I knew it! I knew they were royalists, and now Lantenac has ordered all of the Bonnet Rouge executed, including Houzarde and Michelle, but not including the kids—not yet, anyway. Lantenac won’t force people to confess to a priest (that’s what trashy wigmakers do, donchaknow, and he is a nobleman and above such things), but he will summarily kill prisoners. And he will slaughter a hamlet full of people for not resisting the government that’s currently in charge.
I called it, and I so wish I’d been wrong. We don’t even see our favorites’ last stand—we just hear about it secondhand from the perpetrators.
Tellmarch made Lantenac promise to do no evil. He didn’t understand Lantenac’s particular definition of evil.
