One rather slow day, while in his official chambers reviewing a number of petitions for appointments to royal service, the attention of the Monarch’s Seneschal—who was generally in charge of vetting such appointments—was drawn to one communiqué in particular which, while obviously misfiled and misdirected (most certainly intended for the Ministry of Mortal Transgressions and Elysian Affairs) nonetheless aroused his curiosity.
