[b][u] Earth, High Orbit Ascendancy Diplomatic Vessel [i]Shining Path[/i] A few hours before the Council Meeting. [/u][/b] [img]http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/b/b7/Coronet.png/revision/latest?cb=20120906220548[/img] The [i]Shinning Path[/i], a gleaming example of the artful and sleek design of Ascendancy Engineering. Appearance over practicality as they say. The towering ship hanged over high orbit of Earth, the beating heart of the Solar Kingdom and had been for the past several days as they awaited the arrival of the other participants of the meeting. All the while, The Ascendancy's Ambassador, an aged member of the stalky [url=http://payload281.cargocollective.com/1/5/186185/7939857/ISAAC_02_BM_o_905.jpg]Nassu[/url] species, Aldir Moti, had begun preparations for the meeting as he was walking calmly through the hallway leading straight to the doors to the shuttle bay, flanked on both sides by two pairs of guards. His clothing consisted of a bright white suit covered by a white robe with golden markings placed over it. As the group approached the doors, the Ambassador's aide, a young human female by the name of Natasha Zaamil waited by the door. "Glad you can join us, Zaamil." Aldir said. "Wouldn't miss it." She replied. "Heard good things about Earth, gotta get in touch with my ancestral roots and all before the meeting." "That would be best. Come, the shuttle's waiting." Before long the group entered the sliding doors, moving through the small corridor leading to the shuttle. fortunately for the Ambassador, the shuttle proved to be much more roomy as he and his aide took their seats, the guards placing themselves in front of the pair. "Departing in three...two...one.." the pilot said as the ship trembling for but a brief moment as it emerged from the [i]Shining Path[/i], and started it's path towards the orbiting Starport, sparking with life and surrounded by hundreds of ships, be they commercial and trading vessels, local military, or that of the visiting delegates from other nations.
