Magificent as always. I certainly hope though that Leon isn't dueling people with rifles...
Great writing as always, Canonized!

Absolutely beautiful piece. This one is getting saved somewhere...
I love the dialog between Cecile and Leon It actually reminds me of a conversation I had recently, though admittedly dueling was not a part of it hahaha
Wonderful writing! The scenery is vivid and the dialogue is fast and easily understood.
Your update. It was delicious.
And long.
Excellent wordplay.
Finally, an AAR update written by canonized that I can finish!
Yeah so as usual I miss the debut. Because you disdain modern methods of informing me. Bad bad bad.
Well, I am loving this. Alright, I'm more like...liking this a lot. You're getting major enormous props for trying the genre here in AARland. I'm unfamiliar with the actual inspiration material but I've read a lot of similar stuff back in the day (that back now stretching ever longer), and the tenor seems just right. Except for pistol or rapier-related deaths, I must note. It will happen in the future, I imagine? 'Cause it's not the same without them. I mean, there already was one, but it wasn't exactly a duel in the same sense.
Glenn Close on the cover, however, is a massive plus. I approve. Massive drama must follow.
I'm also totally wanting to see what other tiny French places your "de X" nobility will come from. I do know, however, that Woodhouse is not in France.
Well done, canonized. I must admit I thought I could never love again after Nia but Cecile intrigues me.
Kudos also for getting the audience emotionally involved in the characters so quickly, especially the well rounded character of Leon. I was ready to dismiss him as the obvious villain but your elaborations on his inner monologues hint at so much more potential. I also love the little nods to Timelines.
Enough gushing for now. I eagerly await the next installment.
Deeply intriguing, I must say. The plot thickens.
Excellent work.
That was an unexpected ending! Great update.
Assassination! Aphrodisiac since...
Spirits? The plot definitely has thickened...
Wonderful writing. It feels as if I'm reading a novel.
Dead duchesses are bad when you can see dead people.
Or is he really seeing dead people ? the ambiguity is part of the theme !
What is the TRUE illusion being pulled over peoples' eyes ? Who is the real illusionist ? Is it that perhaps Luc can see the illusions but can't see them for what they are ?
