nd</sup> birthday which she cherished. But things took a dark turn when French revolutionaries stormed their house and kidnapped Camille and her parents. They were taken to “Place De La Révolution”, where Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette had been executed a year earlier. They threw Camille to the street because "She was just a kid" and took the parents to be executed. Camille did not yet understand what was happening. Some kids ran up to Camille and started kicking her, calling her "Stupid Noble" and similar stuff. The parents were brought up to the guillotine, The father was the first one to be executed. When Camille saw her father get decapitated while smiling at her was life-scarring, something she would never forget. Her mother''s turn was up. Camille ran towards the guillotine the best she could, She couldn''t lose both her parents on the same day, right? That''s want she wanted to believe but Life had a different thing in mind. Camille had miraculously almost reached the guillotine and reached her hand out to save her mother. Right at that moment the executioner dropped the rope. Her mother died and her head fell in front of her. The different thing was that the executioner now took up the head and showed it to the whole crowd, The whole crowd cheered in happiness. How could they be happy? Camille thought in her head. This whole thing would later be known as the Reign of Terror led by Robespierre, where around 40.000 people would be killed in panic because the first coalition had just begun. The thing ended in 1794 when Robespierre himself got executed by a guillotine. But Camille''s unhappiness didn''t end there. After everything Camille had lost everything and lived on the street for a couple of months, stealing and doing petty crimes to survive. She was living for the sake of living. That all changed when a "peasant" family took her home and adopted her. For the first time she saw hope again. She would enjoy many years with this happy family until a couple of months ago when the father requested to talk with Camille about something. They had decided to marry Camille away to earn a lot of money. Camille found out that the real intention of them adopting her that she could be married away for a lot of money because she was a noble in blood. Camille decided to run away a couple of days later after meeting Karl and his family. She ran from her house and onto the streets again with only the doll she''d had for 15 years of her life. A couple of days later she saw Napoleon''s army march back after a victory in battle. She had nothing so she decided to join the army to protect the country that had taken everything from her.
After hearing this I was determined to save Camille.
It seemed as though this Karl guy came from a pretty powerful family.

"Come on, I''ll escort you to your room" I said
Camille opened her mouth to say something but I held my arm in front of her to say that I''ll handle it.
