In the books, though, D'Artagnian has to serve 2 years in another military outfit and- perhaps ironically- the king places him in the cardinal's guards just on the advent of war. (A war, which see's our 3 musketeers and D'artagnian having lunch in no-man's land as they lay siege to an english castle. Over a bet.) permalink fedilink source parent
