In order for TYP to move his spirits up after the somewhat dramatic encounter with Piripi, he spotted an opportunity to gain a new friend; he excused himself from the others before he approached the latest foreigner amidst the group. "Ah isn't it President Jack O'Connor of the Final Irish Republic...an honor to finally get to meet you in person...you might know me as Pope Peter II of the Ecclesiastical State a.k.a "The Young Pope", quite a fancy nickname I got from the masses." He greeted while shaking the President's hand."No the pleasure is all mine," replied Jack, "I've read about the policies you've been establishing in the news. I never though I'd see the day that a centralized system was done right but I have to say your leadership is one I speak highly of. As for you, Ms. Arilda if I may call you that, I can't say I'm all that familiar. However I'd be more than open to learning more about your Baltikum and yourself of course."
"Sister Arilda here, Lord Protector of Baltikum and one can call me TYP's adoptive mom hehe." she also took the opportunity to greet the Irish President.
"Well on behalf of those advocating and representing a cerntralized system, I'm deeply sorry for what miseries of the sorts your people had to suffer under...apologies once more. But at least FIR has figured the ultimate way to lead its people to greater heights and I suppose it's each to his own when it comes to the 'perfect' forms of government. I do take it kindly about the positive words you had to say about how it's run in ES, i do agree as it's hailed as one of the most effective within its category, but the road to attain such reputation has been long and painful...like everyone else's...isn't that true Arilda?" The Young Pope replied before asking the Lord Protectress."No apologies necessary, our problems were dealt with and it allows me to stand before you now. It's been an honor meeting you two and thank you for your kindness. Perhaps when these ceremonies wrap up we could arrange a more formal meeting? It's a big world when you're on your own." the Irish President said with a chuckle. "I hear southern Albion is lovely this time of year."
"Indeed...well in any case it's nice that you've arrived to witness a new monarch to be crowned so to say. As for your willingness to learn more about Baltikum and myself...if there are any questions that you'd like to have answered, please don't hesitate Mr. President, nothing is 'dumb' or irrelevant'. the Lord Protectress said in a happy tone.
