IntroductionA Chapter by Sherlock1Bristol, 1153 Henry DeBeck, sat upright on his horse, as a solider for as long as he
could remember and at heart a natural warrior. He had never embraced the winter
with anything but contempt. So to be in a foreign country in the heart of a
harsh winter was anything but an ideal situation. Henry's mind was weighed down this morning, but all of a sudden something harsher
than the winter's cold, this was the burning glare of Henry Plantagenet Duke of
Normandy and ruler of Anjou and Aquitaine. The Duke had come to England to take
the crown of England, he had tried 4 years ago but had failed lacking the
support of the English Baron's and had been only 16 years old and not had the experience
for a successful campaign. This time felt different to Henry DeBeck, he had known the Duke nearly all
his life and knew the determination and energy that the Duke had. The English
crown had been stole from The Duke's mother The Empress Matilda, by her cousin
Stephen. The Duke looked his friend Henry DeBeck straight into his eye and said ''
This time i will not fail, I will take the crown from this usurper Stephen,
this false king that has bought may family's Kingdom into misrule, I promise
this when i next leave this land, I will be King. © 2016 Sherlock1Reviews
