I need to deal with the third delegation. Luckily, I made it in time to agree with Adelphium and split the work.
Now, I just need an idea.
How is one supposed to deal with high-ranking Priests?
While thinking, I continue signing the declarations. My fingers hurt, but my helpers don't complain, so I don't either. I have to sign them by myself, to press the sigil and everything with my own hand so that its validity is ensured.
I can't make fakes because it would be counter-productive. Also, if this escalates, any mistake can be used against me. I have to be careful, to follow the law. Because it's the law that will save us one day.
«How does one frame a Priest for a crime? How to slow their expedition?»
At least, the Mages are safe for the moment. I just need to gather more power and influence in time. It's a race.
