[IC] An Outdoors Meeting

"I suppose all is well. You are well acquainted with the joys and difficulties of life within the Imperial Family." Still looking at the suit, Justinian kept drinking his tea.

A few seconds passed, with people in surrounding tables drinking their tea, while reading newspapers or looking at the nearby City Forest. A marvel of the natural world, the City Forest had been built before the Peninsular War, on the personal order of the Prince. At the time, Kalos was boasting that its cities were architectural wonders, second to none in their beauty. In response, the Prince had ordered that parks be built in all important cities. In Byzantium, the capital, he built a particularly large park. According to many, it was larger than many medium-sized cities. In honour to its size, the park was called the City Forest.

Today, the Forest was a place where everyone could relax from the hectic life in the city, or hike and explore the vast roads and paths that could be discovered and rediscovered on any given day. One could be hard pressed to find someone who truly knew the Forest.

Taking a deep breath, Justinian finally spoke.

"As much as I do enjoy spending some anonymous time in the city, I assume you had a reason for asking that we specifically meet outside the Palace?"
