At that time, Deputy Director Raphael and Yvonne returned to the room.
"Are you done talking with each other?"
"Yes, it's a complete game changer, but we're pretty much done."
Raphael and Yvonne's faces lit up with questions.
"Game changer? What do you mean by that?"
"It means we have a new card. And it’s one that you can't refuse."
"I'll tell you again, we don't want to give up on the conditions we just mentioned..."
"We are securing the remains of Joan of Arc, which, as you know, are a sacred relic."
"Slowly, once again... What?”
"Joan… who?"
Raphael and Yvonne, who couldn’t believe their ears for a moment, asked for repetition with a stunned look.
"It may be hard to believe, but we have the remains of Saint Joan of Arc, and we believe them to be quite authentic. That's why we want to have a fresh round of negotiations."
"You're securing Joan of Arc's remains? No, how did you...?
"I can't tell you that, but I'll tell you that it's not a joke."
