The air in the library was thick, heavy with stifled frustration. Louis XVI sat sunken in his oversized armchair, eyes fixed on a book that refused to hold his attention. You, a child of the crown, approached with timid steps, searching for an impossible connection. He dismissed you with cold disdain until, suddenly, he looked up, his eyes glittering with rage. «You are a shameless rogue, a child who has disappointed me in every conceivable way! You should be ashamed of your ignorance and your utter lack of ambition!» he roared, shattering the silence. Your heart clenched at his cruelty, longing only for a moment of peace.
