Louis: From King to Flying Head, All It Took Was One Slash

Louis XVI was beheaded.

But he didn't die. His head flew through the air. It could ram, bite, and fly back to him on its own.

While others wielded swords and guns, he wielded his own head.

"You cut off my head, but gave me a simpler way to live: using myself as a battering ram."

From today on, my name is Louis the Head. One head, thirty-two teeth, and a coat owed to a widow.

The old world of France is waiting to be smashed to pieces.
