* [[The Bright-Delver#Actia, the Singer-of-Sunlight|Actia]] represents [[The Bright-Delver]]. Her duties are that of mediator and peacekeeper, as well as assisting the upkeep and maintenance of the city. After Jonquil, she is the most likely to offer newcomers duties and citizenship, although those who take her offers often find themselves working harder and longer. She has never ventured into [[The Temple Nil]], of course.

* [[The Harvester]] is nominally represented by the Maw-of-Thousands. It, despite the name, is a rather harmless little automaton, a short little cylindrical machine who was once the Harvester's pride, built as a smaller version of itself, to devour that which was below its notice. It inherited its father's belligerence but none of its might, and eventually its father abandoned it in disgust and sent it as an envoy to the First City to show his contempt for the City. This turned into a blessing when the Harvester's madness grew and it devoured all its minions, but the Maw. Despite its attempts to recall the Maw, its lack of an envoy at the City apart from the Maw renders that impossible. The little Maw was the minister Elaine was sanctioned for biting.

** Officially, the Young Man is [[The Peacock]]'s Minister. In reality, while Romeo is charismatic enough to give a decent performance, he lacks the focus to actually perform any duties of note. He does however oversee the city's holidays as the Master of Ceremonies, where he does an exceptional enough job working the crowds he maintains a devout following despite his flaws.

* Hamelink represents [[The Diagram]]. He is only mortal, but he possesses enough understanding of the Diagram to approximate optimal actions. He befriends people easily, makes enemies only reluctantly, and always knows what tea to serve to a dear guest. Every few months, he will push for a tax of love stories from incoming visitors. He is busy with matters of mortality and inheritance. He lacks children.
