When Settimio, Pellio, and Aquila arrive, I'm done with the first two copies. I have gathered Marius and my ladies in waiting, Melissa and Dorotea.
They might be naive when it comes to politics, but they know how to write. As such, they're put to work soon enough. At the table, they make copies of the declarations.
For the moment, I don't summon the secretaries. I prefer this to be as private as possible. We won't be able to hide it forever, so we'll be able to get more help soon.
For the moment, however, it's a strictly confidential matter.
Melissa and Dorotea haven't spent much time with me since the end of the war, but they don't show any concern. They don't care about my powers, apparently. Maybe it's because I'm their employer, but they don't ask anything. They just write.
