Lorraine plans to annex the border kingdoms of Navarre, Aragon and Catalonia as the opening move for an invasion of Cordova. The rulers of Aragon and Catalonia eagerly comply, but Navarre refuses.

Genevieve shows Julien a note she found the night before: it links Lorraine’s family with the Merovingian kings. If true, it implies Lorraine has a legitimate claim to the throne of France.

A symbol on the reverse of the note leads Julien and Calvet to a group of sorcerers operating out of the catacombs beneath Paris. Have finally stumbled on the remnants of the Knights Templar?
