   Summary

   They said that a guide pope is a blessing for the Church.

   Thomas believes this too, even though he is just an ordinary human being. After the events of the conclave, he is torn between calm and discomfort, as he experiences a series of strange symptoms that he attributes to years of overwork. Is being driven by the idea of touching Vincent and being in his company part of it? And why does Vincent try to keep his distance despite their friendship and Thomas's support? Being a guide pope is complicated. Because although he is considered more powerful, he is also considered more dangerous by the Curia and the world.

   Within the walls of the Vatican, sentinels and guides sense that something is afoot.
