They were all veiled in some way.

“Death isn’t the only option,” one dapper white-masked fellow said. “Have you considered living in the sewers of Paris and stalking a favoured tenor or baritone?”

“Or consider piracy,” a black-masked man said, one hand on his sword. “The Veiled Pirate Roberts might strike even more fear into people.”

She already felt better.

Hee, hee. This made me laugh. In a very unfunny story. Nicely done.

I love the tragicomedy in “Have you considered living in the sewers of Paris and stalking a favoured tenor or baritone?” ^^

By far the best ending for this story.
