Wow, this is amazing. And yeah, I guess I can see how all of this would make Richelieu, well, exceptional. Especially which Armand witnesses and never forgets as an education in what can happen to even the most powerful man of the realm. , holy cow.
Concini and his wife Leonora (who started out as Marie de' Medici's dwarf)

Also, I super love how Madame de Combalet becomes an important character/plot point! :D Go Madame de Combalet!
