Since Princess Mathilde issued the order to cease all activities of the Bonaparte Faction recently at her mansion on Kusel Street, all the Bonaparte supporters in Paris halted their actions. They were like a viper lurking in the shadows, waiting for the two giants [the Proletariat and the Bourgeoisie] to determine a winner.
Once the giants decide a victor, the Bonaparte Faction will move again to seize the fruits from the winning side. By then, a weakened Paris will be unable to stop the Bonaparte Faction's steps to victory.
