Capítulo 229: A Good Omen

May 20th, 1801.

Napoleon sat at his desk within his office, engrossed in the contents of a letter penned by Toussaint Louverture. It had been a week since their meeting and now, he had to go back to his homeland to share the news of the Republic of France's decision over the fate of Saint-Domingue.

The letter read:

[Dear Napoleon Bonaparte,

I extend my sincere gratitude for the discussions we shared during my time in Paris. Your commitment to the principles of liberty and equality resonates with my aspirations for Saint-Domingue.

As I prepare to return, I am resolute in my purpose to foster understanding and unity among our people. Your willingness to explore autonomy for Saint-Domingue and abolish slavery has kindled hope.

I hold your trust in high regard and will endeavor to ensure our shared vision flourishes.

With respect,

Toussaint Louverture]
