[b]Giogoula Giorgio[/b] The last few days has been a roller coaster of events since the airship's arrival to Elvesland. First was the whole gold incident with Carter, that Mainer fool who tried to steal from the Empire's treasury during the nation's darkest days and evaded the policewoman's attempt to apprehend him first at the airship and then at the embassy. She heard that the Commonwealth ambassador got to Carter before the Mittevolk authorities did and refused to hand him over to them, hence the news of embassy staffs exiting the country. Good grief to that event, Giogoula thought. Still, she kind of regretted that she didn't stay any longer to see the events fold out with her eyes. At least the gold transfer went off without any other issues. Then there was the whole event of a small standoff between the crewmembers of the airship and the Mittelandische army before Arkadios's arrival to defuse the situation while she and Volodar were out looking for the Mainer. Giogoula wasn't sure what she would have done had she remained in the ship while it unfolded. Would she just let them in and take command or get defensive? She didn't blame Robertson for being defensive based on what she heard, everyone appears to be in the dark about what is going on. And finally, Zoe Spyrou is actually the lost princess Philazoea. Giogoula couldn't believe it; the hastily formed crewmembers of the airship was keeping the Princess safe all this time. She wasn't sure if she should feel ecstatic that a member of the royal family is safe after the Emperor's capture or ashamed that she didn't recognize the Princess and only written her off as some aristocratic girl despite Giogoula being in service of the Ministry. Then again, it's not like working in the Ministry of State Security would give her contact to the Emperor and his family; the highest rank she met with was the Minister and that's it. Not as if she ever performed a curtsy to anyone of the Imperial family before, let alone speak to one in person. Giogoula should be happy that at least the Princess is safe and accounted for by the crewmember. It is the best piece of news that she heard since the hasty escape from the city with the depressing news from the front. Now that the Princess has reclaimed the airship under her authority, guess it is time for Giogoula to join Zoe, er Princess Philazoea.
