A Herald of Harold's Demise (Ch. 2)
(After much demand, I've at last completed chapter 2 of Harold's story. Much like chapter 1, it was longer than expected. Thus there will have to be a third chapter, which isn't yet written. If parts of this chapter look like they ripped off the chivalric romance Sir Eglamour of Artois it's because I came up with it first.)
Our three memorable characters, Harold the Mouse (a brave knight who has been summoned to a special meeting with King Stronghold) and the two other ones entered Babybel Castle to much pageantry. Harold was getting the feeling that the two other characters from the previous chapter were disappearing and the story was going to move on without them, but before he could act he was being held strongly in King Stronghold's stronghold by King Stronghold, King of the Mice.
"I'm so glad you made it, brave knight," King Stronghold said. He gave Harold a pat on the back, as one might do to an old friend. "You look weary, old friend. Tell me, and please take as long as you need to elaborate, how was your trip up here? Did anything of consequence happen? Don't spare any details."
"I can't remember," Harold said. "It feels like that whole part of the story happened months ago."
"Fantastic. Not worth remembering, especially since we want to go in a different direction now." King Stronghold clapped twice and nothing happened. He clapped three times and dozens of servants sprung into action. Tables were cleared and chairs were taken away for questioning. Maps unfurled themselves. A compass and a protractor were produced.
"Six months ago," King Stronghold began, beginning to pull a thin sword from a less thin sheaf, "reports started coming in about a dark and grave danger festering in the forest north of Gouda." King Stronghold walked over to the second largest map, labeled 'Known World' - it was next to the largest map, labeled 'Unknown World' - and poked Gouda with his sword. "My initial response was to make puns about the situation not being Gouda. This prompted Prince Regent, the prince regent of Gouda, to travel here to Babybel and implore me to take action. He claimed a dark smoke was rising from the forest and that unnatural sounds were emanating from its depths."
"What terror has taken root in this forest, my king?" Harold brandished his broadsword. "Say its name and I shall vanquish it!"
"Nobody yet knows, brave knight." King Stronghold looked into the middle distance with great portent and equally great ambivalence. "I sent 100 of my finest peasants to the forest. I equipped them, at my own negligible expense, with bows, swords and a new weapon I invented that is a cross between a bow and a sword. The peasants dubbed it the bowrd, pronounced 'board', which led to accusations that the peasants were ill-equipped. This army of peasants made its way to Gouda, rested for a quarter of a fortnight, and entered the forest never to be seen or heard or tasted again."
"Good lord," Harold's ears twitched and his tragic eyes remained so, "if you sent 100 peasants I'm not sure I-"
"I'm sure you'll be able to clear this mess up. Gouda is a sixty kilomile journey, as the crow flies, and even longer if you are on foot. Off you go."
And so was Harold set on a great quest. Feeling unequal to the task, he was hesitant to leave Babybel Castle. In time, he set off on the long journey to Gouda with his feet under him and his head on his shoulders. Goodness me was the journey arduous. He passed through rivers, he passed through marshes, he passed through days, he passed passed his intended destination and had to double-back. On arriving in Gouda he caught sight of Prince Regent's sister as she caught sight of him. In that moment, they caught something else: love. She was a more beautiful mouse than the last beautiful mouse Harold had seen. He told the Prince, "I intend to marry your sister." The Prince was apoplectic. His tail whipped around and he snarled.
"You are a knight and she is a princess, or a princess regent, or at least she is in the line of succession somewhere. You'll never marry her." Prince Regent turned away and walked a few steps. Suddenly, as though in a moment or two, he whipped back around to face Harold. "It's funny you should say that though. Just the other day another brave knight came through here asking to marry my sister. I told him he could, but only if he completed an impossible task. Haven't seen him since."
"Name the task. If you are forthright, it shall be done forthwith!" Harold attempted to brandish his broadsword only to find he hadn't stopped brandishing it since he was in Babybel Castle.
"Go into the forest north of here and destroy the evil that resides there. Think on this task over dinner, just as the knight the night before did."
Harold couldn't believe his luck, but he could believe his misfortune. He now had two reasons to defeat the terror that lurked in the forest, but he questioned his ability to do so. After dinner he spoke to Prince Regent's sister, whose name was Belacrist. "Damsel," he said, "I have agreed to undertake a trial of strength and courage for your sake."
"Oh good, again." Belacrist's soft and hard features were made more so in the candlelight. "I give to you this helmet; it and its twin were pulled up from the sea by Saint Lucio Uguzo himself." She held up a rusted helmet. "It is pervious to all blows. I mean impervious. Off you go."
And so was Harold set on a great quest. Feeling unequal to the task, he was hesitant to leave Gouda. But he did. Deep into the forest went he, and deeper still until the darkness of the environment overwhelmed him. He clutched his sword and wiggled his whiskers, shaking in his boots. The shade of a demon came upon him. He said to it: "Good sir, lead me to the center of this forest, if you please. I am to do battle with whatever evil lurks there."
"I am no sir, sir," replied the demon.
And indeed it was true. The demon lit a torch and Harold could not believe his tragic eyes, even after rubbing them. It was a mouse more beautiful than the last beautiful mouse Harold had seen. "Forget the center of the forest," it said, "forget the battle, forget the evil. Come with me to a great castle where we can be wed. The church will be filled with noblemen and bells will ring. A brave knight such as yourself is deserving of such honors."
"I cannot," replied Harold. He browed his furrow. "My task compels me forward. I am bound to another."
"You are alone here, unbound, free from restraints." The demon smiled. It had a lovely set of chompers. And eyes as red as they were.
Harold hesitated. He was on the fence, with cold feet, thinking twice. He saw a future and he liked what he saw. He would shirley face a grate pearl if he continued his quest, but here was a way out.
"What of the evil in this forest?" Harold asked.
"Forget that, leave it to another brave knight," the demon said. "Follow me."
And so was Harold set on a great following. Goodness me was the following not arduous. He passed through passable streams, he passed through treacherousless terrain, he passed through minutes, he tripped over something and his helmet fell off.
Upon righting himself, he scanned for his helmet. His metal detector was broken so he had to use his eyes. There it was, but hold on a second, there it was again. He could have sworn he was only wearing one helmet, given to him by his once great and now nearly forgotten love Belacrist, but before him lay two. Identical in every way, both thoroughly rusted and both every other detail.
Much like you, Harold immediately grasped what was going on. He turned to face the demon, drawing his increasingly narrow sword. "What is going on?"
"So called knight," the demon spat at him both literally and figuratively, "you are the second to come here and the second to fail to live up to your title. You are neither brave nor virtuous."
"How dare you! I'd curse your name if I knew it."
"Evil Temptress."
Harold raised his axe, which he also had on him, and put it on Evil Temptress. He vanquished his foe with a mighty yell.
-----------
What a climactic ending! In part three of this tale we'll see: Harold reckoning with failing to be virtuous and brave; Harold finally getting to the center of the forest; the story concluding.

Gif Request Meme - A Musical of my Choice + a Villain: Artois and Orléans
↳ Requested by @fallenidol-453
Philippe Égalité: The only legitimate son of the Duc d’Orléans, a prince du sang from birth, Philippe was a very unlikely revolutionary. And yet Philippe showed a strong level of compassion for the lives of the lower class, going down a coal shaft to see the conditions faced by miners, pulling a groom of his from a river with his own hands, and providing shelter for the poor during the bitter winter of 1788-89.
He was noted for his extravagant lifestyle; a noted lover of racehorses, gambling, architecture, his various and assorted mistresses, and all things English. Despite being the richest man in France, with a truly astronomical income, he nonetheless found himself frequently in debt. That was the impetus for him to totally redesign the Palais Royal over the course of two and a half years, opening it up to shopkeepers and establishing it as a major area for counter revolutionary activity, with the police being banned from intervening. As such, an overwhelming feeling of liberty prevailed there, with people from all social classes gathering to observe the spectacles and walk along the gardens there.
There was a certain amount of hostility to be expected between the two branches of the Bourbon family, going as far back as the first Duc’s tempestuous relationship with his brother, Louis XIV. Still, the relationship between Louis XVI and Philippe gradually deteriorated over time, despite several attempts to patch things up. Orléans blamed Louis for the loss of his naval career, with the controversial Battle of Ushant in 1778 being a major breaking point in their relationship. In 1788, he spoke up at a “Royal Sitting” where Louis tried to press the Parliament into obeying his will, saying “Sire, this appears to be illegal.” Louis responded, “It is legal, because I wish it to be so.” Orléans spent the next five months in a comfortable exile at his estate, and he returned more popular than ever.
When the Estates General was called, Orléans sided with the Third Estate, taking his place with the other delegates rather than sitting with the Royal Family as his rank entitled him to. His name was consistently brought up alongside revolutionary activity, with his bust being paraded alongside Necker’s on July 12, 1789, when the rash charge of the Prince de Lambesc into the Tuilleries heightened the people’s fears over an armed crackdown of Paris. It would be in the Palais Royal where Camille Desmoulins would jump on a table and call the people to arms, and even though the exact impact of that statement’s been disputed, the fact that Palais Royal was a huge locus point for revolutionary activity never has been.
Among the royalists, it was popularly thought that Orléans was behind the entire Revolution, masterminding the Storming of the Bastille, the Women’s March to Versailles, a famine, and various and assorted other disturbances, in lieu of believing that the common people themselves were discontent. However, the sources nearest and dearest to Philippe suggest that he had no intention of seizing power, and Philippe’s own action of going and staying in England at Lafayette’s suggestion between October 1789 and July 1790, when he had a strong chance of fighting back against the charges and seizing power for himself by riding off the highest point of his popularity, strongly indicates that he had no intention of seizing the throne for himself. Overall, while he was a man of undeniable courage, the popular consensus is that he was, by nature, too passive to do it on his own, generally being very diffident to those near him such as his former mistress and longtime friend, Madame de Genlis, as well as her rival for his attention, Pierre Ambroise François Choderlos de Laclos, and generally disinterested in long-form plans, preferring to throw himself into whims. It is far more likely that, if a plan existed to make Philippe king, it came from one of those brains, as opposed to anything Philippe himself considered in any detail.
He did, however, become embittered over the increasingly chilly reception he received at Versailles, including one occasion where a courtier shouted “Do not let him touch the wine!” when he entered, with him then being spat on as he made his leave.
In the latter half of 1792, Philippe faced a bevy of problems, both personal and political, as his long-suffering wife had filed for a separation, his daughter was put on a list of émigrés and was forced to leave the country very shortly after arriving (after Madame de Genlis, who he had instructed to take her back before her name could be added, lingered for too long, causing a final breakdown in their long relationship), his popularity was rapidly fading, and he had been called, as a Deputy of the National Convention, to sit at the trial of his cousin. According to one anecdote, found in William Cooke Taylor’s Memoirs of the House of Orléans, it was in that particular maelstrom that he changed his name, as a last ditch effort to save his daughter and prove his loyalty to the Revolution, to Philippe Égalité. Many options were considered for him to not sit the trial, and there is no reason to believe, despite the long-lasting enmity that the two of them had, that Philippe, when he went to sleep the night before the trial of Louis began on December 26, that he had any idea that when it came time to give the verdict on January 14-15, he would vote “yea,” a decision that shocked the entire room, not the least Louis himself. Perhaps it was a last ditch effort to save himself, perhaps he felt pressured to do it by everyone else in the room, perhaps in that moment he truly believed that Louis’ actions merited the death penalty. It’s impossible to truly know, but in the end that one decision, more than anything else, has defined his legacy.
However, the Royalists would soon be able to find some comfort, as, on the 4th of April 1793, his son, Louis-Philippe, Duc de Chartres, defected along with General Dumouriez, and Philippe’s enemies had the ammunition they needed.
On 7 April, 1793, he was arrested and sent to Fort Saint-Jean in Marseilles, along with two of his sons. Throughout his imprisonment, Philippe kept up an optimistic front, constantly reassuring his sons, the Duc de Montpensier and the Comte de Beaujolais, on the rare occasions he was allowed to speak to them after they were separated, that everything would turn out well, even expressing optimism about his trial in Paris. Whether this was real or simply an attempt at keeping up morale will never be known, but on November 2, 1793, he was sent back to Paris, to be imprisoned in the Conciergerie. He was tried on the 6th and, at his own request not to prolong things any longer than necessary, he was executed on that same day. By all accounts, he met his death courageously, his composure only threatening to break when the cart he was in stopped in front of the Palais Royal, so that he could very clearly see the sign on it that said it was now national property. His last words were to stop the assistants at the guillotine from taking off his boots, saying “You are losing time, you can take them off at a greater leisure when I am dead.”
Unlike his royal cousins, his body was never found, and to this day, he is generally considered as one of the great villains of the Revolution in media associated with it, though none of the serious charges against him (the October Days being prime) were ever proven.
Charles X- For most of his younger years, like his older cousin, Charles’ defining quality was his wild life, which was punctuated by multiple love affairs, copious gambling and alcohol, and even more copious debts, with his brother, Louis XVI, somewhat reluctantly paying the bills. He also had a close friendship with his brother’s wife, who he shared a love of high living with, the two of them often being seen together at the theatre and balls. This close friendship was much remarked upon, with Artois being a frequent subject of the pornographic pamphlets that circulated about the queen, along with Marie Antoinette’s favorite, Madame de Polignac. In the years preceding and following the Revolution, however, the two of them gradually cooled, with their later relationship being marked by political disagreements. Charles consistently pressured his brother into more conservative stances during the meeting of the Estates General, arguing against doubling the Third Estates’ representation and conspiring to get rid of Louis’ liberal finance minister, Jacques Necker. The dismissal of the Necker would end up being one of the leading causes for the Storming of the Bastille, with Charles’ temporary personal victory being quickly eclipsed by the blaze that the little spark of Revolution had turned into. In the days immediately following the Storming of the Bastille, Artois was ordered to emigrate by his brother, along with the rest of his family.
He wouldn’t see France again for decades, going from court to court in Europe asking for help and trailed by a small army of creditors (who would become some of his most frequent companions, the avid huntsman only being able to go out riding at his estate at Holyrood on Sundays, when his creditors would be unable to pursue him), but with very little materializing, even less of which was successful, with the Battle of Quiberon being particularly disastrous to any hope of a royalist win by military might. Instead, he set up his main residence in London, with his mistress, Louise de Polastron, sister-in-law of Madame de Polignac, upon whose death he swore a vow of celibacy, the former playboy becoming sober and religious in his later years. The family briefly returned to France in May 1814, with the exile of Napoleon to Elba, however his later escape and mustering of the troops led to them leaving the city in February 1815, only able to fully establish themselves back in the country shortly after Napoleon’s defeat at Waterloo. Upon his brother, the Comte de Provence’s ascension to the throne as Louis XVIII (the space between XVI and XVIII being taken up by Charles’ young nephew, Louis-Charles, who died in prison and therefore never ruled), Charles became known as a leading member of the Ultra Royalist faction, who were, as the name suggests, “More Royalist than the king.” His brother dying without a male heir, Charles took the throne in 1824, though his highly conservative policies following his more tolerant brother’s reign made him highly unpopular with the public.
In 1830, he was forced to abdicate. His intent had been for the throne to go to his young grandson, however, it would go to Louis-Philippe, Duc d’Orléans, the son of Philippe Égalite (who would himself end up being deposed.) He spent the remainder of his life similarly to how he spent his exile, traveling from place to place, hounded by debtors.
Eventually, he would die in Austria, on 6 November 1836, 43 years to the day of his revolutionary cousin’s execution.
