You can do that kind of thing on a private island like La Rocaille.

Edmée de Rocaille had been his friend since childhood.

But David de Rocaille had begun to despair, and it showed in his face.

David de Rocaille did pause then, and I think for an instant their eyes met across the crowded space.

De Rocaille was a man in his prime, his strength not yet faded, fighting with nothing to lose.

Slowly, ever so slowly, the tide began to turn against David de Rocaille.

There were enough dissenters left to raid La Rocaille, even without leaders.
