“ Oh, so that’s how it is, isn’t it?” the footman barks with defiance. “The family chokes with fright when they hear about the kiss milady stole from our visitor, but that three of our last chambermaids were sacked and have to walk the streets of London now, no one minds at all! Is that fair? Is that how the upper class should rule over us? Is this how we will continue to let them treat us? Because I for one– ”

The county of St Maur is ruled by tradition: A job in one of the great houses of St Maur is seen as the highest aspiration for anyone who aims for anything that isn’t farming or be sent to the workhouse, and being given a seat among the upper class families writes you into the history books. Yet, even the countryside is not safe from the wind of change. Especially when there are those who wish nothing more than to usher it in and shake up the lives of all who live there.
Upper class or lower class, everyone has a stake in it. Can a life in service really be a happy one? Can a life in a golden cage really be an honest one? Everyone has to decide between following tradition or allowing the advent of modernity.

A small county in rural England, St. Maur is a quaint place where traditions are still upheld and working for one of the great houses is still seen as an enviable position. Yet, the death of the young Viscount of St Maur is not the last thing ready to shake up this town sitting comfortably in the past. Residents are aware of modernity being just around the corner and some are very eager to bring it about, even here among nobles and working men.
