I really enjoyed this! Poor Turlough! But at least he got to meet Abby.

Thanks. :)

Awwww!

And yes, poor Turlough probably would have every right to grumble about the lackadaisical nature of Tellurian bureaucracy. Glad he managed to help Abby out!

This is the part where I point out Turlough's Americanisms, to do with as you wish:

Trion embassy tucked up on the third floor of a row house
I don't know what a row house is.

$20, in bills and coins
It's not a bill, it's a note.

Not an Americanism, but:
Turlough stared a the door, feeling a bit bewildered
That a should be at.

Thank you. I fixed the second and the third.

You can see a picture of a row house here. I imagine they'd have another name in England, but I decided he'd go with the local term (rather than try to figure out the English term for them).

Ah, it's a terraced house. Although one with a lot of storeys.
