The story unfolds in 1688, marked by the birth of a Prince of Wales that sparks a familial conflict and a revolution. King James II's push for Catholicism creates rifts with his Protestant daughters, Mary and Anne. Labeled as "ungrateful," they ultimately seize their father's crown, challenging the legitimacy of their half-brother's claim to the throne. This historical drama explores themes of power, loyalty, and the complexities of family dynamics in a tumultuous political landscape.
