Eela didn’t spend too much time at the embassy, but it was enough to fill Jeanette in on her own status and see how the Mathis family was coping. The brief meeting also smoothed a worry about support for the Ambassador after she learned that Lady McKenzie had offered to help out a little. It would make things a bit easier to not have her staff running back and forth, since everyone had enough on their plates as well. Still, she knew that had the need still been there, everyone would have pitched in to make things work. Oed to the rescue.She confirmed his location before leaving and had sent a quick message that she was stopping by while he was in the office, but wrote nothing else. They would suss each other out rather quickly in the first few seconds, so why pretend otherwise and end up repeating themselves?
Eela had prepared herself for the press, and thankfully none had been at the embassy, but as she stepped out of the slider and bearing weight on the cane, her security kept everyone well back. She had been adamant that she would not talk to them today. Perhaps she’d comment tomorrow but for now she needed to finish recovering.
But having made it through the gauntlet of the entrance and security, Eela braced herself on the wall of the lift as she made her way up to Kenzo’s office. Stepping out onto his floor, she made her way over to Dorma, her cane tapping on the floors as she moved, her loose fitting grey garments swaying with her body. “Morning,” she said softly. “He’s expecting me.”

“Indeed he is.” Ms. Fen said. “And if I may say so… Eela… I am very happy to see you. I was very worried about you. All of us were. Butbdo not worry about agendas and meetings. The ‘Gatekeepers’ are on the job.” and she smiled. She pressed the icon on her desk and the doors to Hyrushi’s office swung open.

“Thank you, Dorma,. I appreciate you all immensely.” Eela said warmly, briefly touching her fingertips to Fen’s shoulder as she passed. She moved with sure strides, taking care not to move so slowly and use the cane to keep her weight even. The last thing she needed was to lean too heavily to that one side and cause more issues. Reesa was going to have a fun enough time working out all her body’s issues tonight- she didn’t need to make it worse.
Kenzo stood as Eela came in and he walked towards her; meeting her by the seating area. “You look much better than when I last saw you.” he said and gave her a soft embrace. “Sit, please.” he said and gestured to one of the chairs. “How are you feeling?”
Hyrushi, Governor
That embrace was welcome and spoke to the tone of this gathering. She eased herself into a chair, wincing only once as she adjusted her position. “Well, my body feels like it’s been beaten up and we’re going through great lengths to convince it otherwise, but Caridee said my neurotransmitter levels should be normal in a few hours. So… progress. As for my mental and emotional state, I’m… more level. Devastated, of course, but also I feel more in control than I did when Cory showed up. I think it’s slightly different because it’s not just my personal tragedy. There’s more going on that allows me space to separate myself out of it a little when I need to. But I mainly think that having been through all that crap with Cory, I’m more assured about my support system. I know you are all here for me, so it’s been very natural to allow everyone to help, even when I’m resistant at times.” Her hazel eyes were fixed intently on him, speaking in many layers.

“We are here for you, and I am glad that that knowledge was able to push through the rest.” Kenzo said. “As far as business goes, we are in a holding pattern. The Ambassadors postponed their meetings a day, and the Vren Ambassador made an appearance at Mr. Jones’ vigil. It has apparently made a significant impression on the colony’s social media networks.” and he sighed heavily. “Which is a good, because according to the Police and the CIA, there is some evidence of a Vren presence at the scene. Although both agencies believe that is… questionable. Which leads us to many other possible scenarios; none of which are good, I’m afraid.”
Hyrushi, Governor
Eyes wide, Eela’s mind was a flurry of thoughts accompanied by emotions. She didn’t even know which to reply to first to be quite honest. “Vigil?” she said finally before shaking her head. “And what sort of evidence?” Her stomach twisted as the potential ramifications unfurled before her.
