During his term, Válcadác'h estabilished by Prime Dictate the office of Scribe of Abbavilla in response to John Minot's sudden resignation as Attorney-General and exit from Talossa entirely; that office used to also handle the Scribe's duties of keeping the "official" versions of the lawbooks up to date.
