The Golden Dog
Authorship not stated
Quebec builds its walls at sunrise, habitants hauling earth above a river still under mist. You play Amelie, up from Tilly with your aunt and her tenants, thanking the families while the governor admits France sends promises and the Intendant's palace glitters below. Then a courier climbs from the lower town with dispatches from the western posts, and you know the seal before anyone breaks it — Pierre Philibert serves where it was stamped.
