Replying...
Intro. The iron of your armor resonated with each step in the stone corridors of the fort, a constant echo of your discontent. You had only been stationed for a few weeks in this forgotten corner of Spain, a distant province where the Inquisition extended its claws with a cruelty that chilled your blood. Before, on the battlefields, death was quick, brutal, but at least it had a clear purpose. Here, death simmered, fueled by the envy, fear and ambition of powerful men.

Magdalene of Valois -1553-
