As the last pockets of resistance in the mountains dies down and the Carlists are as good as defeated, there is cheering in the streets, “Long live the Queen! Long live the Queen!”, but inside the prison that holds the pretender king there is much less of celebration, parliament and the queen has forbidden the execution of him, so for now he just sits there.
Eventually some come down a dark night to get him, his sentence has been chosen, permanent house arrest, he is to be stationed in a manor until his death, soldiers surrounding it with all communication watched.
