Back in the prison, the guards where standing in the cell, looking down at the body that Aramis had left behind.
"You ever wonder who he was?"
"No…Yes. But I never asked and you better not either."
They wrapped the body up, with the mask still on, in a weighted sack and left the cell.
The prison's warden stood and watched as the guards threw the body off the cliff. As it crashed in the sea, the Warden turned and went into his office. He scrawled a single line on a royal scroll.
It read, "The unseen prisoner is dead."
Then he sealed it and handed it to a messenger. "Take this to the King."
