The deacon Gregory was recalled from Constantinople, and assisted the pope in the correspondence which was forthwith initiated with Bishop Elias of Grado and the bishops of Istria.
The words of the pope were, however, lost upon the schismatics, and equally without effect was the violence of the Exarch Smaragdus, who seized Severus, the successor of Elias, and, by threats, compelled him to enter into communion with the orthodox bishop, John of Ravenna (588).

Almost certainly the politico-religious crisis in the cities of northern Istra (most of the bishops of Pula did not adhere to the schism) was linked to the arrival of (?catholic) refugees from the continental hinterland.
