France in 1414 was a country at war, overrun within by marauding knights and besieged from without by an ambitious English king.

England in 1414 was ruled by King Henry V, a driven monarch who was determined to regain his French lands, even if it meant war.

Lianna of France was mistress of a great castle in Normandy. Rand of England was Henry's most fearless and trusted warrior. They were fated to meet in a sunny forest glade, just as their countries were fated to meet on the battlefield of Agincourt. Their turbulent yet triumphant love story symbolized the clash of two mighty nations.
