The Conspiracy - Silentium

Enjoining the evening?

Count Tenheim.

I Presume?

At your service my lord???

You may call me Scoria.

I’ve been watching you dance with young baroness

Prudence, such

A… lovely creature

Yes, unfortunately her loveliness is owned by someone rude enough not to even

appear

With her.

Even in such pleasant masquerades as tonight

Well some do not simply have the proper out bringing to attend this kind of

pleasures

Apparently so, lord Scoria.

it may be the spanish way to raise sails and let

the beauty

Wither ashore

Look at her amongst all this joy, mourning and sighing.

Wouldn’t you like to

set those sad

Longing eyes aflame again?

To have her and afterwards kiss that swanlike neck

goodnight?

I… I Beg your pardon, my lord

Do not insult me with petty morality, dear count.

I know exactly how

desperately you thirst

After her.

With how much anguish you envy that halfbreed Antracon for owning

her loyalty

If only I could open her eyes from that blindness

I think we have a way to remedy that

Dear sir.

are you suggesting that I would do the dirty deed of yours…

of god only

Knows what intentions?

My intentions.

Are merely of setting her free of that endless longing.

I’m not asking you

To do anything, but to follow your own desires.

Few words from a loyal servant

of your’s will do

Few words.

From my servant?

Just a word placed in the ear of Antracon’s crew.

He’s ship, «Providence»,

is due to

Southampton within few weeks.

When it arrives we can perhaps put one of your

servants on the

Payroll all we need is few words, like count Tenheim has…

…Slept with young baroness Prudence

Aye!

You watch your mouth gadgie.

I can’t believe it out off her

That’s the bleeding bloody honest truth.

By god.

Mind you.

She is the bleeding

fiance of the

Owner of this ship and all.

Didn’t stop the mockers or banging her sheets with

sir tenheim now did

It?

No no…

Bloody hell… young sir Antracon ain’t gonna be at all happy when he’ll hear

about it…

…I just can not believe it

Well that’s what I heard.

And the gadgie works for the count and all.

Well, we better be

Off to London sir.

If we are going to be there in decent time

No… Hickson wait… I am going to stay here at the inn for a while.

Would you arrange a

Room for me?

You’re sure sir?

Ah mean.

Right, you never kin with this stuff.

Never kin with

the ladies

Tell you that for nothing sir

No… she deserved something better… It’s all my doing.

Being away and low

breed.

All my

Doing…
