News: Phantom Door
[The Opera Populaire is abuzz Wednesday evening when news of the opera's latest patron. A member of the French aristocracy, it is whispered, and a Vicomte at that! It isn't long before the owners make the formal announcement that the Vicomte de Chagny is, indeed, the newest patron of the Opera Populaire, and there is hope with his financial backing that the opera house will rise to the glory that it deserves.
The Vicomte is present for the announcement, a composed young man with a charming smile and a gaze that makes more than one woman weak in the knees. He talks of his family's patronage of the arts in years past, and his hope that he can continue in their stead. When asked about rumours of his impending trip north, the Vicomte dashes them aside with firm words that he hopes to find a home in Paris once more, and that he has every intention of staying for the near and immediate future. One daring woman dares to ask him if he has a lady in his life, and it is with a smile that the Vicomte informs her that while he is still single, he hopes that shall change in the future, if the young woman he fancies is willing, that is.
Further questions are pushed aside as the Vicomte and the owners of the opera house disappear behind closed doors for further discussions.]
