The tensions are rising between the nations of England and France by the year 1334. A war was incoming or should one say, 'wars', a series of destructive wars, separated by tense intervals of truce and by dishonest and impermanent treaties of peace. This war successively drew its neighboring nations of Scotland, Germany, Italy, and Spain into itself. The Hundred Years War, a legend in itself, began in the 1330s and ended only with the expulsion of the English from the French Mainland in the mid-fifteenth century. The French Victory laid the foundations of France's national consciousness, even while destroying the prosperity and pre-eminence that the nation had once enjoyed. Whereas in England, it brought intense effort and suffering, a powerful tide of patriotism, a great fortune only to be succeeded by bankruptcy, disintegration, and an utter defeat. Would the tale remain the same if an insignificant sickly Plantagenet boy, residing in Norwich Castle, suddenly awakens healthy the next morning from his own deathbed? The release schedule for "Scion of The Plantagenets" includes releases every two days for the first 20 chapters, followed by twice-weekly updates, all at 21:00 IST. Chapter Length: 1800-2300 words.
