Smasei Port
After the revolution, nearly all of the Qastari government's focus had turned inward. To reconstructing countrysides and cities, organizing workplaces, and building defenses as rapidly as they could. A few months ago however, they determined that the country had become sufficient enough to engage with the rest of the world again on a larger scale. The war between Fornoire and The Union was of interest, but they concluded not to get involved until the war was over, at risk of being seen as taking sides or dragged into the fighting. The time was now to start building relations with like minded and potentially friendly foreign powers, though. Conveniently enough, they were welcoming to Fornoire's request to have an audience.
Prince Yousef's plane had arrived a few km inland from Smasei. It was determined there was too much commotion going on in the capital for such a meeting. Two armed security guards and a guide courteously greeted the Prince, and began to escort him to the location of the meeting. They would arrive and board a newly constructed passenger train that connected the airport to the Smasei port and city center. The city was situated on the southern shore of the island in the bay which Qastari centered itself around. The port, heavily industrialized in the last five years, was built like a fortress after being used by the previous government as a naval port. However, the train would stop about a km inland on a hill. A much cleaner area where most of the city's offices and markets were located, and here the government offices of Smasei was located. Prince Yousef was finally escorted to the Qastari diplomat, in a meeting hall used by the council governing the island, receiving curious looks from the locals on the way.
The diplomat finally greeted Yousef. "Good to meet you, Prince Yousef. I hope our city has treated you well," motioning him to his seat, "What do you have to discuss for me today?"
