Toshinori smiled at her. "My deepest apologies." - his tone was sincere or at very least he was very good at pretending to be. - "The Kusari Government wishes to inquire whether the house Bretonia still upholds its Tau claims from prior to the first Tau conflict or not. The treaty formed between the house Gallia and Kusari addresses certain Tau affairs too."

Before Toshinori could continue, his assistant came back. Two cups of Sunbucks, one for Ms. Blunt and one for himself. The minister himself, despite being open-minded, was nowhere close to being a fan of coffee.
