The figure who set it up Zeus Authority, decision and the loneliness of the last word. What to avoid: Power used because it is available.
The figure in the room Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.
The figure who leaves Artemis Independence, the forest and a life that does not need an audience. What to avoid: Solitude defended past the point of need.

The first role is the messenger, which is the oldest way of saying that a conversation is the whole plot.

The heart of the reading is Hephaestus, the figure who negotiates, which is the role this week actually requires.

The decision belongs to next week; the preparation belongs to this one.

Enough is a real quantity and you can measure it.
