The story of Anne Boleyn does not end on the scaffold. The fate of the Tudors is rewritten in blood and fire... I hear it, before I am ready. The high whistle of a sharp blade slicing through the air. Anne Boleyn: the ambitious virgin, the great whore, the queen, the revolutionary, the witch, is going to die... At that moment the world explodes in sound. I hear running and screaming, chaos around me. This is not right. I hear the voice of my killer. "Run! Run now Anne!" he whispers roughly. I rip off the blindfold. My eyes adjust, but what I see makes no sense. Maybe I am dead after all. Maybe this is hell... Anne will fight for survival and revenge in the face of the deadly plague that blights the land. Thomas Cromwell will fight for power in a dying kingdom. A tale of Anne Boleyn with an apocolyptic twist.

'Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived." In this way, the six wives of Henry VIII were remembered not for how they lived, but in the way they died. It is impossible to know exactly what they were thinking or had to go through, in having to marry this larger-than life King, so assured of his own rightness. It is impossible to know what their last thoughts were. But we can guess, and infer. Because these six women weren't simply paper-thin, flat cut-outs from hundreds of years ago; they were unique, and each had their own strength, and each had the fate to marry King Henry VIII, and dance around this large maypole. *Shorts on the six wives of Henry VIII; their lives, their deaths*

In a kingdom ruled by men, a young Spanish woman is handed over to England to be the Tudor's new toy, and eventually, the queen. This woman is Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of Henry VIII. Her journey began long before her marriage and ascension to queen, and ended long after she was replaced by the infamous Anne Boleyn. Her story is often overshadowed and forgotten, but she may be one of the most remarkable women of her time. In the royal court, the walls have ears, and the loyalties of the servants and spies determines who really rules the kingdom. Watch through the eyes of one of Catherine's most trusted maidservants and whisperers, and observe the glamorous world of Catherine of Aragon and her downfall at the hands of lust and love. HISTORICAL DISCLAIMER-- This story is backed by history, though there are many characters of my own imagination. The four maidservants are characters that I created, however, places, events, and many other things are true. If you see an error, ask me about it and I will tell you if it was meant to be that way or not.
