Expand for script.

  • Several days have passed since the talk with Blaisdell, and I still haven't received a progress report from him.
  • This morning, I finally receive some exciting news.
  • Blaisdell has finished his investigations, and wishes to see me tomorrow.
  • But I'm so anxious that I can't wait any longer. So I decide to head to Blaisdell's residence.


  • Blaisdell: My goodness. My most gracious Queen, why are you in such a hurry?
  • You: I wish to listen to your report right away.
  • Blaisdell: Of course. Your wish is my command.
  • Blaisdell: Your Majesty, we have caught Jeanne, and brought her back to the palace.
  • You: Really? Where is she now?
  • You: I want to talk to her myself.
  • Blaisdell: The dungeons are no place for the Queen. Besides, I have already obtained all the details, so you need not worry.
  • You: Is that so...
  • You: Then please tell me what happened. And why she has done this deed... Don't leave out anything.



  • Blaisdell: After consolidating all the clues and interrogation results, it appears that everything matches the Cardinal's account... Someone made use of him.
  • You: And Jeanne... Is she an aristocrat? Or is she merely a trickster disguised as one?
  • Blaisdell: Strangely enough, not only is Madame Valois an aristocrat, she is of noble lineage.
  • Blaisdell: Her ancestors can be traced back to the royal family in the 16th century, when the house of Valois ruled France.
  • I am startled to hear the name "Valois". Her ancestry is far nobler than a lot of the aristocrats in Versailles.
  • You: If so, I don't see why she'd frame me for the sake of money... But I don't remember offending her at any point?
  • Blaisdell: Oh, apart from her name, she is penniless. She may be descended from royalty, but she leads a life of poverty.
  • Blaisdell: According to my investigations, when she was a child, she had to beg in order to survive, and almost starved to death on the streets.
  • You: My goodness...
  • It's hard to imagine how a little girl must have spent her days in that situation...
  • Blaisdell: Later on, her youth and beauty got her married to a count, but her finances never got better.
  • You: But I thought nobility get a stipend, don't they? So how did she...?
  • Blaisdell: They have never controlled their own spending. So no matter how much money they get, they would only spend until they're broke.
  • Blaisdell gives me a look, and his smile grows deeper.
  • I know he's hinting at something, and I understand that only I am in control of my own issues. I must prove my worth.
  • You: So she came to Paris... because she's broke?
  • Blaisdell: Yes, your Majesty is wise. But before this, she already had a bad reputation, and even became an aristocrat's mistress.
  • Blaisdell: She deliberately approached the Cardinal, pretended to be your close friend, and forged a letter, all for riches and power.
  • Blaisdell: As for why she chose to frame you, it definitely wasn't personal. She simply figured that you were the most valuable target.
  • You: (Yes, all of France thinks I'm a greedy and flamboyant woman. Why would Jeanne think otherwise?)
  • Blaisdell's tone is a little sarcastic, and I suddenly get the feeling that... the person he's making fun of isn't Jeanne.
  • Her greed and "my" frivolous ways wouldn't normally cause too much trouble, but she just happens to pull this stunt right before the French revolution.
  • You: So Jeanne's greed is what has damaged my reputation and the dignity of the royal family...
  • You: If I am unable to explain this mess to the people, the royal family might fall, am I right?
  • Blaisdell: Your Majesty, a little trickster surely isn't enough to cause the ruin of an entire kingdom. There's no need to worry.
  • You: ...I truly hope so.
  • Blaisdell is unable to understand why I'm worrying so much, and I'm unwilling to explain.
  • He remains focused on his duties however, and continues reporting to me without dwelling on the subject.
  • Blaisdell: As for the female accomplice you mentioned, unfortunately... she has already been "dealt with" by Jeanne.
  • You: You mean she's dead? How could she be so ruthless... That's someone who helped her!
  • Blaisdell: When faced with riches and power, even a kind person might be possessed by a demon. What more a greedy lady?
  • You: Hmm... Well then, if you find that woman's body, please give her a good burial.
  • Blaisdell: I shall do as you say, your Majesty.
  • Blaisdell: I'm just curious... Why are you so merciful towards a mere criminal? Is there a special reason?
  • I shake my head, not knowing how to answer him.
  • I just feel that I'm somewhat responsible for her death... If not for me, her life wouldn't have ended this way.
  • Blaisdell: Your Majesty, the King has decided to compensate you by letting you decide Jeanne's fate.
  • Blaisdell: According to the law, you can only order her to be confined to a nunnery, or confiscate her possessions and exile her.
  • Blaisdell: But you can only choose one... Please select the punishment you deem most fitting.


Confine her to a nunnery

  • Perhaps she is only trying to recover all that should be hers. Perhaps she thinks she deserves more as a descendant of the House of Valois.
  • You: (Even if so, she can't just treat human lives that way, and hurt people for selfish reasons...)
  • You: To such a person, perhaps a life of simplicity and strict rules would be what she'd hate the most...
  • You: Confine her to a nunnery, so that she can reflect upon the error of her ways in front of God.
  • Blaisdell studies me for a long while, as though he is surprised by my decision. Then he smiles.
  • Blaisdell: Your Majesty is indeed merciful. You have kindly given her a chance to repent.
  • Blaisdell: I believe this must be the result of your upbringing under Queen Theresa. I shall report back to the King.


Exile her

  • So she did all these ruthless things... just to get money for her own expenditure?
  • Perhaps forcing her to leave Paris, and give up all riches and glamour would be the best way to make such a greedy woman suffer.
  • You: Confiscate her belongings and exile her...
  • Blaisdell: You are indeed merciful. I believe that the King will be proud of you.
  • Blaisdell: I should inform the King of your decision right away.
  • You: No, wait...
  • You: I'm involved in this somehow... I am somewhat responsible.
  • You: Blaisdell, take her ill-gotten riches and distribute them to the poor, or compensate those she has harmed.
  • You: Besides that, to make up for the damage to the royal family's reputation, I shall donate a portion of my jewellery to aid the poor. What do you think?
  • Blaisdell: Your Majesty is compassionate indeed. I believe this is a result of your upbringing under Queen Theresa.


  • I feel a pang of sorrow upon hearing my mother's name. I remember that she once told me to be an angel to the people of France...
  • You: (I guess "I" would be very happy to hear a compliment like that.)
  • Blaisdell: Your Majesty, please rest assured and leave everything to me.
  • I've been so worried about the results, but now I can finally heave a sigh of relief as I leave Blaisdell's residence.


  • I get into the carriage, and on the way back to Versailles, I'm so exhausted that I fall asleep...


  • A light sound jolts me awake from my dreams.
  • The carriage is still moving, and no one could have gotten on... Did I just imagine it?
  • You: (Maybe I'm just too tired...)
  • Just as I'm about to go back to sleep, a shadowy figure lands lightly in front of me.
  • You: Guards! There's someone-
  • ???: Shh! Your Majesty, I mean you no harm.
  • I press myself against the side of the carriage, staring at him warily.
  • You: Who are you? How dare you barge into my carriage!
  • ???: I heard that you're nothing like a weak iris flower, but I never thought you'd be so brave.
  • I look at the weapon at his belt, and I know I can't fight him.
  • ???: Your Majesty, please allow me to introduce myself.
  • ???: I am d'Eon, and I work for the King. Of course, if you're willing, you can call me "Madame Beaumont".
  • You: (I've never heard Auguste mention such a person. Could he be lying to me?)
  • You: All right. Can you leave now?
  • d'Eon: Your Majesty, why must you be so cold to me? It wounds my heart...
  • You: You barged into my carriage, and you expect me to talk to you in a civil manner?
  • d'Eon: Oh my, how depressing... I could have chosen some other way to meet you...
  • This cross-dressing man is just way too strange, and I just can't believe what he's saying.
  • He notices how wary I still am, and seems a little annoyed.
  • d'Eon: You still don't believe me? Oh, that's just too upsetting!
  • d'Eon: Oh yes, your Majesty! Is there anything troubling you? I can help you solve the problem!
  • You: No need, I'm doing fine.
  • Flustered, he flutters his fan.
  • d'Eon: I guess this isn't the best time after all!
  • He grabs my left hand, and swiftly kisses it.
  • d'Eon: My dear Queen, I hope to be of use to you next time!
  • As soon as the words are out of his mouth, he lightly leaps out of the carriage. My goodness, the carriage is still moving!
  • Stunned, I gaze in the direction he went, and is then startled by the door when it bangs shut.


  • When I get back to the palace, I hurry to the King to ask him about d'Eon. After a moment's hesitation, the King tells me that d'Eon is a spy and a highly skilled swordsman, and that he really is working for him.
  • I am reassured, but now I'm feeling incredibly curious about this strange cross-dressing man...
