Show notes

In which the tragic makings of family and kingdom are laid bare amid blindness both literal and of the heart, as loyalty and treachery intertwine beneath the storm's shadow. Here, sorrowful kings and wandering knights confront the harshness of their fates, while the restless call of war and love stirs the course of destiny.
