Plot Overview[]
With the Queen dead Louis aims for an alliance with Spain by marrying Philippe's daughter Marie-Louise to its King, but needs Papal approval. This involves a purge of Protestantism which is ill-received by several courtiers. Meanwhile Philippe confronts his brother with the news that he has identified the man in the iron mask whilst there are suspicions that the Queen was murdered. Fabien Marchal sought out for answers based on evidence they found on a potential brother Philippe and Louis have. It was known that he was a part of the plot against the late kings life and colluded with Cardinal Richelieu. A man named Robiquet did reveal to Felipe and Marchal that the late King had a mistress who gave birth to his bastard son.
