Erato's Draft Trading Agreement Scroll

Though not directly handled in this event, the scroll containing Erato’s draft trading agreement influences the Doctor’s decision to hide his own document, underscoring his suspicion of Tythonian motives and his prioritization of Chloris’s safety.

A tightly bound parchment scroll is clandestinely passed from the Doctor to Organon under the guise of casual instruction. The Doctor emphasizes its need to be hidden from Erato, framing the object as a diplomatic secret worth killing to protect. Organon’s immediate handling reveals its fragile, high-stakes nature—both tangible evidence of the Doctor’s broader strategy and a potential liability if exposed.

The Doctor presents the scroll as a physical symbol of Tythonus’s offer, compelling Organon and the Huntsman to engage with its contents and implications under the pressure of unannounced TARDIS arrivals and planetary peril.

The Doctor presents the scroll as a gift from Erato, presenting the fragile parchment to the Huntsman who unrolls it to reveal the draft trading agreement. Organon studies it alongside him, connecting the text to cosmic calculations.
