Percy waved the closed fan up and down with a shaking of his "slim" wrist. "England's aristocrats sympathise with those unfortunate ex-patriots of France. The Prince of Wales has made sure the aristos feel welcome in certain social circles. It is an odd partnership, for certain, but let us not forget that many an Englishman was raised in Paris by French nannies."
"Many aristos have been saved by an English gentleman working in disguise. He is the talk of London and Paris, for no one knows who he may be! They say he sneaks into the prisons of Paris at night and whisks the innocent away before they can be executed by the French mobs calling for their heads. No one has seen his face, not even those he has saved." Percy laughed softly. "An interesting tale, is it not? Romantic and ridiculous."
