In a shocking scene, a mob under the command of Etienne Marcel breached the Royal palace, killing several of the guards and reaching the throne room during a royal gathering of the court. However, what initially was considered a coup attempt was all but a gesture to demonstrate the power Etienne Marcel wields. Instead of taking the King captive, Marcel instead ordered the murder of two Marshals, Murdered Marshal 1 and Murdered Marshal 2 before safely retreating into the mob. While Ruler has since sent his family away from Paris, the actions of the Provost cannot remain unanswered. While the Provost display earlier was a symbol of power and confidence, he has since lost great support amongst members of the Nobility who previously were sympathetic to his cause when he originally proposed the Great Ordinance with the execution of noble blood.

BEtienne Marcel and his supporters must be handled now.
