It was closing in on midnight as the conspirators started to pour out of the cellar of the abandoned inn. Among the last of the stragglers was Helena Kane, a pretty young creature who talked a lot during the meetings and knew how to wield a rapier better than a socially desirable woman should have. In truth, though, she wasn't as socially desirable as her dress might suggest--as far as her life went, it was either revolution or the whorehouse, and she'd chosen revolution.
Not that she objected to sex by any means. She was just too easily bored with mundanity and routine. The ideals of her comrades had managed to permeate her skull in the past few years, but truthfully, she could care less about the plight of the poor and the tyranny of the King. She needed something to do, and if that something was conspiring to tie down the King and take off his head, then so be it.
Just another lost soul who thought her life might be more worthwhile if she spiced it up by doing terrible things.
Standing at the back of the stone chamber, she blew out the candles, but left one. The light bounced off the fiery red curls of her hair and she appeared ghostlike in the dim lighting. It was quiet now. If she didn't know better, she might have thought she was alone in the chamber.
But she did know better.
"What's it going to be tonight, eh?" She smirked.
The whole place smelled of hay and beer and burning wax and burning hair and sweat and bile and something else, an undertone, heavy, sharp, offensive.
