The relatively happy family meeting lasted a while, but Khan, Monica, and her parents eventually departed, returning to the Harbor. Ideally, that could have been the right moment for a break from the political environment, but busy days with almost no free time followed.
Anastasia and Luther moved independently, dealing with various aspects of their new position. As Monica's parents, they benefited from Khan's status as a Prince, and many parties wanted meetings to renegotiate or establish relationships.
Meanwhile, Khan had to move quickly. The statement arrived in less than a day, making him an official Ambassador and earning him new duties. Celebrations and meetings awaited on the horizon, but Khan left the arrangements to Monica while he dealt with more personal matters.
