Summary
It is not sufficient to have power; one must be seen by the pack to have it. For power to be real, sufficient numbers must believe in it, just as they believe in the security of the pound and that London property prices only move in one direction.
For Mycroft, these facts were bred in the bone. And the moment the bullet from John Watson's pistol entered Magnussen's brain, Mycroft's power began to slip away, because others stopped believing in it. With Sherlock under threat, and his own position undermined, Mycroft schemes to protect them all against political rivals, unseen adversaries, and ghosts from his past.

Summary
Mycroft couldn't help himself; he felt a faint shiver of excitement in his stomach at the opening gambit of the game, even though he'd known this was the reason he'd travelled thousands of miles at no small personal and professional risk. He might have invested years of effort so that he could avoid just this sort of drudgery, but this moment, the opening moves of the chess match—he never tired of this.
