Check out what happened in Marguerite & Julien!
As whispers of scandalous rumors began to circulate among the orphanage's young residents, one caretaker decided to share a tale of forbidden love that would haunt the hearts of its protagonists for years to come. It was the story of Julien (character) and Marguerite de Ravalet, siblings whose childhood bond had grown into an all-consuming passion.
As children, they had shared a tender connection, their devotion to each other nurtured by the innocence of youth. But when Julien intervened to save Marguerite from a riding accident, their uncle's unease about the siblings' relationship was palpable. He advised their father, Jean, to dispatch both brothers to distant lands, citing Marguerite's perceived distraction from her studies as the reason.
Six years would pass before the brothers returned, during which time Marguerite remained resolute in her refusal to marry, choosing instead to spend her days alone and contemplative. Upon Julien's return, she was overjoyed by their reunion, but their parents soon arranged for her betrothal to Marigny, a kind-hearted suitor who just so happened to be crippled.
As the wedding preparations unfolded, Marguerite found herself increasingly disinterested in Marigny, while Julien's jealousy simmered just below the surface. The tension culminated during dinner with Marigny, when Julien excused himself, leaving Marguerite and him alone for the first time since their childhood. The air was thick with unspoken desire as they struggled to resist the pull of their forbidden love.
As the days turned into weeks, their parents discovered them in a compromising position, sparking a chain reaction that would lead to Marigny's cancellation of the engagement. Marguerite, driven by her emotions, confessed her feelings to Julien, only to be rebuffed as he fled from her kiss.
In a desperate attempt to escape her unhappy marriage to Lefevbre, a wealthy tax collector, Marguerite turned to Julien for comfort and solace. But when she found herself trapped in a loveless union, marked by physical abuse at the hands of her husband, it was Julien who came to her rescue, beating Lefevbre and freeing Marguerite from her torment.
That same fateful night, as they lay together for the first time, their passion ignited like a wildfire, burning away the moral constraints that had long held them back. And so, with their parents none the wiser, Julien and Marguerite fled together, pursued by the authorities who would eventually declare them outlaws, accused of incest and adultery.
The whispers of scandalous rumors had come full circle, as the siblings' love became the stuff of legend, a testament to the all-consuming power of passion that could never be contained.
As they finally arrive in Barfleur after an arduous journey, Marguerite (character not specified) is shocked to discover she has become pregnant. In a desperate attempt to conceal her true identity, she dons masculine attire, only to have their presence betrayed by an anonymous tip. Before they can secure passage on a ship bound for England, they are apprehended by the authorities.
During the ensuing trial, both Julien (character not specified) and Marguerite vehemently deny the charges leveled against them, insisting that they fled to escape the horrors of Marguerite's abusive marriage. Their father, desperate to spare his children, petitions King Henri IV for mercy, but the monarch refuses to grant clemency due to the perceived incestuous nature of their relationship.
Meanwhile, Marguerite gives birth to a son, who is subsequently placed in the care of a nunnery. At the trial's conclusion, Julien and Marguerite are found guilty and sentenced to death by beheading. As the executioner's axe looms closer, Marguerite pleads for her brother's life to be spared, her cries of innocence falling on deaf ears.
The following day, Julien and Marguerite arrive at Place de Grève for their scheduled executions. After Julien meets his end, Marguerite succumbs to the shock, only to meet her own demise a moment later. In the aftermath of the execution, the once-thriving Château is abandoned, leaving behind only memories of the doomed lovers.
As the dust settles, Marguerite's father and brother conspire to spirit the infant away from the nunnery. The nun entrusted with the child's care reveals that Marguerite had bestowed upon him her brother's name prior to her untimely passing. With the baby in tow, the de Ravalet family departs, their once-proud Château reduced to a haunting relic of tragic love.
