Kilkila
Vangala
"The Ratomkirans should be arriving within the next few minutes Minister," A young member of the Rakshibarga, the President's personal guard, informed External Affairs Minister Ajoy Qamaruzzaman. A military helicopter carrying the Ratomkiran Foreign Minister Major-General Anchaly Pokuean had just landed at an army base just outside of the capital, where a motorcade of police cars, motorcycles and Rakshibarga vehicles would be waiting for him. With their imposing presence and blaring sirens, Qamaruzzaman was confident they would pass through the congested streets of Kilkila quickly and soon reach the House of Vangala.
The military coup d'état in Ratomkira and the formation of the Council for Justice and Democracy junta had edged the two countries closer together. Under the hardline, anti-Communist Oikawan-backed dictatorship of King Pheakdei Srieng III, Vangala and Ratomkira had been engaged in covert warfare, popularly known as the 'Silent War', which had devastated the border regions of both nations. The new military administration on the other hand, was seeking a peace settlement with Ratomkira's largest rebel groups, forcing through democratic reforms and restarting talks with Vangala.
Yet obstacles remained. Many in Ratomkira's armed forces had watched their brothers-in-arms die at the hands of Vangalan armed and trained Communist militias and with a long history of fighting and mutual hostility, Ajoy Qamaruzzaman knew the atmosphere of the meeting would be heavy with tension and suspicion. Oikawa still had an enormous amount of influence in Ratomkiran politics and while Vangala and its imperialist archnemesis had seen a warming of relations, the Oikawan Empire was still viewed as Vangala's primary security threat. No doubt Nokanawa found sharing a border with a hostile Communist nation discomforting too.
With the sound of sirens drawing closer, the External Affairs Minister tried to put the negative thoughts behind him, knowing if these talks failed it could have disastrous consequences for not just Vangala, but the region as a whole.
