"Princess Zora," Jinom returns her bow. "It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."
"Yours as well. Thank you for coming to see us. It has been a most fruitful visit."
"Indeed, I must admit, I wasn't sure what to expect from this meeting. It's the first time I've ever met with your people in a formal capacity."
"Oh, and how did you find it?"
"It wasn't all that different from how my people do things. Although your audience hall was rather empty. Usually whenever a royal audience is called, the throne room is packed with courtiers and nobility of every stripe. All there to be entertained by the proceedings or catch up on the latest gossip. This was empty by comparison."
"Quieter too I imagine." The Zora Princess replies, a smile creasing her lips.
"Well not really, your brother was loud enough to make up for it."
The princess sighs. "He can be... over eager. It's he doesn't mean to be rude he just has a lot weighing on him."
"I get that. My older brother was kind of like that too. Being the heir to a kingdom certainly can effect a person."
"It does, but that can't be made into an excuse for bad behavior." She says growing firmer. "Attitudes like his stir up trouble and that isn't what is needed right now with a war on our borders. Father understands that, but he's too protective to realize that he'll strangle what he wants to protect by holding on so tight." The princess vents, her face twisted in frustration. When she looks at Jinom though, she immediately returns to the demure posture she had assumed when they'd first met and the mask of politeness returns to her face.
So, all is not as well with the Zora as Jinom had first assumed. But now the princess is on her guard and such an outburst might require more teasing out than before.
>Tease out more from the princess. She clearly has a lot on her mind and wants to let it out.>Return to more polite topics. It would be best to build up more rapport than risk angering the princess by seeming like a spy.>You've used up enough of the princess's time it's time to go.Include any specific topics you wish to bring up with the princess with your vote.
