Plot

When Issak and Prince Heinrich finally locate Elector Palatine Frederick V with the remnants of his shattered army, they find him a broken man.

Issak and Heinrich depart with the army to confront the enemy, while Zetta stays back to watch over Frederick V. She accompanies him when he insists on consulting a theologian in a nearby town, traveling in disguise to avoid attracting attention. But ill news involving Prince Heinrich and Issak soon reaches them on the road…
