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 return of the fallen king

The Sicilian army marched with precision and determination, a formidable force under the leadership of Conradin, their young and ambitious king. At the forefront of the procession, Conradin rode atop a regal steed, his fair blonde hair flowing freely in the wind. Unlike the regal Iron Crown that often adorned his head, Conradin had chosen to forgo it on this march, allowing his golden locks to catch the sunlight.

His blue eyes, a reflection of both determination and youth, scanned the horizon ahead, locking onto the field where the fate of nations would soon be decided. Conradin's expression held a mix of confidence and anticipation, his unburdened hair symbolizing a king ready to face the challenges that lay ahead.

Without the mask of the his helmet , his features appeared more approachable, and his fair hair added an air of vulnerability that contrasted with the regal authority he commanded.
