On a late Saturday night in Quebec City, near the storied grounds of Parliament Hill, a young man dressed in medieval clothing moved through the streets with a bladed weapon, killing two people and wounding five others before being taken into custody in the early hours of Sunday. The attack, sudden and without apparent motive, transformed a familiar urban landscape into a place of grief and bewilderment. As investigators began their work, the city was left to sit with a question that violence so often leaves behind — not merely who, but why.
