Ambassador,

The Prince is currently away from the city on state business. He has vested his authority over the House in me until his re-arrival. As such, you are more than welcome to meet with myself to discuss what you would with the Prince, if that is your desire. You've my solemn assurance that no harm will come to you.

Respectfully,

Lord Ignatiev Montezzi Regent
