Plot Summary

It's 1215 and King John (who is a Bad King) is under pressure form the French (who he has just lost most of his Empire to!), the Scots, the Barons and the Pope. In fact he has run out of friends, if he ever had any. All apaprt from William the Marshal, the Greatest King in the World, who is a Good man and protects the King from his many enemies. Now however the Barons have got uppity, and prepared a long laundry list of grievances and trying to run John to ground to make him sign them.
