“Senator you really don’t need to-”
Trina glanced over at the aide with a stern look. It was all that was needed for the man to sigh with a defeated look as he rubbed his temples, “As you wish, Senator..” He muttered quietly.
The Cathar Senator, elected to her position not even two weeks prior, was in her office in the state building getting ready for her appearance in a particularly impoverished district in the city. Truthfully, no diplomat prior to this had bothered to venture into that area or attempted to appeal to the citizens that lived there. It was overrun with gang activity and most of the local authorities were on a mobster’s payroll. However, Trina didn’t sign up for the job for only the easy paths - she wanted to differentiate herself from the others and push the envelope.
“Where is that bodyguard?”
“I believe he just arrived at the lobby,” The aide said as he looked down at his datapad.
“Good, send him in,” Trina said as she gathered up her things. She glanced down at her datapad to do one last check over her speech. The Cathar was dressed elegantly with a simple bracelet on her left wrist. Trina was leaned against the edge of her desk reading her speech by the time the bodyguard would be led in. Her tail curled at the very end and swayed just a bit to betray the mild anxiety she felt about venturing into this particular district.
