Indeed it's not very easy, Brand is also aware that this noble council is less a peace negotiation and more a last resort for both sides to gain leverage; every participant is the pinnacle of power in Erune. Anlek, Sipah, Kerkova, Viero, Karasu, Golan-Elsen, the six Dukes, two Marquises—Lord of Sword Castle, White Lion Legion Commander Marquis Balta, and the King's cousin Marquis Youxi, as well as five Privileged Earls, plus two Chief Priests of the Holy Temple and numerous business leaders from Ambeser; trying to mingle among these people would be difficult without sky-high skills.
Nevertheless, this isn't a one-time matter; the nobles intend to delay until next week to start a new round of negotiations, thus Brand has time. He delegated this task to Su, because he has more important matters to attend to. After settling the young men of the White Lion Legion, he traveled lightly and swiftly with Antitina and Qian, rented a carriage, and headed directly to the Inner City.
