Yukiyama was, instead of using a prepared vessel for her, using a small escort, consisting of her two Kaigun-Shoshos. The three Tora's entered the atmosphere after given permission to land on Toulouse. The spaceport was already in their sight, it was only a few hundred meters away, their ships slowly lowered their speed and hovered over the platform. "Konoe 1 and Konoe 2, I will take it on my own from here, no need to show the Council any kind of mistrust." She said. The two ships that accompanied her instantly moved out and flew towards the sky again, leaving her alone there while she was slowly making her landing approach. Her eyes made a swift movement to the big building which posed as the Council's headquarters, she could already see a man standing there.

She got out of her cockpit, wearing her traditional heavy armor for this very, if not the most important, meeting of her life. There was a wind blowing her hair behind, it was going in her direction, luckily, the way to the building wasn't as long, she felt that it was a good decision to send her Shosho's away. Showing trust and respect is the first way of earning the same back she thought as she entered the large building. The design was typically gallic. Toulouse overall was a space where she could see that the people of Gallia were no blind and violent conquers, they were normal, just like any other person, but trapped in a kingdom controlled by a maniac. The people that lived under the control of the Council were exactly like this, with the one golden exception: a government consisting of peaceful people, seeking to overthrow the throne and freeing the people, just like it was supposed to be. While Yukiyama despised the royalists, one thing which was common all across Sirius, was that the art of Gallia's architecture was as beautiful as few other things. One thing Kusari and Gallia had in common, their traditional and beautiful way of designing buildings and similar. She was in no way alone in this building, a lot of people were looking at her, some of them clothed like generals and other high ranked military and government officials, but nobody as armored as she was. She certainly was not playing to boost her ego or try to crush other one's, she knew that while walking around like this in the Imperial Kusari was normal for her, but in Roussillon, it was most likely rather uncommon for someone entering a meeting with full blown war gear. She left her weapons at home, as part of the "showing trust" move, instead, she had her red cape on her back, which added to the certain flavor that her armor was showing. This meeting would most likely look colorful when everyone would show up in their traditional high ranked outfits. The meeting room was just ahead of her, she had a piece of paper with her, rolled together. She put it in one of her pockets and stood in front of the door. She adjusted her armor again and pulled it straight, clearing her throat and then pushing the door open.

The first thing she noticed was, of course, Pierre LaFlamme, who was standing at the window and looking at the city of Toulouse. Since she opened the door rather quietly and hasn't made any sound yet, she might have yet remained unnoticed, she used the second to look through the room, which had a big table in the middle of it where they would sit and discuss,as well as a few decorations but that was about it. But it was also not necessary, concentrating on the meeting was more important. She took one step ahead and was now directly in front of the table, facing LaFlamme's back. Without him seeing her, she bowed down respectfully. "Misuta Pierre LaFlamme, it is an honor for me to finally meet you in person." She said and remained in her position until he would notice her.
