It is Christmas 1183 in Chinon, Henry II of England's castle. Henry's wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine has just arrived, Henry having let her out for Christmas though he has had her imprisoned since 1173. This sets up the gamesmanship between Henry, Eleanor, and their three surviving sons - Richard, Geoffrey, and John. They are joined by the King of France, Philip II. Also involved is Alais, his half-sister, who has been at court since she was betrothed to Richard at age eight, but has since become Henry's mistress. Let the festivities begin.
