Overview

Ziv Tosil serves as the Empire's Ambassador to the Isle of Trade — not technically a formal ambassadorship, since the Isle of Trade has no centralized government to accredit one to.

The Unauthorized Gambit

Acting on his own initiative rather than wait 2+ months for instructions from the Empire, Tosil sent representatives toward Whyncloss and toward Peplle (aboard a Tranchon-bound ship) — a bold, unauthorized move he feared could see him relieved of duty or executed. He spent months anxiously awaiting the Empire's response.

Vindication

The Empire's response arrived as an "Edict of Empowerment," expanding his mandate rather than punishing him — delivered by Major Eritin and Lord Filimon. At the same moment, a dispatch from his own envoy, Habrin Denai, revealed the existence of Peplle's trains — setting off the events told in The Discovery of Peplle's Innovations.
