Description
[ONGOING] Versailles, France, 1770. The Dauphin Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette are set to wed. Aristocrats from across Europe have arrived at the Palace of Versailles to witness the holy union, for it marks a most momentous stage in both France and Austria's histories. Although the revolution is not due for another decade, the seeds of anarchy have been long-sown in the minds of plebeians. They are settled now, but they shan't be for long. There is resentment and anger towards the gentry; a royal wedding might just be the last straw. And Versailles seems the most fitting place to ignite the flame of rebellion. When a group of sheltered, blissfully ignorant young nobles become entangled in a plot to commit treason, each passing day becomes a race against time to save themselves, and France as they know it.
