[ She chimes in: ]

My nation is 'tween... [ Suddenly she looks puzzled. ] Germany and...?

[ Her expression falls. ] I cannot remember the other one... nor much of Europe.

[inthebones]

...Germany doesn't mean much to me, either, I'm afraid. Your card does say you know over 30 languages. Do you have full command of all of them here?

[teenspirit]

I am not sure. I would not be able to compose you a full list. I am aware that I know thirty, but I cannot recall all of them.

[ She begins to count on her fingers. ] English, Japanese, Russian, Spanish, Polish, Lithuanian, German, French... I immediately can recall all of those. I am sure I can remember more if I try.

[inthebones]

[no sense of self-preservation Sonia why]

...Polish being the most important one at the moment, of course. I suppose they must instruct you well as a princess - you'll be expected to deal with all of those countries in the future.

[teenspirit]

[ BASICALLY NONE, YEAH... ]

That is right. It is a necessity for any member of the royal family. We have always been a nation plagued by war, so the ability to conduct diplomacy in the languages of the countries we wish to reach out to is vital.

[inthebones]

Our Queen, Keli, doesn't do much by the way of diplomacy, so it's a bit easier. I suppose most other countries see the Patrician as the figure of true power, though Vetinari doesn't conduct diplomacy so much as he wages it.

[teenspirit]

That's just the way! Exactly it! Wage diplomacy!

[ Sonia what kind of country are you even living in. ]

[inthebones]

[Susan raises an eyebrow slightly at this vehement display before moving on with a slight cough.]

I'm not quite sure, though, that his style was appreciated much, though it certainly was effective.
