *

In the years that followed, the relations between Nabradia and Dalmasca had always been more numerous, especially with regard to state affairs. Dalmasca had to import some basic necessities that otherwise alone it was hard to find, in exchange Nabradia benefited from some tax breaks on what was important to Dalmasca.

The respective sovereigns had no problems of any kind, especially political and diplomatic, over the years both Endimion and Raminas were visiting each other politely.

In their travels it often happened that they brought with them their family or sent one of them to represent them. With the years that passed above all the principles of the respective sovereigns grew, knowing each other.

Ashe's family had been invited to the wedding of the first son of Endimion with the daughter of one of the most illustrious noble families of Nabradia.

The girl was very beautiful in the typical Nabradian dress. The event had taken place years before, even then Raminas wondered about the future of his children, he noticed little Ashe and Ondine joking with the young son of Endimion, Rasler.

That day he had finally arrived.

For several hours the airship of Nabradia, the Nautilus, which escorted Prince Rasler and his retinue had finally arrived at the private airfield of the royal family Dalmasca.

Ronnah, General Biran and his nephew Dunya welcomed him. The latter was the son of Vossler a few years older than Rasler, a very tall boy whose physical appearance was very reminiscent of his father. Along with them was also a Nabradian diplomat Bahar Asprea a man in his forties.

Besides them there are some dalmasche guards. As planned, the Nabradan prince was greeted with honors.

"Your Highness, Lord Ralser is a great pleasure for me to see myself again. I hope the journey was comfortable, "asked Prince Ronnah, taking a step towards the young Rasler.

"It was all very quiet Lord Ronnah. Even for me it is a pleasure to see you again, how is your father? My father gives you his greetings and he apologizes if he could not come but- the tone of his voice became serious, while Rasler lowered his eyes as General Biran intervened.

"You must give us no explanation, Lord Rasler, we have known."

- In this regard, grandfather, I would like to say that later General Basch and my father are waiting for us to discuss the details. - said Dunya approaching his grandfather.

"As far as I can see you have already brought forward the Dalmaschi," said a man stepping forward in the wake of Prince Rasler.

"Who are you?" Said Dunya, looking at him from head to toe.

"He is Sir Forz, he is my general. He had the task of accompanying me to my father, King Endimion. "Said Rasler.

"Who else is traveling with you?" Asked Ronnah, intrigued.

"In addition to escorting your ambassador, Lord Erden," the boy said, pointing to Ambassador Dalmasco, who, seeing himself summoned, stepped forward to offer his praises to his prince.

-Principe Ronnah I'm honored to see me. Faram be merciful with you. "The Dalmasco ambassador took a deep bow before Prince Ronnah, who returned the salute, bowing his head slightly.
