"The Traitors" by E. Phillips Oppenheim is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set against a backdrop of national strife and political upheaval, the story revolves around the fate of a troubled European state, Theos, as its people rally against betrayal and seek a leader to restore their dignity and sovereignty. The main character, Nicholas of Reist, is confronted with the urgent call of his people, who are desperate for guidance and stability amidst threats from traitors and foreign enemies. The opening of the story introduces a critical moment of unrest in Theos, where Nicholas and his sister, Marie, engage in a tense dialogue sparked by the cries of an angry mob calling for justice against the traitor Metzger. Marie passionately insists that Nicholas should take his rightful place as a leader and rally the people. Though he is initially hesitant, he is galvanized by the voices of the crowd. As tensions escalate, Nicholas knows he must take action but struggles with the implications of leadership in a modern, republic system that conflicts with his noble roots. Ultimately, he speaks to the gathering crowd with fervor, declaring his disdain for the Republic and hinting at the restoration of a monarchy, setting the stage for a saga filled with political intrigue, personal sacrifice, and the pursuit of a tumultuous destiny.
