After the completion of the sedition convention near Warsaw in mid-October 1607, many months of efforts to pacify the country began. Both the rebels and the regalists were striving for this, and both sides tried to impose their own conditions. The leader of the sedition, Mikołaj Zebrzydowski, wanted the reconciliation to take place at a convocation of the Senate, where the monarch was to be absent. Therefore, he aimed to diminish the authority of Sigismund III. The king, supported by the Senate, forced the rebel to apologize to him in front of the Senate's convocation. Zebrzydowski eventually agreed but made the monarch and the Senate wait more than 40 days for his appearance.
