Lady Elodie Clere

At Atlas Promenade

Swordhaven Diplomat
Ah, the Hero honored by Swordhaven! The Queen received your message. We quietly escorted everyone who was visiting Atlas back to the castle under the guise of an important festival. I'm on the lookout for a straggler by the name of Yara. She wasn't accounted for when our caravan set off for Greeguard Forest. So…Wait. Are you well? I've seen you around before, but you seem…different.

Warning
Queen Victoria received your message before King Zedek sent word of his Kingdom's arrival on the coast. "Get everyone out of Atlas" was both alarming and quite vague. That said, Queen Victoria trusts you completely, and didn't waste any time arranging for a quiet evacuation. As far as the people of Atlas are concerned, their visitors needed to make a brief return to Swordhaven to uphold a yearly tradition.

Evacuation
I was surprised the evacuation went so smoothly. The people of Atlas were curious about the 'festival' their fiances were attending. Thankfully, they're against leaving their city to find out. We have a few stragglers, and I'm looking for a Paladin named Yara. I heard she agreed to marry a scholar from here. According to her peers, this is very out of character. They're worried she was pressured.

Queen
Even if you didn't send that warning, I have misgivings about this King Zedek of Atlas. He personally visited Queen Victoria, and showered her in praise and flattery. I was worried he'd get down on one knee and ask for the Queen's hand right then and there. But…he questioned her physical condition, and asked if it was hereditary. Atlas' flags are blindingly red, and I don't want anything to do with them.

At Swordhaven Castle

Swordhaven Diplomat
Hail, fellow traveler! I can tell that you've crossed your share of horizons. I am Elodie Clere, an Official Ambassador of Greenguard. To improve relations between our fair land and the lands beyond our borders, I travel and meet with the leaders of other Nations. Sometimes even other worlds, like Terra - what you would call Earth. Would you like to see some of the souvenirs I've brought back with me?

Diplomacy
Greenguard needs its ruler to lead the people through our current parade of crises. It's been one disaster after another, which means they can't leave Swordhaven to meet the leaders of other nations. I travel in their stead to discuss trade, partnerships, and mediation. Suffice to say, I'm pretty busy. However, Greenguard doesn't receive many diplomats… that's understandable.

Travel
My most recent travels have been to the Sandsea and the Yokai Isles. Not too long ago, it would have been impossible for a diplomat to get past their borders. Now, they're eager to strengthen trade and visit Swordhaven! This is a huge step forward. In the past, it would have been incredibly dangerous for their rulers and ours to travel outside. It's all thanks to the new royal family tirelessly working towards forging peace.

Relations
Greenguard's relations with other nations is…messy. The Alteon family's rule, in comparison to the centuries of the previous dynasty's rule, is rather short. Many of the rulers from the fallen dynasty were warlords, and created a dark reputation for Greenguard. While relations have been improving, most countries are wary of travelers from Greenguard, fearing that we're scouting them for colonization.
