Your Highness,

Going back more than half a millennium the French and Iranian states have had positive relations, interrupted only by the unfortunate theocracy that preceded your King's recent ascent. The French Empire is ecstatic to see not just the end of religious fanaticism but even the return of one of the world's oldest countries with a monarchy.

Considering historical relations and the in our view great compatibility of our current governments, on behalf of Her Imperial Majesty the Empress of the French, I wish to propose renewing Franco-Iranian relations and holding a meeting between our two offices to discuss the establishment of cooperation in multiple fields of interest.

Sincerely,
Sophie Dubois,
Ministre de l'Europe et des Affaires étrangères

With the Iranian acceptance of the invitation, the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs would send specific details about the meeting and coordinate arrival times and meeting times, as well as request details of the transport method so that the Imperial Air and Space Force and other segments of French security infrastructure could be ready to guarantee the safe arrival and security of Lord Bishtun-an-És in France. For their part France would relay the confirmations back as well so the Iranians could fly into French airspace at the agreed upon date and time. Once there they would be received with full honours and by a reception committee of the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs before being escorted to a protected motorcade. A limousine was reserved for His Lordship while additional SUVs were there to transport any aides and/or security. The convoy itself was then protected by six vehicles from the National Gendarmerie who would escort the motorcade to the Ministry.

Given the state of the, only shortly emerged stable monarchy out of an theocratic mess of decades from missmanagment rule, Lord Bishtun-an-És arrived with an pretty old aircraft at Paris. While orderly and clean himself, his staff aswell as the aircraft, it was not to hide, in what state the Iranian goverment was. Therefore the lately renewed diplomatic relations with France, where seen as an first step back into an truly stable state of the Monarchy. Even more so, if Lord Bishtun-an-És thought about all the wars ongoing in the region of honorable old Èran. He was in fact the first Royal Emissary welcomed in a foreign country after the rebuilding of the Monarchy, even more so an major power of the world. But regardless of the state of his country, ofc Lord Bishtun-an-És had an gift for the Ministre de l'Europe et des Affaires étrangères, as it was old custom in iran to bring gifts, as friendly Emissarys.
In his package he had an first class, persian carpet and an traditional royal cermonian cup for wine. As he drove through the great city of paris he looked even more forward to the talks, hoping to achieve an beginning of long lasting cooperation.

As the motorcade arrived at their destination and their Persian guest had made it to the Ministry, his welcome would be no different from any other. The Third French Empire was highly committed to building friendships in the Middle East and while Éran might still be rebuilding from the theocratic history, in the eyes of France there was only enormous potential. As such the reception included displays of both French and Eranian flags, as well as the anthem being played by a military band. "Your Lordship, welcome to the Empire of France. It is my absolute pleasure to meet with you and by extension your nation today" Sophie Dubois, the French Foreign Minister would state as she extended her hand in greeting and friendship.

Lord Bishtun-an-És had witnessed some diplomatic motorcades in France, before the restoration of the Monarchy he was one of the many Persians living in Exile while the Islamic regime ruled in Iran. Like many people fo the current administration in Èran he was therefore familiar with the country, his family once fled to. But never the less, to be the reason for all these official honors to occur, was another feeling. In an most delicate silk robe, decorated with golden, red and dark green blossoms and patterns, the silk itself fully dark blue, and with his traditional beard, curled and meticulously accurate trimmed into a almost cubic shape, he walked out of the car and smiled full of honesty as the French Foreign minister Sophie Dubois greeted him. With an little Bow he took her hand. "It is my full honor to be welcomed by you in your honorable Empire and to represent my humble Nation and glorious Sha here today is in itself, a sign of blossoming times we are able to witness your Excellence Ministère de l'Europe et des Affaires étrangères." The French of Bisthun-an-Ès was almost native, showing that he was raised bilingual in France.
