national elections so fucked someone’s out to become king of the franks

I got a trial subscription to La Dépêche so that I could learn more about this and discovered several additional facts:

• The theft was discovered early in the morning by a priest
• (If a sacred/magical sword must be stolen, early morning priest-discovery is at least suitably dramatic)
• The question of when exactly the sword was taken remains open
• The mystery is compounded by the fact that the thief would have had to scale a cliff to get to the sword
• Who could have done this thing? “La question est sur toutes les lèvres” (everyone wants to know)
• “No,” says a section header mournfully, “the sword has NOT been removed for restoration; it has been STOLEN”
• The entire town is emotional about this

…WTF!
