I knew there were problems.
You hear about it in the north sometimes. The de la Rochenoires and their treason. The scandal with the Courtney girls. The Avjan incident.
We condem them, the minority, those few isolated individuals who /dare/ betray the republique. We of course have clean hands, no secrets. No Caliban in the closet.
But it's not like that is it?
They're all rotten. Even as I write this I can smell the stench of corruption, rising like a fog, following around their laywers, their retainers, their secrets.
I joined the Gendarme to defend the Republique. Yesterday had me question for the first time what, or who, I am actually defending.
I should of stayed in the north. At least then I could do something.
All I can do here is sink beneath the surface till I end up as consumed and rotten as the rest of them.
Is that why he did it?
