Letters To Laura // #NaNoWriMo
Francis Forestier was the gardener of the Dubois Palace, and the secret lover of the Duchess of Alvern, Laura Dubois, before the start of the revolutionary wars.
Now he is a tired general, crowned with the chaplet of undeserved glory, covered with the blood of his enemies, dying alone in a cold hospital bed.
How did he get here? How did he become the man that he now is? How many losses did he suffer while trying to reach his own goals? To achieve his own dreams?
And was it worth it in the end, to trade his merry and peaceful life for fleeting moments of honor and fame? Should him have given up his health, security and happiness for popularity and recognition?
Was it wise to trade the woman he loved for a chance to prove himself worthy of her?
