Before there was the Vicomte, there was the Citizen, and before all of that, there was just Adrien.
At thirteen, Adrien-Henri de Montfaucon should have been in lessons, or causing mischief with others his age. It might have been better, if he had. But fate, destiny, or whatever you may call it had other plans, and instead, Adrien enters his formative years in a nation divided by Revolution.
And that is the tragedy of it all, isn't it? The Citizen's end was always written before the boy himself knew there was a story to be told at all.
A Prequel to "The Vicomte Montfaucon" and "The Libertine Montfaucon"
