Our delegate Shan im Rahin arrives in full traditional armour (Khalkud tradition dictates that all negotiations should be conducted in armour, this is because long ago the Khalkud where tricked and had their sultan, and many other important officials slaughtered during false negotiations, it isnt really effective now but has survived as part of Khalkud culture) he is flanked by 6 guards. It took him 2 months just to arrive in Katphursiya. He says he needs to first learn Katphursiyan before negotiations can properly begin.
