From the top of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame, Stryga the gargoyle watches as French citizens take the streets to fight for human rights and equal representation. The French people are determined to dismantle the monarchy and will stop at nothing to accomplish their mission for freedom. Unbothered by the unrest, King Louis XVI and Queen Marie-Antoinette continue to ignore the conflict, completely underestimating the power inherent in the will of the people. This is Stryga's account of the Revolution of 1789 and the downfall of the French monarchy.
