Send to the players before the game :
 
 
 
  10th of November 1347, Marseilles (Provence, Holy Roman Empire)
 
  A strange curse has fallen on Marseilles in the last few days.
 
  Many shopkeepers have been found dead from a strange disease.
 
  Doctors are positive: it is a benign ague, but the population suspects that the wells have been poisoned.
 
  Fortunately, the archbishop will soon organise a mass to calm the spirits.

  10 Novembre 1347, Marseille (Provence, Saint Empire Romain Germanique)
 
  Une étrange malédiction s'est abattue sur Marseille ces derniers jours.
 
  De nombreux commerçants ont été retrouvés morts d'un étrange mal.
 
  Les médecins sont formels : il s'agit d'une fièvre de ventre bénigne, mais la population soupçonne que les puits ont été empoisonnés.
 
  Heureusement, l'archevêque va bientôt organiser une messe pour calmer les esprits.

Disclaimer : This scenario is so hard, that it's ok if the players act a bit using their 20th century knowledge. For example if theu all take Immune (disease) before the scenario, that's ok. Or if they have the reflex to order lockdowns early on.

Robert de Mandagout is on the central place with Hugues IV des Baux de Marseille
 
Hugues is wearing an elaborated red dress with their crest : A sun with a red backrgound.
 
 
: "Brave brave people of Marseille, foul rumours have been spreading lately.
 
God is and always have been blessing our sacred city, the recent fire in the cathedral is a pure accident and the culprits have been sevrely punished." / "Brave peuple de Marseille. De terribles rumeurs se sont répendu récemment. Dieu béni et a toujours béni notre chère cité. Le récent incendie dans la cathédrale n'est que pur accident les coupables ont été punis sévèrement.."
 
 
"It's the jews, we saw them !"/"c'est les juifs, je les ai vu !" shouts someone in the crowd.
 
"It's a curse"/" nous sommes maudits, dieu nous a oublié !" shouts someone else
 
 
"Your lord protector Hugues IV des Baux de Marseille and myself come before you to demonstrate that god's will is on our side and protects us." / "Votre seigneur et protecteur Hugues IV des Baux de Marseille et moi meme sont venu témoigner de l'amour de dieu et de sa miséricorde."
 
 
'''Music : Lacrimose'''
 
 
He stops and fall on his knees.
 
 
"My Lord, it is a miracle !"/"Mon seigneur, c'est un miracle !"
 
"Holy of the most holy, the angel Gabriel himself descends upon us. Yes my lords, you heard our prayers, we are not worthy of you most holy presence"/ "Par tous les saints, l'ange Gabriel lui meme nous rends visite. Oui mon seingneur avez entendu nos proières, nous ne sommes pas dignes de votre sainte présence."
 
"No, you are not Gabriel. My lord, what have we done to suffer your wrath. Sheathe your sword. No. No. Nooooo." / "Non, vous n'êtes pas Gabriel. Mon seigneur qu'avons nous fait pour mériter votre courroux. Non, ne porte pas ton épée sur nous. Non. Non. Noooon".
 
He then tries to draw a guard's sword and start attacking the lord of Marseille.
 
He yells "the destroyer angel is upon us. Good people of Marseille. Repent ! Repent !" / "L'ange exterminatteur est sur nous. Peupel de Marseille repnts toi ! Repentez vous tous !"
