In Chapter 06, Eleanor, feeling betrayed, finds a way to strike the Duke a terrible blow, only to find herself fleeing his terrible retribution. In this episode everything changes . . .
The border between Wales and England during the reign of Henry II was continuously at war. The king awarded lands to the warriors who could hold territory, allowing them a place in his court when they proved their worth in battle. The men who rule these lands were hard enough to withstand the raids, the long winters, the endless infighting. In this episode Eleanor learns what holding on to power in these fierce lands requires. In settling a score with the Duke, she may cost many innocents their lives. If she does, is she any better than the man she loathes?
