Paris, France.

Somewhere under the Louvres, a shrieking cry of pain fills the night... François Villon wakes from his (supposed to be peaceful) slumber... All parts of his body is covered with a bloody sweat... As always, the only thing he can remember is his Sire's smiling face : the beautiful Helena of Troy...

The same night, at the Elyseum :

François looks worried, his Nosferatu informants reported him that Helena, the new primary target on the Camarilla red List is coming back to Europe.

After the events in Montréal Helena was in a hurry to leave the New Continent and even if François knows that it might cost him his unlife, he is pretty sure that when he will be in her presence, he wouldn't be able to fight against their Blood Ties...

That's why he decided to disappear... The Praxis of France is now empty...

With the storms surrounding every move from Helena, the Marquis (equivalent to Princes in France, but all under François Villon's authority) decided to organize a Grand Conclave :

Gabriel, Ruler of Corrèze Denis, Monitor of Caen Jah, Emmissary of Alamut, Nhetic, Baron of Marseilles Petit Reuze, Archbishop of Brussels

decided to offer Bounties for every Kindred ready to hunt the Fiend : the possibility to sire a Childe, to claim a Domain in France, of course if Helena doesn't accept to surrender, the Amaranth, even if distateful, might be sanctioned...

Learning that, Enkidu sent some of his own minions to help Helena fleeing the Camarilla...

The last news from Helena came from the North of France... Why would an ancient Greek goddess go there ? Because of two things : the Carnaval, a period lasting from January to April during which every week the streets are filled with people feasting (and sometimes drinking a lot), all disguised so differently that even Nosferatus can go unnoticed with their real faces... So much easy Blood to gorge upon !!!

And the better one is Jean Bart, an ancient Pirate from Dunkerque who became corsary in order to save the Kingdom of France from the famine... His presence is as strong and powerful as some ancient local pagan deities...
