Cousin of Roger and Jacques who’s currently visiting Quillan. He’s a troubadour, skirt chaser and in constant conflict with Eleanor. He’s quick-tempered and saucy. He’s doesn’t hesitate arguing about religion or politics in public even in these days. He’s putting himself, and those close to him, in danger. But he’s always managed to wriggle out of it. This is particularly getting on Eleanors’ nerves because she has to be twice as cautious in front of the Dominicans. As if it wasn’t already hard enough. Though she might agree with Jacques in many things, she cannot admit that publicly.
