Set against the backdrop of 1491, the story follows a young man who embarks on a journey from Portugal to Ireland, only to arrive as the proclaimed heir to the English throne. However, his claim complicates the political landscape, as England is already ruled by a king. The narrative intertwines historical figures like Machiavelli and Leonardo da Vinci, offering a rich tapestry of intrigue, ambition, and the quest for power during a pivotal moment in history.
