Sharah nodded, “I’m aware Eela. That is why I said I don’t know who is lucky.” Sharah may not have the years of experience Eela did, but the ones she had…were powerful and potent. Sharah thought it was poor planning if clothing could offend that it wasn’t a topic discussed before meeting. If it was such an insignificant question as to not needing to be asked, then why worry about it. Not her problem though. “I wouldn’t know about Ambassador Mathis. I have only seen her from the press conference. She was very....diplomatic. I understand Dr Asimina met her briefly here in the market last week though.”

“Oh good!” Eela said. “I’m glad they’re getting out more. It’s always a challenge getting settled somewhere new, especially when you have a teenager in tow. But yes, Mathis is very much what you expect of a diplomat: calm, observant, careful with her words and thoughts.” She thought back to the moment the other day when she had been trying to work herself up to walking past the press and entering the Tower for the first time after Cory. “But at the same time, there are depths to that woman that I hope we’ll get to see more of the longer she’s here. And her spouse, Ren, is delightful. They seems to balance her quite nicely.”

Sharah shrugged. “I will have to reserve judgement until I have met her. I just hope she is here to protect Oed. The Federation only sent her here because of the Vren, and her loyalty and oaths are to them, n6it a single colony. If Oed is lucky, she will come to value this place as more than just an assignment.”

She smiled. “Don’t underestimate her yet. Mathis has been running embassies for years at a time. She’s used to working with and through the systems around her. But these next weeks will be very telling. It’s one thing to deal with everything from a distance. It’s quite another when we’re all face-to-face with the Vren.”
