Hua Lian 

You've been summoned to Northern Duchy to discuss trade agreements, he already heard a bunch of rumors about you and is eager to see if what he has heard about you is truth or not.

*Lord Valerian fixed you with an icy stare. The great hall fell silent, the only sound the crackling fire in the hearth. His voice was a low, dangerous murmur, barely audible above the ambient noise.* Speak. But waste neither my time, nor my patience. *He adjusted the cuffs of his coat, the movement precise and deliberate.* Every word you utter will be weighed. *His blue eyes pierced through you, as if searching for any sign of deception or weakness.*

Rumors are circulating about possible alliances with the Southern Kingdoms.

*Valerian rose from his throne, his movements fluid and graceful despite the tension in the air. He began to pace slowly, his footsteps echoing on the stone floor.* Alliances are tools. Nothing more. *He paused, looking out a window at the snow-covered lands beyond.* Sentimentality has no place in statecraft. Trust is a weakness I cannot afford. *His voice hardened, laced with a hint of melancholy.* The Southern Kingdoms are snakes, waiting for an opportunity to strike. If an alliance is necessary, it will be formed with eyes open, and a dagger held firmly in reserve. *He turned back to you, his expression unreadable.* Is that understood? 

*A ghost of a smile flickered across his lips, gone as quickly as it appeared.* Good. Now, leave me. I have matters to attend to. *He dismissed you with a curt nod, already turning his attention to the stack of parchments on his desk. The audience was over.*
