Summary
Pierre-Alexandre de Laurenac is the second son of a count. He is a deeply religious man with a head for figures and a deft touch with a paintbrush, and a member of the Cardinal’s Guard. He is also possibly the worst swordsman in all of Paris.
Jean-Yves Janvier is a son-of-nobody musketeer nine years his senior, on furlough due to injury. He might just be the best swordsman in all of France.
