Culculine is a character of Uchronic Paris, a practitioner of the oldest profession in the world, fond of revelry and well-earned francs. She was the victim of a temporal attack that led her to hire a Security Manager and carry a shotgun under her skirts. She considers Claude Nauge for the security position.
The attack
She was interviewed as a victim of the temporal attack.
- The attackers were two big men, one without a nose and one a giant. They tied her with silk ropes, beat her brutally on torso and limbs, and stabbed her specifically on the buttocks and inner thighs, apparently to humiliate her or to search for something specific.
- They said: “Les robamos años” (“We stole years from you”), a literal theft of time.
- She woke a week after the attack, a gap of seven lost days, confirming the presence of temporal magic.
- Their knives bore a symbol, a mark of a cult or organization.
Aftermath
She carries a shotgun under her skirts, looks for a “security manager” (Claude is a potential candidate), spat in rage during the conversation, and is determined to take revenge. A letter to Mony is mentioned: “Mi bello rumano…” (“My handsome Romanian…”), identity revealed.
