Grand Emissary
The purpose of the Grand Emissary is to be the face of diplomacy for the kingdom. When dealing with other foreign nations who have difficulty conducting proper negotiations, it is the Grand Emissary's job to peel away the bravado, stubbornness, posturing and lies until they are left with the truth: making a deal is always better than going to war.....especially with the kingdom. They act as cultural experts for the Two Kings and with their knowledge of all the languages of Arelia, their translator if needed.
