Then there've been a lot more.

[Arno sighs, feeling...really tired and old, suddenly.]

I was assigned to deal with a merchant who was controlling the grain supply. She was in charge of making sure that some was lost, to drive up the price of bread and inspire the desire for a change...that would usher in the new realm of madness when the other side got to the top.

It's so...grotesque now.

[Arno's killed, he's seen heads rolling, but the idea of that job alone disturbs him more than a good deal many other things ever COULD. ]

...In time I suppose it would have to create a counter revolution, against what Robespierre's doing. And I know we go back to a king for years upon years...

It's not the damned king that's the problem is it? Or whoever happens to be in charge. It's the ones who benefit the most, and that's not ever anyone who needs it.

The entire world and whole colonies. Mon dieu...

What must it be like, to live with that? I thought MY life was full of uncertainties.
