'The year is 1286 and Scotland is in the grip of one of the worst winters in living memory.  Some believe the Day of Judgement has come.  The King of Scotland is murdered by one of his squires, a deed premeditated by his own brother-in-law, the King of England, a thousand miles away in France.  The Prophecy of Merlin has decreed that only when the four relics of Britain have been gathered will one man rule a united kingdom, and Edward I is determined to fulfill it.  The murder of Scotland's king is thus just the first in a chain of events that will alter the face of Britain forever.  But all is not destined to go Edward's way.  Out of the ashes of war, through blood feuds and divided loyalties, a young squire will rise to defy England's greatest king.  His name is Robert the Bruce.'
