Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Tavannes' continuity as the driving force behind Catholic repression is evident from Episode 23 (cand_evt_scene_9bdb2597b8a2e56a_01) to Episode 25 (cand_evt_scene_3683cc8ec688b512_02), where he reluctantly carries out Catherine's orders but remains central to the conspiracy.
