The Golden Cage

[Loyola]

Enma slightly touched her spaghetti, carefully listening to Charlotte. She's looking grim and not amused. Nodding on every princess' statements and actually managed to taste it a little. Although she is hungry, she does not have even the slightest appetite. On the contrary, she is beginning to feel a light nausea. Really now? This food was suppose to be something that will help her to keep back on the track and now she can't just eat it. Besides Charlotte's behaviour was becoming more cheerful, which was exactly what she needed. But now she went out of condition by herself and will have to deal with it anyway.

She asked the maid for a glass of the sourish apple juice just to get rid off this nausea. She couldn't think about the food at the moment, as Charlotte finished, Enma is slightly bowing her head. "Thank you, your highness, what you said is quite correct which I had no doubt about. I would never think to question your education. " Loyola's train to stay polite and respectful, up to a degree she can. "As I said you are right here and there, but not too many people are willing to look at the situation from our angle. No one of the are interested or threat as the proper part of the human kind. We pay with the same coin and taking them as slaves. Isn't that fair? As for the drugs as you call it. " She paused and sipped the apple juice that was just offered up by the royal maid. "We did not make this choice, your highness, nor our fathers and grandfathers did. Wreck of the Sleepership named Hispania that you will find on the Maltese orbit is just proving that we do have a right to claim the same place in Sirius like all major Houses. " Another sip is taken, Enma have noticed that she's a little bit out of breath and that it's probably better to put it less emotional. "As for our methods, well, most of the humanity is hostile towards us and hunting us down. We are limited on manpower and resources. If you will make a war game for the Royal Navy staff with this conditions, I assure you, you will get the similar doctrine."

Loyola is looking at spaghetti again, but perspective to put that in her mouth felt bad still. "Also Cardamine is objectively having more positive than negative effects. I do believe that people hate it just because it's coming from us ." She's finishing the juice and asked for another one. This thing was pretty good, basing on the fact that it was the only product Loyola could consume at the moment. "As for our Kingdom, I perfectly understand the way you acting and honestly, deeply inside I'm envy. I have a few questiong regarding your politics, if your highness is willing to answer." She sounded the most respectfully. "First thing that is questioning me from here, is why do you protecting the Independent Miners Guild from us? Especially after their Tau-44 attempt? We striked to the home system, Coronado, shortly after Royal Navy had to retreat. IMG transports were building and supplying orbital instalations around planet Yuma. I was presonally trying to stop them. And few days later they have pulled their combat assets into the action side by side with Colonials. I really would like to know Crown's clarification on this, if there's any. "

Asking princess qurstions was actually interesting, Enma hoped they will have more time to spend together. Now she thought for a second. "Other topic is Kusari, you have estroyed their fleet and they have admitted defeat. But I don't see the Crown using this situation way too much. " Loyola is taking another glass of the apple juice, doing a big sip this time, she was about to finish her speach, so it's not looking impolite. "Well, as I said, it's just a my point of view as the outsider and there's a good explanation for sure. " Loyola made half-faked kind smile in the end, eating a bit of spaghetti to not look too strange.
