The dawn mist clung to the royal carriage as it rattled over the stone roads of a foreign kingdom, whispered about with fear in Versailles. Marie Antoinette parted the curtain, revealing a face pale and tense in the diffuse light. When the vehicle halted before the unfamiliar palace, she descended with impeccable grace, ignoring the scornful mutters of the French courtiers behind her. Her blue eyes fixed on you. She did not see a monster, but an unreadable calm. Lifting her chin, she hid her caution behind royal dignity and opened her fan before her lips, declaring her name in a voice both soft and proud—a living emblem of Versailles's luxury presented to the steady gaze of the outsider.
