"Yeah, Conexum hasn't had a political figure from a nation like yours before.", he said as the door closes behind him, sitting on the seat opposite from the ambassador. The limousine was quite luxurious, something you would expect from royalty. A mini-bar with various liquors including the King's personal favorite, Bourbon. The inside of the limousine is illuminated by a strip of light coming along the insides of the car, as well as a starry sky-esque ceiling that gives off a faint glow.

The limousine starts to drive off along with it's convoy. Police motorcycles weave along in front of the convoy. "A drink?", he asked, gesturing to the mini-bar.

Hello there

The northern cresent

The resort of Warm Fires is positioned high in the Blue Peak mountain range of Astia, and is as such, covered in snow for most of the year. It is reserved for Nobles and high ranking members of the military. It also features an expansive airship station, capable of supporting the dozens of ships that protect the resort as well as the private ships of the nobles. Skiing, indoor pools, pubs and all other manner of entertainment can be found. If you can think of it, more than likely it is featured somewhere in the resort. Currently, the resort is hosting the Admiral's Feast, and even that takes place in honor of the new Lord Admiral after each election. For the first time in a very long time, members of different nations have been invited to attend.

Supreme Commander Kane, Supreme Admiral Thrawn, Grand Admiral Salone, and Grand Moff Pellaeon all arrive via an Armored Imperial shuttlecraft. Escorted by an elite squadron of TIE Advanced.

The floating port is buzzing with life. The same massive carrier that Thrawn was on a week ago is there, along with a large number of other Astian ships. The Imperials are instructed to land at a specific dock, and once they do they are greeted by a young woman buried beneath a large coat, "Hi! My name is Amanda, and I'm an usher here at Warm Fires! If you have any questions before we disembark for the surface, I'd be happy to answer them!"

The four are surrounded by Imperial Knights, with full armor and helmets on.

Salone speaks up “tell us about your resort.”

Her face lights up, "Gladly! Warm Fires was established 356 years ago to be a place of relaxation for our Admirals and Nobility. They lead lives of great stress, and it is our duty here at Warm Fires to make them comfortable and happy. We have all kinds of entertainment, which you may sample at your leisure. You will be giving handouts that both detail our attractions as well as the itinerary for the Admiral's Feast. If you ever need help finding a certain attraction, everyone here will be happy to help you with a smile!"

"Poison of choice, ambassador?", the admiral jokingly chuckles. Bourbon, Wine and Champagne are the choices. One Street (The Royal Palace) is a little bit of a ways away.

"A man of culture", he said as he pours him a glass of wine. He hands him the glass and pours one from himself. "Cheers", he said, offering a toast.

As she leads them down the catwalk, a pair of what appears to be fights drop off of the under side of the port and speed off into the distance. A massive ship, another carrier, slowly slides in to dock. The biggest eye catcher by far, however, is the dreadnought also docked at the port. At least two times bigger than the carrier and decorated ornately. It’s main gun is as big as some of the smaller ships docked at the port. Amanda gestures to it as she walks, “That’s the Grand Mistress, queen of our fleet. As I’m sure you can tell, she far outsized any other ship, and is commanded by the Lord Admiral. Each Lord Admiral hand picks their crew, though the exact number is a well kept secret.”
She leads them on to a small transport shuttle

It’s apparent that each Imperial assess the ships and fleet with extreme practical prowess. Exchanging nods with one another, confirming their assessments of the ships capabilities.

“Quite impressive.” Thrawn says in regards to the Grand Mistress

"Our fleet is our pride. Now, if you'll take your seats..." She proceeds to go over a short safety briefing before the shuttle detaches from the port and proceeds to the surface. A second attendant starts handing out pamphlets to them as Amanda explains, "Please study the itinerary closely, as any delay in the events will take away from the festivities. Otherwise, until the first mandatory event, you are free to explore the resort. If you have any other questions, I would be happy to answer them now."

They ask about their room accommodations, and afterwards strap in. On the way down, they catch up with one another. Aside from Kane and Thrawn, the four had not seen one another in some time sense they are stationed on different sides of the Empire.
