In the midst of this chaos, you're Henry, the son of a blacksmith. With no king on the throne, Sigismund is now free to plunder Bohemia and seize its riches. Feigning good will, Sigismund travels to Bohemia and kidnaps his half-brother. His half-brother and King of Hungary, Sigismund the Red Fox, senses weakness in Wenceslas. Unlike his father, Wenceslas is a naive, self-indulgent, unambitious monarch. One of Charles' sons, Wenceslas, has inherited the crown. The death of its beloved ruler, Emperor Charles IV, has plunged the kingdom into dark times: war, corruption, and discord are tearing this jewel of the Holy Roman Empire apart. Bohemia – located in the heart of Europe, the region is rich in culture, silver, and sprawling castles.
