Pope Gregory VII is stuck in Rome awaiting his knight in shining armor, Duke Robert Guiscard, who just returned to quell the uprisings in Apulia and Calabria. Henry IV is within reach of his life’s ambition, and Emperor Alexios is broken but not finished. And there is one place that is at the center of it all: Castel Sant’Angelo.
