OOC- I assume unless its an issue that some kind of embassy exists between all nations. I fully intend to RP that Jargalant have neglected to appoint really good and active ambassadors for the last five years though. Hope this is ok
Gansükh Batzorig had been ambassador in Neu Uburzis just over three years now. His predecessor had been a nobleman and was recalled to the Khanate on grounds of his sisters health, Gansükh had only ever been intended to be the caretaker ambassador until either the former had returned or a new nobleman was appointed. He himself was merely a 32 year old lawyer with some admin experience in the diplomatic corps but over the three years he'd grown to like the role. Today though he was actually tasked with doing something other than just dealing with the odd piece of correspondence. A message had come through on the teleprompt and now he sealed it in a thick card envelope that was dark red in colour. He carefully affixed the wax seal of his office as ambassador and then retrieved the item requested. He would have called for a car but the staff was basically himself, a secretary, two security guys and Tömör who was a kind of quartermaster, receptionist and chef all in one. He grabbed Tömör and made his way to the small embassies underground garage where a non descript little black electric car sat. It was the kind that a low paid office worker might use for a daily commute in a busy city and certainly not what a real ambassador would have enjoyed. Tömör drove as Gansükh double checked he had his credentials every few minutes until they arrived at the Neu Ubruzis government HQ. "Wait here please" Gansükh instructed as he flashed his ID at security. "I have a message from my Khan and a package" He handed them over for security unsure whether he needed get a receipt or anything, deeming his job done he gave them a small bow, turned and re-entered the car.

Quote from: Letter for the Emperor
Dear Emperor Orion.
It is my hope this letter finds its way to you and that you are well. I am writing as after meditation I came across the old proverb "Honor, like a yurt, stands tall when repaired from within." It is with sadness that I believe there is the potential that my words in council about your upcoming marriage arrangement may have caused you to feel I had dishonoured you. I wish to apologise if that is the case. I am a man who is proud of my nations traditions and sadly not too aware of the traditions of foreign lands. No offence was intended as I answered the question but with hindsight a better answer may have been given. Our two nations are ones that sit far apart in many ways, geographically, spiritually and traditionally yet I see no reason to cause ill will. It is my hope that you find happiness with whomever is selected.
As a token of my goodwill I hope you will accept the saddle which should have also been delivered. Every man should have a solid saddle on which to build a strong foundation in life. It is my hope that perhaps in the build up to your nuptials you can visit the Khanate and select a horse from our stables to match your saddle and select one for your future wife.
In hopes of no ill will.
Khan Mönkhsaikhan II
