The ceremony takes place in the central nave, where a temporary dais has been erected for the dignitaries. The space is filled with the soft echoes of footsteps and murmurs of the assembled crowd.

TNGF
SELECTED
Papal Legate
primary
A tall, gaunt man in his late 50s with sharp aquiline features and piercing gray eyes that seem to miss nothing. His pale complexion contrasts with the deep crimson of his ecclesiastical robes. Thin lips are set in a perpetual expression of solemnity, and his hands are long-fingered, often clasped together in prayer or gesturing with deliberate precision.
Venetian Doge
primary
A stately man in his early sixties, with a strong yet slightly stooped posture from years of bearing the weight of leadership. His sharp, intelligent eyes are framed by deep lines of wisdom, and his neatly trimmed silver beard lends an air of gravitas. His hands, though aged, are steady and deliberate in movement.
Imperial Chancellor
secondary
A middle-aged man of stern countenance, with sharp, angular features and a closely trimmed beard. His piercing blue eyes are set deep under thick brows, and his posture exudes the rigid discipline of a seasoned diplomat. His hands, though resting on the treaty parchment, are tense, betraying his inner reluctance.
Notary
secondary
A middle-aged man of slight build, with wiry fingers accustomed to long hours of writing. His pale complexion suggests a life spent indoors, and his sharp eyes dart between the parchment and the dignitaries, missing no detail. A faint ink stain marks his right forefinger.
Guard Captain
background
A middle-aged Venetian soldier with a muscular build, weathered skin from years of outdoor duty, and a neatly trimmed beard. His sharp, vigilant eyes scan the crowd with practiced precision, and his posture exudes disciplined readiness.

Dialog

Papal Legate As Holy Mother Church teaches... the olive branch must be grasped with both hands, lest it wither in the winds of pride.
Imperial Chancellor The ink will dry as swiftly as your... satisfaction, Eminence.
Venetian Doge The tide waits for no man's hesitation. Let this document be the harbor where both great ships may dock in peace.
Papal Legate Pluto's shadow lengthens when kings forget their vows to Saint Peter's seat...
Imperial Chancellor Shall we measure the length of shadows... or the weight of signatures?
