Si vis pacem...

[Nekrotalis]

Despite the large ruckus all around her Alise got the feeling that someone or something was shifting their attention to her. If she had not found the right person own her own, someone at least noted her presence. “Well at least something.” This thought crossed her mind as she heard the man´s voice and the right corner of her mouth pulled slightly upwards, fully aware that this unknown person had cut off the most obvious escape route. Not only the Bundschuh use this tactic, she has witnessed this kind of scenario many times on Pacifica and at other meetings. It was as if she had already counted with it.

“Von Ravensberg” if I may insist on it. I assume you are the bodyguard of Miss. Haupt? And I would also prefer it, even though I understand that you want this to go your way, to choose where I sit.

She musters all the political politeness that was taught to her in her childhood. Alise only trusts the Bundschuh as far as she is able to toss them.
