The Seeds of Anarchy

The year is 1135, and England teeters on the brink of civil war. King Henry I, the charismatic and iron-fisted ruler, lies on his deathbed, leaving behind a kingdom divided. His only legitimate heir is his daughter, the Empress Matilda, but a powerful faction within the court favors her cousin, Stephen of Blois.
