The Southwark Summit

[Crayter Republic]

---

Minister Ward was stunned at her first dish of the night. The prawns before her looked somewhat delectable but the assortment of clashing tastes made her remember what "Sirian cuisine" looked like as she yearned for the local seafood from Yuma. After eating a prawn and trying the cucumber to follow, she apologized to the Prime ministers "My apologies, I wasn't so well informed. This venture has been really last minute for me. Had we known about this summit sooner I'm sure President Ellis would have certainly been delighted to have joined us." As the meal continued Minister Kojirou, who was seated to Wards left, leaned over "Do you think they'll give us a live one to take home? I would keep one as a pet!" as he wiggled a prawn over his plate with his fork. "It's the only good thing in this meal." Lily gave a polite giggle back "Would you keep it in a bowl or a pond?" Minister Kojirou paused to think "Hmmm, a bowl. They don't look like they need much." Lily would leave the consommé mostly untouched as the waiters whisked away the finished meal.
