In a usurped kingdom , amid a war-torn and  blood-soaked Italy, Conradin's battleground is set. To reclaim his birthright the crown of Sicily,  he must tread a path paved with blood, learning that he must do whatever it takes to ascend the throne.

In the year 1266, the tale of Conradin, the last scion of an ancient imperial dynasty, unfolds. His once-great kingdom, Sicily, has been ruthlessly usurped first by his own uncle and now rests in the hands of the cunning French Count Charles. Through a treacherous plot involving the Pope, Charles managed to oust the Hohenstaufen from the Kingdom of Sicily and crowned himself as its king.

In the East, powers such as the Despotate of Epirus are keenly observing the instability in Sicily, poised to seize any advantage that may arise from the chaos. Meanwhile, the small Italian communes are caught in the political crossfire, aligning themselves with one side of the conflict or the other based on the prevailing political party in power and their vested interests. These shifting allegiances turn the Italian peninsula into a powder keg, where all-out war seems inevitable.

As the shadows of history close in around Conradin, the world watches with bated breath. Will he emerge triumphant, his name forever etched in the annals of Sicilian glory as the rightful king who defied insurmountable odds, toppling both the Pope and the usurper? Or will he, in his valiant struggle, become a tragic figure, a symbol of lost opportunities and shattered dreams? The future of Sicily hangs in the balance, and Conradin's destiny remains uncertain, poised on the precipice of history.

The day finally ended, and all the necessary preparations were made: supplies, armor, weapons, and horses were all made ready for the army to depart.

The entire morning soldiers have worked filling carts with the acquired food alongside the arrows, bolts and medical provisions, such as bandages , honey and various type of wine and plants.

On the morrow, the first to be there was Conradin, who could not contain his excitement to finally lead his soldiers once again. This two-month period fell heavily on him, monetary speaking, and if the nobles did not give 'kindly' Conradin 300,000 denarii as a way to be remitted in his court, then he would have been forced to take up a loan once again. Conradin's financial burden weighed heavily on his mind as he eagerly awaited the arrival of the nobles, including his most loyal ones.

Farewell! Pavia
