Ophelia: >"I do feel sorry for you, that the first country you should meet would be the Columbians...we have an unsteady relationship with them here in Equestria, they are seen as a bit...overkill...in their means and methods."<

Marlies: ">It's not my place to decide whether or not I disagree with them at the end of the day I got a job to do.
And it's not my place to decide if I hate them or not, I'm working for them but in the end I serve the Keizersin even if she's not old enough to understand that yet.<"

Ophelia: <"Indeed, in time you will learn of the Columbian ways and means, anyways, I assume you haven't seen much of Equestria?">

Marlies: ">No not until I decided to go here.
And even then I've only been to one planet.<"

Ophelia: ">Of course, and how old is the Kaiserin?<"

Marlies: ">She's 5 and as a result there is a regency.
And of course I'm her closest family member since her parents are dead, so she's my responsibility<"

She doesn't feel like getting any deeper into the topic needless to say

Ophelia would nod, before clearing her throat and ringing a bell

Ophelia: "<Well then, should you wish for anything to eat?>"

Ophelia would nod and mutter something to a servant who would nod and then rush off to fetch the tea.

Ophelia: "<Tell me about your kingdom, pre-Columbia...what was it like?>"

Marlies: ">It's a blur needless to say.
And honestly I haven't really thought of it since the occupation, been mostly just trying to hold together some from of normalcy and trying to raise my niece.

But I'd say it was a lot more carefree for me since I didn't have such a huge job in the government nor have to parent my niece.<"

Ophelia: ">And what of your history?>"

Marlies: ">Well basically we started off like most civilisations, in the stone age.
We remained there for 3.3 million years until we started advancing at a rabid pace.

Basically to make this short, we were at a space age before we were invaded, and controlled a lot of planets in our own solar system.<"

She sips the tea clearly liking it

Ophelia: “<Well I certainly was curious, I’ve never seen your kind of griffon before.>”
