Paix is buzzing with the visit of the Emir of Four, a Crescent potentate negotiating some sort of treaty with Duchess Lilian Deneuve - L'Empereur's foreign minister and the governor of Surlign, the province that includes Paix. Sebastien is asked by Luc Duchard, captain-lieutenant of Musketeers in Paix, to arrange a secret guard for the Emir; apparently, Philip du Paix believes that there is a possible threat to the Emir's life or mission, but the Emir is too proud to accept a guard. Meanwhile, Marie-Celeste has heard that her old mentor in the Rose and Cross, Jean le Gross, is coming to town with news about the Comte du Beárn, the Governeur of Mertí.

The Bernoulli Ambassador and Other Investigations
Meanwhile, Aleksei and Marie-Celeste -- with some help from Julien -- investigate potential individuals who might want to target the Emir of Four. Aleksei learns that there are fears that the Montaigne are negotiating a trade deal. Currently, the Bernoulli family in Vodacce have been given a monopoly on trade with the Crescents by the Vaticine Church, but with the break between Montaigne and the Vaticine there's thoughts that L'Empereur might try to break up the monopoly.
In this vein, Aleksei visits the Bernoulli Ambassador, a man they saved from poisoning (ostensibly) during the Rapist Caper. The Bernoulli ambassador confirms that the Vodacce are concerned about the negotiations, though he denies any direct intentions on attacking the Emir. He does share, however, that the Emir - actually the Emir of Qat, his Montaigne title being a language error - has a rival brother, and the Bernoulli believe that a wedge can be drawn between them.
Finally, the companions speak with Philip, who - under some duress - suggests that the negotiations may be over a military matter, trying to encourage Corsair raids against Ussura. He suggests it may instead be the Ussurans who wish to stop the Emir.
