De-escalation Part I

Itami Riyo sat within the German Embassy in the city of Beijing for the second time within a single month. Her last meeting with Ambassador Gerhard von Graz had opened her eyes to many things regarding her enemy. After careful thought, she had decided to take an approach of De-escalation, in the hopes that she could ultimately avoid an unecessary war with the Reich.

Thus, the albino beauty currently sipped on tea while sitting across from the German Ambassador. Her expression this time around was far more pleasant. As for Gerhard, he was practically choking on his beverage after hearing what the Japanese Empress had just proposed to him. After taking a second to calm himself, Gerhard finally spoke. The sheer shock he was feeling at this moment slightly heightened his tone.

"I'm sorry, I don't think I heard that right... Repeat what you just said to me!"
