Everyone knows this, too. A woman, several generations ago, caught the eye of the supreme pontiff, and naturally they began a clandestine relationship. It is said that she bore him a son - this son, your great grandfather, was not given titles by his father, but instead simply a large sum of money. Being a clever, enterprising young man, he used this to buy a small but promising bank trading in a city up north, and grew it until it was a veritable financial empire. So, here’s to great grandfather and his disregard for the rules!"
