King Henry the Fifth of the House of Lancaster, the victor over the French at Agincourt, suddenly passed away, never managing to turn the tide of the military campaign on the continent in his favor. The legacy of the great... Lion of England fell to his son, a weak-bodied and weak-spirited infant. Not only was Henry the Sixth unable to rule the kingdom mired in the Hundred Years' War without the support of regents, his powerful relatives, but he was also prone to fits of madness. And now the moment has come when Regent Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York, decided that without a strong king, the country would inevitably fall. And it seems his fears are destined to come true — French troops are winning victory after victory, while rebellions flare up in English counties. So who is capable of saving the throne? Who will take on the role of England's defender?
