;[Breaking News] The West Zemuria Trade Conference Begins!
-----
:◆The Heads of State Arrive◆
 At 10:02 this morning, the Eisengraf, a crimson-colored train used exclusively by the Imperial government, pulled into Crossbell Station. From it, Prince Olivert and Chancellor Osborne exited onto the platform. Meanwhile, President Rocksmith's limousine drove in via East Street, and the sleek, high-speed cruiser, the Arseille, landed at Crossbell Airport. Princess Klaudia and Prince Albert then proceeded to disembark before riding a courtesy car into the city.
Though not as newsworthy as those mentioned above, Senior Captain Schwarz arrived from Liberl alongside the princess, causing a great stir among her fervent fans who had been waiting at the airport. 
:◆Orchis Tower Revealed!◆
 In a historic moment, Mayor Crois and Speaker MacDowell welcomed each of the heads of state at the foot of the tower before unveiling the structure to the public. The reveal of the new city hall building--also the venue for the trade conference--invoked roaring applause from citizens and tourists alike. A representative of the city's PR team stated that Orchis Tower will be open to the public once the conference has concluded. 
:◆Potential Conference Presage◆
During a luncheon with the newly-arrived heads of state, Mayor Crois and Speaker MacDowell floated a number of their proposals in an informal discussion and apprised the press in attendance of their hopes for the conference. However, rumor has it that some of the world leaders have already begun butting heads. There is a distinct possibility that the success or failure of the conference will hinge almost entirely on both the mayor and speaker's abilities to effectively negotiate and navigate the debates.

;【速報】通商会議、始まる！
-----
:◆続々到着する各国首脳◆
 午前１０時０２分、クロスベル駅に深紅の鉄道車両が滑り込んだ。エレボニア帝国政府専用列車「アイゼングラーフ号」、ホームに降り立ったのはオズボーン宰相とオリヴァルト皇子である。
ほぼ同時刻、クロスベル東通りをロックスミス大統領を乗せたリムジンが通過、クロスベル空港には高速巡洋艦アルセイユが勇姿を現し、クローディア王太女とアルバート大公が颯爽と登場、迎賓車へと乗り込んだ。余談だがクローディア王太女に続いて一部で熱狂的人気を誇る同国のユリア准将も姿を見せ、現場は大いに沸き立った。 
:◆オルキスタワー、現る！◆
 タワー前広場で首脳達を迎えたディーター市長とマクダエル議長は、今回の会場ともなるオルキスタワーをお披露目。その壮大な姿に市民や観光客にも喝采が広がった。ちなみに市広報官によると、タワー前広場は通商会議後は市民に一般開放されるという。 
:◆気になる会議の動向は◆
ディーター市長、マクダエル議長は首脳たちと昼食会を共にし、懇談ぶりをアピール。記者団にも本会議の抱負などを語った。しかし一部首脳の間では既に水面下での鞘当てが始まっているとの見方もあり、本日からの本会議の成功はディーター市長、マクダエル議長両氏の手腕に掛かっているといえそうだ。
